Not Quite the Same
When most people want to see what they look like, they look in a mirror. I don’t need a minor to see myself, though. I just look at my twin sister, Sarita.
Sarita and I have always worn out hair the same way---long and straight. We have the same dark eyes and big smile, and we both have one crooked tooth on the right. We both love the color green, hate eating fish, and think mayonnaise is disgusting. We play the violin, and every year we compete with each other for the position(位置) of the first violin in the school orchestra(管弦乐队).
In some ways, however, were totally different. Sarita always wears funky hats, which I think is really weird(怪诞的). But she thinks its strange that I like jazz music. Some people say that our biggest difference is that Sarita is in a wheelchair(轮椅). She was in a car accident when she was very young, and her spine were badly injured(受伤). To me, however, the real difference between us is that Sarita has courage(勇气) and determination(决心). She has never let being in a wheelchair slow her down, and she almost never angry or unhappy about what happened to her. So when I look in the minor, I see myself---Celia---but I also see Sarita, a better version of me. She’s the me I try to be.
10. What is the passage mostly about?
A. how twins compete B. how Sarita was injured
C. how the twins are similar and different
11. How are Celia and Sarita similar?
A. They both wear funky hats. B. They both play violin.
C. They both love eating fish.
12. Which one is a difference between the twins?

B. Celia has shorter hair.
C. Sarita has a bigger smile.
13. Celia wants to be like Sarita because she_____.
A. admires Sarita’s attitude（态度）
B. thinks Sarita is prettier
C. wants to be a better violinist
14. Which of the following statement is TRUE?
A. Sarita thinks mayonnaise is disgusting.
B. Celia has one crooked tooth on the left.
C. Sarita is always angry and unhappy.
B
Everyone experiences bad moods(心情) now and then, some more than others. But help may be on the way. In recent studies, scientists have found that music can improve people’s moods. One study made by the University of Maryland showed that listening to a kind of classical music called baroque helped improve the moods of medical workers who study images of people’s organs and bones. It also helped the medical workers feel greater satisfaction(满意) with their work.
But not only classical music helps people feel better. In fact, a Penn State University study of college students showed that any kind of music the students listened to help produce more positive emotions(情绪), such as joy(喜悦), affection, and calm(镇静).
How can you help yourself with music? Try a music-listening diary, as did the students in the Penn State study. Before you listen to music, record how you are feeling. Then get your radio, CD player, or MP3 player and turn on your favorite kind of music. The college students most often listened to rock music, but you can choose any kind. Next, do whatever activity you would normally do while listening to music. For example, the college participants(参与者)listened and how you feel now. Keep the diary for a couple of weeks, and find out if music really does make a difference.
15. The writer describes the University of Maryland study so that readers will learn_____.
A. about classical and baroque music
B. about the effects of music on people’s moods
C. that music helps only medical workers
16. The main purpose(目的)of the second half of the passage is to
A. make readers interested in stories about music
B. tell readers about how mood affects(影响)
C. encourage readers to use music to improve their own moods
17. The writer describes the Penn State study so that readers will know_____.
A. any type of music can improve moods
B. college students experience many emotions
C. rock-and-roll is the most helpful kind of music
18. In the third paragraph, the writer is mainly trying to help readers_____.
A. find kinds of ways to improve their moods
B. choose their favorite kind of music
C. find out how music affects their moods
19. Which of the following statement is TRUE according to the passage?
A. All the college students often listen to rock music.
B. In order to keep a music-listening diary, record how you feel before and after listening to music.
C. Baroque is a kind of pop music.
