22．（8分）Do you listen to the songs that your parents like? Chance are that you don’t. You probably think the music that they like is old and dull and that the Songs on your playlist are much cooler.
But here is what scientists found recently: people’s music tastes change as they age, according to a study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology. So it’s likely that your own musical preference will follow a similar path to your parents’ whether you like it or not.
We used to think that culture and personality arc the only factors that affect one’s music choice. But researchers at the University of Cambridge, UK, gathered data from more than 250,000 people over the past 10 years. They noticed that as people age, their social circumstances change, and so does their music taste.
There are three musical periods that people pass through as they mature-intense”, “contemporary” and “sophisticated”.
The first period comes in the teenagers years, during which time people like intense music such as punk and rock because teenagers tend to be aggressive and want to establish their identity as independent individuals.
But as people move into early adulthood, their lifestyle changes—they socialize more and want to build close relationships with others. As a result, they become more fond of contemporary music, such as pop and R&B, which is usually uplifting and danceable and played at parties where people hang out together and chat.
When middle age comes, things have settled down for most people. This period will be dominated (支配) by more “sophisticated” music, such as jazz and classical, as well as more catchy music like country, folk, and blues.
“For many, this life stage is frequently exhausted by work and family, and there is a requirement for relaxing, emotive (动情的) music,” Jason Rentfrow, a researcher member, told The telegraph.
But you must be thinking: “Aren’t there old people who are still into rock music?” Of course there are. But Rentfrow explained that their reasons for listening to rock music may have changed. “We use music for different reasons,” he said, and thus at that age people may listen to remind themselves of their youths.
1、Why do children usually like different songs from their parents according to the passage?
A．Children prefer cool music.
B．Music taste changes with age.
C．parents’ songs are always dull.
D．Parents have better social circumstances.
2、The underlined word “catchy” in Paragraph 7 probably means ________.
A．touching and easily remembered B．awkward and easily captured
C．elegant but difficult to understand D．flexible and difficult to catch
3、Middle age is a period when people ________.
A．have an aggressive goal B．like Pop and R&B
C．desire close connections with others D．lead a stressful life
4、What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．Old people don’t like rock music. B．Music can serve as a reminder.
C．Rock music makes old people younger. D．Listening to rock music needs reasons.
5、What’s the main idea of the passage?
A．Why do people like music?
B．How can you improve your music talent?
C．What influences peopled music taste?
D．Why do different people like different music?
