【推荐1】Does the music we listen to affect us in one way or another? The following questions and answers may give us some ideas.
CAN MUSIC HELP US SLEEP?
Obviously, yes! In a study, music was shown to cure insomnia (the condition of being unable to sleep). Over 80% of the people taking part in the study became better sleepers after three weeks of listening to classical music at bedtime. In another study, half of the people over the age of 60 who had difficulty falling asleep reported that they became good sleepers after a few weeks. So, if you’re battling to fall asleep, make yourself a 45-minute playlist of slow, calming music.
CAN IT TAKE PAIN AWAY?
Well, maybe not totally, but music has been shown to help us feel better. One experiment asked people to hold their hands in freezing cold water. The people who were listening to music could handle the pain for longer, especially if they got to choose the music themselves. The same was found at dentists’ rooms-patients felt less pain if they got to choose the music they listened to.
CAN MUSIC MAKE US ACT DIFFERENTLY?
For sure! Think about the music you hear when you’re at the shops or at a restaurant. Studies show that playing slow music at a restaurant makes you eat slower. The pace of music in a shopping center determines (decides on) how fast people walk-you take more time to browse (look at things in a shop) if the music is calmer. Some studies have even shown that music can influence what you buy. One test done by psychologists in England in 1999 changed the background music near displays of German and French wines. When they played German music, the German wine sold twice as much. When French music was used, the French wine sold five times better!

【推荐2】When watching sports events, we often notice athletes wearing earphones on while preparing in the locker room or entering the stadium. They keep their eyes shut, and gently nod along the beats. It seems the music is giving them power and cheering them up for the competition. We sometimes do the same. You might have a list of favorite songs for your morning exercises. But is there any science behind such practices?
According to a recent research, it turns out there is. Music actually does make us feel powerful, but not all songs have the same effect.
The research was led by Dennis Hsu of the Kellogg School of Management at Northwester University in the US. His team had people listen to 31 songs of different types. The listeners felt powerful after listening to some songs, such as Queen’s We Will Rock You and 2 Unlimited’s Get Ready for This.
Researchers also found that high-power music made people want to take control in social events and come first in competition. That matters a lot in sports. “It’s commonly said that sports are 90 percent mental and only 10 percent physical,” The Huffington Post reported.
Great athletes know this idea well. NBA player Kobe Bryant, for example, often puts on big headphones and even falls into deep thought to boost(提升) his game and reduce his anxiety.
As for the reason for music’s magical power, Hsu’s team came up with one possible explanation: when people hear music that expresses a sense of power, they mimic(模拟) these feelings in their mind.
When choosing music, we also need to look at the type of music, according to researchers.
In previous research by the Music in Exercise and Sports Group at Brunei University in London, they found that pop was perfect for slower, more repetitive-type tasks. If you’re warming up or cooling down after exercises, pop songs are the correct choice.
1. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?A.To introduce favorite songs for morning exercises. |

C.To give an example of athletes’ daily life. |
D.To explain how to choose music. |

B.powerful music can make people produce similar feelings in their mind |
C.the result of a game is mainly affected by the physical condition of the players |
D.most athletes still don’t know the effects of high-power music on their performance |
A.Pop music is a reasonable choice for high-intensity workouts. |
B.Rock music helps people keep their rhythms when exercising. |
C.People are advised to listen to pop music before and after exercise. |
D.People should dance to music while doing strength and weight training. |
