Unit 5Music.阅读理解AWhen asked about her childhood in the documentary Alive Inside,a 90-year-old woman with dementia (痴呆) replies,“Ive forgotten so much.” Filmmaker Michael Rossato-Bennett then plays music from her past for her.“Thats Louis Armstrong,”she says.“Hes singing When the Saints Go Marching In and it takes me back to my school days.” She then recalls exact details from her life.Why does it happen?Music tends to accompany events that arouse emotions or otherwise make strong impressions on ussuch as weddings and graduations.These kinds of experiences form strong memories,and the music and memories likely become intertwined (紧密相联) in our neural(神经的) networks,according to Julene Johnson,a professor at the University of California.Movements,such as dancing,also often pair with our experience of music,which can help form memories.Even many years later,hearing the music can bring back memories of these long-past events.As Alive Inside shows,music has this power even for many people with dementia.Researchers note that the brain areas that process and remember music are typically less damaged by dementia than other areas,and they think it may explain the phenomenon.They also pay attention to elderly people with dementia,especially those in nursing homes.“Its possible those long-term memories are still there,” Johnson says,“but people just have a harder time accessing them because theyre in a strange place and therere not a lot of circumstances in which someone could pull out those memories.”Johnson also notes that music is not universally useful for all people with dementia since there are some people with dementia whose brain area that recognizes music is damaged.Despite musics apparent benefits,few studies have explored its influence on memory recall in people with dementia.“Its really an untapped area,” Johnson says.Petr Janata is one researcher investigating the topic of music and memory.He says that scientists still do not have the answers for why and how music reawakens memories in people with dementia,but this phenomenon is real and its just a matter of time before its fully borne out by scientific research.1.What helps the old woman in Alive Inside recall her childhood?A.A film she has watched before. B.A song she has listened to before.C.The voice of her childhood friend.D.The description of her school days.2.What benefit of music is discussed in Paragraph 2?A.It helps make lasting memories.B.It helps cure patients of dementia.C.It helps arouse emotions in special events.D.It helps remember dance movements easily.3.According to Johnson,what should we do for elderly people with dementia?A.Send them to nursing homes for good care.B.Provide familiar environments for them.C.Play lots of classical music to them.D.Talk to them about their past.4.What do we know about the study into music and memory recall in people with dementia?A.It is criticized by Petr Janata. B.It is a ground-breaking study.C.It is supported by solid evidence.D.It applies to all people with dementia.语篇解读:本文是说明文。研究表明音乐对唤醒痴呆病人的记忆十分有用。答案及剖析:1.B细节理解题。根据第一段中的plays music from her past for her.“Thats Louis Armstrong,” she says .She then recalls exact details from her life.可知,这位老人的记忆是被她过去听过的一首歌唤醒的。2.A细节理解题。根据第二段中的form strong memories及.help form memories.Even many years later,hearing the music can bring back memories of these long-past events.可知,本段主要讨论了音乐可以帮助人们形成深刻的记忆,多年后都可能被唤醒。3.B推理判断题。根据第四段中的theyre in a strange place and therere not a lot of circumstances in which someone could pull out those memories可知,如果患有痴呆症的老人住在养老院的话,由于处在不熟悉的环境中,他们很难恢复记忆,因此我们应该给这些老人提供熟悉的环境,以便唤醒他们失去的记忆。4.B细节理解题。根据最后一段中的few studies have explored its influence on memory recall in people with dementia.“Its really an untapped area,”可知,关于音乐唤醒痴呆病人记忆功效的研究是项开创性的研究。B(21世纪报高三第27期)Does your school have any problems with discipline?What happens when students step out of line?Here are some examples of bad behaviour:Playing truant (missing school without permission from parents).Stealing,smoking,hitting,swearing(说脏话),running,kissing.Cheating in exams.Calling a teacher or another pupil bad names.Not doing homework.Not listening or not paying attention in lessons.Wearing unsuitable clothes.Here are some of the ways that UK school children can be punished:Exclusion:a pupil is asked to leave the school and not come back.The pupil has to find a new school or a different method of education.Suspension:a pupil cannot enter the building or attend lessons until the school has a meeting about their situation.Suspension can last from one to 45 days.The pupil is usually given work to do at home with a special teacher.Detention:a pupil is asked to stay after school and work for 30-60 minutes before they can leave.Lines:a pupil has to write a sentence many times (eg.100 or more) on a sheet of paper,eg.“I must not shout in class”.Freya MacDonald,a 15-year-old pupil from Scotland,made the news when she refused to accept her schools punishment.Her family says that she was given 11 detentions for trivial things such as having fizzy drinks(气泡饮料) in class and coming into school through a fire door.Freya says that repeated detentions disrupted her right to an education under Scottish law and made it difficult for her to learn.She refused to return until the school respected her civil rights.She wants the headmaster and her teachers to sign a letter to promise this.Hundreds of schools in Scotland were told not to use detention as a punishment because of her legal action.Many UK schools now give parents a home/school contract,explaining their discipline and rules.Parents must sign this document to agree that they accept the schools rules and discipline and that they are responsible for their childs behaviour.5.What is the article mainly about?A.How UK schools have reformed their rules.B.How UK schools discipline and punish students.C.Common types of bad behavior in UK schools.D.Why Freya MacDonald protested against detention.6.If a student is suspended from a UK school,it means that he or she .A.will be asked to drop out of the schoolB.will be permitted to study at home for up to 60 daysC.will have to be absent from school for a certain amount of timeD.will be given the most serious punishment at school7.What did Freya do after the school gave her repeated detentions?A.She didnt admit that she had done anything wrong.B.She used the law to argue for her right to an education.C.She asked her parents to talk her teachers into cancelling the punishment.D.She forced her teachers to sign a letter agreeing to respect her civil rights.8.According to the article,the home/school contract many UK schools give parents is used to .A.push parents to show more care to their childrenB.help parents learn more about their childrens performance at schoolC.remind parents that its their duty to teach their children school rulesD.make parents show their recognition of the school rules语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了在英国的学校学生违反纪律所受的惩罚。答案及剖析:5.B主旨大意题。根据文章中的黑体部分可知,本文主要讲了英国学校是如何约束和惩罚学生的。6.C细节理解题。文中Suspension中的Suspension can last from one to 45 days.以及a pupil cannot enter the building or attend lessons可知,此题应选C。7.B细节理解题。根据倒数第二段尤其是第一句可知,她用法律手段捍卫自己受教育的 权利。8.D细节理解题。根据最后一段“Parents must sign this document to agree that they accept the schools rules”可知,此题应选D。.语法填空(2018安徽安庆高三二模)China has developed a unique festival food culture throughout the years.Eating dumplings is a common folk custom for many Chinese on the day of winter solstice(冬至),
