10.If music makes you smarter and exercise helps you to think,surly exercising to music can turn you into an intelligent (聰明的) person.
A team of scientists from Ohio State University did experiments on 33 volunteers who were getting better from heart disease after operations.They found those volunteers who exercised while listening to Italian musician Antonio Vivaldi‟s The Four Seasons did much better on language ability tests than without music.It is also used in medical fields for patients who have had head hurts because of its moderate tempo(舒緩的節(jié)拍).
"Exercise seems to cause positive changes in the nervous system(神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)) and these changes may improve the learning ability of people with heart disease,"said the psychologist Charles Emery,who led the study."And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding.We just wanted to put the two results together."he added.
The volunteers said they felt better emotionally (情緒上) and physically after exercising with or without music.But their improvement o the test doubled after listening to music during exercise.Scientists have proved that music can be good for health and education.It helps reduce stress and sadness,encourage relaxation or sleep,wake up the body and improve memory thoughts.
Scientists have been studying the results of exercise to music on learning and understanding since the early 1950s.A study showed that students who listened to Mozart‟s violin pieces and exercised went on to get higher marks in an intelligent test.With important exams drawing near,your parents will not allow you to listen to music or play sports.But perhaps now you have good reasons to argue with them.

52.What does the underline word enhance mean?C
A.Produce 
B.Provide 
C.Improve
D.Impress
53.It can be learned from the last paragraph thatD.
A.you are supposed to follow your parents'words.
B.you have some good reasons to join in an intelligence test.
C.good marks depend on listening to music and exercising.
D.exercise to music might help you get higher grades in tests.
54.Which of the following statement is true?D
A.Music helps volunteers get better from heart disease.
B.Exercise is used for people with head hurts.
C.Exercise causes no changes in health without music.
D.Music can help you relax and feel energetic.
55.What might be the title of the passage?A
A.Exercise to Music
B.Music and Study
C.Important of Music
D.Students on Exercise.

5.We have to accept(接受)the truth:sometimes,we just warn to shout out loud.
For example,we all have days like this:our dog has made a mess on the floor we just cleaned,or our friend called to tell us he or she couldn't come at the last minute when we had cooked dinner for him or her.We may be really angry but we tried to bear things like those.According to ancient Chinese wisdom(智慧),we should shout in a loud voice instead of keeping silent.In fact,it's good for our health.
"Chinese people have passed on the practice from ancient times to now as a part of traditional medicine,"said Mrs.Li,a 60-year-old woman from Hangzhou."My parents taught me to do this.It's a part of our folk(民間的)culture."
Mrs.Li is a member of a group of people who love shouting.Each morning,she and some of her friends climb to the top of a hill.a(chǎn)nd let out loud shouts before starting their daily exercise.They believe that shouting is good exercise for their lungs(肺)and it brings them a lot of fun
"Sometimes I shout out and other shout back,"said Mrs.Gu,another shouting lover."It makes you happy.You laugh and then you feel very comfortable."
Dr.Peter Calafiura,an American doctor,agrees that shouting can have a positive influence on people's health.
So,next time you start your morning run,why not try to shout out first?It will make you healthier.

2.Reading makes one wise,but many adults seldom read.They say they are too busy to have time to read.Sure.They have work to do.They have families to support.But these are only excuses.The fact is that they haven't got a reading habit.A reading habit isn't something natural.It needs to be trained.And it's never too late to develop a reading habit.
Scientists believe proper books are very important for children to develop a good reading habit.A book in rich colors and with simple patterns(圖案) such as lines and circles is a good choice for babies of three months old.When they reach six months,they will become interested in simple story books in rich colors.
When children get old enough to read by themselves,it's necessary to buy books that are both interesting and right for them to understand.Books which are either too easy or too difficult are not good for kids to keep their reading habits.
Only buying books for children isn't enough.For kids,parents are their first teachers.So parents should read books to set an example.Children will follow them.Scientists say imitating the adults is a born skill.And it is the most valuable way for children to learn.This will certainly help them develop a reading habit in the end.

53.According to the writer,many adults seldom read because theyC.
A.don't have enough time      
B.have to work all the time
C.haven't got a reading habit    
D.have to support the family
54.The underlined word"imitating"here probably meansA.
A.copying      
B.reading     
C.testing       
D.missing
55.We can learn from the passage thatB.
A.story books are better than books in colors 
B.a(chǎn) reading habit comes from certain training
C.a(chǎn) three-month-old kid likes simple stories 
D.too easy books help keep a reading habit.
