22、Peter wondered why he didn't have many friends. The reason was that he was always taking, never giving.

One day Peter told Bill, “ I’d like to give a party on Saturday, I'd like you to come and bring Martha, too.” “Thanks, Peter. We'd be happy to come. ” “ Perhaps you'd like to bring your violin. You and Martha sing well together. I'm sure everyone will want you to sing for us. ” That was how Peter began to plan his party. Next he asked another friend, Betty, to bring a cake. “ You make the best cake in the world, Betty, and I like to eat your cake better than have one from the bakery.” Peter invited a few other friends to come to his party. He didn't forget to ask something from each one of them. He even asked Jim and Mary Jackson to let him give the party at their house! They agreed.

23、Music helps us exercise—but why does it have this effect (影响)? Experts say there are two main reasons. The first is simple: Music distracts us. When we listen to a song we like, our brain pays attention to the music. For example, after we exercise for 20 minutes, our body might be tired. But we may not feel this immediately because we are listening to music. So we exercise a little longer.

. When we hear dance music, for example, we naturally start to move to the beat. An upbeat song also puts us in a good mood, so we feel happier. This gives us energy and helps us exercise longer. Music with a quick and steady beat is good for exercising. But the music shouldn’t be too fast, says sports psychologist Dr. Costa Karageorghis. Generally, songs in the range (范围) of 120-140 beats per minute (BPM) are the best.

A new study by cognitive scientist Tom Fritz suggests this is only part of the explanation, however. In an experiment, Fritz put 61 people in small groups. They all then exercised twice. One time, each group worked out while listening to music for six minutes. Another time, they exercised for six minutes on special Jymmin machines. The name Jymmin is a combination of “jammin” and “gym”. Using these machines, each group made music as they moved. At the end, 53 of the 61 people said the same thing: They felt less tired when they exercised on the Jymmin machines. When we exercise and make music-especially with other people working out seems to be easier.

How does Fritz explain this? Maybe people did better on the Jymmin machines because they had more control, he says. People created the beat. They could make it go faster or slower. Also, the activity was social. Each group was making music together and having fun. Fritz believes that Jymmin exercise may have other advantages (优势), too. He wants to find out if it can help with more serious conditions. For example, it may even be a good way to treat depression (抑郁).

【1】In Paragraph 1, the underlined word “distract” means to ________.

A．bring our attention back

B．make us stronger

C．take our attention away

D．make us tired

【2】Which of the following sentences can be put in the blank (空白处) in Paragraph 2?

A．Music also motivates (激励) us

B．Any kind of music helps

C．The faster music, the better

D．Sports psychologists disagree

【3】What is a Jymmin machine?

A．A tool for listening to music while dancing.

B．A machine for watching music videos while exercising.

C．A group to make music and have fun while exercising.

D．An exercise machine for creating music while working out.

【4】What is the main idea of this passage?

A．Advantages of music while working out.

B．A music playlist for workout songs.

C．Give instructions on using Jymmin machines.

D．Reasons why music helps people exercise longer.

24、短文填空

It’s known that China is a country with the largest population （人口）in the world. To deal with the population problem, our g【1】 decided to have one-child policy （政策）. After the policy was out for some time, while it did help to make the population grow s【2】, problems like aging also become clear. So all Chinese families were told that they could have two children. As the one-child policy came to an end, many Chinese children may have a brother or sister in the f【3】.

But what would your life be l【4】 growing up with a brother or a sister? H【5】 a brother or sister can keep you away from some bad feelings, such as loneliness and fear. Your brother or sister can give you something that parents can’t give you. You may not feel lonely at home any more b【6】 there will be someone playing with you and s【7】 secrets with you. Of course, sometimes you may argue （争论）or even f【8】 with him or her, but you will get on well with each other soon.

Although now our country encourages people to have more children, most y【9】 people don’t want more children because of the pressure （压力）from work and family. Maybe it takes a long time for people to a【10】 the new policy.
