May 31.2、Many of us listen to music while we work, thinking that it will help us to concentrate on the task at hand. And in fact, recent research has
9、found that music can have beneficial effects on creativity. When it comes to other areas of performance, however, the impact of background music is more complicated.The idea that listening to music when working is beneficial to output probably has its roots in the so-called “Mozart effect”. Put simp
10、ly, this is the finding that spatial rotation performance(空间旋转能力) is increased immediately after listening to the music of Mozart, compared to no sound at all. How sound affects performance has been the topic of research for over 40 years, and is observed through a phenomenon called the irrelevant s
11、ound effect. To study irrelevant sound effect, participants in the research are asked to complete a simple task which requires them to recall a series of numbers or letters in the exact order in which they saw them. The tricky thing is being able to do this while ignoring any background noise.Two ke
12、y characteristics of the irrelevant sound effect are required for its observation. First, the task must require the person to use their rehearsal abilities(复述能力), and second, the sound must contain acoustical variation(声学变化). Where the sound does not vary much acoustically, the performance of the ta
13、sk is much closer to that observed in quiet conditions.The irrelevant sound effect itself comes from attempting to process two sources of ordered information at the same timeone from the task and one from the sound. Unfortunately, only the former is required to successfully perform the recall task,
14、and the effort in ensuring that irrelevant order information from the sound is not processed actually hinders(阻碍) this ability.A similar conflict is also seen when reading while in the presence of lyrical music. In this situation, the two sources of wordsfrom the task and the soundare in conflict. T
15、he cost is poorer performance of the task in the presence of music with lyrics.What this all means is that whether having music playing in the background helps or hinders performance depends on the task and on the type of music, and only understanding this relationship will help people maximize thei
16、r productivity levels. 1. “Mozart effect” is mentioned to _.A. explain how music can relax people B. show music can improve performanceC. advise people to listen to Mozart music D. stress Mozart music gains wide attention 2. It can be inferred that participants in the research _.A. have improved the
17、ir rehearsal ability B. perform better in the quiet conditionsC. ignore the background noise successfullyD. prefer the music with great sound variation3. Paragraph 6 is written to _.A. support an idea B. make a contrastC. introduce a topic D. describe a fact4. What is the best title for the passage?
18、A. Music shapes your lifeB. Music develops your creativityC. Choose quiet music for your workD. Does music make you concentrate?3、During Amsterdams chaotic rush hour, nine-year-old Lotta Crok cycles to a very busy junction. “Look,” she says. “Theres traffic coming from everywhere. Four trams from fo
19、ur different directions. For a child on a bike thats really confusing!”Lotta is the first junior cycle mayor in the world and her working area is the Dutch capital. You would think this challenge would be superfluous in a city known as thebicycle capital of the world. The number of bicyclesin Amster
20、dam is estimated at 881,000 more than the citys 850,000 inhabitants and 63% of the population cycle daily.But children who cycle in Amsterdam face challenges, Lotta says: “The three biggest problems for us are cars, cycling tourists and scooters (小型摩托). The cars take up too much space, the tourists
21、are always swinging side to side and stop when you least expect it, and the scooters simply run you over.”Lotta became junior cycle mayor in June last year when she won a contest in which schoolchildren were asked to come up with plans to make cycling safer and more fun. Her idea was to add children
22、s bikes to the popular bike share programme. Since Lotta was appointed junior cycle mayor, she has been busy, giving interviews, opening cycling contests in the city and being a jury(评审员)member during theAmsterdam Light Parade, an event in which Amsterdammers decorate their bikes with lights.She is
23、now planning a meeting with the citys mayor to discuss ideas that children have come up with: “One of our proposals is a bicycle park where children can learn how to cycle. Right now, most of us learn it in the street, which can be quite busy. Another idea is to create an app for tourists to teach t
24、hem the rules of cycling, because most of them really dont know.”Following the success of the Amsterdam scheme, cycle mayors around the world are now planning to appoint junior colleagues. “They see it works really well,” Boerma, the senior major, says. “I talk to the parents, Lotta talks to the chi
25、ldren. And if you look at the city through the eyes of a child, you will also make it accessible for others. A city thats good for an eight-year-old is also good for an 88-year-old.” 1. Why is a junior cycle mayor appointed in Amsterdam?A. To teach children how to ride.B. To ensure cycling is safer
26、for children.C. To give suggestions to the citys mayor on how to run the city.D. To organize the cycling contests in the city. 2. Which word can best replace the underlined word “superfluous” in paragraph 2?A. ImportantB. Unnecessary C. DifficultD. Valuable3. What has Lotta done since she became the
27、 bike mayor?A. She has solved the three biggest problems for children cycling in Amsterdam.B. She has won a contest about cycling.C. She has given interviews and been a jury member during a parade.D. She has given proposals to the city mayor.4. What s Boermas attitude to the junior cycle mayor?A. Ca

Disapproving 4、The Broadcom MASTERS competition aims to find a balance between celebrating individual accomplishments and acknowledging that science seldom happens aloneThe competition takes off when students from around the country are teamed up and have to solve a
29、series of handson challenges in the spotlightNowadays,kids are fed with“the myth of the lone scientist”,so placing such challenges in the middle school period has a huge potential for impactThe focus on teambuilding skills gets students excited before more fears and stereotypes(成见)set inThe initial
30、pool of qualified students comes from the participants in nation-wide science fairsThose who score in the top 10(about 1 0,000 kids)have the qualification to applyThe judges select the top 300 young scientists,and that group is finally narrowed to 30 finalistsSelection at this stage is clearly an ho

32、most of the work takes place behind the scenes and students share a polished outcome,the hands-on challenges create a space where the work is the competition itselfThe students take up a range of challenges in science,technology,engineering,math and so onEach of the challenges will need the insight
33、and skills of multiple team membersJudges observing the challenges arent just looking for outcomes but also for leadership,teamwork and problem solvingThe Broadcom MASTERS attracts increasing numbers of passionate and talented young people who are eager to take part in a program that helps them grow

66、e local government. I also gave a presentation in class where I suggested that we (或删去 must)make small changes to protect our water resources.解析:第一处:考查时态及主谓一致。句意:上个月,我们班组织了一次沿着潮白河的徒步旅行,这条河流过河北、北京和天津。河流的走向是一种自然现象,所以用一般现在时,which指代的是潮白河,所以用单数第三人形式。所以要把run改为runs。第二处:考查名词。句意:令我十分失望的是,我发现这条河受到了严重的污染。固定短语t
67、o ones +disappointment意为“令某人失望的是”,应该用名词disappointment做介词to的宾语。所以要把disappoint改成disappointment。第三处:考查副词。句意:令我十分失望的是,我发现这条河受到了严重的污染。此处是副词修饰动词pollute,seriously是副词严重。所以要把serious改成seriously。第四处:考查不定式。句意:在那时,我决心尽我所能保护它。此处是动词不定式作目的状语,所以加to。第五处:考查固定短语。句意:在老师的帮助下,我使用学校实验室的设备检测河水的质量。介词短语:with my teachers help意
68、为“在老师的帮助下”,所以要把under改成with。第六处:考查名词。句意:在老师的帮助下,我使用学校实验室的设备检测河水的质量。句中equipment是不可数名词,所以不与s连用。所以要把equipments改成equipment。第七处:考查连词。句意:接着我使用收集的数据来分析被污染的水。根据上下文语义可知应该是顺接关系,应该使用and。所以要把But 改成And。第八处:考查句子结构。句意:接着我使用收集的数据来分析被污染的水。关系代词that/which指代先行词date在定语从句中作collect的宾语,可以省略,原句中的it是多余的。所以要删除it。第九处:考查时态。句意:我最
69、后写了一篇关于这条河的污染报告给当地政府。本文讲述的是过去的事情,全文都是还有一般过去时,所以要把write改为wrote。第十处:考查虚拟语气。句意:在班级里我做了一次陈述,在这次陈述里我建议我们要做出改变来保护我们的水资源。动词suggest引导的宾语从句用should+动词原形,should可以省略。所以要删除must。 9答案及解析:答案:Dear Eric,How is everything going?
