9.You have probably heard of the Mozart effect.It's the idea that if children or even babies listen to music composed by Mozart,they will become more intelligent.A quick Internet search reveals plenty of products to assist you in the task.Whatever your age there are CDs and books to help you taste the power of Mozart's music,but when it comes to scientific evidence that it can make you more clever,the picture is more mixed.
The phrase"the Mozart effect"was made up in 1991,but it was a study described two years later in the journal Nature that sparked(激發(fā))real media and public interest about the idea that listening to classical music somehow improves the brain.Ii is one of those ideas that sound reasonable.Mozart was undoubtedly a genius himself; his music is complex and there is a hope that if we listen to enough of it,we'll become more intelligent.
The idea took off,with thousands of parents playing Mozart to their children,and in 1998 Zell Miller,the Governor of the state of Georgia in the US,even asked for money to be set aside in the state budget so that every newborn baby could be sent a CD of classical music.It was not just babies and children who were exposed to Mozart's music on purpose,even an Italian farmer proudly explained that the cows were played Mozart three times a day to help them to produce better milk.
I'll leave the debate on the impact on milk yield to farmers,but what about the evidence that listening to Mozart makes people more intelligent?More research was carried out but an analysis of sixteen different studies confirmed that listening to music does lead to a temporary improvement in the ability to handle shapes mentally,but the benefits are short-lived and it doesn't make us more intelligent.

46.What can we learn from Paragraph 1?B
A.Mozart composed many musical pieces for children.
B.There is little scientific evidence to support Mozart effect.
C.There are few products on the Internet about Mozart's music.
D.Children listening to Mozart will be more intelligent.
47.Why did many people believe in the idea of Mozart Effect?B
A.Because a study described it in the journal Nature.
B.Because Mozart himself was a genius.
C.Because Mozart's music is enjoyable.
D.Because Mozart's music makes people relaxed.
48.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 suggests thatD.
A.people were strongly against the idea
B.the US government helped promote the idea
C.Mozart played an important part in people's life
D.the idea was accepted by many people
49.What is the author's attitude towards the Mozart effect?A
A.Doubtful.B.Supportive.C.Favorable.D.Positive.
50.What would be the best title for the passage?C
A.What is the Mozart effect?
B.What music is beneficial?
C.Listening to Mozart,necessary?
D.To be or not to be?

9.Dear Alcohol,
You've been around forever.I can remember all the pain you've caused for me.
Do you remember the night you almost took my father's life?I do.He loves you.Sometimes I think he loves you more than he loves me.He's addicted to you,to the way you promise to rid him of his problems only to cause more of them.You just sat back and laughed as his car went spinning through the street,crashing into two other cars.He wasn't the only one hurt by you that night.
Do you remember the night of my first high school party?You were there.My friends were intrigued by you.They treated you as if they were never going to see you again,drinking all of you that they could.I spent two hours that night helping my friends who had fallen completely."I'm so embarrassed,"they said a s I held their hair back so that they could vomit (嘔吐)."I'm sorry,"they said when I called taxies for them,walking them out and paying the driver in advance."This won't happen again,"they said as they were sent to the hospital to have their stomachs pumped.Two 15-year-old girls slept in hospital beds that night thanks to you.
Do you remember the night when you took advantage of my 17-year-old neighbor who had to drive to pick up his sister from her dance lessons?Do you know how we all felt when he hit another car and killed the two people in the other car?He died the next morning too.His sister walked home from her dance lesson,and passed police cars and a crowd of people gathering on the sidewalk just two blocks away from the dance studio.She didn't realize her brother was in the midst of it all.She never saw him again.And it's all your fault.
I wish you'd walk out of my life forever.I don't want anything to do with you.Look at all the pain you've caused.Sure,you've made people happy too from time to time.But the damage you've caused in the lives of millions is inexcusable.Stop luring (引誘) in the people I love.Stop hurting me,please.
Sincerely,
Anonymous
