(2021·秦皇岛上学期第一次联考)
Recent research shows young children who take music lessons have better memories than their nonmusical peers.
The research,published in the online edition of the journal Brain,showed that after one year of musical training,children did better in a memory test than those who did not take music classes.
“The research tells us that if you take music lessons your brain is getting wired up differently,”Laurel Trainor,professor of psychology at McMaster University,said.
“This is the first study to show that brain responses in young,musically trained and untrained children change differently over the course of a year,”said Trainor.
Over a year they took four measurements in two groups of children aged between four and six-those taking music lessons and those taking no musical training outside school-and found developmental changes over periods as short as four months.
The children completed a music test in which they were asked to discriminate between harmonies,rhythms and melodies(旋律),and a memory test in which they had to listen to a series of numbers,remember them and repeat them back.
Trainor said while previous studies have shown that older children given drama(戏剧)and painting lessons had greater improvements in IQ scores than children who didn't;children given music lessons did better than those given drama.This is the first study to identify these effects in brainbased measurements in young children.
She said it was not that surprising that children studying music improved in musical listening skills more than children not studying music.
“On the other hand,it is very interesting that the children taking music lessons improved more on general memory skills that are correlated with nonmusical abilities such as literacy,verbal memory,visuospatial processing,mathematics and IQ,”she said.
语篇导读:最新的争辩发觉,学习音乐可以提高儿童的记忆力。
1.What can we learn from the passage?
A.The study is the first one to show what influences children's IQ.
B.The researcher studied four groups of children aged between four and six.
C.The study lasted for less than a year.
D.The study shows that taking music lessons can improve more skills.
答案:D 解析:细节理解题。依据最终一段可知,D项正确。依据第五段可知B、C项错误;依据倒数第三段可知A项错误。
2.Young children had developmental changes after they took music for________.
A.over a year B.one year
C.4 months D.less than 4 months
答案:C 解析:细节理解题。依据第五段中的“and found developmental changes over periods as short as four months”可知,在短短的四个月内,学习音乐课程的儿童的大脑发育状况就有所转变。
3.What does the underlined word“discriminate”in Para.6 most probably mean?
A.Say something again.
B.Say something from memory.
C.Find out the difference.
D.Find out something in common.
答案:C 解析:词义猜想题。依据画线词后的“between harmonies,rhythms and melodies(旋律)”推想,此处应表示“区分和声、节奏和旋律”,所以选C。
4.What could be the best title for the passage?
A.Music can develop kids' interest
B.Taking music lessons improves more skills
C.Music should be taught at school
D.Learning music improves kids' memory
答案:D 解析:标题归纳题。通读全文尤其是第一段内容可知,本文主要介绍了一项新的发觉,即上过音乐课的儿童比没有上过音乐课的儿童记忆力更好,因此D项“学音乐提高儿童的记忆力”最能概括本文主旨。

语篇导读:本文是一篇关于Tim建议Susan如何为她一起工作的同事买圣诞礼物的日常对话。
1.答案:who/that 解析:考查定语从句。难度中等。在题干中,“those”是定语从句的先行词且指代人,关系词在从句中作主语,故用who/that作为定语从句的引导词。故空格处填who/that。
2.答案:a 解析:考查冠词。难度中等。依据空格前的代词“it”可知,空格后的名词“headache”在句中表示一件令人头痛的事,为抽象名词具体化现象,因此应用不定冠词修饰。故空格处填a。
3.答案:dividing 解析:考查非谓语动词。难度中等。当consider作“考虑”讲时,后面通常跟动名词作其宾语,由此可知,空格处应使用提示词的动名词形式。故空格处填dividing。
4.答案:but 解析:考查并列连词。难度中等。空格前后两句话之间是转折关系,依据语境可知,but符合语境。故空格处填but。
5.答案:what 解析:考查疑问代词。难度中等。题干为特殊疑问句,且疑问词作“do”的宾语,由此结合下文语境可知,此处指的是“我接下来应当做什么?”,因此what符合语境。故空格处填what。
6.答案:them 解析:考查代词。难度中等。空格前的动词“buy”是关键词,依据buy的用法:buy sb.sth.并结合语境可知,空格处应填代词且该代词作动词“buy”的宾语并指代前面的“the friends”。故空格处填them。
7.答案:on 解析:考查介词。难度中等。空格后的名词“diet”是关键词,该词常与介词on搭配,构成固定短语on a diet,意为“节食”。故空格处填on。
8.答案:healthy 解析:考查形容词。难度中等。空格前的动词“keep”是系动词,其后跟形容词作表语,由此可知,空格处应使用提示词的形容词形式。故空格处填healthy。
9.答案:importantly 解析:考查副词。难度中等。空格处在句中作状语,作为评论性的状语修饰谓语动词或全句时,只能用副词,由此可知,空格处应使用提示词的副词形式。故空格处填importantly。
10.答案:have helped 解析:考查动词的时态。难度中等。空格处在句中作谓语,结合上下文语境可知,此处表示过去发生或已经完成的动作对现在造成的影响或结果,由此可知,空格处应使用现在完成时。故空格处填have helped。
Ⅵ.短文改错
“Chinese style of crossing the road” was often heard in our daily life.Obvious,it means breaking the traffic rules.And it can easily cause traffic jams,even traffic accident.
So that is necessary for us to arouse pedestrians' awareness of obey traffic rules and improve urban management at the same time.Besides,roads can be widened balance cars or pedestrians.More traffic lights are needed to be set to improve a situation.What's more,fines must be imposed to stop people of crossing roads at wrong time and in wrong places.
With tough measures and awareness of safety,I think the streams of traffic will flow more smoothly and you will never see the phenomenon of “Chinese style of crossing the road” not any longer.
