Sandra Siedliecki is a Senior Scientist at the Nursing Institute of Cleveland Clinic in Ohio. She says music is a low-cost treatment. And she says scientists have done a lot of research on music’s effect on pain. Dr. Marian Good did a lot of studies looking at surgery(外科) patients and the use of music. In her studies, patients just listened to relaxing music. Dr. Good found that her surgery patients took fewer painkillers after they listened to music. Music had a good effect on short-term pain. However, chronic pain, the kind that recurs(复发) continually, changed a little under the effect of music.

My mother worked at Sears, a big department store. But they were both musicians.”Michael’s father Joe Jackson realized his sons had a lot of talent, and he knew he could train them to become fine musicians. In those days there were plenty of music groups and some of them were very good. He knew if his sons were to stand out, they would have to be the best.Practice makes perfect.

In the following years, Michael was always on the top. One million records of his were sold in New Zealand, which has only a total population of three million!When Michael was eighteen, he entered another field of his career(生涯)—acting. “I plan to star in movies,” he told his friends, “but of course, my first love is music.”Michael wrote a lot of his own songs. “Songs came about in the strangest ways,” he said. “I’ll just wake up from sleeping and there is a whole song coming into my head.

Among the works and masterworks on exhibition the visitor will find the best pieces, most importantly The Persistence of Memory.

The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with the visitor exiting through the brain.The exhibition shows how Dali draws the viewer between two infinities(无限). “From the infinity small to the infinity large, contraction and expansion coming in and out of focus: amazing Flemish accuracy and the showy Baroque of old painting that he used in his museum-theatre in Figueras,” explains the Pompidou Centre.The fine selection of the major works was done in close collaboration(合作)with the Museo Nacional Reina Sofia in Madrid, Spain, and with contributions from other institutions like the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida.8.

Unit5 Music单元自主综合测试时间:100分钟满分:120分选择题部分第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
AThe blues was born in the Mississippi Delta (三角洲) area sometime in the late 1800s. The music is rooted in African American slave spiritual and work songs.Life was hard for black people in the US. Slavery technically had ended, but poverty and unjust laws kept people from full freedom. Some former slaves stayed in the South and continued to work on farms, often for their former owners. Much of the work was outside in the fields, in the unforgiving heat of the Mississippi sun.Roger Stolle is a Mississippi blues historian. He says a culture of singing helped people deal with the hardships. People sang spirituals at church and work songs in the fields to make the days go by. Over time,this music developed into what people now call “the blues”.As the blues grew in popularity, musicians began to perform around the Delta. Some, like B.B. King or John Lee Hooker, would travel to the city of Memphis, Tennessee, to establish professional music careers.The blues is both American and foreign. The blues historian Scott Barretta says many elements of the blues—including singing styles, rhythm and instrument playing—are African and were brought to the US by those who had been enslaved. Baretta also notes the patterns to the lyrics. “The blues follows an A, A, B lyrical style ... What we mean by that, is that when you perform the blues, you're often singing a verse, repeating the verse, and then there's an answer line. That's a style of music which we didn't really see before around 1900.”When it comes to the words, many musicians sing about difficulties from their own life stories. Holmes is among them. “I don't sing about lies, I tell the truth! ... True blues, the lyrics are absolutely true. They sing about life experience. Sometimes good, sometimes bad, but they didn't lie.” Eightyfiveyearold bluesmusician Leo “Bud” Welch agrees. “Well, the blues isn't nothing but some good men or women feeling bad. It's about life.”1.Why does the author write the second paragraph?A.To introduce the background of the blues.B.To describe the hard life of slaves.C.To tell the readers about the weather in the South.D.To discuss the social problems in the South.2.What do we know about the blues?A.The blues didn't exist until 1900.B.The blues was developed by American singers.C.The blues helped people make the hard days go by.D.The blues reflects the sad feelings of people.3.We can infer from the passage that________.A.the hard life in Mississippi Delta gave birth to the bluesB.the blues is based on the musicians' true life storiesC.black people had no freedom in the US at that timeD.the blues is a music style that is popular in the USBHis talent and charm have made him the No.1 Chinese classical artist in the world. He played in the grand Beijing Olympic opening ceremony in 2008, watched by a TV audience of 5 billion.Lang Lang is the first Chinese pianist to play with the world's top orchestras,making his debut at the Carnegie Hall in New York at 18, while still a student.Lang Lang's charm and fondness for sharp clothes make him a natural fit to represent China's new international image. According to the British newspaper the Times, “The Lang Lang's effect” is responsible for driving 36 million Chinese children to learn the piano.Now in China children are learning Chopin and Western orchestras are playing sold-out tours across Chinese cities. But can China introduce its own music to the west? Lang is trying. His cooperation with the London Symphony Orchestras this month includes a performance of Dragon Songs, an album of traditional Chineseclassics.Behind the international recognition, however, is a fascinating story of a gifted child. Lang grew up with his father's own musical ambition and high expectations. It is not hard to imagine how boring it must be to practice the piano every day. Lang said that he once hated his hands and the piano. He injured his right hand six years ago and had to rest. “That was the best month,” he says, without hesitation. “I had a date. I saw a Broadway show and saw Britney Spears in concert.”4.Which of the following is NOT the reason why Lang Lang is the No.1 Chinese classical artist in the world?A.He has as many as 5 billions fans in China.B.He played in the Beijing Olympic opening ceremony.C.He is the first Chinese pianist to play with the world's top orchestras.D.He plays the piano so well and has a good international image.5.The underlined word “debut” in the second paragraph probably means ________.A.first class B.first performanceC.first plan D.first choice6.From the passage we can learn that ________.A.Lang is making efforts to promote Chinese music to the worldB.Lang didn't play the piano well when he was littleC.he was happy to practice the piano every dayD.he injured his right hand carelessly six years ago7.What's the main idea of the last paragraph?A.The sad story of Lang's father.B.Lang's gift from his father.C.Lang's special childhood life.D.Lang's date with his girlfriend.CWhat do you think of 80s pop music? Do the names George Michael, Madonna and Michael Jackson sound familiar?Well, these are just some of the names that were well-known in the music scene P of the 80s and early 90s. The 80s pop musicscene was an important step to the popularity of present day music. A new wave in the music scene was introduced, which made such music styles as punk rock, rap music and the MTV popular. Although it was an end to the old 60s and 70s styles, it was also the beginning of something big. The popularity of music videos meant that artists now replaced their guitar-based music with visual displays. A new wave of artists came on the scene and the entire industry developed quickly.The most famous 80s pop music video is Michael Jackson's Thriller. Introduced in 1982, few people can forget the video not only because of its never before seen images, but also because of the popularity it received. Think too of how 80s pop music changed the lives of people who grew up in the 80s. Ask a young man today to tell you the names of the “New Kids on the Block” and he will start talking about the neighbor kids who just moved in. These are not the answers you might have heard in the 80s. Though today's young men do not recognize how cool 80s pop music was, most people will always remember it for what it was and these are happy memories they will always love.Some of the 80s pop music legends include Madonna, U2, AeroSmith and of course the King of Pop Michael Jackson. Let's not forget Prince, Tina Turner, Phil Collins and Motown's Lionel Ritchie. Some of these musicians played music that has stood the test of time. Undoubtedly,the 80s pop music scene will live on for many more years to come.8.What is the text mainly about?A.The characters of 80s pop music.B.The effects of 80s pop music.C.80s pop music's steps to popularity.D.What made 80s pop music popular.9.80s pop music mainly includes the following styles EXCEPT ________.A.rap music B.the MTVC.guitar-based music D.punk rock10.Michael Jackson's Thriller impressed people so deeply mainly because________.A.it was made into a music videoB.he sang it in a special styleC.it changed the lives of peopleD.it left people with happy memories11.The purpose of the last paragraph is to tell readers that ________.A.80s pop music is now out of dateB.80s pop music has many faultsC.80s pop music is and will remain popularD.we shouldn't forget the great musicians of the 80sDIn all the world's cultures, people sing, play instruments, and celebrate with music. It plays such an important role in our lives that all fields focus on its study, including one looking at the biology of music. Experts find that because of the way our brains process music, learning to play an instrument or just listening to music can have a wide range of benefits.Music education has received a lot of attention. Learning to play an instrument can help children improve math, science, and language skills. One study in Canada tracked children's IQ scores for nine months, discovering that children who studied music had the biggest test score improvements. The secret may lie in the way reading music and playing notes use several areas of the brain, increasing our ability to learn school subjects. For example, reading notes improves spatial (空间的) reasoning skills, which are helpful in solving math problems like fractions (分数).Music is also used for medical purposes, such as the treatment of diseases which affect memories. The secret lies in the way the brain processes music. One area near the forehead, the medial prefrontal cortex, connects music with memories stored in two other areas: the amygdale and hippocampus. That's why 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 unlock buried memories by strengthening musical pathways to memories.With the evidence of music's benefits, it's no wonder some countries make music study a part of their education systems. People are recognizing that more than just a form of entertainment, music is also great for the brain.12.According to the Canadian study, which children increased IQ scores?A.Those who already had high IQ scores.B.Those who had always played music.C.Those who could not play any instrument.D.Those who studied music for a period of time.13.Which of the following is a kind of disease?A.Spatial reasoning.B.Alzheimer's.C.The amygdale and hippocampus.D.The medial prefrontal cortex.14.Which can be the best title for the text?A.Music and health B.Music and the mindC.Music and education D.Music and instruments15.Scientists are studying music because ________.A.music can be used for medical treatmentsB.music plays a very important role in our livesC.our brains can process music in different waysD.music education has received a lot of attention第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AThe term country music refers to a variety of styles,originally popular among working class white Americ ans in the rural areas of the South and West.Originally known as “hillbilly music”,the term was replaced by country and western music in 1949 and eventually shortened to country music.But the origins of country music go way back a century ago,to the waves of immigrants from Britain and Ireland.Their songs and dances,nursery rhymes and ballads,would form the most important part of the folk musical tradition of rural America,and the basis for what became known as “old time”music.These roots of country music lie largely in the folk songs and instrumental music of the English,Irish,and Scots who settled in the Appalachian areas of the MidSouth during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.Many of these mountainous areas were not settled until the 1830s,and then by impoverished immigrants who were concerned with the daily struggle for survival.The communities were cut off from the rest of America and still attached to their traditions.Other origins of country music can be traced back to the flamenco and habanera music of Spain,the polka and other dances of Eastern Europe and—as with almost all the popular music of the United States—the influence of the slave populations shipped from the African continent.In fact one of the major instruments in Appalachian and early country music,the banjo,has its origins in AfroAmerican history.Two publishing events in the early part of the 20th century excited a widespread interest in America's white musical tradition and “old time” music.First,in 1910,the musicologist John Lomax published Co w boy Songs and Other Frontier Ballads.Then in 1916 the English song collector Cecil Sharp put together a collection of folk music from the Appalachian mountains.But it wasn't until 1922,when Texas fiddler(小提琴家) Eck Robertson cut the firs t record of “old time”music,that the popularity of what also became known as“hillbilly music”really began to grow,via pioneering artists,record labels and radio stations.The record that more generally gets cited as the first country release was made in June 1923 by Fiddlin' John Carson.21.What does the text mainly discuss?A.The history of the US folk music.B.The origins of country music.C.The influence of “old time” music.D.The waves of immigrants in the US.22.The underlined word “impoverished” in Paragraph 3 most probably means“______”.A.brave B.poor C.legal D.kind23.Who made a great contribution to the spread of Appalachian music?A.Fiddlin' John Carson. B.Eck Robertson.C.Cecil Sharp. D.John Lomax.24.Country music first became widely known in the ______.A.1830s B.1840s C.1910s D.1920sBMusic for Little Mozarts is a program designed to help your little ones develop a love of music.Learning music at an early age helps develop little minds and expand their cognitive(认知的)ability.While listening to music can certainly help your youngster pick up songs,actually learning to play the piano can help your child's education development.This program focuses on little creatures that both entertain and teach.By grasping the attention of a young child's mind and engaging them with stories along with hands on experience,you can provide them with a positive experience that just may fuel a little Mozart in later years.Within this multibook and multiyear lesson plan there are ten little characters that help draw the child into the lesson plan.These little creatures actually can be used to help the child grasp basic concepts in music.The series starts out in the preschool years and provides day by day lessons that can aid the child or a classroom of children right through early adolescence(青春期).The series is designed for both classroom and preschool use and for those at home with homeschoolers.It contains a series of books along with audio CDs,flash cards,and other visual aids that can help very young children develop an ear and an eye for music.It can be hard to hold the attention spans of children for very long.However,with the right creativity and the proper attention along with simple,easytomaster daily lessons,most children will not only grasp music rather quickly,they will also develop a love of real music,not just banging on a piano keyboard and making sounds.The short,daily lessons are planned out so that children learn to play music by ear.They learn to play real songs and master real passages quickly and easily.This element keeps them involved.They also master playing by ear and then later by reading rather quickly.25.This program is intended for children to ______.A.learn how to sing songs B.master playing the piano quicklyC.learn some basic music knowledge D.experience charm of music26.The underlined word “creatures” probably refers to ______.A.children to learn music B.the characters of the programC.cartoon animals D.education methods27.The last two paragraphs mainly tell the readers ______.A.what this program offers B.the relation between ear and musicC.it's more important to use ear than reading ability to learn musicD.this program is useful to develop children's love of music quicklyCSurfing the Internet for fun will make you a better employee,according to an Australian study.The University of Melbourne study shows that people who use the Internet for their own reasons at work are about 9 percent more productive than those who do not.Study author Brent Coker said,“Surfing the Internet at times helps increase an employee's attention.”“People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention,”Coker said on the university's website.“Having a short break,such as a quick surfing of the Internet,helps the mind to rest itself,leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day's work,and as a result,increases productivity(生产效率),”he said.According to the study of 300 workers,70 percent of the people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reasons during office hours.Among the most popular surfing activities are searching for information about products,reading online news,playing online games and watchingvideos.“Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their employees from watching video,using social networking sites or shopping online,”said Coker.“That's not always a good idea.”However,Coker said the study looked at people who surfed the Internet in moderation(适度),or were on the Internet for less than 20 percent of their total time in the office.“Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without,”he said.28.What does the University of Melbourne study mainly show?A.People who surf the Internet are good employees.B.Not everyone surfs the Internet for fun during office hours.C.Surfing the Internet for fun during office hours increases productivity.D.The Internet is becoming more and more important in people's life.29.According to Paragraph 3,Brent Coker would most probably agree that______.A.the longer a person's mind rests the better attention he will haveB.surfing the Internet is the best way to increase productivityC.workers should have a long break during office hoursD.workers should let their minds rest now and then30.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as one of the most popular surfing activities?A.Watching videos. B.Reading online news.C.Reading online novels. D.Playing online games.31.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Spending too much time surfing the Internet reduces productivity.B.Those who never surf the Internet have the lowest productivity.C.Most people don't surf the Internet in moderation during office hours.D.People should spend as little time as possible surfing the Internet.DIn all the world's cultures,people sing,play instruments,and celebrate with music.It plays such an important role in our lives that all fields focus on its study,including one looking at the biology of music.Experts find that because of the way our brains process music,learning to play an instrument or just listening to music can have a wide range of benefits.Music education has received a lot of attention.Learning to play an instrument can help children improve math,science,and language skills.One study in Canada tracked children's IQ scores for nine months,discovering that children who studied music had the biggest test score improvements.The secret may lie in the way reading music and playing notes use several areas of the brain,increasing our ability to learn school subjects.For example,reading notes improves spatial(空间的) reasoning skills,which are helpful in solving math problems like fractions(分数).Music is also used for medical purposes,such as the treatment of diseases which affect memories.The secret lies in the way the brain processes music.One area near the forehead,the medial prefrontal cortex,connects music with memories stored in two other areas:the amygdale and hippocampus.That's why 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 unlock buried memories by strengthening musical pathways to memories.With the evidence of music's benefits,it's no wonder some countries make music study a part of their education systems.People are recognizing that more than just a form of entertainment,music is also great for the brain.32.Scientists are studying music because ______.A.music can be used for medical treatmentsB.music plays a very important role in our livesC.our brains can process music in different waysD.music education has received a lot of attention33.According to the Canadian study,which children increased IQ scores?A.Those who already had high IQ scores.B.Those who always played music.C.Those who could not play any instrument.D.Those who studied music for a period of time.34.Which of the following is a kind of disease?A.Spatial reasoning.

No doubt there are ups and downs in life. Whatever the situation is, you shouldn’t lose your joy of life. Life is for a limited period only and no one knows how long he/she will live, so why do you waste your precious time in worrying about the things that are beyond your control? Be happy, and enjoy your life unconditionally(无条件地).You enjoy good days but you also need to learn how to enjoy bad days, even enjoy your pain. In 2016 when I was in Geneva, Switzerland, I suffered a sudden heart attack. My colleagues called an ambulance and I was taken to hospital with much pain in my chest. Before reaching hospital, I was totally exhausted with pain and was going to lose con trol of my emotions. Then the doctor in the ambulance said, “Don’t worry; you are in safe hands.” His words took away all my pain because I started realizing that it was no time to worry about pain and it’s time to be happy that my life was safe. At that t ime, Ilearnt an important lesson that in pain there is a hidden joy and whoever sees the bright side can enjoy pain. My pain turned into a joy which greatly helped me recover more quickly than expected.You not only enjoy success but you also need to learn to enjoy failure. Failure provides you with an opportunity to benefit from so many choices you’ve made. Celebrating failure will raise your morale and make you more powerful and determined to achieve success. We all make mistakes in life but only the courageous(勇敢的)people not only laugh at their own mistakes but also let other people laugh at them and then they reach success without any spiritual burden(负担). A person who learns from mistakes and knows how to turn the bad situation into his/her favor is the most intelligent person and really enjoys his/her life.【答题】( ) What does the author mainly tell us in the first paragraph?A. Life is full of ups and downs.B. People’s lives only last a limited period.C. We should enjoy our life unconditionally.D. Bad situations can be changed into good ones.【答案】C【分析】本题考查主旨大意。
