She invited 121 people to take part in it. They were between 18 and 86 years old. Sarah first asked them to listen to three musical clips (片段). 2 They needed to make a note whenever they heard the same clips at the concert. To her surprise, the older people were just as good at remembering the clips as the younger ones were. “ 3 When we listen to music, the amygdala (杏仁体) in our brain ‘lights up’. This makes our brain think of music as something important. Other parts of the brain also work to keep this ‘important’ information. So our memory of the music can last for a long time,” Sarah says. 4 Doctors may use this to treat illnesses that hurt people’s memory. Music may help these people remember things. 5 As we all know, music has the power to make us excited or relaxed. Experts believe music can make people, even babies, more creative, smarter and happier. Some experts suggest playing slow music to help us pay attention when we study. It’s said music can also improve listening skills and language abilities. A．In her eyes, the result is useful. B．Then, she told them to go to a concert. C．But music will probably stay with us forever. D．We often remember better when we are young. E．Besides this, music can help people in other ways. F．This shows our musical memory doesn’t change as we grow old. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．F 4．A 5．E 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了英国科学家Sarah Sauve关于音乐与记忆的研究，发现音乐记忆不会随年龄增长而衰退，并阐述了音乐对大脑记忆机制的影响及其在其他方面的益处。 1．根据“When we get old, we may forget many things from the past.”及下文关于音乐与记忆的研究可知，空处需要一个句子来引出下文关于“音乐”的研究。选项C“但音乐可能会永远陪伴我们”符合语境。故选C。 2．根据“They needed to make a note whenever they heard the same clips at the concert.”，可知空处与“听音乐会”的实验步骤有关。选项B“然后，她告诉他们去参加一场音乐会”符合语境。故选B。 3．根据“To her surprise, the older people were just as good at remembering the clips as the younger ones were.”可知，此处是在说研究结果，选项F“这表明我们的音乐记忆不会随着我们变老而改变”符合语境。故选F。 4．根据“Doctors may use this to treat illnesses that hurt people’s memory.

It is also said that Yu the Great, who founded the Xia Dynasty, used sticks to pick hot food in order to save time to control floods, so chopsticks came into being. How should we behave when using chopsticks?

Although it sounds a little scary, even those with stage fright can speak successfully to the group with adequate preparation. Practice your speech before the big day. 1 If possible, practice the speech in front of a friend or family member to get used to saying it to real people.

The speech organizers must have something valuable in you or your expertise. 2 Remember that fear of public speaking is very common. 3 Most of the people in the audience would be feeling the same fear and stress that you do in your position. Knowing this may make you feel better. 4 What you say should be tailored (专门的) to why you’re there and who you’re speaking to in order to avoid sounding general. If speaking to a charity group, mention the good work certain specific individuals have done for the cause. If speaking at a business conference, briefly state why you want to help these people. Keep eye contact with the crowd. 5 Pick one person in each part and look at him while you’re speaking. After each important point in your speech, switch your focus to another part.
