Whether you admit it or not, music improves our daily life and makes us feel easy, especially the music of Beethoven（贝多芬）, Mozart（莫扎特）. But can you believe that a school in England is using classical music to cut down on（减少） students' bad behavior?
The head teacher Brian Walker at the West Park School in Derby asks some students to stay behind after school on Fridays. He forces his students to listen to Mozart and other classical（古典的） music. He also makes them copy（抄写） his favorite poems and they have to watch educational videos.
Mr. Walker says his main aim is to stop noisy pupils causing trouble in class for students who want to study. He said the students staying behind were "not the smokers or drinkers, the truants (逃学的学生 ) or the people who are late for school... It's those who have slowed the learning and teaching in class for everyone". Mr. Walker said this was unacceptable, because it was making the rest of the students distract（转移） their attention on their study.
Mr. Walker believes what he does reminds students that education is something to value. "It helps them see they are part of something bigger that will improve their life chances," he said. The head teacher thinks students in fact learn from being kept behind after school. "Hopefully, I open their ears to an experience they don't normally have and...don't want to have again, so it's both educational and acts as a warning."
Music has had success elsewhere in reducing bad behavior. In 2004, it reduced crime（犯罪） on London's subway by 25 percent. Researchers from a Belfast university found it helped stop elephants' bad behavior.
However, one West Park student called Kieran said, "An hour of Mr. Walker's music is a real killer."
71. Mr. Walker asks his students to listen to music to _______________.
A. make them rest after a day's study
B. punish them for their bad behavior
C. get them to love arts gradually
D. reduce their bad behavior
72. A student who _____may be left behind to listen to Mozart after class.
A. plays truant B. smokes in class
C. bothers（打扰）others in class D. comes late for class
73. Why does Mr. Walker say some students' bad behavior is unacceptable?
A. Because the rest of the students hate them.
B. Because they are wasting their life.
C. Because they are disturbing teachers.
D. Because they have a bad influence on the other students.
74. In the eyes of Mr. Walker,_____.
A. some students don't realize education is valuable
B. all students can learn from music
C. music must be taught after class
D. students ought to love music
75. It can be inferred from the last two paragraphs that_____.

C. once music helped animals behave well

Children have their own rules in playing games. They seldom need a judge and rarely trouble to keep scores. They don’t care much about who wins or loses, and it doesn’t seem to worry them if the game is not finished. Yet, they like games that depend a lot on luck, so that their personal abilities cannot be directly compared. They also enjoy games that move in stages, in which each stage, the choosing of leaders, the picking-up of sides, or the determining of which side shall start, is almost a game in itself.
Grown-ups can hardly find children’s games exciting, and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again. However, it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons. He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinarily afraid. He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn. He can be confident, too, in particular games, that it is his place to give orders, to pretend to be dead, to throw a ball actually at someone, or to kiss someone he caught.
It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control. Everyone knows the rules, and more important, everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish, but they make sure that every child has a chance to win
