No one doubts that students should study languages, maths and science in high school, but some may object to the idea that they should study art and music as well. To them, these subjects are useless for students’ future and are not worth the time and effort. In my opinion, however, it is necessary for middle school students to study art and music.
Art and music are a precious culture legacy（遗产）, which bring us pleasure and enjoyment. Have you ever been deeply moved by Beethoven’s famous Fifth Symphony? Have you ever been fascinated by the colorful starry night produced by Vincent van Gogh in his paint? Have you ever longed for the moving love between the Butterfly Lovers when you hear this well-known Chinese melody（曲调）? Art and music are not only images and sounds, but something beyond them. They are the products of passion and human wisdom. .
Art and music help make students more creative. Artists and musicians are considered the most creative people in the world. It is because art and music sharpen their senses and provide a different perspective (视角) for them to see the world. Many great scientists benefited from art and music. Einstein, the greatest physicist in the 20th century, as well as an excellent violin player, is a good example.
Enjoying art and music is also a good way to relax. Middle school students, who typically carry heavy burdens of study, will definitely benefit from it.
To sum up, art and music should absolutely be included in the middle school courses, for they can bring students pleasure and relaxation.

Based on cultural traditions and the changing face of contemporary British communities, the Festival of Muslim (穆斯林) Cultures joins young people from Muslim and non-Muslim backgrounds together through the creation of innovative (创新的), high quality cultural activities.
We have been working with arts and educational institutions across the UK to promote the mainstreaming of Muslim cultures within UK everyday life. The Festival was created out of the need to encourage a better understanding between Muslims and non-Muslims, to promote respect for Muslim cultures and to show how culture creates the pathways that connect us all together.
The program launched with a visit by the Festival’s patron (赞助人), the Prince of Wales, to the exhibition “Palace and Mosque” in Sheffield and since then there have been more than 100 events that have ranged from a Somali community day in Cardiff at the National Museum of Wales to a late-night Dance with Radio Tarifa (from Spain) and Dimi Mint Abba (from Mauritania) in the Royal Albert Hall and from a home-grown play in Nottingham about the Kashmir earthquake to the exhibition “Beyond the Palace Walls” at the Royal Museum Edinburgh of Islamic art from the Hermitage Museum, St Petersburg.
We are now working on a number of long-term projects which stay true to our commitment to promoting Muslim cultures through arts collaborations (协作) and build on the extensive network of local, national and international partners that Festival has created. These include a three-year national program that connects young Muslims to their local cultural institutions; a UK Muslim cookbook; an exhibition of the Ottoman architect Sinan; and a project for schools around the 1000-year old story “The Animals’ Lawsuit against Humanity”.

Scientists have found two mammals believed new to science on the latest expedition to an almost lost world in Indonesia’s Papua Province Conservation International (CI) said in a statement on Monday. Scientists from CI and the Indonesia Institute of Science (LIPI) visited the Foja Mountains in June 2007, following a first trip to the area in late 2005 that saw them discover dozens of new plants and animals.
“During the June expedition, the team found two mammals, a Mallomys giant rat and a Carcartetus pygmy possum, one of the world’s smallest marsupials (有袋动物), both currently under study and apparently new to science,” CI said in the statement. “The giant rat is about five times the size of a typical city rat. With no fear of humans, it apparently came into the camp several times during the trip,” said Kristofer Helgen, a scientist with the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.
The scientists also recorded the mating (交尾) displays of several rare and little-known birds for the first time. “It's comforting to know that there is a place on earth so isolated (孤立的) that it remains the absolute realm of wild nature," said CI vice president Bruce Beehler, who led the expedition. “We were pleased to see that this little piece of Eden(伊甸园) remains as attracting as it was when we first visited,” he added.
CI and LIPI plan another expedition back to the Foja Mountains in late 2008 or 2009. They expect to find additional new species of frogs, mammals, butterflies, and plants.
Activists have already warned that the forests in the area are under threat from large-scale forest destruction. Indonesia, which is losing its forests at the world's fastest rate, is struggling to save its rain-forest from being destroyed.
36. The writer’s purpose in writing the text is to __________.
A. inform us of more information about mammals in Indonesia
B. encourage more scientists to do more research in Indonesia
C. persuade people to believe there are more species in the world
D. tell readers scientists find two new mammals in Indonesia
37. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to __________.
A. mammals B. Foja Mountains C. scientists D. plants
38. Which of the following was compared to Eden by CI vice president Bruce Beehler?
A. Their camp. B. The Foja Mountains.
C. Wild nature. D. The expedition to Indonesia.
39. Besides the two mammals, what did they see in Indonesia for the first time?
A. The mating displays of rare birds. B. Several new species of frogs.
C. Many different kinds of butterflies. D. A number of little-known plants.
40 Which of the following statements would the writer probably agree to?
A. No scientists had been to Indonesia for an expedition before.
B. Scientists have visited the Foja Mountains twice until now.
C. CI and LIPI will go to the Foja Mountains in 2008 and 2009.
D. Indonesia has taken no measures to protect its rainforest.

LONDON, England（CNN）— The youngest person to sail solo around the world returned home Thursday from his 30,000-mile, 282-day ocean journey.
Mike Perham, 17, sailed into Lizard Point in Cornwall, the southernmost point in Britain, at 9:47 a.m., his race team said.
“It feels absolutely brilliant,” Mike told CNN by phone hours before crossing the finish line. “I'm really, really excited to be going across the line at last. It doesn’t feel like long since I crossed it first.”
Mike set off on his round-the-world trip on November 18, 2008. He has been sailing his yacht, TotallyM, single-handedly, though a support team has been sailing next to him along the way. .
The teen has now achieved the title of Youngest Sailor to Circumnavigate the Globe Solo, according to the Guinness World Records.
Mike learned how to sail when he was seven years old from his father, Peter and at age 14, he sailed across the Atlantic alone.
The teenager’s school — which Mike describes as “highly supportive” of his trip — has redesigned his coursework to fit in with his trip. It also gave him some coursework to do during “quiet moments,” according to Mike’s Website.
There haven't been many of those quiet moments. Repeated autopilot failures forced him to stop for repairs in Portugal, the Canary Islands, South Africa, and twice in Australia, according to his Web site.
