People have all turned to sad music to make themselves feel better at some point in their lives, 【1】why does the music with double or even triple sadness help drag people out of low spirits?

A new study throws light on what's going on inside people’s brains when they match their music to their feelings, and it looks as if sad music can be enjoyable, rather than 【2】(simple) depressing. Music of this sort can arouse positive memories in people’s life , thus【3】(lift)their mood.

Psychologist Adrian North from Curtin University in Australia says there 【4】(existence) two groups of possible explanations for why people enjoy listening to sad music like this---one from social psychology, and the other from cognitive neuroscience(神經(jīng)學(xué)).

【5】terms of social psychology, one idea about this is that people will feel 【6】(good) about themselves if they focus on someone who's doing even worse. Everything's going to be okay, because this person is having 【7】even worse day than they are.

Another idea from social psychology is that people like to listen to the very music 【8】shows their present life circumstances, because this kind of music makes them feel they are understood. With their emotions【9】(share), they definitely get a certain amount of comfort.

So, the 【10】(conclude) again—sad music does cheer people up, and it works far better than happy music, in most cases.

【題目】 Today's personal computers are very different from the huge machines that were born during World War II-and the difference isn't only in their size. By the 1970s, these early PCs could not perform many of the tasks that today's computers can. Users could only do mathematical calculations(數(shù)學(xué)計(jì)算) and play simple games. Today PCs are used in many different kinds of ways. At home and at work, we use our PCs to do almost everything. It is nearly impossible to imagine modern life without them.

The earliest computers were not "personal" in any way: They were large and expensive, and they required a team of engineers and other experts to keep them running. One of the first and most famous of these, the Electronic Numerical Integrator Analyzer and Computer (ENIAC), was built at the University of Pennsylvania. ENIAC cost ﹩500, 000, weighed 30 tons and took up nearly 2, 000 square feet of floor space.

ENIAC and other early computers proved that the machines were worth so much money, space and manpower they needed. For example, ENIAC could solve in 30 seconds a problem that could take a team of human "computers" 12 hours to complete. At the same time, new technologies were making it possible to build smaller computers.

But one of the most important of the inventions that make way for the PC revolution was the microprocessor(微處理器). Microprocessors were the size of a nail. They could run the computer's programs, remember information and manage data(數(shù)據(jù)) all by themselves.

These new ideas made it cheaper and easier to produce computers than ever before. As a result, the smaller, cheaper "microcomputer"-soon known as the "personal computer"-was born. Today, portable computers, smart phones and ipads allow us to have a PC with us wherever we go.

【1】What's mainly talked about in the first paragraph? ______

A.An even more relaxing lifestyle without PCs.

B.PCs can be made full use of to do everything.

C.Differences between modern and early PCs.

D.The difficult situation of PCs being born.

【2】What do we know about the earliest computers? ______

A.It was easy to control them.B.They took up too much room.

C.Nobody could afford one.D.They were built by universities.

【3】Why does the writer take ENIAC for example? ______

A.To predict high technology will make computers smaller.

B.To show computers are really smarter than human beings.

C.To explain why computers could deal with any problem.

D.To prove spending money on early computers was meaningful.

【4】Which of the following makes the biggest contribution to microcomputers? ______

A.Microprocessors.B.Programs.C.Money.D.Imagination.

【題目】When I was a kid, the thing I enjoyed most about New Years Eve was trying to stay awake until midnight. 【1】 However, I usually fell asleep before the New Year arrived. It wasn’t until my 10th birthday that I reached the finish line and was able to cheer with the rest of the family. When I woke up the next morning, my mom asked me if I wanted to make a New Year’s resolution（決心要做的事）.

【2】 After she explained it to me, I said I would try to fight less with my older brother. This got me a smile and a pat on the head from my mom. Unfortunately, the resolution lasted only until dinnertime. 【3】 A New Year’s resolution is a decision to do or not do something in order to accomplish a personal goal or break a habit. It comes at a time when people look back at the past year and make an effort to improve themselves as the New Year begins.

【4】 Kids make resolutions to get along better with others or to do their homework right away.

Remember that it takes work to keep a New Year’s resolution. 【5】 As long as you stay committed to what you want to accomplish, you’ll be proud of yourself in the end. And you’ll be a better person at the end of the year than you were at the beginning!

A. My parents didn’t force me to go to bed early.

B. I had no idea what a New Year’s resolution was.

C. Don’t worry if you fail to make it once or twice.

D. Be kind to your friends, teachers and family members.

E. You can consider the following New Year resolutions.

F. Adults often make New Year’s resolutions to lose weight or exercise more.

G. The reason is that my brother and I got into an argument about who would set the table.

【題目】 Utah Lake is, in a word, disgusting. The State of Utah has worked with many partners and spent millions of dollars in an attempt to restore Utah Lake. It has indeed produced some active effects. However, due to the wastewater getting into it，this body of water is rich in nutrient and home to water bloom. Overfishing and the introduction of invasive species have only made the problem worse. In the summer of 2016，500 people in Utah complained about their headaches, skin rashes and discomfort after swimming in the lake.

The Utah Lake Restoration Project is headed by Parker. He imagines a beautiful lake dotted with man-made islands where a community could be built. Parker frequently goes to Capitol Hill to push for the proposal of the comprehensive lake restoration. Parker follows his rules "big ideas are worth approaching"，as the project calls for lake digging, the creation of islands，the removal of invasive species to restore the habitats of native plants，fish and so on.

Speaking of the Utah Lake Restoration Project，Ben Holcomb said, "It is not quite in line with reality.” He added，"Despite impressive computer models and the current project report， the Utah Lake Restoration Project lacks the actual field research to show that this project will have a positive effect on the lake's ecosystem.”

When asked how the public would help beautify Utah Lake, the lake's official workers suggested picking up garbage. However, it has a greatly limited effect on the overall health of the lake. Parker's plan may seem like the state's best chance to restore Utah Lake, but in reality the Utah Lake Restoration Project lacks the facts necessary for this sort of proposal. The State of Utah should propose some suggestions for the revision of the plan and offer the Utah Lake Restoration Project the access necessary to conduct research which could be compared with their theoretical findings. Only then can the State of Utah make an educated decision on behalf of people and resources.

【1】What can we learn from paragraph l？

A.The State of Utah has tried to restore Utah Lake.

B.It is not difficult to save Utah Lake for the State.

C.People living around Utah Lake are healthy and happy.

D.People don't swim in Utah Lake because of its pollution.

【2】What's the purpose of the Utah Lake Restoration Project

A.To build a community near Utah Lake.

B.To make the water of Utah Lake rich in nutrient.

C.To make Utah Lake popular with foreign tourists.

D.To build a safe home for native creatures in Utah Lake.

【3】What's Ben Holcomb's attitude towards the Utah Lake Restoration Project?

A.Doubtful.B.Optimistic.

C.Unconcerned.D.Approving.

【4】What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph

A.Picking up garbage is the key to saving the whole lake.

B.There's no proper way to save the health of Utah Lake.

C.Parker's plan needs some field research and adjustment.

D.Local people should take responsibility for saving Utah Lake.
