【題目】閱讀理解
Music is magic! Music speaks louder than words and it is a “l(fā)anguage” that the whole world can understand. A piece of music can produce a response in the heart and mind. Like feeling an electrical current or receiving a personal radio signal, music has a spiritual effect on a person. Different kinds of music influence people in different ways.
I have listened to music all my life. When I was twelve years old, the Beatles came to America and my whole world opened up. Maybe young people today cannot understand the influence of the Beatles when they exploded across America. Their influence changed the way we dressed, looked, acted and spoke... even our culture. The Beatles arrived in America from the UK just under three months after the assassination(暗殺) of President John Kennedy, which had put America into a great depression. And the freshness and lively spirit of the Beatles was exactly what the country needed to refresh itself.
Music links the heart of the hearer with that of the composer. This means that it mixes the spirit of the composer with your spirit when you listen to it. And the music can take your spirit out of your body and transport you into another world. Music has a great way of touching people. Music can make you laugh, cry or shout. It's also a great source of inspiration.
Try this one day and notice what happens: make yourself a cup of tea, sit on your sofa and play one of your favorite songs. Close your eyes, and soon you'll find yourself creating vivid mental images—matching the music that you are listening to.
（1）Music has magical power because it ________.
A.is a kind of language
B.can be played much louder than words
C.receives a personal radio signal
D.can influence a person's spirit
（2）One can learn from the second paragraph that the Beatles ________.
A.were the biggest band in American history
B.are not accepted by modern American people
C.appeared at a special time in American politics
D.represented the roots of American culture
（3）One will do all of the following while listening to music EXCEPT ________.
A.feeling very refreshed
B.having emotional changes
C.painting some vivid pictures
D.feeling inspired by the composer
（4）It can be inferred from the passage that the author ________.
A.has been influenced by the Beatles
B.enjoys drinking tea in his spare time
C.admires President John Kennedy very much
D.likes to match his own feeling with that of the composer

【題目】A warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting nights sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off-if it is milked from a cow at night.

Researchers have discovered that" night milk" contains more melatonin(褪黑激素) which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.

The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.

Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food.

Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.

While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.

Early studies have also showed that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of containing Ca., which helps people to relax.

Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free(不含添加物的) with experts advising skimmed (脫脂的) milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will put on your body at night.

【1】Which of the following is true of melatonin according to the text?

A. it's used in sleeping drugs.

B. It's been tested on mice for ten years.

C. It can make people more energetic.

D. It exists in milk in great amount.

【2】According to the text, the mice fed with daytime milk______.

A. started sleep more easily

B. were less active

C. were more anxious

D. woke up lat

【3】How does the author support the main idea of the text?

A. By giving examples.

B. By introducing reasons.

C. By listing data.

D. By offering research results.

【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Fat Sugar and Health

B. Night Milk and Sleep

C. An Experiment on Mice

D. Milk Drinking and Health

【題目】閱讀理解
Have you ever found yourself in his situation: You hear a song you used to sing when you were a child-a bit of nostalgia(懷舊) or “blast from the past,” as we say. But it is not a distant childhood memory. The words come back to you as clearly as when you sang them all those years ago.
Researchers at the University of Edinburgh studied the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language. They found that remembering words in a song was the best way to remember even one of the most difficult languages.
Here is what they did. Researchers took 60 adults and randomly divided them into three groups of 20. Then they gave the groups three different types of “l(fā)isten-and-repeat” learning conditions. Researchers had one group simply speak the words. They had the second group speak the words to a rhythm, or beat. And they asked the third group to sing the words.
All three groups studied words from the Hungarian language for 15 minutes. Then they took part in a series of language tests to see what they remembered.
Why Hungarian, you ask? Researchers said they chose Hungarian because not many people know the language. It does not share any roots with Germanic or Romance languages, such as Italian or Spanish. After the tests were over, the singers came out on top. The people who learned these new Hungarian words by singing them showed a higher overall performance. They did the best in four out of five of the tests. They also performed two times better than those who simply learned the words by speaking them.
Dr. Katie Overy says singing could lead to new ways to learn a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things when they are contained in a catchy 3, or memorable 4, tune 5.
Dr. Ludke said the findings could help those who struggle to learn foreign languages. On the University of Edinburgh's website Dr. Ludke writes, “This study provides the first experimental evidence that a listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning, and opens the door for future research in this area.”
（1）The “song” mentioned in the first paragraph is intended to__________.
A.recall the past
B.attract the readers
C.introduce the topic
D.compare the childhood with the present
（2）According to the passage which language doesn't share the same root with Germanic or Romance languages?
A.Hungarian
B.Spanish
C.Italian
D.English
（3）Based on the last two paragraphs, we can conclude that __________
A.singing is the best way to learn a language.
B.the brain probably works best when the foreign language learners sing the words.
C.a listen-repeat method is very effective for any language learner.
D.Dr. Katie Overy and Dr. Ludke disagree with each other.
（4）In which situation can the finding of the research be applied?
A.A mother is going to teach her baby how to speak.
B.A child is going to have his first music lesson.
C.A student is going to learn a new English song.
D.An American is going to learn some Chinese.
