  Imagine going to your doctor with frequent headaches. Your doctor takes a prescription pad (药方) and writes a word on it. The word isn't ‘aspirin’, it's ‘Mozart’.

  The idea isn't so far-fetched. Many kinds of music can stir (激发) the imagination and produce strong feeling. Scientists have found Mozart's music to be remarkable in its ability to calm its listeners.

  Many amazing cases have been known using Mozart as a healing aid. For example, a tiny newly-born baby named Krissy, who weighed just 1.5 pounds at birth, was on total life support. Doctors thought she had little chance of survival. Her mother insisted on playing Mozart for Krissy, and thinks it saved her daughter's life. Krissy lived, but she was very small for her age and slower than the average child. At the age of four, she showed an interest in music and her parents gave her violin lessons. To their astonishment, Krissy was able to play musical pieces from memory that were far beyond the ability of an average four-year-old. Playing music helped her improve in all areas of her life.

  And there are other stories. Officials in Washington State report that new arrivals from Asia learn English more quickly when they listen to Mozart. Even animals respond to Mozart. In France, cows listening to Mozart give more milk.

  Why Mozart, rather than Bach or the Beatles? Any kind of music can have an effect on some people. But Mozart has more balance. It isn't too fast or too show; it's just right. Don Campbell, who wrote a book called The Mozart Effect, says, “It's like food. A hot spicy meal will affect you differently than a sweet dessert. And while you might love these foods, they aren't good for you to eat every day. You need simple, nutritious (营养的) food on a steady basis. That's the way Mozart is. It's like a nutritionally balanced meal that does good to your body.”

1.Scientists find Mozart's music has a special effect on ________.

[  ]

A.stirring people's imagination

B.curing certain illnesses

C.increasing the growth of a newly-born baby

D.calming down its listeners

2.From the third paragraph, we can conclude that Krissy ________ if she had not listened to Mozart.

[  ]

A.would have died

B.would not have been so gifted in music

C.would have stayed in hospital longer

D.would have stopped growth

3.Which of the following is not true about the effect of Mozart's music?

[  ]

A.It can help people learn foreign languages more easily.

B.It can help people sleep more peacefully.

C.It can make cows give more milk.

D.It can be used as medicine.

4.The author mentioned Don Campell and his book ________.

[  ]

A.as a good support to his own idea

B.to show the relationship between food and music

C.to give some new explanations about Mozart's music

D.to ask people to listen to Mozart more

  He grew up among knights(国际象棋中的马), kings and queens.At 16, Norway’s chess genius Magnus Carlsen is pushing to become the world’s youngest world title contender(竞争者).

  Carlsen, who was introduced to the game by his father Henrik when he was a little boy, became the world’s youngest international grandmaster(大师)at 13.Now he is 17th in the World Chess Federation’s ranking of top players –a position much desired for a player his age.

  “I’m going for the world championship,”says Magnus, the third youngest grandmaster in world history.But former champion Gary Kasparov and India’s Viswanathan Anand, the World Chess Federation’s current number one, already see him as a possible person who will take their position after they have left.

  From a young age, Carlsen showed signs of extraordinary intelligence.“At the age of two, he already knew all the car brand names.At five, whatever he built with his toys was very unique and outstanding,”his father says.

  It is also reported that he learnt the names of every country of the world, with their flag, capital and size by heart.But his first attempts at the game were embarrasing and he was far from the “Mozart of Chess”.

  “I almost gave up,”his father remembers.But as Magnus watched his father and older sister play, he began to like the challenge.

  After playing his first tournament(决赛)at eight, his baby face became a common feature in chess circles.

  When asked what he does when not playing chess, Magnus’ answers to an interviewer’s questions come easily.

  Girls?“I haven’t done much in that field.”

  Money?“Has never been a problem.”

  Hobbies?“I love to play football, spend time with my friends and be in front of my computer as people my age do.And listen to music.”

  But then, strangely enough, math is not his thing.“I was definitely the best in my class when I was little but now I hate it,”he says.

  So what’s the secret behind his success so far?

  “Before a match I will sleep a lot,”he says.“There are very often bad dreams; like that the person I am playing with cheats.”

(1)
