Music reduces depression
More than 350million people suffer from depression around the world.A study by Hans Joachim Trappe in Germany demonstrated that music can benefit patients with depressive symptoms,depending on the type of music.(17)D,but techno and heavy metal brought people down even more.The next time you feel low,put on some classical or meditative music to lift your spirits.
(18)B
Research shows that taking music lessons predicts higher academic performance and IQ in young children.In one study,6-year-olds who took keyboard or singing lessons in small groups for 36weeks had significantly larger increases in IQ and standardized educational test results than children who took either drama lessons or no lessons. (19)A.
Music keeps your brain healthy in old age
A study with healthy older adults found that those with ten or more years of musical experience scored higher on cognitive tests than musicians with one to nine years of musical study.The non-musicians scored the lowest.Business magnate Warren Buffet stays sharp at age 84by playing ukulele.(20)C.

11.Parents used to rely on physical punishments to control their children's bad behavior,which has been proven to be very harmful.Therefore,most parents now choose to simply yell,thinking that language probably won't hurt as much.But is that really so?
    Using harsh words such as"lazy"or"stupid"is just as harmful as hitting,according to a new study carried out at the University of Pittsburgh,US."It cannot reduce or correct their problem behavior,"said Professor Ming-Te Wang,leader of the study,in an interview with The Wall Street Journal."On the contrary,it makes it worse."
    In the study,which involved 976 two-parent families,researchers asked the kids about their behavior problems,while asking their parents how often they had yelled at them. Nearly half of the parents admitted that they'd shouted at their children in the past year.Researchers noted that the kids whose parents used more harsh words experienced more behavior problems after-wards,including fighting,stealing,lying as well as symptoms of depression.
"Adolescence is a very sensitive period when kids are trying Lo develop their self-identities(个性).When you yell,it makes them feel they are not capable,and that they are worthless and useless,"Wang said."This may explain why so many parents say that no matter how loud they shout,their teenagers don't listen.          
While harsh yelling can stop bad behavior in the moment,it doesn't teach children to behave how parents want them to,according to Professor Alan Kazdin of Yale University,US.What parents need is to praise their children for good behavior.If parents really need to punish their kids,they should try things like taking away smartphones and reminding them that good behavior will get themback. After all,"we want to teach kids,not hurt them,"said Kazdin.
 
46.How do most parents react to their children's misbehaving now?C
A.Letting them alone.
B.Beating them.
C.Shouting at them.      
D.Praising them.
47.The study finds that using harsh words.A
A.can make things even worse  
B.inspires children to do better
C.corrects children's bad behavior
D.has a better effect than hitting
48.According to Professor Ming-Te Wang,D. 
A.physical punishments are sometimes necessary
B.children are more self-centered in adolescence
C.parents should never punish kids for misbehaving
D.harsh yelling damages children's self-confidence
49.In Professor Alan Kazdin's opinion,parents shouldC      
A.set good examples for their children
B.take away their children's smartphones
C.praise their children for good behavior
D.always think in their children's shoes
50.What does the underlined word"them"in the last paragraph refer to?D

18.Cultural Center Adds Classes for Young Adults
The Allendale Cultural Center has expanded its arts program to include classes for young adults.Director Leah Martin announced Monday that beginning in September,three new classes will be offered to the Allendale community.The course titles will be Yoga for Teenagers; Hip Hop Dance:Learning the Latest Moves; and Creative Journaling for Teens:Discovering the Writer Within.The latter course will not be held at the Allendale Cultural Center but instead will meet at the Allendale Public Library.
Staff member Tricia Cousins will teach the yoga and hip hop classes.Ms.Cousins is an accomplished choreographer (舞蹈教师) as well as an experienced dance educator.She has an MA in dance education from Teachers College,Columbia University,where she wrote a thesis on the pedagogical (教学法的) effectiveness of dance education.The journaling class will be taught by Betsy Milford.Ms.Milford is the head librarian at the Allendale Public Library as well as a columnist for the professional journal Library Focus.
The courses are part of the Allendale Cultural Center's Project Teen,which was initiated by Leah Martin,Director of the Cultural Center.According to Martin,this project is a direct result of her efforts to make the center a more essential part of the Allendale community.Over the last several years,the number of people who have visited the cultural center for classes or events has steadily declined.Project Teen is primarily funded by a generous grant from The McGee Arts Foundation,an organization devoted to bringing arts programs to young adults.Martin oversees the Project Teen board,which consists of five board members.Two board members are students at Allendale's Brookdale High School; the other three are adults with backgrounds in education and the arts.
The creative journaling class will be cosponsored by Brookdale High School,and students who complete the class will be given the opportunity to publish one of their journal entries in Pulse,Brookdale's student literary magazine.Students who complete the hip hop class will be eligible to participate in the Allendale Review,an annual concert sponsored by the cultural center that features local actors,musicians,and dancers.All classes are scheduled to begin immediately following school dismissal,and transportation will be available from Brookdale High School to the Allendale Cultural Center and the Allendale Public Library.For more information about Project Teen,contact the cultural center's programming office at 988-0099 or drop by the office after June 1 to pick up a fall course catalog.The office is located on the third floor of the Allendale Town Hall.
