hospitals are beginning to use music therapy. This is not surprising, as music affects the body and mind in
many powerful ways.
Research has shown that quick music can make a person feel more alert, while slow music can
produce a calm, deep thinking state. Also, research has found that music can change brainwave activity
levels. This can help the brain to change speeds more easily on its own as needed, which means that
music can bring lasting benefits to your state of mind, even after you"ve stopped listening.
Breathing and heart rates can also be influenced by music. This can mean slower breathing, slower
heart rate. This is why music and music therapy can help reduce the damaging effects of long-term stress,
greatly promoting (促进) not only relaxation, but health.
Music can also be used to bring about a more positive state of mind by helping to keep worries away. Music has also been found to bring many other benefits, such as lowering blood pressure and reducing the risk of strokes. It is no surprise that so many people are considering music as an important tool to help the body become or stay healthy.

Parents have to do much less for their children today than they used to do, and home has become
much less of a workshop. Clothes can be bought ready made, washing can go to the laundry, food can
be bought cooked, canned or preserved, bread is baked and delivered by the baker, milk arrives on
the doorstep, meats can be had at the restaurant, the work"s canteen, and the school dining-room.
It is unusual now for father to pursue his trade or other employment at home, and his children rarely,
if ever, see him at his place of work. Boys are therefore seldom trained to follow their father"s
occupation, and in many towns they have a fairly wide choice of employment and so do girls. The young
wage-earner often earns good money, and soon acquires a feeling of economic independence. In textile
areas it has long been customary for mothers to go out to work, but this practice has become so
widespread that the working mother is now a not unusual factor in a child"s home life, the number of
married women in employment having more than doubled in the last twenty-five years. With mother earning and his older children drawing substantial wages father is seldom the dominant figure that he still was at the beginning of the century. When mother works,economic advantages accrue, but children lose something of great value if mother"s employment prevents her from being home to greet them when they return from
schoo1.
B. parents had to make food and necessity themselves for their daily-life
C. many families produce goods at home for sale
D. both fathers and mothers in most families are workers
B. dwindle
C. double
D. increase
B. that fathers do not like to pursue employment at home any more
C. that there is a wide choice of employment for children
D. that children also like to have jobs outside
teacher. "I broke up a fight and was kicked between my legs," said another. Many people have heard
stories like this. But the situation is more worrying still and it involves parents.
Every child, regardless of the circumstances into which they are born, has the right to achieve their
potential, regardless of their parents’ wealth and class. And we recognize that, as a nation,it is a long
way to achieve this goal. But rights come with responsibilities and what worries people is that we are in
danger of neglecting the latter.
Far too many children are behaving badly at school, even to the point of being violent to staff. This is
terrible enough, but it is hard to be surprised since many children are just mirroring the behavior of their
parents. Too many are starting school unable to hold a knife and fork, unused to eating at a table, and
unable to use the lavatory properly.
We are in danger of becoming a nation of families living separate lives under one roof. The bedroom,
once a place to sleep, has become the living space for the young. Spending hours in front of computer
screens, on social networking sites or being immersed in computer games, children and young people
spend little time with their parents. Parents are unable to monitor just what their children are watching.
Schools cannot right the wrongs of society and teachers cannot become substitute parents. Both parties need to work together. Parents must be helped and given confidence to take back control. They are responsible for setting boundaries for their children"s behavior and sticking to those boundaries when the going gets tough. They are responsible for setting a good example to their children and for devoting that most precious of resources—time—so that children come to school ready and willing to learn.
B. The pressure of students" learning
C. The right to achieve students potential.
D. the responsibilities of the students.
B. unconcern
C. understanding
D. tolerance
B. parents care little about children"s life at home
C. children don"t live with their parents in the same room
D. at home children live a different life from that of parents
B. teachers have no responsibility for playing the role of parents
C. parents should spend time with children making them ready to learn
D. students are responsible for making themselves known in society

pleasant yellow color on the door. If they are close to confessing a crime (招供), the blue on the wall
might tip the balance.
Gwent Police have stopped using colors such as greys and browns of the 20th-century police cell
(牢房)and have used color psychology to decorate them.
Ystrad Mynach station, which recently opened at a cost of £5 million, has four cells with glass doors
for prisoners who suffer from claustrophobia (幽闭恐怖症). Designers have painted the frames yellow, which researchers say is a calming color. Other cells contain a royal blue line because psychologists
believe that the color is likely to encourage truthfulness.
The station has 31 cells, including 12 with a "live scan" system for drunken or disturbed prisoners,
which detects the rise and fall of their chest. An alarm alerts officers if a prisoner"s breathing stops and
carries on ringing until the door is opened.
Designers and psychologists have worked for years on color. Blue is said to suggest trust, efficiency,
duty, logic, coolness, thinking and calm. It also suggests coldness and unfriendliness. It is thought that
strong blues will stimulate clear thought and lighter, soft colors will calm the mind and aid concentration.
Yellow is linked with confidence, self-respect and friendliness. Get the color wrong and it could cause
fear, depression and anxiety, but the right yellow can lift spirits and self-respect.
Ingrid Collins, a psychologist who specializes in the effects of color, said that color was an "energy
force". She said, " Blue does enhance (improve) communication but I am not sure it would enhance
truthful communication."
Yellow, she said, affected the mind. Red, on the other hand, should never be considered because it
could increase aggression. Mrs. Collins praised the designers for using colors in the cells. Gwent is not
the first British force to experiment with color to calm down and persuade prisoners to co-operate. In
the 1990s Strathclyde Police used pink in cells based on research carried out by the US Navy.
B. help suspects to confess their crimes
C. make suspects cold and unfriendly in law court
D. enable suspects to change their attitudes to colors
B. Yellow.

D. Red.
B. Royal blue lines.
C. Glass doors.
D. Yellow frames.
B. a comparisons of different functions of colors
C. the use of colors in cells to affect criminals" psychology
D. scientific ways to help criminals reform themselves in prison
B. Favorable.
C. Passive.
D. Excited
