In traditional Chinese performing arts,there are many classic roles,like sheng,dan,jing,mo and chou.Most people usually pay little attention to chou.However,it is a very important part in traditional Chinese operas .The reason is that it joins beauty and ugliness together perfectly.In the past,the chou perform er was the first one to get dressed and have his make- up done.
Usually there are two kinds of chou on the stage,wen chou and wu chou.Wen chou often has a white patch(小块) painted around his nose and takes the roles of fisherman,boatman,servant and so on.The other kind is wu chou.Wu chou performers often wear tight clothing(紧身衣) and move quickly.They are good at martial arts(武术) and can jump several meters high.They usually express themselves in loud voices and play humorous roles,for example,kind thieves.
Chou performers often make people laugh by their spoken parts and body language,instead of singing skills.Whether they look ugly or beautiful,whether the roles they play are officials or thieves on the stage,chou roles are all humorous characters in funny faces.They use the roles of chou to bring out the good qualities in people.Maybe it is the charm(魅力) of traditional Chinese operas.

If music makes you smarter and exercise helps you to think,surely exercising to music can turn you into a clever person.

"Exercise seems to cause good changes in the nerve system (神经系统) and these changes may improve the learning ability of people with heart disease," said the psychologist Charles Emery,who led the study."And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding.We just wanted to put the two results together," he added.
The volunteers said they felt better after exercising with or without music.But their improvement on the test doubled after listening to music during exercise.The study has shown that music can be good for health and education.It helps reduce stress and sadness,relax or sleep better,wake up the body and improve memory and thoughts.

(3)词义猜测题。根据第三段And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding.(听音乐被认为可以____理解。)可知此处意为听音乐被认为可以增进理解。所以划线词与C项同义。故选C。
(4)主旨大意题。根据第一段If music makes you smarter and exercise helps you to think,surely exercising to music can turn you into a clever person.(如果音乐让你变得更聪明,锻炼帮助你思考,那么随着音乐锻炼肯定能把你变成一个聪明的人。)及全文可知这篇短文主要讲述了音乐对智力的提升和运动对思维的帮助,结合起来进行运动可以使人变得更聪明。故选C。
这篇短文主要讲述了音乐对智力的提升和运动对思维的帮助,结合起来进行运动可以使人变得更聪明。俄亥俄州立大学的科学家们对33名心脏病手术后康复的志愿者进行了实验,发现那些在运动时听意大利音乐家安东尼奥•维瓦尔第的《四季》时,他们在语言能力测试中的表现要比没有音乐时好得多。这种音乐还被用于医疗领域,用于治疗因头部受伤而引起的疼痛,因为它的节奏适中。心理学家查尔斯•埃默里领导了这项研究,他说:"运动似乎会对神经系统产生良好的变化,这些变化可能会提高心脏病患者的学习能力。而听音乐被认为可以增强理解力。我们只是想把这两个结果结合起来。"志愿者们表示,无论是有还是没有音乐,他们在运动后感觉都更好。但是在听音乐的情况下,他们在测试中的进步翻了一番。这项研究表明音乐对健康和教育有益处,它有助于减轻压力和悲伤,放松或更好地入睡,唤醒身体,改善记忆和思维。自从20世纪50年代初以来,科学家们一直在研究运动配乐对学习和理解的影响。一项研究表明,经常运动时听莫扎特的音乐的学生在智商测试中得分更高。重要考试即将来临,你的父母可能不会允许你听音乐或者参加运动,但也许现在你有了充分的理由与他们讨论这个问题。
