24、Tons of people enjoy listening to different types of music while they paint, write, or draw. Many believe that music helps get the creative juices flowing, but an international new study is challenging that view by putting volunteers through a series of tests.

The study was performed as a joint partnership between psychologists at three universities in Europe. The results suggest that any task that relies on verbal(与文字有关的) creativity was impaired(削弱) when listening to any type of music.

Subjects(受试者) in the project all spoke English as their first language, and had no problem in their sight or hearing.

The tasks were simple word games. For example, subjects were given three words, such as dress, shine, and flower. Then, they were asked to find a single word which could be connected with all three to form a common phrase or word. The single word, in this case, would be “sun” (sundress, sunflower, etc).

Subjects completed the tasks in either a quiet room, or while they were played background music with foreign lyrics(歌词), English lyrics, and instrumental music with no lyrics at all.

The research team also tested the library background noises, but found that such noises had no great difference in subjects’ creativity. The study’s authors believe that was the case because library noise is a “steady state” environment which is not as disruptive(扰乱的). Music with or without lyrics is characterized by changes in pitch or tone.

It’s worth mentioning that even familiar music with well known lyrics impaired subjects’ creativity, even when subjects declared that they worked or studied with music on regularly and the music improved their overall mood.

So next time you sit down for a study session with those lo-fi beats, you may be giving your brain something else to focus on rather than your work.

【1】What does “that view” in Paragraph 1 refer to?

A．Listening to music while working is so common.

【2】According to the word game in Paragraph 4, if volunteers are given three words “foot, base, basket”, what is the single word?

A．Case.

B．Line.

C．Print.

D．Ball.

【3】Which of the following had no great difference in performance of the verbal tasks?

A．Familiar music with well known lyrics.

B．The quiet and library noise conditions.

C．Background music with foreign lyrics.

D．Instrumental music with no lyrics.

【4】According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A．Music cannot disrupt the verbal working memory of the disabled.

B．Different kinds of music impair different parts of our brains.

C．You may do your best work without listening to music.

D．Library noises are characterized by changes in pitch or tone.

26、The water tap was leaking (漏水) again, and the noise was driving Cassie crazy.

Cassie looked at her watch. It was nearly nine o’clock. She climbed out of bed and stood on a chair by the shelf. Her mother’s Mr. Fix-It Book was on the top shelf. Cassie stepped down quietly. She read the book quickly until she found the page she was looking for, and then began to read carefully.

Next, Cassie opened a box in the kitchen and picked out the tools she needed — a hammer, a wrench, and several small things. It was no easy job for her to do the repair, and she tried several times. Finally, the water tap was in pieces. One by one, she carefully laid them out on the table. That way she would know how they went back. While this was going on, her cat walked over to watch what she was doing.

Cassie worked late into the night. At one point, she thought she was done. Oops! A small piece that she had forgotten still lay on the table. Slowly Cassie took the water tap apart（分开）one more time. This time she made sure everything was in place. She turned the water tap on and then off. One…two…three…She waited a full minute. There was no leak! Cassie smiled and put the tools back into the box. Then she went back into bed.

The next morning, Dad was in the kitchen when Cassie got up.

“Notice anything, Dad?” she asked.

He looked around and listened. “Hmm, something’s missing… I can’t find out what it is… Wait, it’s too quiet in here!”

“That’s right,” Cassie said. “Something is missing. I fixed the water tap. It doesn’t leak

any more.”

“That’s my girl,” Dad said, “It’s a good thing you are really like your mother.”

27、When I looked at the grade on my math paper, my jaw(下巴) almost dropped to the ground: a big “65” in bright red ink.I had never received such a terrible grade before.

When I got home that afternoon, I lied to my dad.I told him I got 85 and that the report wouldn’t come until the end of the month. Dad smiled.His daughter would never lie about her grade, so he didn’t doubt my words.

A month later, Dad asked me again about the report at the dinner table.He looked right into my eyes and asked for an answer.Having no choice, I told him that I had in fact got just 65 in my math final.I had lied because I didn’t want to let him down.

For a moment, he just looked at me.I would have preferred a telling off than that silence. Finally, Dad said, in a hurt voice, “You have already let me down, with your lie.I am not disappointed at your math score.No one can be perfect all the time.But I am very disappointed in you.If you can’t be honest with your dad, who can you be honest with? It’s much easier to get a better grade than rebuild someone else’s trust(信任) in you.”

Dad’s words touched my heart.I could not forgive myself for having hurt his feelings.I took out the report that I had been hiding for weeks, handed it to him and apologized(道歉) sincerely.I realized that my honesty is not only important to me, but to those around me that truly care about me.

In one of Shakespeare’s plays, a person says, “No legacy(遗产) is so rich as honesty.” Now I understand those words.

28、B. 根据短文内容和所给中文提示，在空白处写出单词的正确形式。每空限填一词。

  At school many things【1】（发生）to us. We may feel【2】（激动的）when we succeed in a school play. We may feel sorry if we lose an important match. We want to keep the memory in our lives. How to keep memories? Our teacher, Mr. Green, has taught 【3】（我们）how to remember things to make our own yearbook. A yearbook is a【4】（种类）of book which is used to memory wonderful【5】（时刻）. It’s usually made at the end of year. Last 【6】（十二月）, we began to make our yearbook. First we chose the persons that had done something 【7】（特殊的）, then some students interviewed them, some 【8】（写）down their stories, others took 【9】（照片）of them. Finally, our teacher helped us to put things 【10】（一起）. Then we had our first yearbook.

29、A team of students who were successful in their work got together to visit their old teacher after graduating from college many years later. The talk soon turned into complaints about     in work and life.

Before offering his students coffee, the teacher went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and different kinds of cups—plastic, glass, porcelain(陶瓷), crystal(水晶), some common and cheap, some beautiful and   16   —telling them to help themselves to the coffee.

After all the guests had a cup of coffee in hand, the teacher said: “If you noticed, all the nice-looking expensive cups were taken, leaving behind the common and cheap ones. While it is for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is where your problems and stress come from. We all know that the cup itself   no quality to the coffee. In most cases is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you all went for the best cups.
