    Charlie Vansant, a college student of Athens, Ohio, who reported that his car was stolen, got a surprise when he learned a woman had mistaken it for her daughter’s car and taken it— using her key.

    Kate Anderson became an accidental car thief when picking up her daughter’s car near an Ohio University building last week. Anderson spotted the Toyota Camry（丰田凯美瑞）and used her daughter’s key to unlock the car, start the engine and drive home — without realizing that the car wasn't her daughter’s.

    When Charlie Vansant left class a short time later, he found only an empty parking spot. He first assumed the car had been towed, but when the police couldn’t find a record of it, they took a theft report.

    The morning after Anderson took the car, her daughter discovered the Camry in the driveway wasn’t hers. Anderson said she was able to find Vansant’s name on paperwork in the glove compartment and look up his phone number on the website for the university.

    When Anderson told Charlie the car was in her driveway, “It sounded really suspicious（可疑的）at first, as she wanted to hold the thing for ransom (赎金) , ” said Vansant. He eventually went to the house with a police officer, where he was reunited with his car. According to the police report, the case was closed “because of mistaken car identity”, and Anderson wasn’t charged.

    Vansant seemed to blame the car company more than the “thief”. “Her key fit not only my lock, but my ignition（点火装置）as well — so high-five for Toyota, I guess.” he said.

    1.What does the underlined word “towed” mean in paragraph 3?

    A. sold. B. damaged. C. stolen. D. remove.

    2.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

    A. Mrs. Anderson’s daughter discovered the car her mother drove was not hers.

    B. Charlie had thought he had to give Anderson money to get his car back.

    C. Mrs. Anderson stole Charlie’s car at the request of her daughter.

    D. Mrs. Anderson used her daughter’s key to unlock Charlie’s car and drive home.

    3.What does Charlie mean by “high-five for Toyota”?

    A. He should thank Toyota for returning his car.

    B. He is blaming Toyota for the poor quality of car keys.

    C. He wants to celebrate with Toyota for getting his car back.

    D. He thinks highly of Toyota for producing large quantities of cars.

    4.What is likely to happen next according to the passage?

    A. Mrs. Anderson was charged with stealing a car.

    B. Charlie blamed Mrs. Anderson for mistakenly taking his car.

    C. Charlie would ask the Toyota Company to give him an explanation.

    D. The Toyota Company would give Charlie a new car as compensation（补偿）.

    Have you ever felt a sudden feeling of joy because you heard a favorite song playing? Then you know that music can have a strong effect (影响) on your emotions. 1.It can help get you out of a bad mood (心情) or stay in a good one, says Alicia Ann Clair, professor at the University of Kansas.

    2. To cheer up, listen to Latin music or anything with a strong beat or a fast speed 3. When you want to relax after a busy day, music with a slower speed can calm you down.

    Listen to calming music before you start any stressful activities, advises Dr. Clair. "Once you' re in a good state of mind, it' s easier to keep it." You can lower stress at work with music, too, by playing relaxing tunes (曲调). 4. "If you listen to them all day long, you' ll stop noticing them," Dr. Clair explains. Then the music won' t have any effect.

    5. "To feel energetic, start with something relaxing, and then gradually increase the speed and beat," says Dr. Clair. For example, first play some nice slow love songs, and then listen to something more energetic. When you want to calm down after a busy week at work, just do the opposite.

    A. Music can also help you relax and feel active.

    B. Try to take advantage of this power of music.

    C. But only play them when you really need them.

    D. Loud and fast music can fill you with energy.

    E. There are different kinds of music around the world.

    F. Put on your favorite song, but only if it is one that can lift your spirits.

    G. You can change your mood by changing from one kind of music to another.
