In all the world’s cultures, people sing, play instruments, and celebrate with music. It plays such an important role in our lives that people devote much time to its study. Experts (专家) are finding that because of the 26 our brains deal with music, learning to play an instrument or just listening to music can have a large number of benefits (益处).
Music education has 27 a lot of attention. Learning to play an instrument can help children improve Maths, science, and language 28 . One study in Canada followed children’s IQ scores for nine months, 29 that children who studied music had the biggest test score improvements. This may be because reading music and playing notes (音符) uses several parts of the 30 , raising our ability to learn school subjects.
Music is also used for 31 purposes, such as the treatment of diseases which influence memory. Maybe this is because the brain deals with music. That’s 32 an old song can remind you of something that happened years ago. For patients suffering from diseases like Alzheimer’s, listening to music can help wake up hidden memories by building up musical pathways to memories.
Studies of the music and brain connection often focus on classical music, 33 it activates (激活) both the left and right sides of our brains. One study watched people’s brain activity as they listened to music by 34 William Boyce. It found that the brain activity was highest during the short breaks (中断) between the movements of a piece. During each break, the person’s brain expected what would come next, while organizing what he or she had just 35 . This process (过程) is similar to the way our brain organizes information. It may explain why classical music can help improve memory.

I’m learning English in the UK where I meet a lot of new friends and eat something delicious. Hot pot is many Chinese people’s favourite food, including me. After having three days of hamburgers, sandwiches and potatoes in the UK, how excited I was to know that there was going to be a free meal of hotpot to welcome the new students. On the way to the canteen, I seemed to smell the hot pot in the air.
To my surprise, when I stepped into the room, in front of me were still potatoes and bread. Where was the hot pot?
With many questions in my head, I sat down to have the free meal. After talking with a French girl, I got to know that hot pot is completely different from hotpot. Chinese hot pot is written in two words and hotpot, one word, is a traditional English dish.
Hotpot is made from mutton(羊肉) and onion. On the top there are sliced potatoes. People put it on the stove all day in a heavy pot and on a low heat. You can often see it at parties in the UK because it’s easy to prepare for a large number of people and not expensive.

Today I am going along with Rowan Dougall, a postman in Queensland in the far north of Australia, on his daily delivery (投递) trip. Every day, Rowan sets off with his post bags in the tail
of his little plane—not much bigger than a large family car, and flies across one of the wildest places on Earth, Australia’s Cape North, to reach the very faraway inland areas called the Outback.
We fly just 300 metres above dangerous crocodiles (鳄鱼) and snakes. This is one of the
longest and most expensive postman trips in the world. However, a 50-cent stamp not only gets a letter posted to a neighbouring town, it will get it hand-delivered by flying postman to the furthest areas of the Outback. To help with the costs, the plane takes three or four paying local people or tourists, and I am one of them. In the back of the plane, there is a pile of post—envelopes of all sizes, newspapers, and a few parcels (包裹). Somehow I expected this post to look special, maybe to include some hats or cowboy boots, but this looks no more exciting than the post delivered to me in England. I look at some of the names and addresses, wondering about the people who are waiting for these letters and parcels.
Rowan’s route is 2,000 km long, with 15 stops, and I get a chance to meet Sandy, who has just received an order of clothes from a store. “I look forward to this weekly delivery,” she says, “but I do miss actually going shopping myself.” Rowan is checking the time. There are another ten stops
to make before dusk (黄昏). Time to leap back on the plane and up into the air.
41.What does the writer say about the cost of delivering to Cape North?
A.The sender pays more than the usual mail cost.
B.People in the Outback pay 50 cents for a delivery.
C.It may be possible to find a less expensive delivery.
D.The money passengers pay help to cover some of the cost.
42.What surprises the writer about the items of post on the plane?
A.The items seem to be in a mess.
B. Some of the items are very unusual.
C. The items are similar to his own post.
D. He can’t see clear names on the items.
43.When talking about the plane post service, Sandy says that .
A.she would like the service to be more often
B.the mail plane does not stop long enough there
C.she would like to be able to do her own shopping
D.there are many items that cannot be delivered to her
44.What is the writer’s main purpose in writing the text?
A.To describe postal delivery services in the Outback.
B.To show the wild beauty of the Australian Outback.
C.To warn about the dangers to postmen in the Outback.
D.To get more support for postal services in the Outback.
45.What might the writer say to a friend when he gets back to England?
A.The post plane is too small for the post that has to be delivered.
B.Only tourists are allowed to go as passengers on the post plane.
C.The postman has to fly the plane himself and deliver everything by hand.
D.The delivery could be faster if the postman spent less time talking to local people.

“He took out an old map to me, “This map has been in my family for hundreds of years,” he said, “it will make you the richest in the world.” Then he died.”
I took the map out of my pocket and passed to Sir Henry. Sir Henry read the writing: “I am Silverter. I am in a cave north of the mountain. I am dying of hunger. With my own eyes I have seen the diamonds in Solomon’s treasure cave behind the white Death. If you do find it, you will be a rich man!”
I took back the map and put it in my pocket.“It is an amazing story.” Sir Henry said.
“Yes.” I said. “But I have not invented it.” I stood up and left angrily. I thought they were doubting my story.

Alison Cooper is over 90, but she can still play a game of Words with Friends , a popular puzzle game app, on her iPad. She says that the Apple product has changed her life.
Mrs. Cooper lives in a house close to Manchester Airport in London. She often uses her iPad to track the planes that fly overhead and explore the world with Google Earth.

Mrs. Cooper taught painting when she left school. She had a laptop (手提电脑), but struggled (费力) with it. “ Her problem was that she couldn't see the cursor(光标) , and her hands shake so hard that she almost can’t use the mouse.” said her 63-year-old daughter, Jean Holt, from Chester. “I was in America visiting my daughter, and I played with an iPad and decided to buy one for my mother.”

例文:
Act Now to Protect the environment
Pollution problems are becoming more and more serious now. People throw away a lot of rubbish. More and more land is polluted. Waste water pours into rivers, lakes and fields. What’s worse, it pollutes the plants in the fields. Noise pollution is also around us, so it’s difficult for us to study or work well. We can’t even have a good rest in the noisy environment. The problems are so serious that we should act now to protect the environment.
We have only one Earth. Everyone should keep the environment clean and tidy. It’s also necessary to stop people around us from polluting the environment. In my opinion, laws should be made to stop people from polluting the Earth. Let’s start out small and make our home more and more beautiful.
