听力原文： It's common knowledge that music can have a powerful effect on our emotions. In fact, since the 1930s, music therapists have relied on music to calm patients and help control pain. Now psychologists are confirming that music can also help relieve depression and improve concentration. For instance, in a recent study, 50 surgeons were given some high-stressed math problems to solve. They were divided into three groups: one worked in silence, and in another, the surgeons listened to music of their choice on headphones; the third group listened to classical music chosen by the researchers. The results of the study may surprise you. The doctors who got to choose their own music experienced less stress and scored better than the others. One possible explanation is that listening to the music you like stimulates Alfa waves in the brain, increases heart rate and expands breathing. That helps to reduce stress and sharpen concentration. Other research suggests a second relationship between music and the brain: By examining the blood of students after they listened to a variety of classical music selections, researchers found that some students showed a large increase in endorphin, a natural pain reliever. This supports what music therapists have known for years: Music can help revitalize or calm the patient.

听力原文： Let me get straight to the point as to why we've gathered here today. Some students have requested a change in the music for this year's graduation ceremony. We are happy to announce that we've found a piece of music which may be a perfect replacement for the traditional marches that are commonly played during graduation. Since marches tend to be very repetitive, it was suggested that we try to find some more melodic music which might still be appropriate for the ceremony. We did some research and we've come up with an alternative that we hope you will appreciate. Since the standard graduation march is the song Pomp and Circumstance by Edwin Elgar, we looked through our music archives to see if we could find another piece by Elgar which was not so repetitive. Luckily, we were rewarded for our efforts by the discovery of a piece of orchestra music known as the Enigma Variations which may be just the answer to your requests. I'll play a tape for you in a few minutes to give you a taste of the music, and I'll also make the tape available in the library if any of you want to listen to it more thoroughly. We'll take a vote on the matter during the final rehearsal on the fifth. And remember, according to the committee rules, we shall not play the new song unless we have a vote of at least two-thirds in favor. Are there any questions？
(22)
A．The music of Edwin Elgar.
B．Traditional graduation songs.
C．The music for the graduation.
D．The alternatives to Edwin Elgar.

W: That's nice. Do they have any concrete examples？
M: For instance, in a recent study, 15 surgeons were given some highly stressed math problems to solve. They were divided into three groups: one worked in silence; and in another, the surgeons listened to music of their choice on headphones; the third listened to classic music chosen by the researchers.
W: What're the results？
M: The results of the study may surprise you. The doctors who got to choose their music experienced less stress and scored better than the others.
W: That is surprising. How to explain this？
M: One possible explanation is that listening to music you tike stimulates the Alfa-wave in the brain, increases the heart rate and expands the breathing. That helps to reduce stress and sharpen concentration.
W: Is there any other research？
M: Yes. Other research suggests a second relation between the music and the brain; by examining the student's blood after listening to a variety of classical music collections, the researchers found that some students showed a large increase in a chemical substance, a natural pain reliever, in their blood, which can held soothe the patient.
W: Well, thank you so much for being with us today and having us know about another function of music.

"We realized in the mid-1970s that it was missing," says Effie Kapsalis, head of the Smithsonian Insitution Archives. "It was noted as missing and likely taken by an intern (实习生), from what the FBI is telling us. Word got out that it was missing when someone asked to see the letter for research purposes," and the intern put the letter back. "The intern likely took the letter again once nobody was watching it."
Decades passed. Finally, the FBI received a tip that the stolen document was located very close to Washington, D.C. Their art crime team recovered the letter but were unable to press charges because the time of limitations had ended. The FBI worked closely with the Archives to determine that the letter was both authentic and definitely Smithsonian's property.
The letter was written by Darwin to thank an American geologist, Dr. Ferdinand Vandeveer Hayden, for sending him copies of his research into the geology of the region that would become Yellowstone National Park.
The letter is in fairly good condition, in spite of being out of the care of trained museum staff for so long. "It was luckily in good shape," says Kapsalis, "and we just have to do some minor things in order to be able to unfold it. It has some glue on it that has colored it slightly, but nothing that will prevent us from using it. After it is repaired, we will take digital photos of it and that will be available online. One of our goals is to get items of high research value or interest to the public online."
It would now be difficult for an intern, visitor or a thief to steal a document like this. "Archiving practices have changed greatly since the 1970s," says Kapsalis, "and we keep our high value documents in a safe that I don't even have access to."
81.What happened to Darwin's letter in the 1970s____
A.It was recovered by the FBI
B.It was stolen more than once.
C.It was put in the archives for research purposes.
D.It was purchased by the Smithsonian Archives.
82.What did the FBI do after the recovery of the letter____
A.They proved its authenticity.
B.They kept it in a special safe.
C.They arrested the suspect immediately.
D.They pressed criminal charges in vain.
83.What is Darwin's letter about____
A.The evolution of Yellowstone National Park.
B.His cooperation with an American geologist.
C.Some geological evidence supporting his theory.
D.His acknowledgement of help from a professional.
84.What will the Smithsonian Institution Archives do with the letter according to Kapsalis____
A.Reserve it for research purposes only.
B.Turn it into an object of high interest.
C.Keep it a permanent secret.
D.Make it available online.
85.What has the past half century witnessed according to Kapsalis____
A.Growing interest in rare art objects.
B.Radical changes in archiving practices.
C.Recovery of various missing documents.
D.Increases in the value of museum exhibits.

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.
Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human condition is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to cope with major life changes and daily hassles (困难). People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, reveal that the presence of social support helps people fend off (挡开) illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.
Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives, and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others despite our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting (转移…注意力) us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support—financial aid,material resources, and needed services—that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.
1. Interpersonal relationships are important because ________.
A) they are indispensable to people’s social well-being
B) they awaken people’s desire to exchange resources
C) they help people to cope with life in the information era
D) they can cure a range of illnesses such as heart disease, etc
2. Research shows that people’s physical and mental health ________.
A) relies on the social welfare systems which support them
B) has much to do with the amount of support they get from others
C) depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troubles
D) is closely related to their strength for coping with major changes in their lives
3. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “cushions” (Line 1, Para. 2)？
A) Adds up to. B) Does away with.
C) Lessens the effect of. D) Lays the foundation for.
4. Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work is an example of ________.
A) instrumental support
B) informational support
C) social companionship
D) the strengthening of self-respect
5. Social companionship is beneficial in that ________.
A) it helps strengthen our ties with relatives
B) it enables us to eliminate our faults and mistakes
C) it makes our leisure-time activities more enjoyable
D) it draws our attention away from our worries and troubles

M: This saying has been scientifically proven! According to our research, laughter strengthens the immune system and lowers the levels of stress hormones...
W: Can you be more specific？
M: Well, (23)after a bout of laughter, blood pressure drops to a lower, healthier level than when the laughter began. Dr. William Fry of Stanford University found that "twenty seconds of guffawing gives the heart the same workout as three minutes of hard rowing".
W: What else？
M: Another year-long study of heart attack victims done at the Oakhurst Health Research Institute in California found that of those patients who spent half an hour a day watching comedy videos, 10 percent had a second heart attack, whereas 30 percent of those who did not watch had a second attack.
W: Wow! Laughter is really a good medicine to patients. So do we have to learn to laugh？
M: Not necessarily. (24)Since laughing is something people can do sitting down, costs no money, and requires no special exercise equipment or skill, it's the perfect workout for anyone who doesn't have the time or desire to participate in a regular fitness program.
W: Oh, I see. What about the situation in which you aren't in a mood to laugh？
M: OK, remember, (25)even when you fake a smile or laugh, you get the same physiological benefits as when it's the real thing, because your mind is smart, but your body is stupid and can't tel1 the difference.
W: Great! I've learned it. Thank you very much!
M: My pleasure.
(20)
A．The levels of his stress hormones will be lowered.
B．His blood pressure will drop to a lower level.
C．He will have a better appetite.
D．His body temperature will rise.

M: Yes, Unfortunately, that's a common problem with books made from wood pulp.
W: I suppose that to make paper from wood you have to add a lot of chemicals and acids to make it tam white.
M: Exactly, and it's the acid that eventually eats away the paper.
W: Oh, that actually makes sense, but this book's not even 75 years old and I've seen books in museum that are hundreds of years old and they're in fine condition.
M: Well, you see, books have been made from wood pulp only since the 1850s, before that they were made from materials mostly animals' skins, and no chemicals were added.
W: It's a shame those older wood pulp books are going to fall apart some day. is there anything that can be done to preserve them？
M: En, currently the only way to stop the books from decaying is to remove the binding and treat each page individually to remove the acid.
W: That doesn't sound very economical.
M: No, it isn't. It's not practical to treat a large number of books with this process, so we only try to rescue the most valuable edition books in our collection.
W: Well, thanks for the explanation. I'd better got back to my project.
M: Good luck and I hope the old book will hold long enough for you to finish it.
