6 . Have you ever thought about why malls, restaurants, and even theaters have music? Well, to understand this, you simply just look back at how you felt when you heard music in these places. Music is known to improve the mood of people. Often music helps us pay attention to what we are doing. Music helps patients feel good and helps them recover faster and better.

Depression (沮丧) is a state of mind that most of us experience at some point of time. There are some periods in our life when everything seems difficult. It seems that everything is getting worse and we have no control over our life. Studies have shown that music can be an important mood lifter in such situations. Music also plays a great role in making us feel less nervous or worried. Anxiety can often cause loss of sleep and other illnesses.

Music is often known as an international language. We may not know the language another person is speaking, but most of us respond to music in the same way. Music can often be the best way to connect with someone.

Music is one of the best ways to improve your moods, but this can depend largely on the kind of music you listen to. While happy music can certainly make you feel better, sad music can further lower your spirits. Listening to classical music can often make you feel a lot more powerful, while soft music can be the perfect way to relax at the end of a long way. If you want to use music to change the way how you are feeling, you need to understand the role of it, learn to recognize the kind of music that lifts your mood and helps you feel better. Once you realize the kind of music you can use, you can use it to change the way you feel. The right kind of music can be the perfect way to help us feel happier.

8 . Dancing with your grandma for 15 minutes a week promotes positive feelings and improves her state of mind, a study claims. Doctors from Israel are encouraging younger family members to have a regular visit to their grandmas and have a dance with their grandmas.

And they found a 15 minute boogie (布吉舞) once a week lifted the spirits of the elder family members and helped strengthen the familial bond. In fact, it is called Dance Movement Therapy (DMT). DMT across the generations, complete with eye contact, was found to promote positive feelings and improve spirits for the elderly.

The grandparents reported a bright state of mind, happy memories and uplifted spirits. Dancing has also previously been linked to improved muscle strength, balance and endurance (耐力). For the grandchildren in the study, the weekly boogie changed how they view aging and allowed them to come to accept the eventual death of their elderly relatives.

The study, published in the journal Frontiers in Psychology, assessed how dance affected general health of 16 dance movement therapists (治疗师) and their grandmothers. DMT was taken seriously due to the fact that it is easily accessible and does not cost more to practice. The researchers were eager to examine a low-cost method to treat issues commonly faced by an aging population— such as limited mobility and depression(抑郁症). Grandchildren were instructed to make eye contact and encourage playfulness and touch. They were also told to mirror their grandmothers’ movements and give them time and space to rest when needed.

The sessions were recorded and then analysed while diaries and interviews captured the opinions and feelings of the participants. As well as the benefits to the health of the senior, the experiment also changed the idea of the younger family members.

1. What should the young people do when dancing with their grandmas?

A．Follow the grandmas’ steps.

2. What can we infer from the third paragraph?

A．Dancing brings the young happy memories and uplifted spirits.

B．Dancing enables the senior to accept aging and death of their old relatives.

C．Dancing benefits both the senior and the young in the new study.

D．Dancing is linked to improved muscle strength and balance in the new study.

3. Which of the following is the best advantage of DMT?

A．Inexpensive.	B．Relaxing.
C．Attractive.	D．Pleasant.

4. What is the best title for the text?

A．What does DMT Mean?

B．Dancing: a Good Way to Stop Being Senior.

C．Why Don’t You Dance 15 Minutes Every Week?

D．Dancing with Grandparents is Good for Health and Family Ties.

9 . It's Alarming: What Wakes You Up Each Morning?

How do you wake up in the morning? If you set an alarm on your phone or clock that sounds like this: beep beep beep?     1     Sleep inertia is another term for grogginess(昏睡), which means a person has a heavy feeling when waking up, and has trouble getting moving again after sleeping,

    2     A recent study says yes. The answer is music. Researchers say alarms that have a melody—like the beginning of this song—can help people feel fresher in the morning.

The study, carried out by researchers in Australia, involved 50 people. The study subjects answered questions about the alarm sound they like to wake up to, how they feel about that sound and how they feel when they wake up.     3     However, it is early days and more work is needed to fully know the answer.

So, what makes musical alarms better for waking up? The researchers think the music may be more successful in reducing grogginess because it has several tones, compared to the single tone of a "beeping" alarm.     4     And is there a kind of music that is best to wake up to? There may be     5     However, no matter how you wake up, experts say, the amount of sleep you get also matters a lot.

A．Can musical alarms work wonders？

B．So, is there a better way to do the trick？

C．This can help you fall asleep more quickly and easily.

D．Alarm sounds that are tune full and easy to hum or sing along with may be good choices.

E．The researchers found that people who wake up to musical alarms reported feeling more awake and alert.

F．The changes over time between the music tones may help increase a person's attention when waking from sleep.

G．That hard, unpleasant sound may be making it harder to shake off the sleepy feeling in the morning known as grogginess.
