A piece of music can produce a response in the heart and mind. Like feeling an electrical current or receiving a personal radio signal, music has a spiritual effect on a person. Different kinds of music influence people in different ways.I have listened to music all my life. When I was twelve years old, the Beatles came to America and my whole world opened up. Maybe young people today cannot understand the influence of the Beatles when they exploded across America. Their influence changed the way we dressed, looked, acted and spoke. even our culture. The Beatles arrived in America from the UK just under three months after the assassination(暗殺) of President John Kennedy, which had put America into a great depression. And the freshness and lively spirit of the Beatles was exactly what the country needed to refresh itself.Music links the heart of the hearer with that of the composer. This means that it mixes the spirit of the composer with your spirit when you listen to it. And the music can take your spirit out of your body and transport you into another world. Music has a great way of touching people. Music can make you laugh, cry or shout. Its also a great source of inspiration.Try this one day and notice what happens: make yourself a cup of tea, sit on your sofa and play one of your favorite songs. Close your eyes, and soon youll find yourself creating vivid mental imagesmatching the music that you are listening to.1Music has magical power because it _.A. is a kind of languageB. can be played much louder than wordsC. receives a personal radio signalD. can influence a persons spirit2One can learn from the second paragraph that the Beatles _A. were the biggest band in American historyB. are not accepted by modern American peopleC. appeared at a special time in American politicsD. represented the roots of American culture3One will do all of the following while listening to music EXCEPT _A. feeling very refreshedB. having emotional changesC. painting some vivid picturesD. feeling inspired by the composer 4It can be inferred from the passage that the author _A. has been influenced by the BeatlesB. enjoys drinking tea in his spare timeC. admires President John Kennedy very muchD. likes to match his own feeling with that of the composerBWhen you are travelling in Thailand, which means of transport is the best choice?You can rent a variety of motorbikes or bikes in Thailand. It seems to be very popular in most of the beaches and islands along the places in the north. The most popular bikes are the little 125 cc Honda Dream which you can get for about 150 baht (銖) a day or as little as 3，000 baht per month, making it the cheapest way to tour Thailand for the people from other countries.Sometimes you will have to go somewhere by taxi. When you are in cities in Thailand, especially in Bangkok, always remember to get a taxi that is traveling on the roads. Some drivers outside hotels refuse to use the meter(計(jì)程表). They will ask a price which is several times the price when they use the meter!The quality of the roads in Thailand is generally pretty good, so renting cars is another way to get around. The big car rental companies may offer you slightly older cars at a very reasonable(合理的) price. It is a little surprising considering that the cost of buying a car in Thailand is more than that in the West. Petrol is also reasonably priced in Thailand, more expensive than American prices, but much cheaper than what is paid in Europe. In the past, Bangkok could be a difficult place to drive insigns were generally in Thai only, making it a hard job to find exactly where you were by looking around. But now, the situation is improved. In a lot of places, even the farthest corners of the country, street signs are in both Thai and English.5To a foreigner, the most economical way to get around Thailand is renting a_A. motorbike B. car C. taxi D. bike6What is the writers advice about taking a taxi in Thailand?A.

She can remember all the events she has experienced in her life. The events are so vivid, as if they happened just moments ago. But her vivid memories often become a reality. Rebecca said, “When I relive memories, the emotions come back. So if its something that happened when I was younger, my emotions are about what I felt then. I also re-experience pain. For example, I remember falling over and hurting my left knee when I was three. When talking about it now, Im getting pain in my left knee.”However, there are times when Rebeccas memories prove to be too overwhelming, and she has learnt relaxation and mindfulness(聚神) techniques to solve. “At school, it is a hindrance. Im not very quick at processing things, so there is always so much going through my mind. At night, I have to sleep with the radio on and a soft light. If its too dark or quiet, my mind just recalls all these memories and I cant sleep,” Rebecca said.In addition, Rebecca has no control over whether the memories she recalls will be positive or negative recalling painful experiences with such vividness that she has suffered from post-traumatic (創(chuàng)傷后的) stress disorder. Rebecca said, “Recently, I went back to my old school for my sisters high school graduation. Being in that building again brought all those memories flooding back. I burst into tears and had to leave.”Rebecca and her mother Mrs. Barnes got in touch with the University of California in 2011. It was there that Rebecca knew she had Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory (HSAM). Its reported that Rebecca is one of just 80 people worldwide, who have HASM. “Finding out about HASM has been such a positive experience. Now, Rebecca has been more positive and able to do things independently, which has been excellent,” Mrs. Barnes said.8Whats wrong with Rebecca?A. She hardly sleeps well at night.B.

We stopped at Snoqualmie summit for a quick rest. About a mile from there, we heard a loud sound and thought we might hit a rock. However, we were wrong.As we were turning into the rest area, we heard a loud banging sound again, and all I could do was get this car pulled over and stopped. Once we got stopped, and tire pulled off, we found that the bolt （螺栓），which is necessary for the brake to work, had been missing. Had I hit the brake with any more speed, I am sure the car would have turned over and we could have all been killed.The first thing we needed to do was get a new bolt, so my husband went to get a cup of coffee and to ask whether there would be an auto parts store. They told him where, and then he came back to find we had no way to get there. That was when the Angel showed her wings! One of the coffee volunteers was getting off her shift and offered to take him to the auto parts store. So this angel took him to Ellensburg to get the part, only to find out that it was the wrong part. So she came back to see if everything fit and sure enough, she offered to take him to the hardware store in town to see if they could find this bolt!She spent well over 4 hours with us, driving us around to help fix our car and protect us until we were safe. She even followed us for a short time on the freeway until she knew we were well on our way safely. We were blessed that day, and when I told her she was an angel she just said we would do the same thing, and she was right, I would and I will again!12What actually happened when the writer heard the loud sound at the first time?A.

Instead, we desire to experience satisfaction with the life weve been given. 16_ To live a life without regret in the future, you should try to stay away from the following four common unhealthy habits.17 It is good to have a destination to go to but it is the journey that matters in the end. Too often, we live our lives from destination to destination. But life is not lived merely in these destinations. In fact, it is far more often lived in the pathways between them. We should appreciate the joy in the journey rather than always hurry to the next destination.Be defined by your negative circumstances. Each morning we are born again. What we do today is what matters most. This is an important truth and an important promise. Our lives should not be defined by the negative circumstances that happened in our past. They may have affected our lives, but they do not write the final chapter. 18 Focus entirely on yourself. The size of our universe becomes smaller considerably when we place ourselves at the center. 19 On the contrary, those who see their life as an opportunity to bring joy to others quickly find it themselves.20 Every excess (過量) adds burden to our lives. And yet we continue to pursue and accumulate more than we needmore houses, more cars, more clothes, and more dishes. Owning less means less cleaning, less burden, less anxiety, and less stress each day. It provides the space and opportunity to pursue the things in life that bring lasting satisfaction to our lives.A. Blame everybody else.B. Carry more than you need.C. It is we ourselves who hold the pen.D. Miss the joy of the journey for the destination.E. Only a fool believes the wide road is necessarily the right road.F. The fact is that too many people experience regret at the lives they chose to live.G. And the people who are most focused on themselves are the least satisfied in life.二完形填空閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)A lady wanted a birthday gift from her husband.
