26、Gong Linna, renowned Chinese musician and founder of Chinese New Art Music, put her music teaching methods to practice for the first time at the Tracing Roots practice concert and music festival of the Affiliated High School of Peking University on May 23.
The first song of the concert，Search High and Low，is an allusion(暗指)to the classical poem Li Sao, “The road ahead will be long. I shall search high and low.” “It’s arranged to be sung by all performers，indicating that we should all search high and low for our roots,” Gong says.
To explore the education and the popularization of Chinese music, in 2017，Gong established a research and development team, which includes ethnomusicologist, Du Yaxiong, and music historian, Zhao Zhongming, to deliberate her music teaching methods and summarize the vocal skills of Chinese music.
Gong believed that the popularization of Chinese music should rely on primary and secondary schools rather than music academies. The children’s passion for music and their outstanding performance amazed Gong, “When singing, they are completely immersed in the music. Music brings light and richness to one’s spiritual world. So, learning to sing is never about passing examinations, but about enjoying the music.”
Lu Yueming, instructor of the school’s art center, said, “The children worked really hard and kept in mind Gong’s instructions. Seeing their performance, I know that they truly fell in love with traditional Chinese music.”
Lu Yueming, instructor of the school’s art center, said, “The children worked really hard and kept in mind Gong’s instructions. Seeing their performance, I know that they truly fell in love with traditional Chinese music.”
“Seeing the children perform my pieces, I realized I should write more songs for them,” Lao Luo, Gong’s husband said proudly. “It’s a great encouragement for me to see how much they like the songs, and they really need content related to Chinese culture.” With an international vision, Gong will continue to write songs based on Chinese folk music or ancient poems.
Gong said children should learn about the beauty of Chinese music. Only when you know about your own sounds, can you have cultural confidence.
【1】Why is the song Search High and Low arranged at the concert?
A．Because Gong is a renowned Chinese musician.
B．Because people are expected to search their roots.
C．Because Gong’s music teaching method is practical.
D．Because Gong wants to deliberate her music teaching method.
【2】What should the popularization of Chinese music depend on according to Gong?
A．Music academies.
B．The support of the government.
C．Primary and secondary schools.
D．Famous musicians across the country.
【3】What is Gong’s future plan in music?
A．She will train more children to study abroad.
B．She will perform more concerts to promote Chinese music.
C．She will help children learn about the beauty of various types of music.
D．She will write more songs based on Chinese folk music or ancient poems.
【4】What’s the best title of the passage?
A．Creating Music Helps Cultural Confidence
B．Gong Linna—My Dramatist
C．Music Education Gets New Voice
D．Chinese Music: Development, Instruments
27、You know that eating healthy, staying active, and solving a few brain games can help keep your memory. But the following lesser-known habits work wonders too.
1. 【1】
When we sit with our shoulders bent forward, this defeated position actually causes us to feel anxious or depressed — which makes it harder to think clearly and remember things. Conversely (反过来), straight upright posture apparently improves memory because it boosts blood and oxygen flow to the brain.
2. Exercise — Once
Having trouble remembering faces? 【2】 In a study, pictures of faces were shown to
older folks after they pedal a stationary (静止的) bike at an intense pace or simply sit on a self-pedaling bike. On average, people remembered the faces better after the intense exercise. What’s more, the memory gains after a single workout were similar to the gains after 3 months of regular exercise.
3. Limit TV
Every parent and grandparent has heard that too much screen time can hurt a child’s
cognitive development. 【3】 According to a study, people (aged 50 or older) who watched
more than 3.5 hours of TV a day for 6 years experienced a greater drop in verbal memory test scores than those who watched less.
4. Draw aimlessly
A research shows those who drew the words remembered the most when recalling words. That’s because while some parts of the brain about getting memory back become worse as people
grow older, the picture processing regions usually don’t. 【4】
5. Walk Backward
【5】 Walk back! Backward motion — whether real, imagined, or watched — helps people remember the information better than sitting still and, in most cases, better than forward motion. It may be that moving backward in space mentally helps us move back in time to the moment we learned something.
A．Sit Tall.
B．Stand Straight.
C．Start more workouts.
D．Sweat for physical training.
E．Thus sketching can help adults keep their memory sharp.
F．But what about those at the other end of their life span?
G．Next time you’re trying to recall something, don’t just think back.
28、Some of the recent scientific studies have found that people who receive higher education live longer than those who do not. According to a new study, reading books extends lifespan(寿命) by up to two years, and the more often you read, the better.
Back in 1975, economists concluded that longer lifespan is linked to the wealth of a person, and that wealth itself increases longevity. It seemed self-evident: everything people need to be healthy from food to medical care costs money. But soon it was realized that the data didn’t always fit that theory. Economic success didn’t always mean longer lives.In the 1980s, researchers found gaining higher education is connected with a greater increase in lifespan than gains in wealth.
One fact is of teachers and college professors: they live longer than the rest of the population. The reason is that they engage in research most of their lives for teaching or publishing, which increases their lifespan and most importantly also retards their aging process.
Let’s look at what benefits educated people. Educated people get routinely involved in social networks, they get access to information because of their ability to understand information. They can easily navigate (导航) the health care system; they have more social support.
Reading helps us understand how other people think and feel. Reading improves our emotional intelligence. This understanding can improve the quality of a person’s life as it would allow the person to act with better judgment and have more insight into the feelings and thought patterns of others. Research has shown that reading changes certain areas of the brain and causes certain other parts to be active. This effect can also be observed in adults who learn to read much later in life. Learning has no age bar. Each and every human is born with the right to be educated. So, don’t hold back your urge to learn. The goal of education is to improve intelligence as well as the lifespan.
【1】What did researchers find in the 1980s?
A．Education does affect peoples lifespan.
B．Health has nothing to do with wealth.
C．Economic success always belongs to professors.
D．Children from poor families can rarely gain higher education.
【2】What does the underlined word “retards” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A．speeds up
B．slows down
C．turns back
D．contributes to
【3】What is the advantage of educated people according to Paragraph 4?
A．They learn more about human body and medical care.
B．They can set up their own health care system.
C．They are more connected to the society.
D．They are skilled in doing research through social networks.
【4】What can we know about reading from the last paragraph?
A．It is effective against cancer.
B．It can change a person’s lifestyle completely.
C．It can help people understand humans brain better.
D．It is beneficial to peoples EQ and brain health.

32、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Craig watched his old sister, Riley, and her friend Liz race up and down the lake on their skates, avoiding other hockey(曲棍球) players. Their skate blades looked like silver smoke. When the game was over, the girls skated up to the bench where Craig was sitting. Craig asked Riley what skating felt like.
“When I go really fast, I feel like I am flying,” she said.
That is silly, thought Craig. Flying is something birds do in the air, not something people do on ice skates.
Then he watched Riley go back out on the ice. She skated around and around the edge of the lake with her arms pumping and her scarf trailing behind her. Soon she went so fast that her arms looked like wings and her scarf looked like a feathery tail. Maybe skating really was like flying.
When Riley sat down to take her skates off, Craig said, “I wish I could fly.”
Riley retied her skate laces and bent next to Craig. “Get on my back,” she said, and Craig did. Riley started skating, but Craig didn’t feel like he was flying. It just felt like a skating piggyback ride.
“You are too heavy,” Riley said, “I can’t go fast when I am carrying you.” She skated slowly back to the bench. Craig got off her back. “Even if you could go fast, I wouldn’t be flying.” he said sadly. “I need skates to fly.”
Riley didn’t say anything on the walk home, but a few days later she asked Craig if he wanted to go skating.
“To watch?” he asked. “No, to skate,” she said cheerfully. “Mom and I found a pair of my old skates. They might fit you.” The skates were a little big, but when Riley stuffed newspaper in the toes, they fit. Craig couldn’t stop smiling. He didn’t want to take them off, but he had to so he could walk to the lake. Riley and Liz went with him. They carried their hockey sticks and a wooden chair. Hardly had they got to the lake when Craig put his skates back on and Riley helped him onto the ice.
Paragraph 1:
Then she put his hands on the back of the chair.
