Since I discovered it two years ago, Ive used music to get through boring work or to focus creatively. Ive found that it can make even the dullest jobs enjoyable and help clear mental blocks to creativity.I first noticed the good effects of music while playing video games. It was a few days before Christmas in 2020 and I was playing online video games. My parents had just given me a new MP3, so I decided to listen to music through the headphones while I played. After a few minutes I noticed a great change in my style of play. I was playing more naturally. The music helped me block out the outside world. With those headphones on I was like a machine, moving from one task to the next without unnecessary thoughts or actions.Music can also have a great effect on mood. If Im in a bad mood at work, Ill listen to some of Bob Marleys and get down to business. It always takes my mind off what Im doing and makes me a happier person. The same is true for classic rock. One summer, I did a boring job collecting bottle openers by band. Without a radio playing classic rock in the background，I would have hated life.Listening to music with relaxing rhythms and a positive message helps you forget your work and think happy thoughts. But the results you see will depend heavily on your personal tastes. Experiment with the types of music you listen to during certain tasks. By trial and error youll finally discover your best choice. Im always looking for new concentration aids, so Id love to know what type of music works best for me.21We can infer that the passage was written in _.A 2020 B 2020 C 2020 D 202022The author first discovered the effects of music _.A from his parentsBby chanceCat workD. when he was a child23The author mentions the experience of collecting bottle openers in Paragraph 3 to _.Atell us that life is dullBprove that music affects moodCtell us how to seek happinessDtell us bad mood can affect work24In order to get the greatest effect of music, you are advised to _.Alisten to some of Bob MarleysBonly choose relaxing musicCtest all kinds of musicDlisten to classic rockBAs a teacher we all have those memories of studentswe wonder if we were able to teach or reach those students who had a need to get out of their seats every five minutes or so.I recently received an e-mail from one such student, Paco, Pacos e-mail brought back memories of one particular class:It was our high schools first year of block scheduling our classes were 80 minutes long instead of the traditional 40 minutes. On this particular day, I was being observed by two college professors. Of course, I was proud of the fact that the class was conducted entirely in Spanish and the students felt comfortable expressing themselves in Spanish.On that day, Paco came running through the door with a toasted cheese sandwich in hand. “ Senora Mike. Im hungry and I hope you dont mind if I just quickly eat this great toasted cheese sandwich. ” I said, “Go ahead, Paco. ”Paco sat down and finished his sandwich, Paco had now noticed our two visitors. Of course, our two visitors noticed Paco the minute he ran through the door.The lesson was going along quite well, and all the students were working in their groups. Suddenly, Paco raised his hand and said, “Senora, estalloviendo en mispantalones. ”(“Mrs. M. it is raining in my pants. ”) Now, being Pacos Spanish teacher, I understood what he wanted. I knew that it was his way of requesting to go to the bathroom. You could just imagine the laughter from the other students.I always wonder just how much Spanish Paco learned in that class, but I know he learned more than just Spanish based on an e-mail he recently wrote to me:I know I was a handful but you actually cared. You knew I had potential. So even though I messed up a lot, you never gate upIm deeply grateful to you Senora, everything you taught me about Spanish.

The house-sharing model was first introduced by the website C in 2020. It is still the largest website for travelers to find accommodation（食宿）without much money to spend.Encouraged by her great experience of homestays in France, Maggita, 30, considered short-term hire as her first choice in her future trips. She later went back to her hometown Shanghai and ran a “shared accommodation” business.The short-term hire idea has been a win-win business model. For travelers, they can rent a special room at a reasonable price and also enjoy a firsthand experience of the local culture, compared with traditional hotels. For owners, they can gain much with daily rental. Now Maggita has quit her last job in an IT company and become a host of some 20 homestays, which enables her to earn a monthly income of around 40,000-50,000 yuan.In recent years, China has seen many homestay booking websites such as Xiaozhu and Tujia. Chen Chi, the founder and CEO of Xiaozhu, said the model is to share rooms or apartments that are not in use with people who need them. Instead of the traditional view that Chinese people feel uncomfortable living with strangers, Chen found that a large number of travelers got along well with house owners.However, experts have pointed out a series of problems brought about by the fashion. Lacking supervision（监管）to those accommodation sharing websites, the service quality and accommodation safety cannot be guaranteed（保障）. Experts suggest that the online websites should closely work together with communities and local police stations to improve the services.29. What can we learn about homestays from the first paragraph?A. They started in China.B. They offer the best service.C. They can be money-saving.D. They are popular with the youth.30. What does the underlined word “quit” in the third paragraph mean?A. Taken up.B. Given up.C. Looked for.D. Gone for.31. What does Chen Chi think of this sharing model?A. Useless.B. Relaxing. C. Well-accepted. D. Uncomfortable.32. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Homestays need to be improved.B. Some experts dont support homestays.C. Lacking supervision is the biggest problem.D. The police should manage the homestay services.DIt is said that there is an increasing concern about the use of Nitrous Oxide（一氧化二氮）, or laughing gas in China.A recent article FinallyI come back homein a wheel chair has been read over 100,000 times since its posting. It is about a young womans fight with Nitrous Oxide while she is studying in Seattle in the United States.Nitrous Oxide is colorless with a slightly pleasant smell and taste at room temperature. The first important use of Nitrous Oxide was made at hospitals for its pain-reducing effects.In the article the woman shows how Nitrous Oxide caused her physical pain and poor grade in school. Driven by stress and curiosity (好奇心)，the woman tells how she used Nitrous Oxide as a habit. But a year later, she began to develop serious problems, including body weakness and incontinence (失禁).She had to give up studying in Seattle and came back to China in a wheel chair.Another young man from China who was also studying in the US fell into a state like sleep for several weeks after using Nitrous Oxide last year.Nitrous Oxide, which remains available for trade on the Internet, is not controlled in China. However, it is likely to kill people. Apart from the possibility of dying from overusing it, people can also have other long-term problems. Medical experts are so worried about it.33.
