It doesnt matter where you livein the middle of a modern city, or a faraway villagethe chances that you will be disturbed by jet aeroplanes, transistor radios, oilpowered engines, etc, are almost everywhere. We seem to be getting used to noise, too. Some people feel quite lonely without background_music while they are working.Scientific tests have shown that total silence can be a very frightening experience for human beings. However, some people enjoy listening to pop music which is very loud, and this can do harm to their eardrums(耳鼓). The noise level in some disco is far above the usual safety level for heavy industrial areas.One recent report about noise and concentration(专心) suggested that although a lot of people say that any noise disturbs their concentration, what really affects their ability to concentrate is a change in the level of noise. It goes on to say that a background noise, which doesnt change too much (music, for example ) may even help people to concentrate.1. The best title for this passage is “_”. A. Noisy lifeB.

Joseph Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams. People called him a dreamer.One day he received an invitation to go to an important party. He was pleased and a little excited. As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think how to make an amazing entrance at the party. He had an idea. He thought he would attract a lot of attention if he could skate into the room. Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels under each shoe. These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin. He was sure that everyone would be very surprised. On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room, playing his violin. Everyone was really surprised to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He rolled on and on. Suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. The mirror fell down, breaking into pieces.

Its 25 days before Christmas. Its after Thanksgiving and often the first day of Christmas shopping. At this time, we see ads in newspapers and on TV telling us to “buy, buy, buy”！The idea for Buy Nothing Day started in Vancouver, British Columbia. Now people all over the world celebrate Buy Nothing Day. In California, parents and children get together to read stories, sing songs, and paint pictures. The children talk about why they dont need a lot of toys. This year, in Manchester, England, people dressed up to tell people that we buy too much.In Albuquerque, New Mexico, high school students wanted to tell other students about Buy Nothing Day. They organized a spaghetti dinner to give people information about Buy Nothing Day. They asked restaurants in the neighbourhood to donate the food. They made posters and talked to other students about it. The dinner was a big success, and many students agreed not to buy anything on November 29.

According to the British newspaper The Times，“The Lang Lang effect” is responsible for driving 36 million Chinese children to learn the piano.Now in China children are learning Chopin(肖邦) and Western orchestras are touring Chinese cities, but can China ever export(出口) its own music to the West? Lang is trying. His cooperation with the London Symphony Orchestra includes a performance of Dragon Songs，and an album of traditional Chinese classics.Behind the international recognition, however, is a fascinating story of a gifted child. Lang grew up with his fathers own musical ambition and high expectations. It is not hard to imagine how boring it must be to practise the piano every day. Lang said that he once hated his hands and the piano. He injured his right hand six years ago and had to rest.“That was the best month，” he says, without hesitation. “I had a date. I saw a Broadway show and saw Britney Spears in concert.”12. Which of the following is NOT the reason why Lang Lang is the No.1 Chinese classical artist in the world?A.

He has 36 million Chinese students in China.B. He is touring China giving concerts.C. He is trying to export Chinese music to Western countries.D.

The Internet helps make many friends. Chatting online, students can more freely express their feelings and opinions, and even get help with their foreign language studies.Others, however, think students should not. They say making friends online is a waste of time, which should be spent more meaningfully on study. Besides, some students easily get cheated online.In my opinion, students should place their study, health and safety before other things. As for friendship, we can find it in our classmates and other people around us.
