according to new 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 northwestern university in the us. his team had people listen to 31 songs of different types. the listeners felt powerful after listening to some songs, for example queens we will rock you and 2 unlimiteds 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. “its 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 his game and ease his anxiety(焦虑). as for the reason for musics magical power, hsus 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 sport group at brunel university in london, they found that pop was perfect for slower, more repetitive-type tasks. if youre warming up or cooling down after exercises, pop songs are the correct choice. dance music was found to be best suited to strength and weight training because its “fast and rhythmical”. during high-intensity (高强度的) workouts, though, youd better not listen to rock. its different changes in tempo (节拍) can affect your rhythm.58. with the opening three paragraphs, the author mainly intends to _. a. list things athletes have in common with other people b. describe athletes common habits before sports games c. get readers to wonder whether music matters in sports d. explain why athletes like listening to music before games59. which of the following statements might dennis hsu agree with? a. listening to music always betters an athletes performance. b. people who listen to powerful music are likely to 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 dont know the effects of high-power music on their performance.60. what does the underlined word “boost” in the eighth paragraph probably mean? a. control b. evaluate c. obtain d. improve61. the author makes his points clear mainly _. a. with comparisons b. through examples c. by giving general rules d. through cause and effect analysis dwaking up to the ringing phone, i looked at my clock. midnight. panicky thoughts filled my sleepy mind as i grabbed the receiver.“hello?” my heart pounded.“mama?” the voice answered. my thoughts immediately went to my daughter. when i heard the sound of a young crying voice, i grabbed my husband. “mama, i know its late. but dont say anything until i finish. and before you ask, yes, ive been drinking. i nearly ran off the road a few miles back and .” i took a sharp breath, released my husband, and pressed my hand against my forehead (额头). something wasnt right. “. and i got so scared. i want . to come home. i know running away was wrong. i should have called you days ago but i was afraid . u” i tried to talk: “i think ” “no! please let me finish! please!” she said, desperately. before i could go on, she continued. “impregnant(怀孕的), mama. i know i shouldnt be drinking . but im scared, mama. so scared!”i bi
