Ⅳ.阅读理解

Have you ever wondered why malls, restaurants, and even theaters have music playing? Well, just look back at how you have felt when you have heard music playing at these places. Playing the right type of music can help people feel better. Music also has an effect on your concentration (集中注意力). Music even helps patients feel better and helps them recover faster and better.

Depression (沮丧) is a state of mind that most of us experience at some point of time. There are periods in our life when everything can seem difficult. Studies have shown that music can be a major mood (心情) lifter in such situations. Music also plays a great role in reducing anxiety. Anxiety often causes lack (不足) of sleep and other related problems.

Music is often known as the international language.We may not know the language another person is speaking but most of us respond to music in the same manner. Music is one of the best ways to lift your moods, but this can depend a lot on the type of music you listen to. While happy music can make you feel better, sad music can further drown your spirits. If the tempo (拍子) is fast, you will become excited and dance to the music. Listening to classical music can often make you feel powerful while soft music can be the perfect way to help you relax at the end of a long day.

If you want to use music to change the way you are feeling, you need to recognize the type of music that can lift your moods. Once you know the type of music you can use, you can use it to change the way you feel.

【文章大意】　音乐能够改善我们的心情，但是不同的音乐对于我们的情绪的影响是不一样的。因此，我们要弄清各种音乐的作用，选择适合自己的音乐。

3．What does the author advise us to do in the last paragraph?

A．To listen to proper music.

B．To learn to play an instrument.

C．To enjoy some music every day.
