B．musicmannersC．musicplayers D．MP3earphones答案與解析本文介紹了一些有關音樂方面的禮儀規則。1．A詞義揣測題。從文中其次段“Youshouldnotplayyourmusicsoloudthateveryonearoundyoucanhearit.”可知，你不應當把你的音樂開得太大，以致你四周的每個人都能聽到。再結合本段句首小標題“Keepitdown！”可知這里volume指的是“音量”。故選A。2．B細微環節理解題。從其次段中“Veryloudmusiccanalsobebadforyourears.”可知，太大聲的音樂對你的耳朵影響不好。緊接著下文就提出“SoevenifyouarealonewhenlisteningtoyourMP3players,youshouldn'tturnituptoohigh.”，由此可知即使是獨自一人聽音樂時，也不要把聲音調太大。故選B。3．D細微環節理解題。依據第三段“Whywouldyoulistentomusicataplay,amovieorasportingevent?Youwouldmisswhatisgoingonandotherswouldwonderwhyyouevencame.”可知，假如你在劇院聽MP3，你會錯過正在進行的演出，并且別人也會懷疑你為什么要來呢。故選D。4．B主旨大意題。從第一段中“Butdoyouhavemusicmanners？”可知，接下來介紹的是有關音樂方面的禮儀規則，故選B。BWithalltheresponsibilitieswefaceinourdailylife,it'softenhardtogetagoodnight'srest.Theproblemreallyliesinthestressthatmanyofusexperience.Stressrobsyouoftherestthatyouneedbyputtingyouinastateofstressandworry.Thereare,ofcourse,somemethodsthatcanhelpyourelax,butonlyafewofthemgiveyouagoodnight'ssleep.Oneofthemismusicforsleep.Sleepmusicisnotjustforencouragingrelaxation,italsocanbeusedforvarioussituations.Wanttohavearelaxingeveningbyyourself?Practiseyoga(瑜伽)inacomfortableenvironment?Thinkoversomethingimportant?Thenputonyourfavouritesleepmusic.Sleepmusicisnotonlyfitforadults,buthasalsobeenknowntobegoodforchildren.Soothingmusichelpsyourchildrengotosleepmoreeasily.Massagetherapists(按摩治療師)canalsobenefitfromusingsoothingmusicforsleep.Thisallowsclients(客戶)tobenefitmorefromthemassage.Forexample,massagetherapistscanprovidetherelaxationofthebodythroughtheirtechniques,andthemusichelpsclientsrelaxtheirminds,helpingthemtorelaxdeeperandfeelmorerefreshedafterthemassage.You'llneverrunoutofsleepmusicastherearesomeartistsandcompaniesthatmakesleepmusic.Choosingtherightmusicisimportantaswell.Likemostmusicthatyoucanfindandbuyinstores,sleepmusichasdifferentstyles,sounds,andsubjects.Therearethosewhoarespecificallyforrelaxation,whilesomeareintendedtohelpyougotosleep.Thegreatthingaboutsleepmusicisthatitwillhesomethingyou'llbeusingformonths,evenyearstocome.Ifyouwantadeeperrelaxationandbettersleep,givesomesoothingmusicforsleepatry.5．Whatist
