Last week I drove up to the family farm, half-an-hour drive from Shepparton.
Wayde showed me around the farm where he began his day at about 6:30 a.m. He said that the cows couldn't listen to loud music while he was milking.
Cows are very nervous animals, and many farmers have played slow music to keep their cows calm. It's reported that playing some music to cows leads to more milk production. So a lot of farmers keep a radio on in the barn (畜舍) to keep them happy.
Too many people think cows like country music. In fact, cows don't enjoy such things as country music. They prefer classical music to rock'n'roll(搖滾). Thanks to some researchers in Britain, farmers now know how many beats per minute cows prefer. The best speed of the music seems to be under 100 beats per minute. Cows listening to music like Beethoven’s Pastoral Symphony (《田園交響曲》) produced about 3.5% more milk a day than those listening to faster music. 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,判斷下列句子是否正確,對的寫A, 錯的寫B(tài)
( )46. Wayde must be a guide.
( )47. The underlined word “milking” means “擠奶” in Chinese.
( )48. Playing some proper music to cows helps them grow better and produce more milk.
( )49. Cows like country music better than classical music.
( )50. Beethoven’s Pastoral Symphony is the music under 100 beats per minute.
