The following are about modern wonders of the world.The Suez CanalMore than 3, 000 years ago, a king of Egypt ordered that a river be built to connect the Mediterranean. Sea (地中海) and the Red Sea. This kind of man-made river is called a canal. However, ancient Egyptians did not keep this canal in use. As years passed, the sands of the great deserts of Egypt closed the small canal.In 1859, Egyptian workers began rebuilding the canal. It was opened and named the Suez Canal on November I7th, 1869. Though closed several times because of war or political problems, the Suez Canal is still the fastest crossing from the Atlantic Ocean to the Indian Ocean today, saving shipping companies a great deal of time and money.The Channel TunnelThe great canal connects oceans. The next great wonder connects land. It is called the Channel Tunnel, or “Chunnel”, connecting Britain with France. The tunnel is 50 kilometers long, built about 45 meters below the earth under the English. Channel (海峡).The work began in 1987 and it took seven years to finish. The cost was more than 13, 000 million dollars. The Chunnel opened In 1994.Today, the Chunnel is very busy. High-speed trains carry cars, trucks and passengers from Britain to France and back again. The trains are famous fortheir smooth, quiet ride. The money paid for the trip is slowly paying for the huge cost.The Three Gorges DarnThe Three Gorges Dam is perhaps the largest construction project on earth. The work began, in 1993.The Three Gorges Dam is built to produce power and control China’s Yangtze River. The completed dam produces large amounts of electric power.Completed in 2009, the dam creates a huge lake about 632 square kilometers. Some critics say the dam harms the environment and damages historical areas. More than one million people had been resettled before the dam was finished. Chinese government officials say it will lead to increased economic development in cities near the dam, and the terrible floods caused by the Yangtze have become memories of the past.1. Which of the following took the longest time to build?A. The Red sea.B. The English Channel.C. The Chunnel.D. The Three Gorges Dam2.

What Ls the best way to catch someone who is telling a lie?For a long time, the traditional method of catching liars was to watch their body language, Many people - from parents to police officers depend on this method, But does a person’s body tell us the truth?According to a new study, it is not the case. Researchers in the UK recently found that talking seems to be the best way to smoke out a liar. Their study look place at an airport.The researchers asked volunteers to pretend they were real passengers and then lie to airport security officers. Some of the officers used conversation methods to question them, while other officers depend on their body language. The officers using the talking method were 20 times more likely to catch the liars.Like many methods, this talking technique has a name. It is called. Cant rolled Cognitive Engagement or CCE for short. Here are four ways of catching a liar.① Use open-ended questions.These are the opposite of “Yes” and “No” questions. Open-ended questions force the person to continue the story of their lies until they are caught in their own web of lies.② Surprise them.Ask questions they may not think you are going to ask. Ask questions that are surprising or off-topic. This will make it harder for them to keep lying.③ Look for sma ll details that do not make sense.Ask them details in their stories and look for facts that seem to disagree with each other. But do not let them know you know. Just let them dig themselves deeper into a hole.④ Watch for changes in confidence and speak ing styles.Liars will often change their speaking styles when they are questioned. For example, when they feel in control they may be very talkative. But if theyfeel they are losing control, they may not talk much at all.1. What is the best title of this passage?A. How to Catch a LiarB. Airport Security ImprovedC. CCE Method Never FailsD. Lie with Body Language2. Which of the following methods is most likely to help you catch a liar?A.

Which of the following is NOT true about the CCE method?A. It aims to smoke out liars through conversations.B. It works better than simply reading body languages.C.

How to Save More and Spend LessThere are many simple ways to save more money without feeling the pain. Youcan even turn it into a challenge or a game to make it more enjoyable.1.You went shopping and now your pocket is heavy with loose change. Count it, keep what you might need for bus tickets and put the rest in a piggy bank.After two months, empty the piggy bank and deposit(存储) the amount in your saving account.Give up your expensive habits.Cut down on the beer and cigarettes. Not only will this keep you healthier,but it’ll let you save up on unwanted expenses. 2. If you don’t stop now, you’ll end up paying a lot more for them anyway.Visit ATMs less often.Reducing the times you use the ATM can help you cut down on your costs. 3.By doing so you won’t have to make unnecessary withdrawals(取款).Use cash.Every time you use your credit card or cellphone to pay for something,you’re losing track of exactly how much you’ re spending.

Here are some of the most beautiful places around the world.Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, UgandaBwindi Impenetrable Forest is one of the last harbors of the mountain gorilla (大猩猩). Several hundred call this UNESCO World Heritage Site home, with the chance for visitors hike and meet habituated groups. Its biodiversity extends far beyond its most famous inhabitants. However -almost 350 bird species and around 220 butterfly species can be found within its 331-square-kilometer expanse.Samburu, KenyaThanks to its relative inaccessibility in the heart of Kenya, Samburu is a haven (避难所) for some of Africa’s most charming wildlife.

Best explored on foot, its back trails make for an easy way to escape the crowds and find the best views. As the mists fall, it’s easy to sea why this area has long been an inspiration for traditional Chinese paintings.The MaldivesThe sand of its 1,200 islands is as white as it gets, and the water is a deep blue that puts all other seas in the shade. The Indian Ocean nation of the Maldives has developed into the world’s premier tropical hot spot for a reason.

But this passenger was a much different story. Magdalen is a 13-year old dog. Her owner gave her up temporarily when he was sick, but when he fully recovered several months later, he said he didn’t want her back. He had her since she was young but now had no place for her.The family who had given her a temporary home had children and other dogs and was unable to give her a forever home. When Speak St, Louis, the rescue team I work with, was contacted about the dog, they offered to take her in. She went to a vet (兽医) for a basic health check. But the vet didn’t have great news. Her mouth was swollen (肿胀的) with all sorts of problems. Two teeth fell out during cleaning and eleven more had to be pulled out.Luckily, a good friend of mine, a dog trainer with a soft heart for seniors, had agreed to adopt Magdalen. On the trip to the trainer’s home, the sweet senior looked so relaxed in our backseat. I felt a great sense of relief and pleasure.Her owner needed some temporary help when he was sick. But I can’t imagine why he wouldn’t have wanted her back. I think of my own dog and dogs we lost to old age in the past. We’re family and we stay that way forever. She’d be able to live a good life. I hoped, in her new home!4.What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A.The former owners of the dog.B.Where the dog was treated.C.What the dog needed most.D.The problems the dog met.5.What is the author’s job?A.Training old dogs.B.Treating sick dogs.C.Looking for homes for dogs.D.Looking for lost dogs’ owners.6.How did the author feel on her way to her friend’s home?A.Relieved and happy. B.Nervous and grateful.C.Surprised and curious. D.Hopeful and proud.7.What does the author think of Magdalen’s owner giving her up?A.She didn’t understand his behaviour.B.She believed it was painful for him.C.She was certain he would regret.D.She thought he made a wise decision.Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has. There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.We experience this, tiredness in two ways: as start-up fatigue (疲惫) and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keep putting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult. And the longer we delay it, the more tired we feel.Such start-up fatigue is very real, even if not actually physical, not something in our muscles and bones. The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply: always handle the most difficult job first.Years ago, I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors. Applying my own rule, I determined to write them in alphabetical (按字母顺序), never letting myself leave out a tough idea. And I always started the day’s work with the difficult task of essay-writing. Experience proved that the rule works.Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle. Though willing to get started, we cannot seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear so great that, bow ever hard we work, we fail again and again. In such a situation, I work as hard as I can - then let the unconscious take over.When planning Encyclopedia Britannica (《大英百科全书》), I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles. Nothing like this had ever been done before, and day after day I kept coming up with solutions, but none of them worked. My fatigue became almost unbearable.One day, mentally exhausted, I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved. I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself, not with me. Relieved, I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind. In the weeks that followed, the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step. Though I worked as hard as before, I felt no fatigue. Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.Human beings, I believe must try to succeed. Success, then, means never feeling tired.8.What does the author recommend doing to prevent start-up fatigue?A.Writing essays in strict order.B.Building up physical strength.C.Leaving out the toughest ideas.D.Dealing with the hardest task first.9.On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue? A.Before starting a difficult task.B.When all the solutions fail.C.If the job is rather boring.D.After finding a way out.10.According to the author, the unconscious mind may help us ________ . A.ignore mental problemsB.get some nice sleepC.gain complete reliefD.find the right solution11.What could be the best title for the passage?A.Success Is Built upon FailureB.How to Handle Performance FatigueC.Getting over Fatigue: A Way to SuccessD.Fatigue: An Early Sign of Health ProblemsKite surfing is a sport that takes place on the surface of the water, on top of boards that are similar in design to wakeboards (尾波滑水板), with the surfer pulled by a kite. The popularity of kite surfing has grown, although it is rather difficult to master. Kite surfing uses the same equipment as kite boarding, but is generally given more to riding on top of waves, rather than on smaller lakes or other calm bodies of water.Early experiments in kite transportation took place through the 19th century, and at the dawn of the 20th century Samuel Cody crossed the English Channel using kites and a small boat. Kite surfing itself, however, wasn’t really born until the late 1970s. Beginning in that decade, more people became involved in using kites for personal transport and sport. Kite technology itself advanced enormously during the 1970s, with kites becoming much more controllable.The early kite surfing was rather accidental, but innovators continued to develop the technology to make it easier to control and safer. By the late 1990s, kite surfing was becoming popular off the coast of Maui, France and throughout the world. In 1997, a special kite system was built specifically for kite surfing, which helped kite surfing into the mainstream.Because of the high speeds and the dangers, it is generally recommended that would-be kite surfers take at least a few basic classes to learn the fundamentals.The main attraction of kite surfing is the potential for amazing tricks. The kite allows the surfer to experience enormous jumps, flying through the air for large distances before hitting the water in a controlled fashion. Like skateboarding, kite surfing makes use of a number of board grabs, with complex tricks possible due to the long period of time the surfer can remain in the air.12.What does the author mainly intend to tell us in Paragraph 1?A.What is kite surfing. B.Where to go kite surfing.C.How to enjoy kite surfing. D.Why people like kite surfing.13.In the 19th century, people intended to use kite for ________.A.sport B.experimentC.entertainment D.transportation14.What can we know from the third paragraph?A.Kite surfing often leads to accidents.B.Maui is home to kite surfing.C.Kite control is the key to kite surfing.D.Kite surfing came into being in the 1990s.15.What is most charming for people surfing?A.Its potential for tricks. B.Its long time in the air.C.Its speed across the water. D.Its big distance over the water.二、七选五Here’s How To Have A Calmer Sunday NightFor most people, the end of the weekend isn’t a welcome time. 16 .

However,because Leonardo was born to parents who were not married to each other,he was barred from some studies and professions.He trained as an artist after moving to Florence with his father in the 1460s.It was an exciting time to be in Florence,one of the cultural capitals of Europe.Leonardo trained with one of the city's very successful artists,Andrea del Verrocchio.He was a painter,sculptor and gold worker.Verrocchio told his students that they needed to understand the body's bones and muscles when drawing people.Leonardo took the teacher's advice very seriously.He spent several periods of his life studying the human body by taking apart and examining dead bodies.While training as anartist,Leonardo also learned about and improved on relatively new painting methods at the time.One was the use of perspective(透视)to show depth.A method called "sfumato" helped to create a cloudy effect to suggest distance. "Chiaroscuro" is a method using light and shade as a painterly effect.Leonardo's first known portrait now hangs in the National Gallery in Washington,D.C.He made this painting of a young woman named Ginevra de' Benci around 1474.The woman has a pale face with dark hair.In the distance,Leonardo painted the Italian countryside.He soon received attention for his extraordinary artistic skills.Around 1475 he was asked todraw an angel in Verrocchio's painting The Baptism of Christ.One story says that when Verrocchio saw Leonardo's addition to the painting,he was so amazed by his student's skill that he said he would never paint again.4.What does the underlined word "barred" mean in Paragraph 2?______A. Saved.B. Stopped.C. Protected.D. Separated.5.What made Leonardo interested in studying the human body?______A. His own desire.B. His parents' request.C. His teacher's suggestion.D.

You've probably seen stickers on fruits before,but not like the ones created by Stixfresh.Those common stickers are used only to provide consumers with information about the grower and how the fruit was grown,but Stixfresh has a different purpose.It contains a special,all-natural way that slows down the ripening process,keeping the fruit fresh and juicy for much longer. Stixfresh are made with 100% organic materials and contain a mixture of ionized(电离)Sodium Chloride and beeswax,which helps slow down the bacterial activity in the fruit,thus delaying the ripening process.The company insists that the stickers are so safe that you canactually eat them.Stixfresh founder Zhafri Zainudin says that he came up with the idea for the stickers four years ago,after visiting a friend who sold fruit.The man complained about losing money every day due to spoiled fruits,but seemed resigned(顺从的),as he knew there was no way to stop nature taking its course.However,the Malaysian entrepreneur had another idea."It got me to thinking.Maybe I couldn't stop nature,but could I slow it down?" Zainudin writes on his company's website.The Malaysian businessman partnered with Selangor University to develop and test his stickers.It took him three years to perfect the manufacturing process and effect of his innovative product.Originally,Stixfresh stickers were only used to prolong the shelf-life of mangos,but the company later realized that they also worked on other fruits of the same size and with similar texture,like dragon fruit and pears.8.What is the problem with fruits and vegetables?______A. They rot away before sale.B. They are wasted by consumers.C. They aren't ripe enough before harvests.D. There are too many of them to be eaten in time.9.What is special of the sticker created by Stixfresh?______A. It records the products growing information.B. It contains information of growing products.C. It shows how to delay their ripening process.D. It tells ways to use organic materials properly.10.Zhafri Zainudin mentioned his visit to a fruit seller friend to show ______ .A. his friend's poor lifeB. his good relationship with himC. how he cared about fruit salersD. how the stickers came into being11.Which of the following do Stixfresh stickers go for?______A. Apples.B. Grapes.C. Bananas.D. Watermelons.DLanguages have been coming and going for thousands of years,but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going.When the world was still populated byhunter-gatherers,small,tightly knit (联系)groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other.Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago,when the world had just five to ten million people,they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them. Soon afterwards,many of those people started settling down to become farmers,and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number.In recentcenturies,trade,industrialization,the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education,especially globalization and better communications in the past few decades,all have caused many languages to disappear,and dominant languages such as English,Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present,the world has about 6,800 languages.The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven.The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages,often spoken by many people,which hot,wet zones have lots,often spoken by small numbers.Europe has only around 200 languages;the Americas about 1,000;Africa 2,400;and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200,of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800.The median number (中位数)of speakers is a mere 6,000,which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages and close to extinction(消亡),with only a few elderly speakers left.Pick,at random,Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers),Chiapaneco in Mexico(150),Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three)or Wadjigu in Australia (one,with a question-mark):none of these seems to have much chance of survival.12.What can we know about languages in hunter-gatherer times?______A. They disappeared soon.B. They had most speakers.C. They were large in number.D. They were mixed together.13.What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2?______A. Why many languages disappeared.B. How languages became more settled.C. What happened in the past few decades.D. How many dominant languages formed.14.What is the general rule of the distribution of languages?______A. Asia has the most languages in the world.B. Hot,wet zones have the fewest languages.C. Half of the world's population speak 6,000 languages.D. Mild zones have more people speaking fewer languages.15.Which of the following can be the best title?______A. The Worldwide Distribution of LanguagesB. The Development of Languages in the WorldC. Human Development Results in Fewer LanguagesD. Location Decides the Number of Language Speakers二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共15.0分)What do you want to be when you grow up?Perhaps you've been asked the question some times.When you are asked the question,did you have an answer at the ready?(1)______ We all have dreams of becoming something great,like a fireman,a teacher,or a rock star.Well,how did you do?Maybe you never desire to be what you set out to be or said that you would become.

山西省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(带答案解析)
山西省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(带答案解析)(满分:150分;考试时间:120分钟)学校:___________班级:___________姓名:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解The village of Hallstatt in Austria is a collection of old buildings. In summer, the mountains are green and the village is lovely. In winter, it’s like something out of a snow-covered fairy tale. Now it is being overrun with tourists, partly because it looks like the village from the movie Frozen. The town’s mayor is actually hoping that many tourists will stay away.Hallstatt is small. Fewer than 800 people live there. But the number of visitors who arrive each day is huge — up to 10,000 visitors a day. Hallstatt’s popularity first began when it became a World Heritage Site in 1997. But the number of visitors increased quickly after the release of Disney’s movie Frozen in 2013. Though much of Frozen was based on life in Norway, Hallstatt looks a lot like Arendelle, the main village in the movie. Some people believe that Arendelle was based on Hallstatt.Much of the tourism is driven by social media. Many of the visitors seem mainly interested in taking photos with the village in the background. Some local people feel stressed about it. With 10,000 visitors a day, that’s over 12 tourists for every person in Hallstatt. One man said his mother had woken up one day to find tourists in her bedroom.The mayor would prefer to have fewer tourists. He thinks the town would be just fine with about one third fewer visitors each year. Starting from this year, Hallstatt will begin a program to reduce the number of buses bringing visitors to the village.Before the tourism boomed, local people would leave Hallstatt to find work. Now many people depend upon the tourists for their living. Hotel rooms can cost between $350 and $450. And it costs over one dollar to use the public bathroom in Hallstatt. With 10,000 visitors a day, even toilets can be good business.1.What do we know about the village of Hallstatt in Austria?A.It has appeared in many famous movies.B.It is beautiful but crowded with tourists.C.It has a small population for its bad weather.D.It is an old village with poor customer service.2.What did the man mentioned in Paragraph 3 want to express?A.Visitors were welcome to stay at local homes.B.Local life was badly influenced by visitors.C.Social media brought visitors to his village.D.The locals had a close relationship with visitors.3.Which of the following best explains the word “boom” in the last Paragraph? A.Sigh. B.Drop. C.Decline. D.Rocket.4.What can we conclude from the text?A.Hallstatt is having fewer visitors for the high cost.B.Local people are satisfied with their life in Hallstatt.C.Tourism brings both trouble and benefits to local people.D.Local people have difficulty improving the housing service.Marie Lantelme! The name struck me from somewhere in the back of my mind. Miss Lantelme, as I called her in my youth, worked as a librarian at the East Meadow Public Library when I was a pre-teen girl.On one occasion, in search of a book to read, I walked slowly over to the desk taken up by a librarian-Miss Lantelme. Serious, polite, and speaking with the voice of a professional(专业的) librarian, she asked what kind of book I liked to read.I thought about it for a few seconds and replied, “Mysteries(悬疑小说).” When I first learned to read, my grandfather gave me a book called The Smugglers of Sandy Bay. It was written by Ruth Holberg and still takes a place in my book collection.I sometimes hold it in my hand to reconnect with its mystical power.Miss Lantelme told me to follow her, and she led me into the mystery part and pointed me in the direction of books written by Agatha Christie. Miss Lantelme handed me a book called The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. I will not tell the ending to anyone who has never read that book, but I loved the surprise that I never saw coming. Everyweek I dug deep into the works of that uncommon writer whose stories still attract me now.On one occasion, Miss Lantelme handed me a book written by John le Carre. The title of the book is The Spy Who Came in from the Cold. For years, I waited for each new book by the recognized master of spy thrillers. Of course, I wished Miss Lantelme to hand the new mystery of John le Carre to me.All these memories flashed through my mind while I sweated my way through my work—out of breath, giving thanks to the librarians of the world, like Miss Lantelme, who gave me a lifetime of joy, not only the stories.5.What made the author interested in mysteries?A.The book her grandfather gave to her. B.The unknown feeling of a pre-teen girl.C.The professional service of Lantelme. D.The opinion her grandfather gave to her.6.What can we infer about the author from paragraph 3?A.She was interested in Agatha’s works B.She took exercise around the library.C.She bought a book from Lantelme. D.She went to Lantelme’s home. 7.Which is the best title for the text?A.An Impressive Book B.Lifelong Joy from My GrandfatherC.A Happy Memory for the Books D.Three Books the Author Wanted to ReadFamous Drama Theater Performances In The WorldTheater is indeed one of the arts which will usually be staged in opera houses with various stories that they will pick up. For those of you who are very fond of theater, here we will give some theatrical dramas that are very famous in the world.A Streetcar Named DesireThis drama is one of the most famous theatrical dramas in history, even still playing regularly in the Broadway theater.It tells of a family that is very rich because of the inheritance (遗产), but it turns out all his inheritance is fake (假的).Then there will be a lesson that you can learn from this one drama; an inheritance is a very dangerous treasure to expect.Long Day’s Journey Into NightThis drama is set in the family O’Neill who has family members with strange habits.Starting from the story of his mother who is a morphine (吗啡) addict,then also his father who suddenly can disappear and also many more other family habits are abnormal. But you need to know that this drama is the shortest. only told in the life of the family one day alone.FencesIt is also one of the dramas that entered the Oscar Nominations in 2017. But the first appearance of this drama was so long ago. That was in 1985. Drama Fences raised the story of the treatment provided by the American and also African who received unpleasant treatment or racist treatment. and was trying to get out of the problem.Who’s Afraid of Virginia WoolfThis one tells about the badness of a household which is caused by the twist plot storyt hat becomes very interesting at the end of the story. This comedy drama is also the play of a song made by Walt Disney who then inspired and lifted into one of the interesting stories to be on display in theatrical plays.8.What can we learn from the drama A Streetcar Named Desire?A.It tells of a story about a rich man.B.The family in the drama is very generous.C.The inheritance in the story is some gold.D.The drama is performed regularly in the Broadway theater.9.Which drama will you go to if you are interested in racism in America?

B.Historical. C.Documentary. D.Horrible.Textile(纺织品)waste is a growing problem for our environment. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reported the US throws away more than 11 million tons of clothing every year. That is why some small businesses spotting the problem are beginning to recycle in ways they haven’t before.Create Good Company is a clothing company that tries to produce sustainable clothing and repurpose older clothing into updated fashionable items. Maggie Hendricks, the owner of Create Good Company, said, “If you can improve what you find, why wouldn’t you do that instead of buying new things? It’s a big issue not to create new waste. I would say we are 90% recycled materials.”According to the EPA, the average consumer(消费者)throws away 81.5 pounds of clothes every year. “Anywhere between 10%-17% of the waste that’s going into landfills(废弃物填埋场)is made up of things like textiles and clothing,” said Danny Katz with the CoPIRG Foundation. “A lot of the clothing that we’re producing doesn’t even get worn, so it’s going right to the landfill or even being burned and contributing to pollution that way. It’s really worrying.”This is why businesses like Create Good Company exist —to use outdated clothing and turn it into dresses or jackets. “There’s just so much waste and so many big companies that might not think about it,” Hendricks said. “Just standing with other like-minded people who are interested in sustainability is important.”Another important element Hendricks has focused on is creating these items and selling them at an affordable price. “Sustainability sometimes is green washed in companies and they make things more expensive,” Hendricks said. “That’s not how we become a sustainable world. I think making products affordable is important to me. I want to buy things that are better for the environment without throwing my pocketbook in the fire.”11.What makes Danny Katz worried?A.The use of old clothing. B.The cost of textile pollution. C.The effect of clothing waste. D.The future of the textile industry.12.What does Hendricks care more about when it comes to a sustainable product? A.Its price. B.Its sales.C.Its producer. D.Its quality.13.What is the best title for the text?A.The EPA’s measures to reduce textile waste.B.Consumers being aware of the seriousness of textile waste.C.Textile businesses’ social responsibility and their waste.D.Small businesses working to prevent textile waste.二、七选五MuzakThe next time you go into a bank, a store, or a supermarket, stop and listen. What do you hear? 14 . It's similar to the music you listen to, but it's not exactly the same. That's because this music was especially designed to relax you, or to give you extra energy. Sometimes you don't even realize the music is playing, but you react to the music anyway.Quiet background music used to be called "elevator (电梯) music" because we often heard it in elevators. But lately we hear it in more and more places, and it has a new name "Muzak". About one-third of the people in America listen to "Muzak" every day. The music plays for 15 minutes at a time, with short pauses in between. It is always more lively between ten and eleven in the morning, and between three and four in the afternoon, when people are more tired. 15 .If you listen to Muzak carefully, you will probably recognize the names of many of the songs. Some musicians or songwriters don't want their songs to be used as Muzak, but others are happy when their songs are chosen. Why? 16 .Music is often played in public places because it is designed to make people feel less lonely when they are in an airport or a hotel. It has been proven that Muzak doeswhat it is designed to do. Tired office workers suddenly have more energy when they hear the pleasant sound of Muzak in the background. 17 . Supermarket shoppers buy 38 percent more groceries.18 . They say it's boring to hear the same songs all the time. But otherpeople enjoy hearing Muzak in public places. They say it helps them relax and feel calm. One way or another, Muzak affects everyone. Some farmers even say their cows give more milk when they hear Muzak!A.Some people don't like Muzak.B.The music gives them extra energy.C.Music is playing in the background.D.Factory workers produce 13 percent more.E.Muzak tends to help people understand music better.F.They get as much as $4 million a year if their songs are used.G.Muzak is played in most of the big supermarkets in the world.三、完形填空In the dead of last winter during the pandemic, the Berman family chose to fosterin all moved into their new home at the Canine Humane Network, a nonprofit rescuefrom their 31 on how they’re doing.”To date, the Bermans have 32 12 dogs from the Highland organizationin the past year.
