However studies have also shown that music, especially certain tones can reduce stress. Music can change brainwave patterns, deepen breathing, and bring on a totally stressfree and more open mindset（心態(tài)）. Using music to relax when considering a particular problem may not only raise your mood, but also could help you reach that ahamoment and find a solution. Music has also been shown not only to make you feel good, but also, to be a great motivator. For example, during exercise, listening to music can keep you going, or get you to exercise more by helping you to ignore negative feelings of tiredness and focus on the pleasurable feelings you get from being absorbed in the music. Music is mainly used to record emotion. When we listen to a piece of music we share the artist39。s feelings on a visceral（本來的）level. That can be sad, and who among us hasn39。t put on a painful love song to share in the misery after a bad breakup? On the contrary, we can share in the delight of songs of joy and happiness, or any song or piece of music that reminds us of a particular happy time in our past.

When we listen to a piece of music we share the artist39。s feelings on a visceral（本來的）level. That can be sad, and who among us hasn39。t put on a painful love song to share in the misery after a bad breakup?可知音樂是用來記錄情感的，聽悲傷的音樂可以讓人回憶起悲傷的經(jīng)歷。故答案選B。（4）考查主旨大意題。根據(jù)每一段的第一句話music, especially certain tones can reduce stress；Music has also been shown not only to make you feel good, but also, to be a great motivator.；Music is mainly used to record ，故答案選D。【點評】主旨大意題解題技巧：1．首先要找出文章的主題句(Topic Sentence)，即中心思想，其他句子則為支撐句或擴展句(Developing Details)，是用來闡述、解釋、支持或發(fā)展主題句所表達的主題思想的。2．在許多文段中，沒有可以概括全段意義的主題句，必須根據(jù)文章中所提供的事實細節(jié)，進行全面分析，然后歸納成一般概念。但必須注意：既不能以偏概全，也不能在概括時過于寬泛，要恰如其分。8．Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. The history of the world is but the biography (傳記) of great men, argued Thomas Carlyle, the advocate of what has e to be known as the Great Man Theory of History. This theory suggests that the broader movements and outline of history all go back to the leadership of great individuals who had unique influence on their times. Whether or not Carlyle39。s theory proves true is debatable, but that certain individuals cast long shadows is not. As one who is entrusted with a leadership position, I find it profitable to read of others who have led. Wherever you find me, you39。ll likely find a good biography nearby. Why is this the case? First, I find good biographies fascinating. I39。ll occasionally read a novel, but I39。ve never been overly drawn to fiction. I have found myself unable to sleep while in the struggle of the Battle of Britain in William Manchester39。s The Last Lion. For me, not to read biographies would rob me of pleasure in my life. Second, I find good biographies informative. A good biographer tells not only the story of a person, but also of their times. Reading a good biography is like wandering through an intellectual shopping mall. The first store is what drew you there, but you will be pleasantly surprised along the way at what other items grab your attention. You39。ll find no better account of the British Empire at its peak than the opening chapters of Manchester39。s Visions of Glory, volume one of his The Last Lion. Strictly speaking, a biography is but a slice of history. Third, I find good biographies relaxing. Winston Churchill once noted a man who works with his hands should have a hobby that engages his mind, and a man who works with his mind should have a hobby that engages his hands. Another way to apply Churchill39。s saying is to bine technical, peninhand vocational reading with leisurely biographical reading. Indeed, few things are more relaxing to me than winding down the evening and entering into another world. This is why I love reading good biographies, and why I pity the person who neglects them. Don39。t be counted among their number.（1）What is implied in the first paragraph? A.The author finds Carlyle39。s theory undebatable.B.Carlyle believes great men alone cannot create history.C.It is debatable whether one should read great men39。s biographies.D.The author agrees that history is greatly influenced by certain men.（2）What does the underlined phrase other items in the third paragraph refer to? A.good biographies
