Whether it is Mozart or Miley，your choice of music could determine whether you will perform well at your work.
A new study suggests that listening to music in the office improves the speed and accuracy of tasks such as data entry，proofreading and problemsolving.
In an officebased experiment,88 per cent of participants were found to produce their most accurate work when listening to music.
The study also found that 81 per cent completed their fastest work when music was
played.
And it matters what type of music you listen to. For instance，if you're doing your tax returns，then classical music is the most effective as it improves maths skills.
Listening to Jessie J or Justin Bieber could also improve your speed，with 58 per cent of participants completing data entry tasks faster while listening to pop songs.
During proofreading，dance music，such as David Guetta's，had the biggest positive impact on participants increasing their speed by 20 per cent compared to tests undertaken with no music at all.
Dance music also had a positive effect on spellchecking with a 75 per cent pass rate compared to 68 per cent when no music was played at all.
The research，undertaken by Brightonbased Mindlab International，suggests that silent offices may be the least productive.
“The music experiment showed that when listening to music，nine out of ten people performed better，”said Dr.David Lewis，chairman of Mindlab International.
“Proper music enables people to quickly process and keep information，regulate their behavior，make good choices，solve problems，plan and adjust to changing mental demands，”a senior investigator of Mindlab International explained.
“While many schools are cutting music programs and spending more and more time on test preparations，our findings suggest that musical training courses may actually help to set up children for a better academic future，”added Dr.David Lewis.
21．What does the passage mainly talk about.
A．The positive relationship between music and work efficiency.
B．The speed and accuracy of problemsolving tasks.
C．The comparison of different kinds of music.
D．The experiment on productivity of office staff.
22．According to the passage，we can conclude that .
A．different kinds of music lead to the same effect
B．silent offices can make people perform better
C．listening to proper music can improve efficiency in offices
D．more tests prepare children for a better academic future
23．What is the author's attitude towards school music programs?
A．Respectful. B．Doubtful.
C．Tolerant. D．Supportive.

Christmas in the United States is traditionally a time of giftgiving and family gatherings.But small towns across the country have their own traditions.
Middleburg，a small town in the state of Virginia，is known for its horses. For more than 50 years，Middleburg has organized a yearly Christmas parade(游行)．Men and women ride horses through the woods and fields. They follow hunting dogs as they search for a wild fox. But first，these hunters ride in the yearly parade，wearing their bright red hunting clothes and hats.
John Hale，a citizen of Middleburg says many city people visit his town.“We have a lot of people from an urban area that come to visit，but it incorporates a lot of the old traditions.”The nighttime hayride is one such tradition. Small groups gather under the moonlight on an open wagon filled with hay. The passengers sing as farm horses pull the wagon slowly across the fields.
There are some newer traditions，too. Trey Matheu works at the nearby Salamander Resort. He says a visit to Middleburg is a chance to slow down for a day. He says Middleburg can be a calming，peaceful place without tension.
“Middleburg is an opportunity to take a step back，to take a deep breath，and understand that even though life is moving on at a very fast pace，there's really an opportunity where you're allowed to step off for a little bit.”
Parade organizers say more than 13,000 people attend even in below freezing weather. But if you ask，you will hear many different reasons why people come to watch the parade：
“I come here because I'm from a small town. I like how everybody comes together.”
“I live right down that street，right there. And that's my dog.”
Middleburg looks its best at Christmastime. That may be why so many people return each year.
24．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

B．feed farm horses with hay
C．hunt for dogs in the woods
D．ride in the yearly parade
26．According to Trey Matheu，why do people visit Middleburg?
A．To relax themselves.
B．To enjoy the fresh air.
C．To escape competition.
D．To challenge themselves.
27．What do we know about the small town Middleburg?
A．It makes a large profit from tourism.
B．It attracts many people each year.
C．It is a good place for family gatherings.
D．It doesn't respect Christmas traditions.

There is a very instructive incident involving the life of Alexander the Great，King of Greek.Alexander，after conquering many kingdoms，was returning home. On the way，he fell ill and it took him to his death bed. With death staring him in his face，Alexander realized his conquests，his great army，his sharp sword and all his wealth were of no consequence.So，he lay helplessly waiting to breathe his last. He called his generals and said，“I will depart from this world soon，and I have three wishes. Please carry them out without fail.”
“My first desire is that，”said Alexander，“my physicians alone must carry my coffin.”After a pause，he continued，“Secondly，I desire that when my coffin is being carried to the grave，the path leading to the graveyard be strewn(撒满)with gold，silver and precious stones which I have collected.”The King continued，“My third and last
wish is that both my hands should be kept hanging out of my coffin.”Alexander's favorite general kissed his hand and pressed them to his heart.“Oh King，we assure you that your wishes will all be fulfilled. But tell us why do you make such strange wishes？”
Alexander took a deep breath and said，“I would like the world to know of the three lessons I have just learnt. I want my physicians to carry my coffin because people should realize that no doctor can really cure any bodies. They are powerless and cannot save a person from the clutches of death. So let people not take life for granted.
“The second wish of strewing gold，silver and other riches on the way to the graveyard is to tell people that not even a bit of gold will come with me. I spent all my life earning riches but cannot take anything with me. Let people realize that it is just a waste of time to chase wealth.”
“And about my third wish of having my hands hanging out of the coffin，I wish people to know that I came emptyhanded into this world and emptyhanded out of this world.”With these words，the King closed his eyes. Soon he let death conquer him and breathed his last.
28．The first paragraph suggests that Alexander .
A．was conquering many kingdoms
B．realized that what he got in his life was nothing to him at all
C．wanted to leave as he came emptyhanded
D．regarded his conquests，his great army，his sharp sword and all his wealth as the most important things
29．The underlined word “clutches”in Paragraph 3 means “ ”．
A．sentence B．attention
C．control D．shadow
30．The author intends to .
A．tell us the story of Alexander
B．introduce readers to the instructive lessons of
Alexander
C．stress the power of Alexander the Great
D．persuade people to realize what Alexander said
31．What would be the best title for the passage?

D．The Life of Alexander

The new highspeed railway line between Urumqi，capital of the Xinjiang Uygur Selfgoverning Region，and Lanzhou，capital of Gansu Province，has cut train travel time by half to less than 12 hours.
The dramatic improvement will benefit many families planning reunions for Spring Festival.
“For the first time，I feel home is not that far away after all，”said Liang Shaofu as he boarded a highspeed train in Urumqi with six members of his family.
The 35yearold left Lanzhou to set up a dry fruit business in Xinjiang eight years ago，and he has now settled in Urumqi.
The 1,776km line，which passes through Qinghai Province and is the country's first highspeed railway to be built in a highaltitude region，came into service on Dec.26.
“We normally drive home for Spring Festival to avoid the difficulties of buying seven train tickets for the whole family during the peak season，”Liang said.“Driving can be very tiring and dangerous sometimes，so one year we even decided not to go back to Lanzhou simply to avoid the trip.”
More than 600,000 passengers traveled on the line during its first month，and the Urumqi Railway Bureau said the introduction of highspeed services will ease transport pressure during the Spring Festival peak season.
The existing usual railway line could no longer support Xinjiang's development.All passenger trains will gradually shift to the new link，leaving the old one to be used for goods.As a result，Xinjiang's annual goods ability could reach 200 million metric tons from the current 70 million.
The line passes through areas that experience high winds，and it also crosses parts of the deserted QinghaiTibet Plateau and the bonedry sands of the Gobi Desert.
The project could help China to promote its highspeed railway technology abroad，said Ma Xizhang，director of the LanzhouXinjiang railway project's management department in Xinjiang.
32．How long did it take to go from Urumqi to Lanzhou by the usual train before?
A．About 12 hours. B．About 6 hours.
C．About 18 hours. D．About 24 hours.
33．What's the main advantage of the new highspeed railway?
A．It takes more time to go from Urumqi to Lanzhou.
B．It will be more convenient for people all over the country to go to Xinjiang.
C．All the people in Lanzhou can return home on festivals.
D．It helps to improve Xinjiang's development.
34．From the passage we can learn .
A．Xinjiang's annual goods ability can increase nearly four times
B．the new railway technology may help more railway lines to be built abroad
C．the highspeed railway lines can't be built across the bonedry sands
D．the old railway lines can only carry goods now
35．Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．The new highspeed railway line is good for all people to go home.
B．The new highspeed railway line benefits businessmen to carry goods.
C．Taking the new train is safer than driving home from Urumqi to Lanzhou.
D．Businessmen seldom went home for Spring Festival before.

(2016·豫东、豫北十所名校联考)Whatever burdens you're carrying now，let them down for a moment if you can. 36
Do your most difficult task first in the morning. Pushing a challenging task back is like holding a glass of water in an outstretched arm. At first nothing happens，but if you do it for hours or even days，you will soon feel the stress. Get the most annoying task done first and you'll enjoy the peace of mind for the rest of the day.
Let go of things you can't control. You make plans to go outside with friends. But at the last minute，it starts raining. Some people become upset and start complaining. You'd better not. The rain won't stop just because of your complaint. 37 What I do in such situation is going for a quick walk in the park or just lie in bed reading a good book，listening to the rain beating on my window.
38 Just make a list of three simple things about any part of your life that you love. This is a great technique if you're ever bored while stuck in traffic，or waiting in the grocery store checkout lane. You can immediately transform boredom into happiness and peace of mind!
Relax your body. Just walk to a window，look outside，and then take a single deep breath，focusing only on that breath and nothing else in the whole world. 39
Talk to friends about your stress. Talking to friends about your worries can often be beneficial. 40 The simple act of speaking about anxieties can make them seem more manageable.
A．With physical relaxation，you can also increase your peace of mind.
B．Instead，make the best of the situation.
C．Those who care about you can offer support.
D．Avoid situations that cause you to feel anxious.
E．Here are some simple ways to increase your peace of mind.
F．Don't worry about what others are thinking of you.
G．List three things you love.
