But things have changed. Nw, Han is ne f the mst imprtant players in China’s team. “I can’t wait t play. Life is shrt. Yu must make the mst ut f it,”Han always says like that.
Han wants every pssible hnr that a ftball player can get — an Asian Cup, a Wrld Cup and an Olympic medal. She has always been gd at sprts, especially swimming and hrizntal bars. At schl, she was the fastest in the 60m and 100m.

Yu have prbably heard f the Mzart effect. It’s the idea that if children r even babies listen t music cmpsed f Mzart, they will becme mre intelligent. A quick Internet search shws plenty f prducts t assist yu in the task. Whatever yur age, there are CDs and bks t help yu taste the pwer f Mzart’s music, but when it cmes t scientific evidence that it can make yu mre clever, the picture is mre mixed.
The phrase “the Mzart effect” was made up in 1991, but it was a study described tw years later in the jurnal Nature that arused real media and public interest abut the idea that listening t classical music smehw imprves the brain. It is ne f thse ideas that sund reasnable. Mzart was n dubt a genius himself; his music is cmplex and there is a hpe that if we listen t enugh f it, we’ll becme mre intelligent.
The idea tk ff, with thusands f parents playing Mzart t their children, and in 1998 Zell Miller, the Gvernr f the state f Gergia in the USA, even asked fr mney t be set aside in the state budget s that every newbrn baby culd be sent a CD f classical music. It was nt just babies and children wh were expsed t (接触) Mzart’s music n purpse, even an Italian farmer prudly explained that the cws were played Mzart three times a day t help them t prduce better milk.
I’ll leave the debate n the effect n milk prductin t farmers, but what abut the evidence that listening t Mzart makes peple mre intelligent? Mre research was carried ut but an analysis f 16 different studies cnfirmed that listening t music des lead t a temprary (临时的) imprvement in the ability t handle shapes mentally, but the benefits are shrt-lived and it desn’t make us mre intelligent.

A. Mzart cmpsed many musical pieces fr children.
B. Children listening t Mzart will be mre intelligent.
C. There are few prducts n the Internet abut Mzart’s music.
D. There is little scientific evidence t supprt the Mzart effect.
9. The underlined phrase in Paragraph 3 suggests that ________.
A. Peple were strngly against the idea.
B. the idea was accepted by many peple.
C. Mzart played an imprtant part in peple’s life.
D. the US gvernment helped prmte the idea.
10. What’s the authr’s attitude twards the Mzart effect?
A. Supprtive.B. Objective.C. Dubtful.D. Psitive.

Fr sme peple, nthing beats a lng walk n a sandy beach. But there’s n denying that it’s nt as easy r as fast t get arund n the beach as it is n a rad r a sidewalk. But why is it s hard t walk n sand?
The prblem with sand is that it’s sft; yu “sink in” at each step. This frces yu t use 2.1 t 2. 7 times mre energy with every step yu take. Anther idea is that peple walk mre difficultly n sft than they d n hard surfaces, a study fund. The researchers cmpared hw peple walked n fam (沫) and hard surfaces by analyzing the frces under their feet and hw much xygen each persn cnsumed. They fund that walking n sft surfaces, such as sand, mud and snw, caused peple t take lnger steps — actins that use mre energy than walking n a hard surface.
But as experienced beach walkers knw, there’s a way t make it easier t walk n sand: Just add water, When sand is wet, it becmes mre cmpact (紧密), and walking n it is mre similar t walking n hard surface. In ther wrds, it’s much easier t crss a beach by walking alng the shreline, where the waves rll in and ut. This is a balance thugh; t much water culd make the sand sft nce again. If water isn’t an ptin, there is anther way t make walking n sand easier — increasing yur surface area. This culd be accmplished by wearing shes.
Althugh it’s mre difficult, there are sme gd reasns t exercise n sand. The impact frces are lwer n sand than n hard surface. Research suggests that walking acrss sand is much easier n yur jints (关节) and muscles, especially cmpared with an unfrgiving surface such as cncrete (混凝土). This means sand is a better surface fr helping athletes recver mre quickly frm wrkuts.
12 Why is the questin raised in the first paragraph?
A. T shw prblems.B. T call up readers’ memries.
C T invite readers t answer it.D. T draw readers’ attentin t the tpic.
13. Hw can yu walk n sand mre easily?
A. By putting n shes.B. By taking lnger steps.
C. By walking in the water.D. By using special breath methds.
14. Which f the fllwing surfaces is unsuitable fr athletes’ training?
A. Sand.B. Cncrete.
C. Fam.D. Snw.
15. What may be the best title fr the text?
A. Tips fr Beach VacatinB. All Kinds f Sprts n the Sand
C. Why Is It S Hard t Walk n Sand?D. Where Are We With the Sand Research?
