【题目】 Researches have shown that music has an important effect on one's body and mind. In fact, there is a growing field of health care known as Music Therapy (疗法), which uses music to treat diseases. Even hospitals are beginning to use music therapy. This is not surprising, because music affects the body and mind in many powerful ways.

Researches have shown that quick music can make a person feel more alert (警觉的) while slow music can produce a calm, deep thinking state. Also, researchers have found that music can change brainwave activity levels. This can help the brain to change speeds more easily on its own as needed, which means that music can bring lasting benefits to your state of mind, even after you've stopped listening.

Breathing and heart rate can also be influenced by music. This can mean slower breathing, slower heart rate, and a relaxing response. This is why music and music therapy can help reduce the damaging effects of long- term stress, greatly promoting(促进) not only relaxation, but also health.

Music can also be used to bring about a more positive state of mind, by helping to keep worries away. Music has also been found to bring many other benefits, such as lowering blood pressure and reducing the risk of strokes (中风) among others. It is no surprise that so many people are considering music as an important tool to help the body become or stay healthy.

【题目】阅读理解
You may hear adults, especially your parents, ask you to spend less time in front of the screens. But at a camp called ID Tech, computers are the necessary tools for learning about robotics (机器人学) and video games.
Logan Doyle, 12, spent last week at this camp learning to write computer instructions for a video game he was creating. “l am trying to make the beginning of this game,” said Logan.
In the room, boys were playing a 3D racing video game. When they finished playing the game, they talked about what they liked and didn’t like about the game. Then the camper who designed the game could make it better.
Their teacher, Will Whitney, said the kids were learning problem-solving. “Kids meet a problem and think of different ways to solve it,” said Whitney. Like a lot of the teachers at the camp, Whitney attended ID Tech camp while growing up. As a kid, he loved video games. He loved the camp so much that he attended it seven years ago. “It was always the height of my summer,” he said.
Like English and Maths, it is important to understand technology. It will be important to many jobs in the future. “Technology is everywhere in our society, said Jan Plane, a computer science professor at the University of Maryland. “Whatever field kids go into, having some knowledge of technology is going to make a difference.”
