(4)C

【解析】

(1)这是一篇日常生活类阅读，文章讲述的是世界上有一群天生不喜欢听音乐的人，被称之为amusic（失音症的；失歌症的），这些人听力上没有任何问题，只是不喜欢听音乐，也无法欣赏音乐。很多人在之前都因此而苦恼，现在有了科学的解释，他们可以摆脱那种尴尬、不自在的处境了。

细节理解题。根据第一段Forsomepeople,musicisnofunatall.About4%ofthepopulationiswhatscientistscall"amusic".Peoplewhoareamusicarebornwithouttheabilitytoenjoymusicalnotes.对一些人来说，音乐根本就没有乐趣。大约4%的人被科学家称为“amusic（失音症的；失歌症的）”，失音症的人天生就没有欣赏音乐的能力。

(2)细节理解题。根据第二段Lifecanbehardforamusics.Infact,mostpeoplecannotunderstandwhatitfeelsliketobeamusic生活对于失音症的人来说可能很困难。事实上，大多数人都不明白失音症的人是什么感觉。可知，失音症的人生活很难，主要是因为人们不理解失音症的人。

(3)细节理解题。根据第三段Scientistssaythatthebrainsofamusicsaredifferentforthoseofpeoplewhocanenjoymusic科学家说，对于那些能欣赏音乐的人来说，失音症的人的大脑是不同的。可知，失音症的人和大多数人不同之处是他们的大脑。
