Riding a bicycle has become very popular these days.

My school is far from my house, so I went there by bus for years. I sometimes got there late. This March I asked my father to get me a bicycle so that I might get to school on time. And he bought me one some days later.

Then the problem was how to ride the bicycle. One of my friends lives next door. He helped me learn how to ride. He took me to a school playground and demonstrated how to ride to me. When it was my turn to ride, he ran with me. He did that to make sure he would be there when I was falling off I learned things very quickly and could ride a bicycle without anyone's help after a few days.

“Without music, life would be a mistake,” famous German philosopher(哲学家)Friendrich Nietzsche said over a century ago. Music is a big part of our lives. But in recent years, some US schools have cut music classes to control budgets(预算).

For example, Chicago public schools hurt arts education when it fired over 1,000 teachers. Among them, 10 percent of the teachers taught art or music, according to The Washington Times. In fact, this is not just a problem in the US. In other countries, such as China and the UK, music classes are not thought to be as important as ones like science, math and history. That’s partly because music is not seen as a very important life skill, and it isn’t tested. Many students are busy with schoolwork, so parents and students choose to focus on subjects that are tested more often.

However, learning music is beneficial(有益的)in many ways.

When playing music, you need different abilities to work together. It is not as simple as it looks, according to Kenneth Guilmartin of Music Together, an early childhood music development program. For example, when playing the piano, people see music notes and decode(解码)them in their brains. They also use their fingers to make sounds. You need to deal with all these things at the same time.

Music has a special connection with science as well. You can see that many scientists are good at playing music: Einstein played the violin, and German physicist Max Planck was talented in playing the piano.

1.Some schools in the US cut music classes, because ______.

A.they were too difficult to learn B.students in the US weren’t interested in music

C.the schools wanted to control budgets D.there weren’t enough music teachers in the US

2.In Paragraph 2, what does the underlined word “them” refer to(指代)?

A.Students in Chicago. B.Public schools. C.Parents in Chicago. D.Fired teachers.

3.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?

A.Different abilities are needed to work together while we are playing music.

B.Playing the piano needs people to use fingers to make sounds.

C.Decoding music notes is needed while we are playing music.

D.Playing the piano needs people to see music notes.

4.How many scientists who are good at playing music are mentioned in this passage?

A.One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Four.

5.What’s the writer’s opinion according to this passage?

A.Music is as simple as it looks. B.Music classes should be cut in some schools.

C.Music is a big part of our lives. D.Music isn’t a very important life skill for us.
