How different can cultures be? Very! People from different cultures can eat different foods and live in different kinds of houses. They probably speak different languages and have different beliefs and customs. But guess what?     1     The similarities between cultures connect people and help them communicate.

We sometimes call these means (方式) of communication universal (全世界的) languages.     2     And some of them allow people of wildly different backgrounds to communicate and share emotions and feelings. For example, some people believe music is a universal language.     3     Experts have learned hat, across cultures, people can notice three common emotions in music: happiness, sadness, and fear.

Music may even be able to bridge the differences not only between people of different cultures but also between people and other creatures (生物). Music has been known to be a good influence on all kinds of animals.

So what other kinds of languages that everyone can understand might there be?     4     Along with music, dancing seems to be a common interest shared by people allover the world. Do you think you could see a dance from another culture and make some reasonable guesses about the ideas and emotions behind it? Of course, you could!

Another universal language that you might not have thought of is math!     5     The value of pi (圆周率) is around 3.14159, no matter where you are on Earth!

A．There is some scientific support for this idea.

B．There is no doubt that art is a universal language too.

C．If you think about it now, though, it just makes sense.

D．They can also be similar in ways you might not expect.

E．Some people believe dance is also a universal language.

F．People from different cultures don’t have different opinions on all things.

G．Strictly speaking, they’re not languages but ways of sharing thoughts and ideas.

5 . Scientists from Spain and the Netherlands did a study and discovered that road traffic noise near schools could cause problems for children.

In the study, Maria Foraster and her team from the Barcelona Institute for Global Health worked with 2,680 children aged 7-10 at 38 schools in Barcelona, Spain. They tested the children’s thinking and memory skills by giving them four computer tests over a year. There searchers looked at the noise both inside and outside the schools. They also estimated (估算) the noise levels at the children’s homes. Air pollution, people’s home locations, and other related factors (相关因素) were also considered.

The results showed that children in noisy schools had a hard time remembering and paying attention to things compared to children in quiet schools. When children were inside the classroom, changing traffic noise was an even bigger problem for them than just loud traffic noise. And no connection was found between noise at home and children’s learning abilities.

One limitation (限制) of the study was that the researchers did not study the noise levels from the past, which might have influenced the test scores. However, 98% of the children had been in the same school for at least a year, and the noise levels did not usually change very fast.

This study is important because many children worldwide are exposed to (遭受) traffic noise in schools. The researchers advised that more tests should be done in other places to see if the results are the same for different groups of children. If the answer is yes, this discovery might change the future rules about noise pollution near schools.

①Its results. ②Its researchers. ③How it was made. ④Where it was carried out.

A．①②③

B．①②④

D．①③④

2. According to the study, what kind of noise had a greater influence on children’s learning abilities?

3. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?

A．The study is of great importance.	B．The study has considered all factors.
C．The study has room for improvement.	D．The study fits most children in the world.

4. The writer wrote the passage to ________.

A．ask governments to make rules about noise pollution
