Have you ever read music? If so, you probably noticed lots of new symbols and words. Maybe you saw the word presto at the beginning. Perhaps you read piano, forte, and fortissimo throughout The Son. You probably needed to ask your teacher what these words meant. Or maybe you didn't — if you knew how to read Italian!

Italian is sometimes called the language that sings.__________ If not, have you heard it out loud? Many think it sounds musical. However, the link between Italian and music is deeper than that. Today, the musical vocabulary is full of Italian words.

However, it wasn't always so. Thousands of years ago, people didn't write music. Instead, they passed songs down orally and taught each other to play them on instruments. Around 1000 AD, an Italian man named Guido d'Arezzo came up with the idea of written music. Over the next few centuries, many of the people writing music were Italian. They used Italian words to describe tempo, dynamics, moods and other aspects of music.

Of course, people in other parts of the world were writing music, too. In order to standardize written music, many of them used the Italian terms. Others wrote music in their own languages. For example, Beethoven sometimes used German words instead of Italian.

Still, Italian is the primary language used in music. You might already be familiar with some terms! One example is tempo – the speed of a piece of music. Markings in written music tell the player when the music should be adagio (slow), or allegro (fast). Some pieces are even presto (very fast). These are just a few of the Italian words commonly used in music.

(1)、The above passage is probably taken from ________of a magazine.
A、Music and Life B、Language and Art C、Human and Nature D、History and Society
(2)、Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A、Music spread from Germany to Italy. B、It's the easiest to write music in Italian. C、Guido d' Arezzo studied how to write music down D、Now just a few Italian words are used in written music.
(3)、Which of the following can be put in the blank ________in Para. 2?
A、Do you like music? B、Have you heard of Italian? C、Do you speak Italian? D、Have you written music?
(4)、The best title for the passage might be________.
A、How Music Develops B、The History of the Music Words C、How to Describe Music D、Connection Between Italian and Music

The other day, my husband called me to the balcony(阳台). "Come, dear, look at that car!" 

"What's up?" I asked, looking down at the square in front of our apartment building. A driver was trying to park between two cars. 

"That must be a woman," my husband said.

"How do you know?"

"I've watched the car move back and forth twenty times. Men can't be so bad at driving!"

"What if the driver is a man?" I asked.

"I bet you 50 yuan that the driver is a woman!"

We stood on the balcony and watched the car. It felt a little silly. Five minutes later, the car was finally parked perfectly, and a man slowly got out.

"Fifty yuan please," I said to my husband as he silently walked away.

My husband is not alone in looking down on female drivers. On weekends, my friend Lily likes traveling around the city by bus. But she always hesitates to get on a bus if the driver is a woman. "I can't trust a female driver," she told me one day. "Women are not born to drive, you know."

"Sorry, but I don't know," I said. I go to work by bus every day, and I never think female drivers are any worse. In fact, they are often more careful than men. Research also shows that female drivers are 8.8 times less likely to cause accidents than male drivers.

There are not many female bus drivers, though. And in the history of Formula One(一级方程式赛车), only 0.26 percent of drivers have been women. Without role models, many girls may think they are not meant to be good drivers. But the ability to drive has nothing to do with gender. Women can drive well, too. It's time to stop making jokes about female drivers.

You have been told to wash your hands many times a day to help stop the spread of the new corona-virus (新冠病毒). But what about the mobile phone that you're always using? Scientific studies have shown that the virus can live for two to three days on smooth materials like plastic and stainless steel. Experts suggest cleaning all "high touch" surfaces (表面) every day, including phones, keyboards and computers. However, few people know how to do the cleaning. Here are some things not to do when cleaning the phone. 

◆ Do not spray (喷) cleaners directly on the phone. 

◆ Do not put the phone into any cleaning liquids (液体). 

◆ Do not use tools that use forced air, which are often used to clean computer keyboards. 

◆ Do not clean the phone with hard materials, they could make small cuts on it. 

So, what is the right way? Below are some suggested ways to clean the phone. With any of these suggestions, be sure not to get the phone wet. 

◆ Start by turning off the phone. Make sure the phone is not connected to the electricity. 

◆ Use cleaning cloths with 70 percent alcohol (酒精) instead of the common ones. 

◆ Use paper cloths, or other soft cloths like those used to clean the eyeglasses. It's OK to cover the cloths lightly in cleaners. But do remember to clean the phone "gently". 

Cleaning the phone is one of the measures that are helpful to keep away from the new corona-virus. You should clean your own phone often and tell others the correct ways to do it.

 阅读下面短文,从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

①We know that with thousands of years of developing, people are becoming better at languages. But at the same time, language can also affect(影响) us in different aspects(方面).

②First, many studies on bilingual(双语) people show that when people change between two languages, they must think more actively than just using one, especially in the prefrontal cortex. This part at the very front of our br aın is important for handling(处理) information. And bilinguals learn new languages faster. Bilingualism might make the brain stronger. One researcher found that lifelong bilinguals often get brain illnesses later than those who know only one language. Another study shows that bilinguals get well sooner.

③Language can also affect how we see the world. Studies show that English speakers think of time from back to front. But Chinese speakers think of time in the opposite way. A study found that Greek speakers could find out different colours of blue faster and better than English speakers. People who speak languages like Spanish and French may connect words with men or women traits(性状).

④What's more, language might shape(塑造) our personality(个性). Bilinguals sometimes describe the same picture differently depending on the language they use. Studies also show that bilingual children are better at understanding others' ideas.

⑤In short, language seems to have a bigger affect on us. The more languages we learn, the cleverer we might be. There's still a lot to learn.
