A

Background music may seem harmless,but it can have a powerful effect on those who hear it.Recorded background music first found its way into factories,shops and restaurants in the US.But it soon spread to other parts of the world.Now it is becoming increasingly difficult to go shopping or eat a meal without listening to music.
To begin with,“muzak” (背景音乐) was intended simply to create a soothing (抚慰的) atmosphere.Recently,however,it has become big business—thanks in part to recent research.Dr Ronald
28
Milliman,an American marketing expert,has shown that music can boost sales or increase factory production by as much as a third.
However,it has to be light music.A fast one has no effect at all on sales.Slow music can increase receipts by 38%.This is probably because shoppers slow down and have more opportunity to spot items they like to buy.Yet,slow music isn’t always the answer.Dr Milliman found,for example,that in restaurants slow music meant customers took longer to eat their meals,which reduced overall sales.So restaurant owners might be well advised to play uptempo music to keep the customers moving—unless of course,the resulting indigestion (消化不良) leads to complaints!
21.Background music means .
A.light music that customers enjoy most
B.fast music that makes people move fast
C.slow music that can make customers enjoy their meals
D.the music you are listening to while you are doing something
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。选项中的前三项均只是背景音乐中的一部分,只有D项是完整的概括。
22.Restaurant owners complain about slow music because .
A.it results in indigestion
B.it increases their sales
C.it keeps customers moving
D.it decreases their sales
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。由文章最后一段可知,如果播放慢速背景音乐,客人的就餐时间就会变长,这样就会导致营业额的整体下滑,这样的结果餐馆老板自然要抱怨。
23.We can know from the text that .
28
A.background music was first used in big department stores
B.proper music can increase the selling of goods
C.light music has a bad effect on production
D.restaurant owners had better play slow music to comfort their customers
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。由第二段中的“has shown that music can boost sales”可知,恰当的音乐可以促进销售。
24.The underlined expression “uptempo music” probably means .
A.slow music
B.fast music
C.light music
D.classical music
答案:B
解析:词义猜测题。由上文中的“in restaurants slow music meant customers took longer to eat their meals”可知,如果播放节奏慢的音乐,客人吃饭速度会变慢。为了让客人流动得快,自然要播放节奏快的音乐。

Researchers P.Jason Rentfrow and Samuel Gosling gave 3,500 people a personality quiz.“We found that the musical styles people like are closely linked to their personalities,” Gosling says.
RAP/HIP-HOP
Known for their quick speech,some rappers can say more than 700 syllables(音节)a minute!

If you like pop,you are attractive to your friends.You can make big things happen,like planning for a huge party or inspiring your team to victory.
ROCK/ALTERNATIVE
In the 1950s,rock music created a brand-new culture.Teenagers,for the first time,had an identity separate from adults and children.
28
If you like rock/alternative,you are a risk-taker who never accepts no for an answer.You rise to any challenge,like doing very well in a big exam or landing the lead in the school play.
If these personality profiles(人格剖析) don’t match you,that’s OK.These are just for fun.

Pharrell Williams takes a breath and considers how the past years have developed for him:ten Grammy Awards and a number of hit singles including a song that has caused countless fans to express how they are “happy”.
And the key,says the 43-year-old known simply as Pharrell,has been taking advantage of audiences’ (听众的) need for heartfelt personal stories.
“I think we’ve entered a new singer-songwriter time,” said the American singer and producer.“People want a story.They want a story they can connect to.It’s not about what you have or what you don’t have;it’s more about your journey and your viewpoint that’s important to people.”
Pharrell said he noticed a change in audiences’ tastes over the past year in particular with the sudden success of his song Happy,which received little fanfare upon its release but has turned into an international hit.Countless videos populate sites like YouTube with people from Portugal and China to Abu Dhabi and Iran singing and dancing along to the song.
After seeing how far his song traveled,the singer broke down in tears during a televised interview with the famous talk show host Oprah Winfrey.
“It’s just encouraging to people who have something to say,something to express,” he said.
The success has made Pharrell realize that people are searching for personal and emotional links (情感纽带),perhaps as a means of getting away from the modern technological world we’re living in today.
“People want to feel.There’s too much thinking to deal with,” the singer said.“We’re different from what we were 15 years ago.The only thing we have left that reminds (提醒) us that we are humans is feeling.It’s the most important thing ever.”
28.What’s the key to successful music according to Pharrell?
28
A.Writing happy songs.
B.Following your heart.
C.Telling moving stories.
D.Sharing personal experiences.
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段中的“And the key...has been taking advantage of audiences’ need for heartfelt personal stories.”和第三段中的“it’s more about your journey and your viewpoint that’s important to people.”可知,Pharrell认为音乐成功的关键在于要将个人的故事或观点赋予音乐中。
29.What can we learn about Pharrell’s song Happy?
A.It received a cold welcome.
B.It became popular overnight.
C.It changed audiences’ tastes in music.
D.It received different responses at home and abroad.
答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据第四段中的“his song Happy,which received little fanfare upon its release”可知,这首歌曲发行初期遭冷遇。
30.How did Pharrell feel about the success of his song?
A.It was caused by good luck.
B.It was within his expectations.
C.It gave him hope and confidence.
D.It prevented him giving up making music.
答案:C
28
解析:细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中的“It’s just encouraging to people who have something to say,something to express”可知,Happy这首歌的大获成功给了Pharrell希望和信心。
31.Why do people want to be connected to others emotionally?
A.They need someone to talk to.
B.They need others to help them think.
C.They are tired of their own personal life.
D.They feel less human in the technological world.
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“a means of getting away from the modern technological world we’re living in today”以及最后一段中的“People want to feel.”和“The only thing we have left that reminds us that we are humans is feeling.”可知,人们想相互之间建立情感纽带等联系是因为在虚拟的世界中感受甚少,觉得缺少人情味。
D

Stress is a word we hear a lot these days.People have stressful jobs;they feel stressed while studying for exams;even family life can be stressful.Stress can cause headaches and lack of sleep and research has shown that it is one of the main causes of heart disease.None of us can completely avoid stress.Everyone experiences it.
In ancient times,stress served a different purpose.It kept us alive.When a caveman was walking along and was suddenly faced with a lion,the stress he experienced would make him run away faster than he could usually run.Stress is the state our bodies experience when we need to react to difficult or dangerous situations.While stress saved us back then,and it is still very helpful in difficult situations,we need a break from stress every now and again.
Luckily,there are ways to relax and deal with stress and it seems that music might be our number one cure.A recent worldwide study showed that listening to music is what most people do to relax and reduce
28
stress.The study was based on interviews with 1,000 people in 30 countries and 56% said that listening to music was the best way to relax.Watching TV,at 53%,was the next most popular way of reducing stress followed by taking a shower or bath at 49%.It is not really surprising that listening to music is such a popular way of relaxing.It is cheap and widely available on radio,TV and the Internet.
Of course,musical tastes differ from person to person.Sam might love listening to loud heavy metal music to relax after a hard day’s work,but his neighbour—a fan of Mozart—might find hearing his music extremely stressful.“Sam needs an iPod”,you might be thinking and you are probably right.Mobile music players can provide music privately whenever and wherever it is needed;We could even call them the stress fighters of the 21st century.So the next time you feel stressed,take a deep breath,put on your earphones and...relax...
32.We can conclude from the passage that everyone can meet .
A.happiness
B.neighbors
C.stress
D.diseases
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。由第一段中的“None of us can completely avoid stress.Everyone experiences it.”可知,每个人都会遇到压力,故选C项。
33.Everyone experiences stress because .
A.the world has always been a stressful place
B.stress is our natural state
C.stress can cause headaches
D.people enjoy it
答案:A
28
解析:推理判断题。由第一段中的“People have stressful jobs;they feel stressed while studying for exams;even family life can be stressful.”可知,每个人都会经历压力是因为世界就是一个充满压力的地方,故选A项。
34.According to the information in the article,which of the following statements is true?
A.More people bath than shower.
B.More people listen to music to relax than take a bath.
C.Less people run to relax than take a bath.
D.Showering is a more popular way of relaxing than watching TV.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。由第三段中的“The study was based on interviews with 1,000 people in 30 countries and 56% said that listening to music was the best way to relax.Watching TV,at 53%,was the next most popular way of reducing stress followed by taking a shower or bath at 49%.”可知,认为听音乐可以放松的人是56%,认为洗澡可以放松的人是49%,所以比起洗澡更多的人用听音乐的方式来放松自己,故选B项。
35. of people don’t think that listening to music is the best way to relax.
A.44% B.49%
C.51% D.56%
答案:A
解析:推理判断题。由第三段中的“The study was based on interviews with 1,000 people in 30 countries and 56% said that listening to music was the best way to relax.”可知,认为听音乐是最好的放松方式的人是56%,所以认为听音乐不是最好的放松方式的人是100%-56%=44%,故选A项。
