Unit 5 Music
课时作业
Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2019·河北武邑中学模拟C)Most people know that listening to music when they are feeling down or depressed can encourage their spirits.
However studies have also shown that music，especially certain tones can reduce stress.Music can change brainwave patterns，deepen breathing，and bring on a totally stress－free and more open mindset(心态)．Using music to relax when considering a particular problem may not only raise your mood，but also could help you reach that “a－ha”moment and find a solution.
Music has also been shown not only to make you feel good，but also，to be a great motivator.For example，during exercise，listening to music can keep you going，or get you to exercise more by helping you to ignore negative feelings of tiredness and focus on the pleasurable feelings you get from being absorbed in the music. Music is mainly used to record emotion.When we listen to a piece of music we share the artist's feelings on a visceral(本来的)level.That can be sad，and who among us hasn't put on a painful love song to share in the misery after a bad break－up？On the contrary，we can share in the delight of songs of joy and happiness，or any song or piece of music that reminds us of a particular happy time in our past. So next time you are feeling down，put on Beethoven' s Ode to Joy，I bet you will feel a lot better about whatever it was that was bothering you! 【语篇解读】 文章主要介绍了音乐怎样改变人们的生活。
