26、In a study published in The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, Diana Deutsch of the University of California and her co-authors find that musicians who speak an East Asian tone language fluently are much more likely to have perfect pitch(音高).
Unlike English, many East Asian languages, such as Mandarin, Cantonese and Vietnamese, are “tonal”, so that a word’s meaning often depends on the tone in which it is said. So learning perfect pitch is, for fluent speakers of a tone language, similar to learning a second tone language.
The study looked at 203 students at the University of Southern California’s Thornton School of Music through a test. The students listened to the 36 notes. They attempted to identify the notes, and they self-reported their musical, ethnic and linguistic backgrounds — including whether they were very fluent in an East Asian tone language, fairly fluent or not at all fluent. Deutsch and her colleagues found that students who spoke an East Asian tone language very fluently scored nearly 100 percent on the test, and that students who were only fairly fluent in a tone language scored lower overall. Those students who were not at all fluent in speaking a tone language scored the worst on average.
Deutsch acknowledges that it still remains to be discovered why and how it is that some speakers of non-tone languages have perfect pitch. She expects it to be related to either an exceptionally long “critical window” for language acquisition, a very early musical upbringing, or both.
“Perfect pitch for years seemed like a beautiful gift — given only to a few genetically talented people. But our research suggests that it might be available to virtually everybody,” Deutsch said. She also proposed that parents who want their kids to acquire perfect pitch should expose them to musical tones from infancy onwards.
【1】What makes East Asian language speakers have perfect pitch?
A．Their tonal language.
B．Their various dialect.
C．Their musical talent.
D．Their large vocabulary.
【2】Who performed best in the test according to paragraph 3?
A．Students from Asia.
B．Students from America.
C．Students who speak English quite fluently.
D．Students who speak a tone language very fluently.
【3】What is the purpose of paragraph 4?
A．To summarize the paragraphs above.
B．To provide some advice for readers.
C．To add some background information.
D．To introduce the main idea of the text.
【4】How can people develop perfect pitch according to Deutsch?
A．By practicing communication skills.
B．By developing an interest in writing songs.
C．By acquiring as many languages as possible.
D．By receiving musical education from childhood.
27、How to Be a Winner
Sir Steven Redgrave
Winner of 5 Olympic Gold Medals
"In 1997 I was found to have developed diabetes (糖尿病). Believing my career was over, I felt extremely low. Then one of the specialists said there was no reason why I should stop training and competing. That was it the encouragement I needed. I could still be a winner if I believed in myself. I am not saying that it isn't difficult sometimes. But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn't finished yet. Nothing is to stand in my way. "
Karen Pickering

Trust yourself, write down your goals for the day, however small they are, and you'll be a step closer to achieving them."

29、 On November 14, 1902, President Theodore Roosevelt was on a hunting trip in Mississippi while trying to settle a line(边界) problem between Mississippi and Louisiana. Being an expert outdoorsman, he liked to hunt large animals.
However, his hunt was going poorly that days, and he couldn’t seem to find anything worthy of firing his gun. His followers, trying to help him, caught a Louisiana black baby bear for the President to shoot, but he refused. The thought of shooting a bear that was tied to a tree did not seem sporting, so he spared the life of the baby bear and set it free.
A famous political cartoonist for the Washington Star, Mr. Clifford Berryman, drew a cartoon titled, Drawing the Line in Mississippi, which used the story of the President refusing to shoot the bear.
The cartoon in the Washington Star showed Teddy Roosevelt, gun in hand, with his back turned on a pretty baby bear. Morris Michtom, owner of a Brooklyn toy store, got the idea from the cartoon and make a toy bear. Planning to use it only as a display, he placed the bear in his toy store window, and next to it placed a copy of the cartoon from the newspaper. To Michtom's surprise, he was surrounded by customers eager to buy it. He asked for and received President Roosevelt's permission to use his name for the bears that he and his wife made, and the Teddy Bear was born! Michtom soon made Teddy bears by the thousands. The money from selling Teddy bears made him, in 1903, form the Ideal Toy Company.
【1】Why did Theodore Roosevelt come to Mississippi?
A. To go on a hunting trip. B. To look for large animals.
C. To do some outdoor games. D. To deal with a line problem.
【2】Why did Theodore Roosevelt refuse to shoot that baby bear?

C. He was not hunting. D. It was too young.

B. He liked drawing cartoons of bears.
