A new study suggests that listening to music in the office improves the speed and accuracy of tasks such as data entry, proofreading and ‎ problem solving. In an officebased experiment, 88 per cent of participants were found to produce their most accurate work when listening to music.‎ The study also found that 81 per cent completed their work fastest when music was played. And it matters what type of music you listen to. For instance, if you're doing your tax returns, then classical music is the most effective as it improves maths skills.‎ Listening to Jessie J or Justin Bieber could also improve your speed, with 58 per cent of participants completing data entry tasks faster while listening to pop songs. During proofreading, dance music, such as David Guetta, had the biggest positive impact with participants increasing their speed by 20 per cent compared to tests undertaken with no music at all. Dance music also had a positive effect on spellchecking with a 75 per cent pass rate compared to 68 per cent when no music was played at all.‎ The research, undertaken by Brightonbased Mindlab International, suggests that silent offices may be the least productive.The Music Works experiment revealed (揭示) a positive correlation between music and productivity.Overall, it showed that when listening to music, nine out of ten people performed better, said Dr David Lewis, chairman of Mindlab International.‎ ‎21．Whose music can help you do maths homework according to the study?‎ A．The music of Justin Bieber.‎ B．The music of Mozart.‎ C．The music of David Guetta.‎ D．The music of David Lewis.‎ ‎22．Which of the following is NOT mentioned according to the passage?‎ A．Music makes you relaxed.‎ B．Music helps you to enter data faster.‎ C．Music improves maths skills.‎ D．Music has a positive effect on spellchecking.‎ ‎23．The result of the experiment showed that when music was played, ________.‎ A．88% of people worked faster B．81% of people did their most accurate work C．90% of people worked better D．75% of people completed data entry task faster ‎24．What can we conclude from the passage?‎ A．Music may be helpless to people in office.‎ B．Silent offices can make people work better.‎ C．Different kinds of music have the same effect.‎ D．Silent offices may make people work least profitably.‎ B Your kids learn a lot from their friends — things you can't teach them, no matter how much you want to.‎ Probably the most important thing kids learn is how to have peer relationships. As a parent, you can't do this, because you and your child aren't equals.‎ For example, when you're sitting on your family room floor and your very young child asks you to pass him the blocks, you probably hand them right over. If your child is sitting with a peer and asks the same thing, though, he might not get what he wants.‎ To succeed, your child will need to learn strategies for getting what he wants. For example, he might simply yank (猛拉) the toy out of his friend's hand. If he does that, he may learn that it's not the best way of getting what he wants because it leads to fighting and timeouts. The successful child will learn that he needs to negotiate a trade, to wait patiently, or to find something else equally fun to play with.‎ Friends also provide emotional support, something that is part of the foundation of healthy adulthood. You can't be with your child on the elementary school playground or at the high school dance. Your child's friends will be the ones to stick_up_for her, to include her in games, and later, to tell her she looks great even if her lousy prom (糟糕的舞会) date wanders off instead of dancing with her.‎ Friends also help your children learn. Friends solve problems together, imitate each other, and pass on knowledge.‎ Some experts believe that the single biggest predictor of your child's success later in life is her ability to make friends. In fact, they claim it's even more important than IQ and grades.‎ This doesn't mean that the kids who are most popular in school do the best later on in life. What matters is not the number of friends a child has but rather the quality of the relationships.‎ This is good news for those of us who hate to think that popularity really is the Holy Grail of childhood and adolescence. While it's true that popularity has many ‎ advantages, and that many popular kids really are nice people — and not just the best dressed or best looking — it's better to have a few good friends than to have the admiration of the masses.‎ ‎25．By giving the example in Paragraph 3, the author wants to show that ________.‎ A．kids can learn how to deal with the relationships when they stay with their peers B．parents should spend more spare time playing with their kids C．kids should learn how to be polite when they ask their parents for help D．parents can teach their kids how to be good members in the modern society in their daily life ‎26．What does the underlined phrase “stick up for” in the fifth paragraph mean?‎ A．Envy.　　　　　　　 B．Oppose.‎ C．Support. D．Ignore.‎ ‎27．In the author's opinion, ________ is more important than being popular for kids.‎ A．getting high grades B．having some real friends C．developing a good habit D．knowing how to dress themselves up ‎28．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?‎ A．How to Bridge the Generation Gap B．What It Takes to Be a Good Friend C．Why Friends Are Important D．How to Be Popular in School C Scientists in Argentina have created the world's first cow with two human genes that will enable it to produce humanlike milk.‎ Genetic engineering was used to introduce the “mothers' milk” genes into the animal before birth, according to the National Institute of Agribusiness Technology in Buenos Aires.‎ As an adult, the cloned cow “will produce milk that is similar to that of humans”， which will prove “a development of great importance for the nutrition of infants (婴儿)”， said the institute. “The cloned cow, named Rosita ISA, is the first in ‎ the world with two human genes that contain the proteins present in human milk，” said the statement.‎ In April, scientists in China published details of research showing that they had created dairy cows which produced milk containing proteins found in human breast milk. But the Argentine team said the Chinese only introduced one human gene, while their research involved two, meaning the milk will more_closely_resemble that of humans.‎ ‎“Our goal was to raise the nutrition value of cows' milk by adding two human genes, which do good to the immune system of infants，” said Adrian Mutto, from the National University of San Martin which worked with the institute.‎ Cristina Kirchner, President of Argentina, said the scientific institute made all Argentines proud. She also said that she had rejected the “honor” of having the cow named after her. “They came to tell me that the name is Cristina, but what woman would like to have a cow named after her? It appeared to me to be more proper to call it Rosita.”‎ ‎29．What is the passage mainly about?‎ A．The importance of genetic engineering.‎ B．Ways to improve mothers' milk.‎ C．A cloned cow to produce humanlike milk.‎ D．Advanced agricultural technology in Argentina.‎ ‎30．Which of the following can best replace “more closely resemble” in Paragraph 4?‎ A．have more varieties than　 B．be more similar to C．have more nutrition than D．be more different from ‎31．What can be inferred from Cristina Kirchner's statements?‎ A．She was quite satisfied with the research done by the institute.‎ B．She considered it an honor to name the special cow.‎ C．She felt it improper to be named after the cow.‎ D．She refused to give a name to the cow out of selfrespect.‎ D Mayor Bill de Blasio designated (指定) the Lunar New Year an official public school holiday in New York City in June, 2015.‎ The move came after de Blasio in March, 2015 declared school holidays on the mostobserved holidays in Islam, Eid alFitr and Eid alAdha. De Blasio, ‎ making_good_on a promise made during his 2013 mayoral campaign, said students would also have a day off on the Lunar New Year, and not long ago the Asian holiday took place on February 8, 2016.‎ ‎“About 15% of the city's school system is of Asian descent (血统), and many students have been taking the day off as a sick day，” said State Senator Daniel Squadron. “It's a big deal，” he said, whose district includes Manhattan's Chinatown. “Families have had to choose between their most important cultural celebration and missing a day of school.”‎ The city's Department of Education had been working on the practical arrangements for adding another holiday while maintaining the legal 180 school days. The problem was solved by combining two half days that previously did not count towards the total to form a single full day that can be counted towards the total. After San Francisco‎, ‎New York is the second major urban school district to add the Lunar New Year to the official school calendar.‎ ‎“This holiday is not about kids just getting a day off from school，” said Assemblyman Ron Kim. “It's about the City of New York telling hundreds of AsianAmerican societies that America is a cultural melting pot.” Kim said recognizing the holiday is one way of pushing back against feelings of isolation and marginalization (边缘化) felt by the AsianAmerican community.‎ ‎32.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?‎ A．Make use of.　　　　　 B．Stand by.‎ C．Keep up with. D．Go against.‎ ‎33．How does New York make the Lunar New Year an official public school holiday?‎ A．By cancelling a legal 1day holiday.‎ B．By copying the way of San Francisco.‎ C．By adding a new full day to the school calendar.‎ D．By changing the legal 180 school days.‎ ‎34．What do we know from Ron Kim's words?‎ A．He's opposed to the new school holiday.‎ B．Asian culture is valued most in New York.‎ C．Asian culture is part of the American society.‎ D．The holiday wipes out Asian Americans' isolation.‎ ‎35．What's the best title for this passage?‎ A．A new public school holiday in ‎New York B．A promise made by the mayor of ‎New York C．Cultural differences between America and ‎Asia D．A revolution of the Lunar New Year in ‎New York 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）‎ The opportunity to work at home can be an achievable dream: no time spent commuting, no sitting in traffic, and the flexibility to work wherever and maybe even whenever you want. __36__ Others find that the isolation (隔离) causes depression, which is bad for both their personal and professional life.
