About four percent of the population is what scientists call “amusic.” People who are amusic are born without the ability to recognize or reproduce musical notes (音调). Amusic people often cannot tell the difference between two songs. Amusics can only hear the difference between two notes if they are very far apart on the musical scale.As a result, songs sound like noise to an amusic. Many amusics compare the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other. Life can be hard for amusics. Their inability to enjoy music set them apart from others. It can be difficult for other people to identify with their condition. In fact, most people cannot begin to grasp what it feels like to be amusic. Just going to a restaurant or a shopping mall can be uncomfortable or even painful. That is why many amusics intentionally stay away from places where is music. However, this can result in withdrawal and social isolation(隔离). “I used to hate parties,” says Margaret, a seventy-year-old woman who only recently discovered that she was amusic. By studying people like Margaret, scientists are finally learning how to identify this unusual condition.Scientists say that the brains of amusics are different from the brains of people who can appreciate music. The diffenence is complex, and it doesnt involve defective hearing. Amusic can understand other nonmusical sounds well. They also have no problems understanding ordinary speech. Scientists compare amusics to people who just cannot see certain colors.Many amusics are happy when their condition is finally diagnosed（诊断）. For years, Margaret felt embarrassed about her problem with music. Now she knows that she is not alone. There is a name for her condition. That makes it easier for her to explain. “ When people invite me to a concert, I just say, No, thanks, Im amusic, ” says Margaret. “I just whish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen and not seventy.”13. Which of the following is TURE of amusics?A. Listening to music is far from enjoyable for them.B. They love places where they are likely to hear music.C. They can easily tell two different songs apart.D. Their situation is well understood by musicians.14. In the last paragraph, Margaret expressed her wish that_.A. her problem with music had been diagnosed earlierB. she were seventeen years old rather than seventyC. her problem could be easily explainedD. she were able to meet other amusics15. What is the passage mainly concerned with?A. Amusics strange behaviours.B. Some peoples inability to enjoy music.C. Musical talent and brain structure.D. Identification and treatment of amusics.第二节（共5小题；每题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，选项中有两项为多余选项。16_. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so, however.
