六、阅读理解
If music makes you smart and exercise helps you to think, surely exercising to music can turn you into a person who is better at learning and understanding.
A team of scientists from a university did tests on 33 volunteers. They found that people who exercised while listening to Italian musician Antonio Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons did much better in language ability test than without music.
The volunteers said they felt better after exercising with or without the music. But their improvement on the test doubled after listening to the music during exercise. “Exercise seems to cause positive changes in the nervous system (神经系统) and have a direct result on learning ability,” said the scientist Charles Emery. Scientists have found that music can be good for health and education. It helps relieve stress, sadness and nervousness, encourages relaxation or sleep, wakes up the body and improves memory and thoughts.
Scientists have been using Mozart’s music, especially his violin pieces, to help children with speech disabilities. Mozart is often chosen because his music is not over-exciting. A study showed students who often exercise to Mozart’s music get higher marks in tests. With important exams drawing near, your parents will not probably allow you to listen to music. But perhaps now you have good reasons to argue with them.
1.What does the underlined word “relieve” mean?
A.Add. B.Rise. C.Reduce. D.Remind.
2.How many great musicians are mentioned in the text?
A.Two. B.There. C.Four. D.Thirty-three.
3.What does the last paragraph tell us?
A.Students should not listen to music before exams.
B.Music may help students get higher grades in tests.
C.Children are supposed to follow their parents’ words.
D.There is no reason for children to argue with parents.
4.What can we know from the text?
A.Mozart’s music is not exciting.
B.Music usually makes people sleep well.
C.Exercise may influence learning ability.
D.Volunteers felt worse after exercising without music.
5.Which is the best title for this text?
A.Scientists suggest great music. B.Music and exercise lead to stress.
C.Exercising to music makes you smarter. D.Volunteers listened to Mozart’s violin pieces.

According to Kanizay, the journey was not easy. “Parts of it were harder than I thought it would be, but the mountain surprised me a lot, ”Kanizay said. “Next time, I would like to do a more challenging route(路线). ”
The record-breaking climber is now heading to Europe to spend the next year climbing her Alps(阿尔卑斯山脉). “I don't have an idea of what's next, but I will climb whatever mountain that draws me, ”Kanizay said. “I love mountains and I just want to keep climbing. ”

Dear Peter,
I'm glad to know that you're interested in traditional Chinese music. Now, let me tell you something about it.
Traditional Chinese music has a long history and there are various kinds, such as Peking Opera and guzheng music. It usually contains rich cultural connotations and can reflect the life and emotions of Chinese people.
I once had an unforgettable experience of listening to Peking Opera. Last year, my grandpa took me to a Peking Opera show. At first, I didn't understand it well. But as the show went on, I was deeply attracted by the beautiful melodies and the vivid characters. I felt like I was traveling back in time and experiencing the old - fashioned Chinese life.
I really love traditional Chinese music. It's like a window to Chinese culture, through which I can better understand my own country. I hope you can come to China and experience the charm of traditional Chinese music one day.
Best regards,
Li Hua
