A
If you ever have the desire to break out into song—in the shower, in the car, maybe at your neighbor's karaoke night—you should embrace it whole-heartedly. This ancient art can not only make you feel good, it can also improve your well-being, reduce your feelings of pain, and even extend your life.
Using your voice to sing, rather than simply carry out a conversation, offers unique benefits because singing affects our bodies. Also, studies link singing with a lower heart rate, decreased blood pressure and reduced stress according to Patricia Preston Roberts, a music therapist (治疗专家).(__1__)
Singing, particularly in a group, seems to benefit the elderly particularly well. As part of a three-year study examining how singing affects the health of those aged fifty-five and older, a Senior Singers Chorus was formed by the Levine School of Music in Washington.D.C. The seniors involved in the chorus, as well as seniors in two separate arts groups about writing and painting, showed significant health improvements compared to those in the control groups (对照组). Obviously, the arts groups reported thirty fewer doctors' visit, fewer eyesight problems, less depression, and less need for medication. (__2__)
Even lead researcher Dr. Gene D. Coben, director of the Center on Aging at George Washington University, was surprised at how big an effect the seniors' arts participation had on their health. Coben said，“The average age of all the subjects was eighty. This is higher than life expectancy. So, if an effect were to be achieved, one would ordinarily expect to see less decline compared to the control group. The fact that there was so much improvement in many areas was the surprising factor.” (__3__) The seniors also noticed health improvements and they reported feeling better both in daily life and while singing.
The part of the brain that works with speech is different from the part that processes music. “People seem to enjoy doing something jointly with other people. There are a lot of facts that being socially involved is good for people with dementia (老年痴呆)，” Ballard said.
The arts are showing up as a treatment tool in hospitals across the country. (__4__) If you are thinking of volunteering, singing at a hospital may be a good choice—not only for the patients, but also for yourself.
1．Why was Coben surprised at the result of the study？(　　)
A．The study was not expensive as expected.
B．Arts acted as a treatment tool in hospitals.
C．People's health in the arts group improved greatly.
D．The seniors themselves noticed health
improvements.
2．What is the author's attitude towards arts？(　　)
A．Doubtful. B．Positive.
C．Negative. D．Worried.
3．Where should the following sentence be put？(　　)
“She uses songs to help patients who suffer from a variety of problems.”
A．(1) B．(2)
C．(3) D．(4)
4．What would be the best title for the passage？(　　)
A．How to Avoid Getting Dementia
B．How Seniors Live a Healthy Life
C．How to Keep Our Brains Healthy
D．How Singing Improves Your Health
B
I was about 5 when I first heard the word “Greenland”， and my interest grew from there. Finally, after decades, I decided to go.
When I finally arrived, the place, at first glance, was clearly misnamed: The east coast of Greenland was an expanse of ice and snow, with no sign of human habitation.
One of my purposes of going to Greenland was to make contact with some native Greenlanders. I didn't know I would achieve this, but success came in an unexpected way.
When I arrived at the Illunnguujuk Hotel, where I had reserved a bed，a young couple and their baby were out front, enjoying the sun and unusual warmth. Greenlanders speak their own Inuit language and learn Danish in school, and many also speak English well. The young woman, however, was not one of these. Her English turned out to be anticlimactic．
When I identified myself, her eyes widened. Another traveller had arrived earlier and, mistaking him for me, they had given him my bed. There was no more space in the hotel. “But don't worry，” she said, as she threw herself into cleaning a tiny house the family owned. “This is for you，” she said. And as if that weren't, enough, she invited me to eat supper with her family. That evening I sat down to a dinner of fresh fish with a loving, happy native family.
When I first set foot in Greenland I found myself all but shocked by the emptiness, the vastness, and the silence. I had decided that I would probably never return. And then I was taken into this Greenlandic home. I can now say that even cold, empty, and silent scenery is worth visiting, so long as one has a warm and welcoming place to go to.
5．What may be the author's original imagination about Greenland？(　　)
A．Dense population.
B．Incredible silence.
C．Amazing vastness.
D．Awful weather.
6．What does the underlined word “anticlimactic” in Paragraph 4 mean？(　　)
A．Simple. B．Modern.
C．Outstanding. D．Disappointing.
7．The author lost his bed in the hotel because of ________．(　　)
A．the poor condition B．the high price
C．a wrong address D．a misunderstanding
8．What would be the best title for the passage？(　　)
A．A Guidebook for Greenland
B．A Cold and Warm Greenland
C．A Terrible Experience in a Hotel
D．A Childhood Dream to Come True
