九、阅读理解
A
They say music is universal (普遍存在的), and it seems to be true since wherever we go, we see people listening, playing or dancing to it. But according to a study published in the Journal Current Biology, music doesn’t speak to everyone. There is a condition called “musical anhedonia”. They say that those who have this condition lack (缺乏) the ability to experience pleasure from music.
For the study, 30 people listened to the same, mostly classical music pieces. They were then asked to complete a questionnaire on how they felt about the music. According to the researchers, most of the people in the study got pleasure from the music. They had a quicker heartbeat and sweated more. However, a small number had very little and even no pleasant feeling while they listened. These people had none or very few of the physical signs that the others in the study experienced.
The researchers say that this means people have different abilities to enjoy music and that “there are people who specifically can’t enjoy music at all”, study author Josep Marco-Pallres of the University of Barcelona in Spain told Live Science.
To study the condition further, another group of scientists, at Columbia University, US, researched brain activities. They found that the key is the blood flow (血流量) to the “reward (奖励) system” in the brain, and it will produce pleasure chemical things for people.
People who got less pleasure from music had lower blood flow to the “reward system” when listening to music. As a result, those people get less pleasure from music.
If the research is correct, according to National Public Radio, there are simply people who just don’t get music. They may get pleasure from many things, but a good song isn’t one of them.
1. What do we know about people with “musical anhedonia”
A. They usually avoid listening to music.
B. They like listening to certain types of music.
C. They believe music is the most popular with them.
D. They can’t feel the pleasure that music brings to others.
2. What was the purpose of the study
A. To see whether music works in the same way for all people.
B. To understand the meanings of different music.
C. To learn what music people love most.
D. To find out how music influences people’s life.
3. What does the underlined word “it” in the passage refer to
A. the condition B. the brain C. the key D. the blood flow to the “reward system”
4. This passage is most probably from the column (栏目) of ________ in a magazine.
A. Sports B. Science C. Health D. Business
B 根据短文内容,将下面选项还原到文中空白处,使短文完整。 (每个选项只能用一次,有一项是多余的)
Music plays an important role in our culture. It is good for children of all ages in many ways. Children spend more time at home than any other place, so it’s important for parents to create a musical environment at home. 5
Fill your home with music. Whenever possible, have music playing in the home. 6 Play music — any and all music.
Actively listen to music. While having music playing in the background is very helpful, it is also important for your child to attend to and interact(相互影响) with music. You can do this by moving your baby’s hands and legs while listening to the music.
Singing together is an excellent way to help your child enjoy music. 7 You can still sing simple songs. As with most things concerning young children, it is important to repeat(重复). Singing a small number of songs will help your child learn basic rhythms(节奏).
8 The ability to find and move to the beat of music is important to all future musical ability. So dance with your child.
Make music together. 9 If you play an instrument, you might play along with them as they sing. Any combination in any kind of music will send a strong message to your children about the shared joy of making music.
A. Children can hear music playing somewhere.
B. It doesn’t matter how well you sing as a parent.
C. It really doesn’t matter what type of music.
D. Start by adding these simple steps into your daily life.
E. Dancing is another fun way to encourage children to learn about music.
F. As your children get older, making music with them can have a great influence.

九、阅读理解
A
They say music is universal (普遍存在的), and it seems to be true since wherever we go, we see people listening, playing or dancing to it. But according to a study published in the Journal Current Biology, music doesn’t speak to everyone. There is a condition called “musical anhedonia”. They say that those who have this condition lack (缺乏) the ability to experience pleasure from music.
For the study, 30 people listened to the same, mostly classical music pieces. They were then asked to complete a questionnaire on how they felt about the music. According to the researchers, most of the people in the study got pleasure from the music. They had a quicker heartbeat and sweated more. However, a small number had very little and even no pleasant feeling while they listened. These people had none or very few of the physical signs that the others in the study experienced.
The researchers say that this means people have different abilities to enjoy music and that “there are people who specifically can’t enjoy music at all”, study author Josep Marco-Pallres of the University of Barcelona in Spain told Live Science.
To study the condition further, another group of scientists, at Columbia University, US, researched brain activities. They found that the key is the blood flow (血流量) to the “reward (奖励) system” in the brain, and it will produce pleasure chemical things for people.
People who got less pleasure from music had lower blood flow to the “reward system” when listening to music. As a result, those people get less pleasure from music.
If the research is correct, according to National Public Radio, there are simply people who just don’t get music. They may get pleasure from many things, but a good song isn’t one of them.
1. What do we know about people with “musical anhedonia”
A. They usually avoid listening to music.
B. They like listening to certain types of music.
C. They believe music is the most popular with them.
D. They can’t feel the pleasure that music brings to others.
2. What was the purpose of the study
A. To see whether music works in the same way for all people.
B. To understand the meanings of different music.
C. To learn what music people love most.
D. To find out how music influences people’s life.
3. What does the underlined word “it” in the passage refer to
A. the condition B. the brain C. the key D. the blood flow to the “reward system”
4. This passage is most probably from the column (栏目) of ________ in a magazine.
A. Sports B. Science C. Health D. Business
【答案】1. D 2. A 3. D 4. B
【解析】本文介绍了一项研究表明音乐快感缺失的人不能从音乐中体会快乐,文章具体介绍了研究过程和原因。
1. 细节理解题。根据第一段“They say that those who have this condition lack the ability to experience pleasure from music.”可知,患有音乐缺乏症的人不能从音乐中感受快乐。故选D。
2. 推理判断题。根据第二段“According to the researchers, most of the people in the study got pleasure from the music. ... However, a small number had very little and even no pleasant feeling while they listened.”可知,研究中的大多数人都从音乐中获得了快乐,有一小部分人在听音乐的时候几乎没有什么愉快的感觉;由此推知研究是为了看看音乐是否对所有人都有同样的作用。故选A。
3. 词句猜测题。根据第四段“They found that the key is the blood flowto the ‘reward system’ in the brain, and it will produce pleasure chemical things for people.”他们发现这个关键之处是流向大脑奖励系统的血液,然后它将产生给人们带来快乐的化学物质;所以“it”指代流向大脑奖励系统的血液。故选D。
4. 最佳标题题。通读全文可知,本文介绍了一项研究表明音乐快感缺失的人不能从音乐中体会快乐,文章具体介绍了研究过程和原因,与科学相关。故选B。
B 根据短文内容,将下面选项还原到文中空白处,使短文完整。 (每个选项只能用一次,有一项是多余的)
