(2019·全国卷Ⅱ)
Marian Bechtel sits at West Palm Beach's Bar Louie counter by herself, quietly reading her ebook as she waits for her salad. What is she reading? None of your business! Lunch is Bechtel's “me” time. And like more Americans, she's not alone.

A new report found 46 percent of meals are eaten alone in America. More than half (53 percent)have breakfast alone and nearly half (46 percent) have lunch by themselves. Only at dinnertime are we eating together anymore, 74 percent, according to statistics from the report.
“I prefer to go out and be out. Alone, but together, you know?” Bechtel said, looking up from her book. Bechtel, who works in downtown West Palm Beach, has lunch with coworkers sometimes, but like many of us, too often works through lunch at her desk. A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder. She returns to work feeling energized. “ Today, I just wanted some time to myself, ” she said.
Just two seats over, Andrew Mazoleny, a local videographer, is finishing his lunch at the bar. He likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom he's on a firstname basis if he wants to have a little interaction(交流). “I reflect on how my day's gone and think about the rest of the week,” he said. “ It's a chance for selfreflection. You return to work recharged and with a plan.”
That freedom to choose is one reason more people like to eat alone. There was a time when people may have felt awkward about asking for a table for one, but those days are over. Now, we have our smartphones to keep us company at the table. “ It doesn't feel as alone as it may have before all the advances in technology,” said Laurie Demeritt, whose company provided the statistics for the report.

Need inspiration? Happy background music can help people get the creative juice flowing.
Simone Ritter,at Radboud University in the Netherlands,and Sam Ferguson at the University of Technology Sydney,Australia,have been studying the effect of silence and different types of music on how we think.
They divided 155 volunteers into five groups.Four of these were each given a type of music to listen to while taking a series of tests,while the fifth group did the tests in silence.The tests were produced to judge two types of thinking:divergent thinking,which refers to the process of creating new ideas,and convergent thinking,which is how we find the best solution to a problem.Ritter and Ferguson found that people were more creative when listening to music they thought was positive,coming up with more special ideas than the people who worked in silence.
“We also performed other types of music that were sad,anxious and calm,and didn't see this effect,” says Ferguson.“It seems that the type of music present
6
is important,rather than just any music.” In addition,no type of music helped convergent thinking,suggesting that it's better to solve problems in silence.
Ritter and Ferguson write that their finding could be used to improve creative thinking in places like educational institutions or laboratories,but Irma at the University of Helsinki in Finland,says happy music may help creativity by setting off the release of dopamine,a brain chemical involved in pleasure and relief.“Dopamine also increases creative thinking and goaldirected working,” says Irma.And she also thinks happy music may not help convergent thinking because this kind of thinking relies more on logic and less on creativity.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。主要研究了音乐对两种思考方式的影响,尤其是快乐的背景音乐对创造力的影响。
5.How does happy background music help people work?
A.By making people enjoy the juice.
B.By influencing people's behavior.
C.By inspiring people to work less.
D.By improving people's creativity.
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Happy background music can help people get the creative juice flowing.”以及第三段中的“people were more creative...was positive”可知,D项正确。
6.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Dopamine can direct our convergent thinking.
B.Divergent thinking helps find the best solution.
C.Divergent thinking helps produce the new ideas.
D.Dopamine can reduce our divergent thinking.
解析:选C 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“divergent thinking,which refers to the process of creating new ideas,and convergent thinking,which is how we find the best solution to a problem”可知,帮助解决问题的是求同思维,帮助产生新想法的是分散思维。故选C。
7.What could be the best title for the passage?
A.Happy Music Makes You Lively
B.Happy Music Excites Your Creativity
C.Happy Music Keeps You Clever
D.Happy Music Simplifies Your Work
解析:

选B 标题归纳题。文章第一段点明主题——快乐的背景音乐可以激发人们的创造性。因此,B项最能概括主题。
Ⅳ.七选五
(2019·湖北省三十四校联考)
How similar are language and music?
Language is part of our daily lives,no matter where we live in the world. 1 Both language and music play a huge role in our culture and here are some of their similarities.
•Both language and music have a writing system.
In English we record language using the alphabet,which is a collection of letters.Similarly,we use notes (音符) to keep a record of music.Musicians read notes and create meaning in the form of music. 2 By writing pieces of text or music,we are able to share experiences through time.We can read the ideas or hear the composition (作品) of someone who lived hundreds of years ago.
• 3
You can make a good guess at where someone is from by listening to the language he uses.In the same way,we know that styles of music are different around the world,giving us the opportunity to explore many different cultures through their music and providing us with music for every situation.
•Both share emotion.
4 Of course you may be able to see it in my face,but you will know for sure through my words.Similarly,music can sound angry,sad or happy.Music can show you exactly how the composer was or is feeling,and allows us to share that emotion.When you feel happy,you might want to sing and dance to a happy song to celebrate your happiness. 5 I think we have all used music to express or process our emotions,often combining it with language in the form of song lyrics(歌词).
A.Both are expressive.
B.Both vary with culture.
C.How do you know that I am angry?
D.We use language to express our thoughts.
E.Similarly,music is part of many people's lives.
F.So just as you read English,you can read music.
G.In contrast,you probably also listen to sad music when you are feeling down.
【解题导语】

本文是一篇议论文。本文分析了语言和音乐的相似之处:有书写系统,随文化而变和分享情感。
1.解析:选E 空前讲“语言是我们日常生活的一部分”,空后又提到“Both language and music”可知,空处应是引出“music”,故E项符合上下文。故选E。
2.解析:选F 根据本段小标题可知,语言和音乐一样都有书写系统,空前讲音乐家阅读音符并用音乐创造意义。故空处应讲阅读音乐。下文中的“We can read”也是提示。故选F。
3.解析:选B 空处为本段小标题,且根据本段内容可知,本段主要讲可以通过音乐来探索不同的文化。B项“Both vary with culture.”符合上下文。故选B。
4.解析:选C 根据该段小标题和空后的内容可知,该段是讲音乐与心情的联系。C项“How do you know that I am angry?”符合上下文,下文中的“music can sound angry”也是提示。故选C。
5.解析:选G 空前一句讲当你感到快乐的时候,你可能想要唱歌并随着快乐的歌曲跳舞来庆祝你的快乐。空处应讲伤心难过时的表现作为对比。故选G。
