stories than articlebwhen students and parents are asked to rate subjects according to their importance, the arts are unavoidably at the bottom of the list. music is nice, people seem to say, but not important. too often it is viewed as mere entertainment, but certainly not an education priority(优先). this view is shortsighted. in fact, music education is beneficial and important for all students.music tells us who we are. because music is an expression of the beings who create it, it reflects their thinking and values, as well ad the social environment it came influence that george gershwin and other musicians introduced into their music is obviously american because it came from american musical traditions. music expresses our character and values. it gives us identity as a society. music provides a kind of perception(感知)that cannot be acquired any other way. science can explain how the sun rises and sets. the arts explore the emotive(情感的)meaning of the same phenomenon. we need every possible way to discover and respond to our world for one simple but powerful reason: no one way can get it all.the arts are forms of thought as powerful in what they communicate as mathematical and scientific symbols. they are ways we human beings “talk” to each other. they are the language of civilization through which we express our fears, our curiosities, our hungers, our discoveries, our hopes. the arts are ways we give form to our ideas and imagination so that they can be shared with others. when we do not give children access to an important way of expressing themselves such as music, we take away from them the meanings that music expresses.science and technology do not tell us what it means to be human. the arts do. music is an important way we express human suffering, celebration, the meaning and value of peace and love. so music education is far more necessary than people seem to realize.39. according to paragraph 1, students a. regard music as a way of entertainmentb. disagree with their parents on educationc. view music as an overlooked subjectd. prefer the arts to science40. in paragraph 2, the author uses jazz an example to a. compare it with rock musicb. show music identifies a societyc. introduce american musical traditionsd. prove music influences peoples lifestyles41. according to the passage, the arts and science .a. approach the world from different anglesb. explore different phenomena of the worldc express peoples feelings in different waysd. explain what it means to be human differently42. what is the main idea of the passage?a. music education deserves more attention.b. music should be of top education priority.c. music is an effective communication tool.d. music education makes students more imaginative.ccamping wild is a wonderful way to experience the natural world and ,at its best, it makes little environmental influence. but with increasing numbers of people wanting to escape into the wilderness, it is becoming more and more important to camp unobtrusively(不引人注目地)and leave no mark.wild camping is not permitted in many places, particularly in crowded lowland britain. wherever you are, find out about organizations responsible for managing wild spaces, and contact them to find out their policy on camping and shelter building. for example, it is fine to camp wild in remote parts of scotland, but in england you must ask the landowners permission, except in national parks.camping is about having relaxation, sleeping outdoors, experiencing bad weather, and making do without modern conveniences. a busy, fully-equipped campsite(野营地)seems to go against this, so seek out smaller, more remote places with easy access to open spaces and perhaps beaches. better still, find a campsite with no road access: walking in makes a real adventure.finding the right spot to camp is the first step to guaranteeing a good nights sleep. choose a campsite with privacy and minimum influence on others and the environment. try to use an area where people have obviously camped before rather than creating a new spot. when camping in woodland, avoid standing dead trees, which may fall on a windy night. avoid animal runs and caves, and possible homes of biting insects. make sure you have most protection on the windward side. if you make a fire, do so downwind of your shelter. always consider what influence you might have on the natural world. avoid damaging plants. a good campsite is found, not madechanging it should be unnecessary.43. you neednt ask for permission when camping in .a. national parks in england b. most parts of scotlandc. crowded lowland britain d. most parts of england44.the author thinks that a good campsite is one .a. with easy access b. used previouslyc with modern conveniences d far away from beaches45. the last paragraph mainly deals with a. protecting animals b building a campfirec camping in woodland d finding a campsite with privacy46. the passage is mainly about a the protection of campsites b the importance of wild campingc the human influence on campsites d the dos and donts of wild campingd the american newspaper has been around for about three hundred years. in 1721, the printer james franklin, benjamins older brother, started the new england courant, and that was what we might recognize today as a real newspaper. he filled his paper with stories of adventure, articles on art, on famous people, and on all sorts of political subjects. three centuries after the appearance of franklins courant, few believe that newspapers in their present printed from will remain alive for long. newspaper companies are losing advertisers，readers, market value, and in some cases, their sense of purpose at a speed that would not have been imaginable just several years ago. the chief editor of the times said recently,“at places where they gather, editors ask one another,how are you?, as if they have just come out of the hospital or a lost law case.”an article about the newspaper appeared on the website of the guandian, under the headline “not dead yet.” perhaps not, but the rise of the internet, which has made the daily newspaper look slow and out of step with the world, has brought about a real sense of death. some american newspapers have lost 42% of their market value in the past three years. the new york times company has seen its stock(股票) drop by 54% since the end of 2004, with much of the loss coming in the past year. a manager at deutsche bank suggested that stock-holders sell off their times stock. the washington post company has prevented the trouble only by changing part of its business to education; its testing and test-preparation service now brings
