Depression is also caused by problems such as failure in business.Depression may bring us weakness，headache，and loss of concentration.Good music makes one remember happy moments or good days.If you play music about love，it makes you feel like falling in love again though you may have had several upset experiences.And such good feeling make you healthy.Anxiety is another health problem that can be controlled by music.Anxiety is a side effect of some major health problems such as cancer of the liver and cancer of the breast.Good music makes you feel relaxed and removes the pains from these diseases and you feel all right.Good music can send you to sleep.And you need to know that sleep puts your body in a healthy condition.Sleep takes away the effects of stress，depression and anxiety from a person.21According to the famous person in Paragraph 1，music can .Atreat many kinds of diseasesBhelp you keep healthy in your mindCtake the place of medicine in treating illnessDmake you remember things that happened in the past22Good music helps people remove stress mainly by .Aletting people have a good sleep Bmaking people think positivelyCshowing something new to people Dmaking people focus only on important things23Which of the following is NOT a reason for depression mentioned in the passage?AStress.

BIt cost a lot of money.CIt has a beautiful case.DIts made from waste.26According to the text，Cateura .Ais probably a dirty place Bis attracting lots of touristsCis in the center of Asuncion Dis dealing with its trash very well27Why did Chavez ask the landfill workers to make instruments from the trash?ATo recycle the trash. BTo save some money.CTo produce special sounds. DTo make the instruments more attractive.28The underlined phrase “took off” in Paragraph 5 probably means“ ”Abecame popularBgot into troubleCstayed unchanged Dgot a lot of moneyCIn the United States parents may have many kinds of cultures and customs Most of these parents believe strongly in passing them on to their children.It is very important to know how to do this，because they can stay with a child for the rest of his/her life.It is always good to start teaching them to a child as early as possible.To begin with，it is a good idea to have toys that are meaningful because children often get very attached to their first toys.In addition，a parent should also introduce a child to music.Music is a way for a child to express emotions and this is another great tool.Music is also the link between a child and a language.What else do we think of when we say music？Dancing！Of course，there is nothing better than seeing a child enjoy dancing to a song that is culturally meaningful.Although music and dance are relevant，the most important and perhaps the most difficult step in maintaining culture is teaching a child to eat all kinds of foods.In particular those typical dishes which often look to a child like their worst nightmare! The trick to achieve this is to take small steps.Do not sit a child in front of a giant plate with everything in it；this would only scare them away.A small portion is the ideal way to approach it and is also important to sit down next to the child and allow him/her to see that the parent is also sharing that moment.These are just a few ideas to help keep the cultures and customs in a family.There is no better feeling for a parent than seeing their children being proud of their background，especially when such things are so meaningful.Let it start with a simple toy and build up to other situations.The only thing a parent should do is not give up!29The text is mainly written for .Ateachers BScientists Cparents Dchildren30To pass family cultures and customs on to children，its better to start with .Atoys Bmusic Cdance Dfoods31Dancing is important to help keeping cultures because .Aa child can express his feelings through it Bchildren often like it very muchCsome songs are culturally meaningful Dit connects a child with a language32Whats the best title of the passage?ATraditional music for kids BKeeping the familys cultures and customsCTips for buying meaningful toys DHelp the kids have all kinds of foodsD Rock and roll music developed in theUnited Statesin the early nineteen-fifties. It was based on the music called rhythm and blues that was performed by African American musicians.Early rock and roll singers developed their own kinds of music. Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, the Beach Boys, and Bob Dylan were the most popular rock and roll musicians in the early 1960s. All were American. Then, in 1964, a new rock and roll group fromEnglandinvadedAmerica: the Beatles.Some people say the Beatlesmusic shookAmericalike an earthquake. The Beatles changed rock and roll forever. Their early songs were influenced by American rock and roll musicians, including Chuck Berry. But the Beatles looked different and sounded different from any musical group before them.The Beatles released their first album in theUnited Statesin 1964, when all of the top five records inAmericawere by the Beatles. In 1967, they released an album called“Sergeant Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band.”It was one of the first“concept”albums. That is, all the songs were linked by a common story or idea.The popularity of the Beatles led the way for more rock and roll bands fromEnglandto become popular inAmerica. The Rolling Stones was the most important of these bands. The Rolling Stones is one of the few groups from the 1960s that is still performing and recording today. In 1965, the group recorded one of its most famous songs,“Satisfaction”.The musical instrument most linked to rock and roll is the guitar. Experts say Jimi Hendrix was one of the most influential guitar players in rock and roll during the late 1960s. His“Purple Haze”was liked by many people.By the 1970s, rock and roll music became known as rock music. It expanded into many new forms. For example, there was country rock, hard rock, acid rock, and heavy metal rock. Punk rock, jazz rock, and glitter rock.In the middle 1970s, experts say rock music regained some of the energy of early rock and roll. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band became popular with their album“Born to Run”. Springsteens music was like the lively rock and roll music of the early nineteen-sixties. Many of his songs were about social issues. He sang about the effects of unemployment and the war inVietnam.33.
