Is there a connection between music and language? According to recent studies, the answer is yes: Music helps develop certain language abilities in the brain.

A study from Northwestern University shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a person's hearing ability. As a part of the study, two groups of people listened to a person talking in a noisy room. The people in the first group were musicians, while those in the second group had no musical training. The musicians were found to be able to hear the talking person more clearly.

Musicians hear better, says study leader Nina Kraus, because they learn to pay attention to certain sounds. For example, when the violinists play in an orchestra(管弦樂隊(duì)), they must listen closely to what they are playing and ignore(忽視)the other sounds. In this way, musicians can hear certain sounds better, even in a room with lots of noise.

Gotfried Schlaug, a doctor at Harvard Medical School, works with stroke(中風(fēng))patients.

Because of their illness, these people cannot say their names, addresses, or other information normally However, they can till sing. Dr. Schlaug was surprised to find singing words helped his patients finally speak. Why does this work? Schlaug isn't sure. Music seems to be able to make different parts of the brain active, including the bad parts. In some way, this helps patients use those parts of the brain again.

So music is not only enjoyable, but also good for us in many other ways. Playing an instrument or singing, says Nina Kraus, can help us do better in school and keep our brain sharp as we get older.

1.What were the people in the first group asked to do in the study of Northwestern University?

A.Listen to different kinds of music. B.Make some noise in an empty room.

C.Give the second group musical training. D.Find out what the talking person was saying.

2.The writer uses the example of violinists in Paragraph 3 to explain________.

A.how musicians play in an orchestra B.how musicians ignore certain sounds

C.why musicians have better hearing ability D.why musicians are not afraid of loud noise

3.Gottfried Schlaug helps his stroke patients speak by________.

A.playing music for them B.getting them to sing words

C.teaching them to play instruments D.joining the bad parts of their brain

4.What is the main purpose of the passage?

A.To introduce different ways of playing music.

B.To give some advice about making our brain active.

C.To show the relationship between music and language abilities.

D.To share the results of recent studies on treating stroke patients.

The Garbage (垃圾) Project started at the University of Arizona in 1973. Since then, the students and teachers in it have studied the modern garbage in different cities.

To study the garbage, the students had to travel to landfills, the places where cities bury (填埋) their garbage. While the students were studying the garbage, they wore special clothes. Students were very careful when they opened bags of garbage.

One important thing the students have learned from studying the garbage is that the garbage in landfills disappears very slowly. That was surprising to both the students and many scientists who had thought that about 70% of the garbage in landfills would disappear quickly. Even in cities where it rains a lot, the students found newspapers from 1948, 40-year-old hot dogs, and vegetables from 1970. And the students also found many more empty bottles of cola than they expected.

As society develops, there is more and more waste produced in our daily life. How to dispose of our garbage well depends on what kind of garbage it is: regular (普通的) garbage, dangerous materials, or recyclable materials, such as newspapers and glass bottles. Regular garbage goes to regular landfills. Dangerous materials are harmful to people’s health and the environment. They shouldn’t go into regular landfills. And people should try their best to reuse the resource and reduce the amount of using them. It is high time that people need to divide different kinds of waste and put them into different dustbins, which will be a great help to cleaning workers as well as the whole society.

Homes are full of dangerous waste. One kind of the dangerous waste in homes is batteries (電池). When batteries are buried directly in a landfill, they often break open. The poison inside them moves through rain water to the bottom of the landfill. Then it can pollute the natural water in the ground.

Another dangerous waste from homes is motor oil. When people pour old motor oil on the ground or throw it in the garbage, it pollutes the environment.

Our garbage problem is not new, but as the world’s population continues to grow, it will become a bigger and bigger problem.

1.To study the modern garbage, the students had to do many things except _________.

A.wearing special clothes B.traveling to landfills

C.burying the garbage themselves D.opening bags of garbage

2.The words “dispose of” in Paragraph 4 probably mean “_________”.

A.put away B.deal with C.worry about D.make up

3.What can we learn from the passage?

A.Old motor oil should go to regular landfills.

B.There are only two kinds of dangerous waste in homes.

C.Batteries are often broken when they are buried directly in a landfill.

D.The students found empty bottles of cola were not as many as they expected.

World Sleep Day, organized by the World Sleep Day Committee of the World Association of Sleep Medicine since 2008, is on March 21 every year.

World Sleep Day is to celebrate the benefits of good and healthy sleep. Sleep quality(質(zhì)量) plays an important role in people’s health. Researchers say that there are a lot of advantages if we always get enough sleep. We can be smarter, thinner, healthier and more cheerful. Also we’re to have better skin, better memories and longer lives.

When you lose even one hour of sleep for any reason, it will influence your performance the next day.

In general, adults are thought to need at least eight hours of sleep a night, but a recent survey found that, on workdays, only 21% of them really get a full eight hours of sleep, and another 21% get less than six. For teenagers, a healthy amount is about eight to nine hours every night. However, about 80% of high school students don’t get enough sleep because of their schoolwork or some bad habits.

Twenty-seven percent of people in the world have sleeping problems. Now there are over 80 kinds of sleep disorders, and most people know little about their danger. So, for our good life and work, it’s necessary for us to realize the importance of sleep and try to have a good sleep.

When you’re not at home, many worries may start to crowd your mind. Did I turn the coffee maker off? Did I lock the door? Are the kids doing their homework or watching TV? With a smart home, you can forget all of these worries.

A smart home is a home with a communication network. This network connects(連接) devices (裝置), such as lights and TV sets, and makes them to be controlled( 控制) from far away through electrical wiring( 電線), mobile phone communication or WiFi over the Internet.

More and more people may start to think about owning a smart home, because it makes life much easier. It can help keep your room at a certain temperature. It can record (錄制) what happens inside the home and send the video to your phone. When you are on holiday abroad, you can use a smart home controller to switch on or off the electricity when necessary. Some smart homes can receive a visitor, allowing him to come in and offering him a drink. They can even feed the cat and water the plants.

Besides, smart homes are easy to fix. Most smart home technology and devices are wireless and can be set up with a minimum ( 最 少 量 ) of tools, using only the guiding information. When there is a problem, you can deal with it yourself without paying a professional (專業(yè)人士).

However, for home-users, the smart home technology is far from perfect. It can be rather expensive to own the technology and the devices. Also, because the smart home system ( 系 統(tǒng) ) allows its owner to get home information from anywhere, it leaves the home easy to be attacked by hackers ( 黑 客 ), who may secretly use or change the information in the system.

Now, many scientists are excited about the future of smart home technology. Imagine being able to get fashion advice from your mirror, or receive food shopping suggestions from your fridge. While there are others who worry that those smart devices will make people lazier and lonelier. Whatever it is, one thing is for sure — smart home technology will change the way we live and work.

1.According to the passage, nowadays a smart home can lock the door through .

A.electric lights B.mirror technologies

C.mobile phones D.shopping programs

2.The third paragraph of the passage is mainly about .

A.the steps to use smart systems B.the prices of smart programs

C.the good points of a smart home D.the tools for setting up smart devices

3.Which of the following is TRUE about a smart home according to the passage?

A.Smart homes can’t help feed pets nowadays.

B.Smart homes cost a lot of money at present.

C.You can’t control your smart home in other countries.

D.It’s hard for hackers to get information from smart homes.

4.What’s the writer’s opinion(觀點(diǎn)) according to the passage?

A.People will become less happy in the future.

B.People’s life style will be different in the future.

C.Mobile phones are the most important in smart homes.

D.Smart homes are much better than other smart systems.
