We know music is very important in our daily life.Today most stores，restaurants and other places play music.Do you notice music played at any of those places when you go somewhere？You might even hear music on a farm or in an office.
Scientists believe that music influences the way people behave.They think that the sound of Western classical music makes people feel richer.When a restaurant plays classical music，people would spend more money on food and drinks.When the restaurant plays modern music，people would spend less money.Without music，people would spend even less.
Scientists also believe that loud and fast music makes people eat faster.Some restaurants play fast music during their busy hours.This makes people eat faster and leave quickly.Restaurants can make more money in this way.
Some scientists think that music makes you think and learn better.They say that music helps students to be more active.It_is_true_that_people_learn_better_when_they_are_relaxed. And listening to music can help you relax.

Ⅱ.阅读理解【主题：人与社会 歌剧《红楼梦》】
You must have read or heard of the love story between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu from the classic Chinese novel A Dream of Red Mansions(《红楼梦》)．But can you imagine the two singing opera(歌剧) in English
Recently，the novel has been made into an English language opera.After being performed in San Francisco，US，the performance came to Beijing，Changsha and Wuhan.It is welcomed by audiences(观众) at home and abroad.
Many of the opera's creators have backgrounds(背景) in both Chinese and American cultures.Their understanding of both cultures helped them to change a Chinese classic into a foreign language opera.
The opera writer David Henry Huang cut down the number of characters to just seven.Huang，a Chinese American，focused on the love story between Jia and Lin instead of the rise and fall of the Jia family and tried to write a heart broken tragedy(悲剧) that everyone would understand.
The art director Timmy Yip tried to help foreign people understand the characters using costumes(服装) and stage settings(布景)．He compared Lin to water and gave her a light green costume.When Lin shows up on stage，there is usually water around her on the stage.
It isn't the first time that they have made an opera adapted(改编) from Chinese literature.The creators consider it to be a meaningful job to introduce a Chinese classic to Western audiences，spreading Chinese culture to the world.They are happy to have made a contribution to the land where their parents were born.
1．The opera was ________.
A．sung in Chinese
B．first performed in San Francisco
C．written by Timmy Yip
D．performed in many languages答案：B
2．According to the passage，we can infer that ________.
A．it's easy for the creators to make the opera
B．there may be more operas adapted from Western literature
C．the creators feel proud to introduce Chinese culture to Westerners
D．the creators made an opera adapted from Chinese literature for the second time答案：C
3．The best title of the passage is ________.
A．the Rise and Fall of the Jia Family
B．the Opera of A Dream of Red Mansions
C．Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu Sing Foreign Opera

Ⅱ.阅读理解【主题：人与社会 歌剧《红楼梦》】
You must have read or heard of the love story between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu from the classic Chinese novel A Dream of Red Mansions(《红楼梦》)．But can you imagine the two singing opera(歌剧) in English
Recently，the novel has been made into an English language opera.After being performed in San Francisco，US，the performance came to Beijing，Changsha and Wuhan.It is welcomed by audiences(观众) at home and abroad.
Many of the opera's creators have backgrounds(背景) in both Chinese and American cultures.Their understanding of both cultures helped them to change a Chinese classic into a foreign language opera.
The opera writer David Henry Huang cut down the number of characters to just seven.Huang，a Chinese American，focused on the love story between Jia and Lin instead of the rise and fall of the Jia family and tried to write a heart broken tragedy(悲剧) that everyone would understand.
The art director Timmy Yip tried to help foreign people understand the characters using costumes(服装) and stage settings(布景)．He compared Lin to water and gave her a light green costume.When Lin shows up on stage，there is usually water around her on the stage.
It isn't the first time that they have made an opera adapted(改编) from Chinese literature.The creators consider it to be a meaningful job to introduce a Chinese classic to Western audiences，spreading Chinese culture to the world.They are happy to have made a contribution to the land where their parents were born.
1．The opera was ________.
A．sung in Chinese
B．first performed in San Francisco
C．written by Timmy Yip
D．performed in many languages
2．According to the passage，we can infer that ________.
A．it's easy for the creators to make the opera
B．there may be more operas adapted from Western literature
C．the creators feel proud to introduce Chinese culture to Westerners
D．the creators made an opera adapted from Chinese literature for the second time
3．The best title of the passage is ________.
A．the Rise and Fall of the Jia Family
B．the Opera of A Dream of Red Mansions
C．Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu Sing Foreign Opera
D．the Love Story Between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu
