So its likely that your own musical preference will follow a similar path to your parents whether you like it or not.We used to think that culture and personality arc the only factors that affect ones music choice. But rese

19、archers at the University of Cambridge, UK, gathered data from more than 250,000 people over the past 10 years. They noticed that as people age, their social circumstances change, and so does their music taste.There are three musical periods that people pass through as they mature-intense”, “contemp

20、orary” and “sophisticated”.The first period comes in the teenagers years, during which time people like intense music such as punk and rock because teenagers tend to be aggressive and want to establish their identity as independent individuals.But as people move into early adulthood, their lifestyle

21、 changesthey socialize more and want to build close relationships with others. As a result, they become more fond of contemporary music, such as pop and R&B, which is usually uplifting and danceable and played at parties where people hang out together and chat.When middle age comes, things have sett

22、led down for most people. This period will be dominated (支配) by more “sophisticated” music, such as jazz and classical, as well as more catchy music like country, folk, and blues.“For many, this life stage is frequently exhausted by work and family, and there is a requirement for relaxing, emotive (

23、动情的) music,” Jason Rentfrow, a researcher member, told The telegraph.But you must be thinking: “Arent there old people who are still into rock music?” Of course there are. But Rentfrow explained that their reasons for listening to rock music may have changed. “We use music for different reasons,” he

24、 said, and thus at that age people may listen to remind themselves of their youths.1、Why do children usually like different songs from their parents according to the passage?AChildren prefer cool music.BMusic taste changes with age.Cparents songs are always dull.DParents have better social circumsta

By the age of one, they can recognise the significant noises around them and group them into a language. When we have lost

28、this capacity as adults, it becomes enormously difficult to distinguish between sounds that are glaringly different to a native speaker. It all sounds Greek to us. This is because the range of possible sounds that humans use to convey meaning may be as high as 2,000, but few languages use more than

29、100 and even then the significant noisesthe phonemes (音素) of a languageeach cover a range of sounds and so vague distinctions which would change the meaning of a word in other languages.But where do these phonemes come from and why do they shift over time? New research suggests that the apparently a

30、rbitrary distribution of some sounds around the world may be partially explained by diet. This is unexpected. Wed rather think of language as product of our thought, rather than of the arrangement of our teeth. In reality, though, any given language must be both.Hunter gatherer languages very seldom

31、 use the sounds known as labiodentals (唇齿音)those such as f and vthat are made by touching the lower lip with the upper teeth. Only two of the hundreds of Australian aboriginal languages use them, for example. But in cultures that have discovered farming, these consonants (辅音) are much more common. T

32、he argument goes that farmers eat more cooked food and more dairy than hunter gatherers. Either way, they need to chew mush less, and to bite less with their front teeth. So farmers grew up with smaller lower jaws and more of an overbite than their ancestors who had to bite through harder foods. It

33、became easier for them to make the labiodental consonants instead of purely labial (唇音) ones: one example is that f come to take the place of p. Romans said “pater” but English speakers (unless theyre ReesMoggs) say “father”.Beyond these particular changes, the story highlights the way in which ever

34、ything distinctively human is both material and spiritual: speech must combine sound and meaning, and the meaning can t exist or be transmitted without a real object. But neither can it be reduced to the purely physical, as our inability to understand or even to recognise foreign languages makes cle

35、ar. The food we eat shapes our jaws, and our jaws in turn shape the sounds of our language. The ease with which we eat probably shapes our thought too, as anyone who has suffered toothache could testify. What we eat may have shaped the sounds of our language, but how we eat changes how we feel and w

36、hat we use language to express. A family meal is very different from a sandwich at the office desk, even if the calorie is the same. Food has purposes and meanings far beyond keeping us alive and pleasing the Palate (味觉).1、Compared with adults, babies could more easily .Acreate significant noisesBcl
