Why is music an important subject that every child should study?
First of all, music helps us when we are unhappy, and gives us pleasure when we are happy. There are many different kinds of music: slow and fast, serious and relaxing. 1.我们可以听我们喜欢的音乐。And second, music is fun. People enjoys playing a drum and using their energy.
2.科学家们认为孩子们应该被允许学习音乐。They say music helps children with language learning. Singing simple songs is good for young children. Music improves the ear and we know that children who have studied music can learn foreign languages more easily and pronounce them much better. 3.Students who have learnt to play music are also better at math. This is not surprising, as music is mathematical (数学的), with notes in order. Playing music with other people also teaches children to work together. People who can play musical instruments always have something they can do at a party. Children who play in school bands enjoy school more and do not drop out of school early.
We need a lot of practice to play an instrument, and it can be difficult for parents to ask their child to spend hours at the piano or playing the guitar. 4.So music practice should be a daily habit, but do not make the practice too long.
Parents should listen to their child playing and tell him or her that they enjoy it. Practice should also be fun. 5. It’s also a good idea to finish the practice with a piece of music the child likes, and so learning music will be a relaxing part of the day.

25、Everyone has got two personalities—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control your behaviour,but when you're asleep,your sleeping position shows the real you.

If you sleep on your side,you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious,but you don't often get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people.

27、Have you ever heard of ewaste(电子垃圾), which can be produced every day? How do you deal with your computers, MP4 players and mobile phones when they're broken or you want a new one?
Most people just throw them away. With the development of electronic industry (电子产业), ewaste pollution has become a serious problem. According to the United Nations, in 2014, people around the world produced 41.8 million tons of ewaste and only recycled 6.5 million tons. The US was the biggest waster, producing 7.1 million tons. China came second, with 6 million tons.
It's important to pay attention to ewaste. It can either be valuable or harmful, depending on how we deal with it. Ewaste is a valuable urban mine(城市矿藏). The value of the metals, like gold and silver in the waste around the world, is surprising. And the metals can be reused. But if people throw them away, the toxic chemicals(有毒化学物质) can get into the earth or air, affecting the environment and people's health.
Apple, for example, now recycles people's used products in China when they are buying new ones. The company will test and repair the used ones and sell them at lower prices. To help reduce ewaste, we can also take computers and phones to see if companies offer recycling programmes.
【1】The following can become ewaste EXCEPT________.
A. computers B. mobile phones
C. plastic bags D. MP4 players
【2】Which country produced most ewaste in 2014 according to the United Nations?
A. America. B. China.
C. Japan. D. France.
【3】From Paragraph 4, we learn that________.
A. the recycled Apple products will be sold at higher prices
B. buying longer lasting electronic products is a good way to reduce ewaste
C. it's better to keep the unwanted electronics in your bedroom
D. some companies offer to recycle the used electronic products
【4】The main purpose of this passage is to________.
A. prove that ewaste is useless
B. encourage people to buy more electronic products
C. advise people to deal with ewaste properly to reduce pollution
D. advise people to sell the unwanted electronics

The Girl No One Talked to
Last year there was a girl at our school who hardly anyone talked to. I think it was because she seldom showered, and she kind of smelled bad. Her name was Cindy Lindburg. I didn’t know exactly where she ______, but it must have been somewhere in the neighborhood because we always got on the school bus at the same bus stop.
One day, I was walking up to the bus stop and I saw Carl making fun of her. I couldn’t hear what he was saying, but I saw how sad it made Cindy. As soon as I got close enough, I glared (怒视) at Carl to make him ______ laughing. But it didn’t work. So I walked over and stood closer to Cindy to make sure she wouldn’t feel quite so bad. It was just one of those times when you just knew someone needed someone to be a friend.
I didn’t think she’d say anything, but she did. Her eyes peeked up from staring at the ground and whispered (低声说), “Hi.”
“Hi,” I said. Then as ______ as I could, I said, “Don’t pay any attention to Carl! His parents have been unsuccessful in teaching him some manners.”
Some of the kids around us laughed after they heard what I had said. By now everyone there was talking with a friend. Quietly, and with a serious look on her face, Cindy said, “I don’t know why everyone ______ me.”
I was surprised at her words. “No one hates you,” I told her.
“Then why don’t I have any friends?” she asked.
I thought for a moment. “Well,” I began, wondering if I could tell her that maybe it was because she smelled so ______, “I think you’re smart, and you dress okay, and…”
“So then, what is it?” she asked.
“Maybe it’s because you…” I paused because I almost said “stink” (发出臭味) but instead, “don’t smell so good.”
She looked up, ______ my face as if checking to see if I was making fun of her or being mean. I guess she decided I wasn’t. She nodded. I added, “I think you’d probably make more friends if you took more ______.” She looked away. I worried that I might have gone too far.
Turning back to face me, Cindy took a deep breath and said, “Thank you.” I was so relieved, and the next moment the bus arrived, and all the kids started getting on.
“If I save a seat for you on the bus tomorrow,” she asked, “will you sit with me?”
“Sure,” I said.
I’m happy to report that Cindy did take more baths from that day on. And it wasn’t too long before she started to make ______ at school. I was one of them.
