Learning to play the piano is an exciting journey that
goes beyond (just pressing the right keys.It's a
journey that causes changes in brain activity over time.As
we start on this musical adventure,certain parts of our
brains become highly active.These parts help us remember
and explain what we see,hear,and feel.However,as we progress and become more
skilled,these areas of activity start to drop.
Scientists have long been interested in the effects of learning an instrument on
the brain.To explore this interesting subject,Alicja Olszewska and her team from the
Nencki Institute of Experimental Biology in Poland carried out a study with 24 people
leamning the piano over 26 weeks.After 1,6,13,and 26 weeks of training,the
researchers used functional magnetic resonance imaging(功能性磁共振成像)to watch
the participants'(参与者的)brain activity while they tried to play the increasingly
九年级英语试卷第5页(共10页)
difficult pieces.
The result showed that playing the piano activates (different areas across
the brain,including the auditory cortices(听觉皮层)that are required in managing
sounds and the motor cortices(运动皮层)required in the planning and making of
movements.Interestingly,while the areas responsible for hearing remained relatively
balanced over the 26 weeks,those required in movement presented lowered activity.A
reduction in brain activity symbolizes its improvement,which would be expected as
the participants'piano-playing skills progressed,says Olszewska.
The result also showed that learning to play the instrument activates other areas
of the brain including parts of the parietal cortex(顶叶皮层),which connect different
kinds of sensory information.Furthermore,Olszewska's team discovered that as people
progress in their learning journey,parts of the brain related to memory and those
controlling movement become more active.Activity in these areas similarly dropped as
the participants'training progressed.According to Olszewska,as people progress in
their musical skills,their brains become more skilled at managing music.
In a word,learning to play the piano is more than just developing a skill.It's a
groundbreaking experience that changes how our brains work,showing the amazing
effectiveness of the human brain.
27.What happens to brain activity while learning to play the piano?
A.It remains unchanged.
B.It increases rapidly.
C.It drops little by little.
D.It becomes balanced.
28.What can we learn from Olszewska's study?
A.Learning to play the piano has no effect on brain activity.
B.Piano playing activates areas of the brain connected with smell.
C.Brain activity increases over time when learning to play the piano.
D.The brain becomes better at managing music as piano skills improve.
29.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.What effects music has on memory.
B.What reduction in brain activity symbolizes.
C.How learning the piano changes brain activity.
D.How learning to play an instrument benefits us.

Getting hugged by someone you care about can be a
wonderfully encouraging experience.Research has shown
that hugs can strengthen (our social connections,
improve our emotional(t情感的)state and reduce feelings of
loneliness and sadness.They can even help to lower stress
MoffulIy-Ⅱ
levels and improve our health.
Unluckily,not everyone has the chance to receive hugs whenever they need
them.So,how can this problem be solved?One idea that scientists have suggested is
developing social robots that can hug people.These robots could probably offer lonely
people the positive benefits of getting hugged without the need to know a person who
hug them.
However,creating a hug robot that is well-received by people and leads to
positive feelings and reduced stress is no simple task.For example,if the robot is too
large or has a design like something intimidating,people may feel uneasy about
hugging it.Therefore,it is important for researchers to carry out further studies to
ensure that hug robots are designed in a way that supports acceptance and comfort.
A recent study published in the International Journal of Social Robotics focused
on the development of Moffully-II,a newly developed hug robot.It looks like a large,
human-shaped teddy bear and stands at two meters tall.During a hug,it is able
to move its arms and perform different gestures ()Copying the actions that
humans usually do during hugs,such as tapping someone on the back,is necessary
for making the hug feel real.
During the study,volunteers who received hugs from Moffully-II showed a
preference for hugs with gestures over those without gestures.They sensed the robot as
friendlier and safer when it performed gestures,and they found the hugs to be more
enjoyable in general.
While some people may feel uncomfortable with the idea of hugging a robot
instead of a human,hug robots show possibilities for improving the well-being of those
who are short of hugs.This includes persons in nursing homes who may benefit from
the comforting effects of hugs,even if they are provided by a robot.

30.What is one of the possible benefits of receiving hugs?
A.Increased loneliness

C.Controlled social connections.
D.Reduced stress and improved health.
31.The word"intimidating"in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to
A.terrible
B.cool
C.friendly
D.convenient
32.What is the main purpose of the study mentioned in the passage?
A.To prove the influence of gestures.
B.To examine how effective hug robots are.
C.To develop social robots for sick people.
D.To study the behavior of robots in nursing homes.
33.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Are You Ready to Hug a Robot?
B.Is It Strange for Robots to Give Hugs?
C.Are Robots Good at Giving Comforting Hugs?
D.Do Robot Hugs Feel the Same as Human Hugs?

Brainstorming is a way to come up with new
and smart ideas to solve difficult problems.It
includes bringing together people with different
views and backgrounds to share their ideas freely
and build on ideas.Here are some key points to
keep in mind when carrying on a brainstorming
activity.
brainstorming
First,the group should have a clear goal for the brainstorming activity.This will
help guide the discussion and make sure that all ideas created are closely connected
九年级英语试卷第8页(共10页)
to the topic at hand.All members should be encouraged to share their thoughts and
ideas freely.
When looking at the quality of ideas from a brainstorming activity,group
members had better consider how many there are and what they are about.While a
large number of ideas can be beneficial,it is more important to focus on the quality of
the ideas and how well they fit with the group's shared goal.
Group members need to ask for more information about an idea.This can help the
group to decide if an idea fits the goal.If an idea won't work or doesn't fully meet the
needs,it's important to recognize this and move on to other ideas that might work
better.
Besides,it's necessary to focus on coming up with new ideas,not going over old
ones.Members should be encouraged to think creatively and outside the box,and to
avoid getting stuck in the details(细节).
The number of ideas is important too.While having many ideas doesn't mean
success by itself,it makes sure we think about all possible ideas.Everyone should try
to think of as many ideas as they can,without worrying if they will work right away.
In the end,a good brainstorming activity depends on the group's ability to work
together towards a shared goal.By supporting each other's ideas and looking at their
value and fit,we can find new ways to solve hard problems for everyone's
benefit.Brainstorming is a powerful tool that can help us face challenges,working
together for a better and more creative future.
34.What is brainstorming?
35.Why do group members need to ask for more information about an idea?
36.How can people find new ways to solve hard problems for everyone's benefit in a
brainstorming activity?
37.Do you think brainstorming is a powerful tool to solve problems?Why or why not?
