AHave you ever thought about why malls, restaurants, and even theaters have music? Well, to understand this, you simply just look back at how you felt when you heard music in these places. Music is known to improve the mood of people. Often music helps us pay attention to what we are doing. Music helps patients feel good and helps them recover faster and better.Depression(沮丧) is a state of mind that most of us experience at some point of time. There are some periods in our life when everything seems difficult. It seems that everything is getting worse and we have no control over our life. Studies have shown that music can be an important mood lifter in such situations. Music also plays a great role in making us feel less nervous or worried. Anxiety(焦虑) can often cause loss of sleep and other illnesses.Music is often known as an international language. We may not know the language another person is speaking, but most of us respond to music in the same way. Music can often be the best way toconnect with someone.Music is one of the best ways to improve your moods, but this can depend largely on the kind of music you listen to. While happy music can certainly make you feel better, sad music can further lower your spirits. Listening to classical music can often make you feel a lot more powerful, while soft music can be the perfect way to relax at the end of a long way. If you want to use music to change the way how you are feeling, you need to understand the role of it, learn to recognize the kind of music that lifts your mood and helps you feel better. Once you realize the kind of music you can use, you can use it to change the way you feel. The right kind of music can be the perfect way to help us feel happier.21.The passage is mainly about __________.A. what meanings music hasB. how we control our moodsC. how music affects our moodsD. what kind of music we listen to22.According to the passage, playing music in restaurants is to __________.A. welcome the customersB. make customers feel goodC. make customers danceD. make customers feel powerful23.From the passage, we can know that __________.A. most of us suffer depression all the timeB. most of us respond to music in different waysC. music can be a good way to connect with othersD. any kind of music will help us improve our moods24.According to the passage, which kind of music can relax ourselves from a long day’s work?A. Soft music.B. Classical music.C. Sad music.D. Rock music.BDid you know that something as simple as the wallpaper on your computer can tell people a lot about you? According to researcher Donna Dawson,our computers say something about what we'relike because t hey are part of our “personal space.”A picture of a child or family on the screen often means the person cares deeply about their loved ones.A photo of the person surrounded by friends shows they value their popularity and probably work well with other people.On the other hand,pictures showing examples of past successes,like winning a prize may mean a person is only interested in themselves.Pictures of nature and natural scenery tell people that you are driven to succeed and use the pictures to relax and remove the pressure(压力)in your life.Cityscapes,pictures of cities or towns,show that you enjoy travel and adventure.Most people with cityscapes as their wallpaper are optimistic(乐观的),happy people who feel even better thinking about the places they’ve visit ed or want to visit. Pictures of animals show that you are optimistic and kind-hearted.You are often happy and you enjoy life and act young.Cartoons(漫画)or drawings show that you are a multitasker,someone who does many things at once.You have many responsibilities,but you deal with them well.That's one reason you like having something to smile about when you look at your computer wallpaper. Then,what does plain blue wallpaper tell us about a person?According to Dawson,a person with plain blue wallpaper probably values their privacy and keeps work from becoming too personal,25.A prize photo as wallpaper suggests someone_______.A. has a strong wish to succeedB. is confident about himself or herselfC. cares only about himself or herselfD. works very well with others26.Those who look on the bright side of things are likely to have wallpaper like_______.A. pictures of nature and natural sceneryB. city views or pictures of animalsC. pictures showing their past successesD. photos of staying with friends27.What can be the best title for the text?A. Where to Look for Your Computer WallpaperB. Computer Wallpaper Shows Your PersonalityC. How to Place Wallpaper on Your ComputerD. Computer Wallpaper Interests EveryoneCMrs. Blake teaches English in a large school in the inner area of a big city on the west coast. Even since she was a young girl, she has wanted to become a teacher. She has taught eight years now and hasn’t changed her mind. After she graduated from high school, she went on to colle ge. Fouryears later, she received her bachelor’s degree (BA) in English and her teaching certificate. Then she went to teach in the secondary schools of her state. In the summers, Mrs. Blake takes more classes; she hopes to get a master’s degree (MA). Wit h an MA, she will receive a higher salary and if possible, she hopes to get a doctor’s degree as well. The school day at Mrs. Blake’s high school, like that in many high schools in the United States, is divided into one hour each. Mrs. Blake must teach five of these periods. During her free period, which for her is from 2 to 3 P.M, Mrs. Blake must meet with parents, make our examinations, check assignments at all, Mrs. Blake works continuously from the time she arrives at school in the morning till the time she leaves for home late in the afternoon.28.How long is it since Mrs. Blake graduated from high school?A. four yearsB. eight yearsC. twenty yearsD. twelve years29.According to the article, which is the right order of the degrees a person can receive after going to university?A. a bachelor’s degree –a master’s degree –a doctor’s degreeB. a doctor’s degree –a bachelor’s degree –a master’s degreeC. a master’s degree –a bachelor’s degree –a doctor’s degreeD. a bachelor’s degree – a do ctor’s degree –a master’s degree30.How many degrees has Mrs. Blake achieved so far?A. fourB. twoC. threeD. one31.Which of the following sentences is not true?A.

The working hours in the school where Mrs. Blake works are similar to those of many other high schools in the states.DDuring the twenty years there has been increasing concern with the quality of the environment. Alone with air and water pollutants, noise pollution has been recognized as a serious pollutant. As noise levels have risen, the effects of noise have become more obvious.Noise is defined as "unwanted sound". Causes of noise pollution include traffic, aircraft, rock bands,barking dogs, televisions, garbage trucks, and noise from neighbors, voices, alarms, and watercrafts. Studies show that over forty percent of Americans are disturbed at home or lose sleep because of noise pollution.Noise has bad effects on people and the environment. Noise causes hearing loss, interferes with human activities at home and work, and is in various ways dangerous to people's health and well being.When we think, talk, listen to music, or sleep, we need quiet. Even low levels of noise can be annoying or frustrating. Sudden increases in volume can make sounds annoying. The quieter the background is, the more penetrating a noise can be.Noise can also make instructions or warning unclear, resulting in accidents. Louder noise bursts can cause more problems. Continued stress caused by living in noisy conditions can lead to high blood pressure, which is the major cause of some diseases.Long exposure to noise levels above eight-five decibels can damage inner cells and lead to hearing loss. Noise can result in the involuntary fear response and can cause adrenaline (肾上腺素) to be pumped into the bloodstream, the heart rate to quicken, muscles to tense, breathing to increase, and the digestive system to slow down.Local government has the responsibility to fight noise pollution. For example, it can regulate the speed of trains through their community. On the other hand, a responsible citizen will never make noise pollution wherever he is.32.What does the underlined word "penetrating" in paragraph 4 mean?A. High and excitingB. Deep and shockingC. Loud and unpleasantD. Clear and comfortable33.Which of the following is not related to noise pollution?A. Quickening the digestive systemB. Having low blood pressureC. Slowing down the heart rateD. Breathing fast34.In the last paragraph, the writer suggests that _____________.A. individuals and government should work together to reduce noise pollutionB. the government should offer it's people better education on noise pollutionC. the government should be responsible for noise pollutionD. people who make noise pollution should be punished35.What is the text mainly about?A. Measurement of noise levels.B. Bad effects of noise pollutionC. Hearing damage from environmental noiseD. Community reactions to noise第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

According to researcher Donna Dawson,our computers say something about what we're like because they are part of our “personal space.”A picture of a child or family on the screen often means the person cares deeply about their loved ones.A photo of the person surrounded by friends shows they value their popularity and probably work well with other people.On the other hand,pictures showing examples of past successes,like winning a prize may mean a person is only interested in themselves.Pictures of nature and natural scenery tell people that you are driven to succeed and use the pictures to relax and remove the pressure(压力)in your life.Cityscapes,pictures of cities or towns,show that you enjoy travel and adventure.Most people with cityscapes as their wallpaper are optimistic(乐观的),happy peo ple who feel even better thinking about the places they’ve visited or want to visit.Pictures of animals show that you are optimistic and kind-hearted.You are often happy and you enjoy life and act young.Cartoons(漫画)or drawings show that you are a multitasker,someone who does many things at once.You have many responsibilities,but you deal with them well.That's one reason you like having something to smile about when you look at your computer wallpaper.

Alone with air and water pollutants, noise pollution has been recognized as a serious pollutant. As noise levels have risen, the effects of noise have become more obvious.Noise is defined as "unwanted sound". Causes of noise pollution include traffic, aircraft, rock bands, barking dogs, televisions, garbage trucks, and noise from neighbors, voices, alarms, and watercrafts. Studies show that over forty percent of Americans are disturbed at home or lose sleep because of noise pollution.Noise has bad effects on people and the environment. Noise causes hearing loss, interferes with human activities at home and work, and is in various ways dangerous to people's health and well being.When we think, talk, listen to music, or sleep, we need quiet. Even low levels of noise can be annoying or frustrating. Sudden increases in volume can make sounds annoying. The quieter the background is, the more penetrating a noise can be.Noise can also make instructions or warning unclear, resulting in accidents. Louder noise bursts can cause more problems. Continued stress caused by living in noisy conditions can lead to high blood pressure, which is the major cause of some diseases.Long exposure to noise levels above eight-five decibels can damage inner cells and lead to hearing loss. Noise can result in the involuntary fear response and can cause adrenaline (肾上腺素) to be pumped into the bloodstream, the heart rate to quicken, muscles to tense, breathing to increase, and the digestive system to slow down.Local government has the responsibility to fight noise pollution. For example, it can regulate the speed of trains through their community. On the other hand, a responsible citizen will never make noise pollution wherever he is.32.What does the underlined word "penetrating" in paragraph 4 mean?A. High and excitingB. Deep and shockingC.
