Scientists have found that soft music can help to improve sleep quality and quantity. This works for sleepers of all ages, and even for those with sleeping problems. Soft music can help us fall asleep faster, wake up less during the night and feel more rested in the morning. You may not notice the effects overnight, though. It could take as many as three weeks to see any improvements. Why can soft music help us sleep better? The reasons aren’t clear yet. It may have something to do with the relaxing effect of a good song. Music can have real physical effects, too. Soft music can lower our heart rate and slow down our breathing. This prepares us for sleep. Scientists say that for most people, music that has 70 beats per minute (bpm) works best. Classical, jazz and folk music(民间音乐)are usually more effective than other musical styles. Familiar songs work well, too. You may need to experiment to make your own playlists. If you are not sure how many beats a song has in a minute, you can find out by entering its title into songbpm.com. And remember to get the volume(音量)right. Make sure that the final piece is one that slowly dies down. Otherwise, you may be woken up by the sudden silence. It is very important to get enough high-quality sleep. Before you go to bed tonight, play some soft music. Then, just prepare to be rocked off to dreamland! ( ) 21. According to the passage, whom can soft music help with sleep? A. People of every age. B.

In fact, many people have found that dancing can make them feel better both physically and mentally. Why is dancing so helpful? When we dance, we move our bodies to different kinds of music. This movement helps our bodies produce more endorphins (内啡肽), a chemical that makes us feel relaxed and happy. It’s like our body’s own “feel-good” medicine. Dancing is a mix of music and sports. While simply listening to music or doing sports can cheer us up, mixing them together gives better results. In a study, a group of German scientists carefully chose a number of patients with different levels of depression (沮丧). They tested these patients under three conditions: a group dancing with music, a group just listening to music, and a group riding bikes without music. The results showed that the first group was the least depressed. Dancing can bring people together, too. Tango, Latin dance or other social dancing requires us to move with others, which can improve our sense of social connection, according to IBSA, a Swiss scientific foundation. Studies have found that depression often has to do with sadness about the past or worry about the future. However, dancing helps you focus on the present, connect with your body and free your mind for a while. In this way, it helps us forget bad feelings. Lauren Helper, a social worker in the US, said that dancing can be any form. You can dance at home when you listen to your favorite song, or you can go out and dance with friends. The most important thing is to have fun no matter who you are. Dancing is a wonderful way to boost your feelings and live a happier life. ( ) 26. How does the writer support his opinion in Paragraph 3? A. By introducing the history of dancing. B. By giving examples of different dance styles. C. By presenting the results of a scientific study. D. By comparing different types of music used in dancing. ( ) 27. What does the underlined word “boost” in the last paragraph mean? A. 提高 B. 降低 C. 改变 D. 展示 ( ) 28. Which would be the best structure of the passage? A. ①/②/③④⑤/⑥ B. ①/②③④⑤/⑥ C. ①②③④⑤/⑥ D. ①/②③④⑤⑥ ( ) 29. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To introduce different types of dances. B. To encourage people to join dance classes. C. To explain why dancing makes people feel better. D. To share the results of a scientific study on dancing. ( ) 30. Which of the following is Lauren Helper’s opinion? A. People dancing at home can get the best results. B. Only professional dancers can enjoy the benefits of dancing. C. Dancing can’t help people who have serious mental problems. D. Dancing in any form can be a good way to make people feel better. C “Singing is the start of music. By singing, we make ourselves physically part of music and music part of us,” writes composer Andrew Ford, host of The Music Show. Songs have a powerful influence on us. Has anyone discovered the joy of singing in a choir (合唱团)? Mary works as a busy teacher, and choir practice nights are simply her “sanity”. “There are nights when even I don’t feel like going to choir but by the time we’ve finished. I’m glad I came,” said Mary. Research says choir singing is really good for you. By watching the health signs of members of a choir, Bjorn Vickoff at a University in Sweden discovered the singers’ hearts started to beat in step with their breathing. There seemed to be a wave of air moving through the group, making them feel connected as one. Research has shown that choir singing has comforting influences similar to those that come from breathing exercises in yoga. Singing also produces hormones and other happy chemicals, fighting against depression and loneliness. Singers have been found to have lower levels of stress after choir singing. And a later study also found that singing reduces anxiety and that group singing can be especially good for the health of older adults. At the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, choir after choir was put on stage by singers with no big names. But this is real music to Tony Backhouse’s ears. The choirmaster spent thirty years in Australia founding and working with choral groups. “If I were asked to redesign the Australian educational system, I would start by strongly suggesting that group singing become a central part of daily activity. I believe it builds character and, more than anything else, encourages a taste for cooperation with others,” said Tony. For him, the meaning of group singing is “cooperation, rather than competition. Singing teaches us to listen, which is a great gift. In my community choir. It’s about creating something amazing together, and we really aim to make every rehearsal a thing of joy and beauty.” ( ) 31. What does the underlined word “sanity” probably mean in Paragraph 1? A. Peace. B. Plan. C. Duty. D. Sadness. ( ) 32. What did Bjorn Vickoff find in his research on choir members? A. Singers’ practice makes their hearts beat faster. B. Singers’ heartbeats match with their breathing. C. The stage air changes singers’ breathing speed. D. The watching machine changes singers’ heart rates. ( ) 33. Which of the following is an advantage of choir singing from the text? A. It makes people’s physical power stronger. B. It reduces the chemicals in our body. C. It can help people feel less stressed. D. It makes older adults happy forever. ( ) 34. What can we know from Tony Backhouse’s words about group singing? A. It is important for school education. B. It has become a part of education. C. It is good for students’ competition. D. It is more popular with famous singers. ( ) 35. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Why Andrew Ford loves singing. B. How to make choir more joyful. C. Different opinions about choirs. D. Great advantages of group singing. 四、任务型阅读(共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) As we know, music plays an important role in our lives. It can bring us many advantages and make life better. Here are some ways that music can help us. 36 A lot of students can not get enough sleep at night. Listening to relaxing music before bed can help. Soft music like Bach or Mozart can calm your mind and body. A study shows that people who listen to relaxing music before bed will sleep better. 37 It’s much easier to remember a song than a long passage. You can turn what you need to remember into a fun song. For example, we all learned the ABCs with a simple song when we were kids. That’s because music makes memorizing interesting. 38 When you clean the house, you may play your favorite music. The same goes for exercising. Most people like listening to music when they exercise. They choose strong music to keep them full of power. Music makes doing something enjoyable in our lives. 39 Researchers suggest that listening to music can be a nice experience. If you feel sad, what should you do? Just listen to your favorite music for about 10 minutes. The brain will produce dopamine (快乐激素) that makes you feel happy. 40 Whether you play in a band or just share your favorite songs with friends, music creates a common language. It helps us express feelings when words are not enough. It builds understanding between people from different cultures or ages. A. Cheers you up B. Connects people C. Improves memory D.

In fact, many people have found that dancing can make them feel better both physically and mentally. Why is dancing so helpful? When we dance, we move our bodies to different kinds of music. This movement helps our bodies produce more endorphins (内啡肽), a chemical that makes us feel relaxed and happy. It’s like our body’s own “feel-good” medicine. Dancing is a mix of music and sports. While simply listening to music or doing sports can cheer us up, mixing them together gives better results. In a study, a group of German scientists carefully chose a number of patients with different levels of depression (沮丧). They tested these patients under three conditions: a group dancing with music, a group just listening to music, and a group riding bikes without music. The results showed that the first group was the least depressed. Dancing can bring people together, too. Tango, Latin dance or other social dancing requires us to move with others, which can improve our sense of social connection, according to IBSA, a Swiss scientific foundation. Studies have found that depression often has to do with sadness about the past or worry about the future. However, dancing helps you focus on the present, connect with your body and free your mind for a while. In this way, it helps us forget bad feelings. Lauren Helper, a social worker in the US, said that dancing can be any form. You can dance at home when you listen to your favorite song, or you can go out and dance with friends. The most important thing is to have fun no matter who you are. Dancing is a wonderful way to boost your feelings and live a happier life. ( ) 26. How does the writer support his opinion in Paragraph 3? A. By introducing the history of dancing. B. By giving examples of different dance styles. C. By presenting the results of a scientific study. D. By comparing different types of music used in dancing. ( ) 27. What does the underlined word “boost” in the last paragraph mean? A. 提高 B. 降低 C. 改变 D. 展示 ( ) 28. Which would be the best structure of the passage? A. ①/②/③④⑤/⑥ B. ①/②③④⑤/⑥ C. ①②③④⑤/⑥ D. ①/②③④⑤⑥ ( ) 29. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To introduce different types of dances. B. To encourage people to join dance classes. C. To explain why dancing makes people feel better. D. To share the results of a scientific study on dancing. ( ) 30.

The results showed that the first group was the least depressed.”，作者直接描述了一项科学实验的过程和结果，以此来证明“音乐+舞蹈”对缓解抑郁最有效。因此，作者是通过“呈现科学研究结果”来支持观点的。 27.A【27题详解】倒数第一段“Dancing is a wonderful way to boost your feelings and live a happier life.” ，“live a happier life”表明跳舞能让情绪变得更好，所以“boost your feelings”应该是“提高/增强情绪”。 28.B【28题详解】第①段提出问题“为什么跳舞如此有帮助？”，第②-⑤段从生理、心理研究、社交、专注当下四个角度回答；第⑥段总结并鼓励跳舞。因此结构是“总起—分述原因—总结”，对应①/②③④⑤/⑥。 29.C【29题详解】第一段直接提问“Why is dancing so helpful?”，后面各段分别从生理、心理、社交等角度解释原因，最后总结跳舞的好处。由此可知，本文的主要目的是“解释为什么跳舞让人感觉更好”。 30.D【30题详解】倒数第一段“Lauren Helper...said that dancing can be any form...Dancing is a wonderful way to boost your feelings and live a happier life.”，Lauren Helper认为“任何形式的舞蹈都能成为让人心情愉悦的良好方式”。 C “Singing is the start of music. By singing, we make ourselves physically part of music and music part of us,” writes composer Andrew Ford, host of The Music Show. Songs have a powerful influence on us. Has anyone discovered the joy of singing in a choir (合唱团)? Mary works as a busy teacher, and choir practice nights are simply her “sanity”. “There are nights when even I don’t feel like going to choir but by the time we’ve finished. I’m glad I came,” said Mary. Research says choir singing is really good for you. By watching the health signs of members of a choir, Bjorn Vickoff at a University in Sweden discovered the singers’ hearts started to beat in step with their breathing. There seemed to be a wave of air moving through the group, making them feel connected as one. Research has shown that choir singing has comforting influences similar to those that come from breathing exercises in yoga. Singing also produces hormones and other happy chemicals, fighting against depression and loneliness. Singers have been found to have lower levels of stress after choir singing. And a later study also found that singing reduces anxiety and that group singing can be especially good for the health of older adults. At the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, choir after choir was put on stage by singers with no big names. But this is real music to Tony Backhouse’s ears. The choirmaster spent thirty years in Australia founding and working with choral groups. “If I were asked to redesign the Australian educational system, I would start by strongly suggesting that group singing become a central part of daily activity. I believe it builds character and, more than anything else, encourages a taste for cooperation with others,” said Tony. For him, the meaning of group singing is “cooperation, rather than competition. Singing teaches us to listen, which is a great gift. In my community choir. It’s about creating something amazing together, and we really aim to make every rehearsal a thing of joy and beauty.” ( ) 31. What does the underlined word “sanity” probably mean in Paragraph 1? A. Peace. B. Plan. C. Duty. D. Sadness. ( ) 32. What did Bjorn Vickoff find in his research on choir members? A. Singers’ practice makes their hearts beat faster. B. Singers’ heartbeats match with their breathing. C. The stage air changes singers’ breathing speed. D. The watching machine changes singers’ heart rates. ( ) 33. Which of the following is an advantage of choir singing from the text? A. It makes people’s physical power stronger. B. It reduces the chemicals in our body. C. It can help people feel less stressed. D. It makes older adults happy forever. ( ) 34. What can we know from Tony Backhouse’s words about group singing? A. It is important for school education. B. It has become a part of education. C. It is good for students’ competition. D. It is more popular with famous singers. ( ) 35. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Why Andrew Ford loves singing. B. How to make choir more joyful. C. Different opinions about choirs. D. Great advantages of group singing. 【主旨大意】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了合唱不仅能让人身心愉悦、缓解压力与焦虑，还能促进人际联结，并强调其对个人成长和教育的重要价值。 31.A【31题详解】第二段提到“Mary works as a busy teacher”，后文又说Mary去完合唱团很开心，可知在忙碌压力下，合唱让她恢复平静，所以意思最接近Peace。 32.B【32题详解】第三段指出“…discovered the singers’ hearts started to beat in step with their breathing”，beat in step with 意为“与……同步、匹配”，对应match with their breathing，说明合唱团歌手的心跳会和呼吸同步。 33.C【33题详解】第四段指出“Singers have been found to have lower levels of stress after choir singing”，合唱后歌手的压力水平会降低，对应feel less stressed。 34.A【34题详解】第五段指出“If I were asked to redesign the Australian educational system, I would start by strongly suggesting that group singing become a central part of daily activity”，他认为合唱应成为教育核心部分，说明对学校教育很重要。 35.D【35题详解】整篇都在讲合唱的各种好处，所以主旨就是集体歌唱的巨大益处。 四、任务型阅读(共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) As we know, music plays an important role in our lives.

Listening to relaxing music before bed can help. Soft music like Bach or Mozart can calm your mind and body. A study shows that people who listen to relaxing music before bed will sleep better. 37 It’s much easier to remember a song than a long passage. You can turn what you need to remember into a fun song. For example, we all learned the ABCs with a simple song when we were kids.

They choose strong music to keep them full of power. Music makes doing something enjoyable in our lives. 39 Researchers suggest that listening to music can be a nice experience.
