10．Parents who help their kids with homework might feel disappointed after knowing what two researchers Angel L．Harris and Keith Robinson have found．
"We need to do away with the assumption that anything parents do will help．That assumes that parents have all the answers，but actually they don't，"Harris said．
"We found that when parents from various racial and socioeconomic groups regularly helped their child with homework，in most cases，it made no difference for the child's improvement in their test scores in reading，math，and their grades，"Robinson said．
Could the findings simply reflect the fact that kids struggling with school ask for more homework help，thus making it look as though children who get more help do worse？No，Harris said，because the researchers measured the change in achievement among all kids，including those who performed well in school．The effect of parental homework involvement was the same across the board．
"Parents tend to hold the reins when it comes to how they're going to help with homework without consulting the child，"Robinson noted．"So maybe parents could ask kids，‘Is what I'm doing helping you？How would you want me to help？'In this way，kids may benefit more from parents'help．"
Vicki Davis，a high school teacher，said she's seen her share of parents doing the assignments for their kids，especially writing papers，or taking charge of important and big projects．Davis expects elementary school students to get help from parents because they're still learning study skills，and she doesn't mind if older students talk"big picture"with their families about a project．But in general，parents should limit their involvement in making sure kids are completing their homework，she advised．
Kerry Lyons，a mother of five in Irvington，N．Y．，said the research findings are a"huge relief．"Lyons works full time，so when she gets home，her kids-are usually done with homework．
32．It was found that parental homework involvement generallyA．
A．has a poor effect

C．has a negative effect
D．has a poor effect
33．The underlined part"hold the reins"in Paragraph 5can best be replaced by"B"．
A．show up

C．watch out
D．get ready
34．Who does Vicki Davis want parents to help with homework？C
A．high school students．
B．students who are writing papers．
C．primary school students．
D．students who perform poorly in school．
35．How did Kerry Lyons find the research findings？A
A．Comforting．

D．Disappointing．

6．Music is magic!Music speaks louder than words and it is a"language"that the whole world can understand．A piece of music can produce a response in the heart and mind．Like feeling an electrical current or receiving a personal radio signal，music has a spiritual effect on a person．Different kinds of music influence people in different ways．
I have listened to music all my life．When I was twelve years old，the Beatles came to America and my whole world opened up．Maybe young people today cannot understand the influence of the Beatles when they exploded across America．Their influence changed the way we dressed，looked，acted and spoke…even our culture．The Beatles arrived in America from the UK just under three months after the assassination（暗杀） of President John Kennedy，which had put America into a great depression．And the freshness and lively spirit of the Beatles was exactly what the country needed to refresh itself．
Music links the heart of the hearer with that of the composer．This means that it mixes the spirit of the composer with your spirit when you listen to it．And the music can take your spirit out of your body and transport you into another world．Music has a great way of touching people．Music can make you laugh，cry or shout．It's also a great source of inspiration．
Try this one day and notice what happens：make yourself a cup of tea，sit on your sofa and play one of your favorite songs．Close your eyes，and soon you'll find yourself creating vivid mental images-matching the music that you are listening to．
