1.Recent research shows that listening to music improves our mental well-being and boosts our physical health in surprising and astonishing ways.(16)F.Here are some amazing scientifically-proven benefits of being hooked on music.
Music reduces depression
More than 350million people suffer from depression around the world.A study by Hans Joachim Trappe in Germany demonstrated that music can benefit patients with depressive symptoms,depending on the type of music.(17)D,but techno and heavy metal brought people down even more.The next time you feel low,put on some classical or meditative music to lift your spirits.
(18)B
Research shows that taking music lessons predicts higher academic performance and IQ in young children.In one study,6-year-olds who took keyboard or singing lessons in small groups for 36weeks had significantly larger increases in IQ and standardized educational test results than children who took either drama lessons or no lessons. (19)A.
Music keeps your brain healthy in old age
A study with healthy older adults found that those with ten or more years of musical experience scored higher on cognitive tests than musicians with one to nine years of musical study.The non-musicians scored the lowest.Business magnate Warren Buffet stays sharp at age 84by playing ukulele.(20)C.

A.To help them achieve academic excellence,encourage them to sing or play an instrument.
B.Music raises IQ and academic performance.
C.It's never too late to play an instrument to keep you on top of your game.
D.Meditative(冥想的) sounds and classical music lifted people up.
E.Music strengthens learning and memory.
F.Musical training can help raise our IQ and even keep us sharp in old age.
G.Music can make you happy every day.

12.Disability doesn't mean inability.Although he has been blind since birth,18-year-old Joseph Chadbourne never feels different from his 90classmates at Akron's Firestone High School in Ohio,US.
Chadbourne walks with a cane (拐杖),and he is often arm-in-arm with a classmate who is happy to help him down the hallway or on the stairs.His textbooks and exams are in Braille(盲文),and he types his assignments and notes on a BrailleNote,a small computer hooked up to a printer.Because of his disability,he's permitted extra time on exams,but Chadbourne says he doesn't need it,as he completes his tests in the same amount of time as other students.
Teachers at Firestone have been impressed by Chadbourne,whom they say hasn't let his disability stop him from doing anything he wants to do.He's one of the top students in his class and he was on the swim team.
"He doesn't take,‘You can't do this,'for an answer,"Chadbourne's history teacher,Jill Regenos,told Akron Beacon Journal.
Chadbourne joined the swim team in his sophomore (高中二年级)year.His coach used a broom handle to poke (戳)him while in the water.This would give him the signal that he needed to flip (翻身).
"It takes a month or so to get good timing,"Chadbourne said of the flips."They tap and I immediately go into a turn."
Chadbourne has even done his part to give back.He has taken part in an annual swim team fundraiser (募捐活动)to raise money for Akron Children's Hospital,swimming more than 10consecutive (连续的)hours this year,with only 10-minute breaks each hour.He also has tutored a younger blind student in Braille and reading fluency.
Chadbourne has this advice for other students with disabilities:"Just don't let it stop you.If you put your mind to it,you can do anything."

51.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?C
A.Chadbourne's achievements.
B.Chadbourne's struggles.
C.How Chadbourne lives his campus life.
D.How Chadbourne is treated by those around him.
52.When teaching Chadbourne to swim,his coachD.
A.often doubted whether he was good enough
B.poked him when he didn't follow instructions
C.spent about a year training him to flip
D.used a special signal to tell him what he should do
53.Which of the following best describes Chadbourne?B
A.Independent and modest.B.Determined and confident.
C.Kind-hearted and humorous.D.Patient and caring.
54.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?C
A.Chadbourne is studying at a school for physically disabled children.
B.Because of his disability,it usually takes Chadbourne extra time to complete his work.
C.Chadbourne encourages other disabled students to follow their dreams and not let their disabilities hold them back.
D.To collect money for his treatment fees,Chadbourne together with his swim team joined in fund-raising activities.

9.There was a man who was blind from birth.He owned a fruit stand (摊子) on a very busy street.
One day his son came to him and told him that he had read in the newspaper of a new discovery that they could operate on his eyes and allow him to see.The father and son traveled to the doctor and paid for the operation.
The doctor asked the man after the operation,"What is the first thing you want to see when I take the bandages off?"
The blind man replied,"I want to see my beautiful fruit on my stand!"
The doctor and the son took the man down to the busy street where his fruit stand was located for so many years.The doctor carefully took off the bandages so that the man could lay his eyes on the beautiful fruit.The man was so full of joy that he could finally see his life's work-taking care of his fruit.
After a few hours of enjoying his beautiful fruit stand,he looked down the street and saw there were quite a few fruit stands in both directions.He spent so much time looking at other fruit stands and he was so sad because his fruit stand was not the only one along the street!
The reason I tell you this story is:
-You are an individual.
-You have different fingerprints,DNA,and thinking!
-You are one of a kind.
-There is no competition.
-You are on the endangered species list!
-Once you are gone,that's it!
-Be yourself and allow everyone else to be who they are.
36.How did the son know there was a way to allow the blind man to see?D
A.From the doctor
B.From a friend.
C.From the advertisement
D.From the newspaper.
37.What was the blind man's biggest wish after he could see?A
A.To see his fruit
B.To see the world.
C.To see his son
D.To see the doctor.
38.Why did the man's feeling change from joy to sadness?C
A.Because he couldn't see his stand very clearly.
B.Because his life's work was taking care of his fruit.
C.Because his stand was just one of those fruit stands.
D.Because the fruit wasn't as beautiful as he had thought.
39.The purpose of the story isB.
A.to support us to compete with others
B.to remind us to mind our own life
C.to advise us to be a special one
D.to believe us endangered.

16.In the past,11-year-old Michal Bodzianowski knew very little about beer.However,encouraged by his teacher,he tested a way for astronauts to brew beer in space.
What is even more surprising is that Michal's way of brewing beer will be tested soon in the International Space Station.His idea of brewing beer is not for astronauts to have fun but for future human residents to have something to drink in space.
Michal said that he discovered the magic of beer in a book.So when his teacher asked the class to think of ideas for the Space Science Competition,Michal suggested the beer as a way  to help future space residents.Fortunately for him,his teacher thought it was a brilliant idea and instructed him to do research on it with a team of other students.After that,Michal's work was sent to the organizer of the competition.It was very lucky for him that his work was among the 11works which were selected out of the 744works submitted by 3,900students all over the country.The selected works will be tested in space by astronauts during their next flight.
In order to prepare his experiment,Michal will receive a real research mini-laboratory.He will put his ingredients into a tube.Then the tube will be sent to the International Space Station.When it arrives,the astronauts will combine all the ingredients according to the instructions sent by Michal.Meanwhile,the young boy and his team will do the same experiment on earth and compare the results with those of the astronauts.If the experiment is successful,future space residents may one day have Michal's beer in space.
29.What's Michal's idea?B.
A.Brewing beer in space for astronauts to have fun
B.Brewing beer for future space residents
C.Selling beer in space
D.Taking beer to space from the earth
30.Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?C
A.Michal's work was selected out of 744works.
B.Michal will do the experiment on earth while the astronauts do in space.
