You probably know you should say "please" and "thank you" at restaurants. You probably know the rules of a library. You know you should respect and be nice to your classmates. But do you have music manners? Keep It Down! You have to notice the volume of your music. You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it. Some people might even get angry. Usually, when you play the music loud on an MP3 player, other people can't hear the words of the song. They just hear a loud sound. No one wants to listen to this. Very loud music can also be bad for your ears. So even if you are alone when listening to your MP3 players, you shouldn't turn it up too high. Take Them Off! You need to know when to turn your MP3 off and put it away. Libraries and schools don't allow MP3 players. There are other places, like museums, that don't have rules, but it would be rude to have your MP3 player on. Sometimes, it doesn't make sense(无意义） to listen on your MP3 player at event. Why would you listen to music at a play, a movie or a sporting event? You would miss what is going on and others would wonder why you even came. Take One Out! Once in a while it's okay just to take out one earphone and not the other. Imagine you are listening on your MP3 player when someone asks you the way. It would not be rude to take out one earphone, tell him the way, and put back the earphone and continue listening. You can also do this when you order food at a fast-food restaurant or when you answer the telephone. It's Your Choice! There are times when you need to decide what is best. For example, some people can listen to music on their MP3 players when reading books, while others think it is disturbing. In cases like this, you need to do what seems right for you. 1.The underlined word "volume" in Paragraph 2 probably means "_________." A. the type of music B. the length of a song C. the amount of a sound D. the color of an MP3 player 2.We should turn down the music when we are alone because loud music_________. A. may annoy others B. will make us tired C. is bad for MP3 players D. can hurt our ears 3.If we listen to our MP3 player at a play, _________. A. the theatre won't allow it B. we may miss part of the play C. others won't hear the play well D. the actors will get angry 4.The main idea of this passage is about _________.

What was your favorite sport during your childhood? Maybe running around the playground or jumping rope for hours would bring you pleasure. At that time you weren’t thinking of health, you were just thinking of entertainment(娱乐). But in this age of high-tech home equipment, the simple joy of jumping rope has been forgotten. I think rediscovering it probably will give you a total-body exercise. Although considered an excellent form of exercise, jumping rope has never been widely accepted because of two reasons. First, most people consider jumping rope to be an excellent form of cardiovascular (心血管的) exercise, but they also believe that it is simply too difficult. In other words, they don’t think they’ll be able to continue jumping for the near 20 minutes in order to achieve a beneficial physical effect. Second, many people regard it as a little boring and overly repetitive —not as something fun or enjoyable. As a matter of fact, jumping rope can be great fun as long as you find proper ways to practice it. Instead of doing the usual two-foot bounce(跳) over and over again, players good at rope-jumping often change their pattern every 10 or 20 jumps. A single bounce, a double –bounce, a skip, a knee-up, side swings, as well as a variety of other easy-to-learn free-style rope-jumping . Nowadays researchers are discovering that jumping rope also prepares the brain for learning. It is an exercise allowing both brain hemispheres（半球）to perform equally to each other . In a word, jumping rope can be a life-long activity requiring little equipment, time and space, yet leading to a much healthier life. 1.One reason that can explain why rope jumping has not spread widely is that_____. A. it is believed to be boring and repetitive B. it is too difficult for people to learn to jump C. it benefits the cardiovascular system D. it requires little equipment, time and space 2.The first sentence in Paragraph 3 implies that in rope jumping . A. there is only one proper way to follow B. the usual way should not be used again C. the easiest way is always the best one D. there are different kinds of ways to follow 3.According to the researchers, jumping rope . A. only prepares the brain for learning B. is suitable for students only C. helps both brain hemispheres work together D. can be dangerous for old people 4.What is the author’s attitude towards rope jumping? A. He strongly argues against it. B. He is sitting on the fence of it . C. He is for it. D. He knows little about it .
