We tend to think that music is larger than our cultural differences and shows the deeper connections between us.But according to a recent study published in the Current Biology, music doesnt speak to everyone. There is a condition, the researchers argue, called musical anhedonia. They say that those who have this condition may have few abilities to experience pleasure from music.For the study, 30 people listened to the same, mostly classical music pieces. They were then asked to complete a questionnaire on how they felt about the music. At the same time, the researchers measured their heart rate and skin reaction, which are considered physiological measures of feelings.According to the researchers, most of the people in the study got pleasure from the music. They had a quicker heartbeat and sweatedmore. However, a small number of them had very little and even no pleasant feeling while they were listening to the music. These people had none or very few of the physical signs which the others in the study experienced.The researchers say that this means people have different abilities to enjoy music and that there are people who specifically cant enjoy music at allTo study the condition more deeply, another group of scientists, at Columbia University, US, researched brain activities. They found that the key is the blood flow to the reward system in the brain. People who got less pleasure from music had comparatively lower blood flow to areas involved in the reward system of the brain when they were listening to music.The lower blood flow makes it more likely that the brains reward system will be inactive. And it will produce less of the pleasure chemical dopamine. As a result, people get less pleasure from music.If the research is correct, according to National Public Radio, there are simply people who just dont get music. They may get pleasure from many things, but a good tune isnt one of them.（1）The people who is called musical anhedonia _. A . avoid listening to musicB . like to listen to certain types of musicC . cant feel the pleasure that music brings to othersD . believe cultural differences are larger than music（2）What was the purpose of the study mentioned in Current Biology? A . To learn what music people love the most.B . To learn how music influences peoples feelings.C . To understand the relationship between music and the body.D . To see whether music works in the same way for all people.（3）What happened in the study when people listened to music? A . All of them had faster heartbeat and sweated more.B . Those who enjoyed music had slower blood flow.C . They showed different physical signs as the music changed.D . Those who enjoyed music had more dopamine produced.（4）Which part of a magazine may the article appear in? A . Science.B . Sports.C . Health.D . Fashion.四、 任务型阅读。 (共1题；共7分)25. （7分）按要求完成各项任务A survey of young people around the world looked at their ideas of todays teenagersIt shows how different they are to those of their parents and grandparentsThe survey wanted to try and understand the next generation （ 一 代 人 ） of adults better and these are some of the resultsThey show that there are many more （A） similarities between young people around the world than differencesGap years （间隔年） between school and university are becoming more and more commonTodays teenagers want to travel to different countries and experience different culturesThey regard this as an important part of their character developmentFor most teenagers，family and friends are the most important side of lifeAccording to the survey，60 percent of British young people said their relationship with their family was of the highest importance to （B） them 75percent of teenagers in Western Europe expect to have enough money to live when they are adultsThey are a happy generationEight out of ten believe they will have a good profession with a job they enjoyThey also expect that they will be happy and healthyYoung people now are hungry for all kinds of information on mass media.57percent of teenagers in the UK read at least one magazine every week，which is one of the highest totals in the world（1）根据文章内容，把相关的信息匹配将答案的字母代号填入对应的横线上AHopeinthefuture BCrazyforinformationCDiscoveringtheworld DFamilyand
