Allen, 54, suffered the terrible injuries during the first Gulf War. Allen said, “Lucky changed my life, and I decided that if I could be helped in my situation, there were lots of other ex-servicemen（退役军人）could be helped. I wanted to do something for them to get the full benefits from being matched with one of our assistance dogs.”‎ Before he met Lucky, he felt it was such a really difficult time that he thought of taking his own life because he couldn’t deal with being disabled, especially being in a wheelchair. But his life changed when one day, seven years after his accident, he went with his wife Sandra to the dog-training center where she worked and met Lucky. Lucky took an instant shine to him and picked something up and put it on his hand. He could see Allen was struggling. He got him to smile for the first time since the accident. Allen adopted the dog and Lucky was his constant companion.‎ He could communicate with the dog better than with people, including his family. Lucky helped him emotionally. Incredibly（难以置信地）, he saved Allen’s life when he was knocked from his wheelchair by a car.

In fact, there is a growing field of health care known as music therapy（疗法）, which uses music to treat diseases. Even hospitals are beginning to use music therapy. This is not surprising, as music affects the body and mind in many powerful ways.‎ Research has shown that quick music can make a person feel more alert, while slow ‎ music can produce a calm, deep thinking state. Also, research has found that music can change brainwave activity levels. This can help the brain to change speeds more easily on its own as needed, which means that music can bring lasting benefits to your state of mind, even after you’ve stopped listening.‎ Breathing and heart rate（心律）can also be influenced by music. This can mean slower breathing, and slower heart rate. This is why music and music therapy can help reduce the damaging effects of long-term stress, greatly promoting not only relaxation, but health.‎ Music can also be used to bring about a more positive state of mind by helping to keep worries away.

However, a group of senior Chinese ladies dancing in New York’s Sunset Park were recently faced with noise complaints from nearby people. The local court even served a summons（传票）related to a certain Ms. Wang.‎ The news soon caused heated discussion across China. Some believe that the unpleasant thing will involve a cultural conflict between the East and West, while others view it as a form of discrimination（歧视）against Chinese in the United States.‎ The United States is a society which has a range of many people and things. And in many cases, Chinese dancers are tolerated（容忍）and even appreciated. Meanwhile, the United States is a society based on the rule of law and due to cultural differences, local regulations seem to be very different from those in China. As a result, some old Chinese ladies dancing in New York’s Sunset Park found themselves caught in an embarrassing situation. Locals and immigrants from other nations view such noise as a violation of their right to enjoy quietness. Calling the police is regarded as the most efficient way to solve such a problem.‎ Before, these ladies probably did not understand local customs and rules. However, since the incident took place, they should perhaps know a little better next time and keep the noise down. People from different nations are often supposed to reach agreements, respecting and tolerating each other.‎ If the involved parties could be more tolerant, and solve such problems without involving the court, perhaps immigrants would mix more.‎ ‎12. The writer mentions the incident in Paragraph 1 to .‎ A. introduce the topic B. ask the question C. give examples D. support the local policeman ‎13. What will the senior Chinese ladies probably do after the incident?‎ A. Back to China. B. Keep the noise lower.‎ C. Require America to change its law. D. Fight for their freedom.‎ ‎14.

A newspaper. D. A science report.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Have you ever crossed the road to avoid talking to someone you recognize? 16 Do you want to make more friends but lack the confidence to talk to people you don’t know?‎ You needn’t worry about situations like these if you have good social skills. 17 It helps if you do a little advance planning.‎ First, learn how to so small talk. Small talk is very important and prepares you for more serious conversations. 18 Have some low-risk conversation openers ready.
