  "Without music, life would be a mistake (错误), "a famous German Nietzsche said over a century ago. 

 Music is a big part of our lives. But some years ago, some US schools cut music classes to save money. For example, some Chicago schools fired (解雇) over 1, 000 teachers. Among them, 30% of the teachers taught art or music. In fact, this is not just a problem in the US. In other countries, such as China and the UK, music classes are not as important as ones like science, math and history. That's because people regard music as a very important life skill. Many students are busy with their study, so parents and students pay attention to(关注) the most important subjects they think.

 But learning music is good in many ways. When playing music, you need different skills to work together. It is not as easy as it looks. For example, when playing the piano, people see music notes and decode (解码) them in their minds. They also use their fingers to make sounds. You need to do all these things at the same time. 

 Music has a special connection with science. You can see that many scientists are good at music: Einstein played the violin, and German scientist Max Planck was good at playing the piano. 

(    )21．Why did some schools in the US cut music classes?

A．Because students weren't interested in music.

B．Because they were too difficult to learn.

C．Because there were too many music teachers in the US.

D．Because the schools wanted to save money.

(    )22．The underlined word "them" in Paregraph 2 refers to____. 

A．public schools                    B．fired teachers  

C．parents in Chicago D．students in Chicago

(    )23．What's the main idea of Paragraph 3?

A．We need different skills to work together while we are playing music.

B．Playing the piano needs people to use fingers to make sounds.

C．We need to decode music notes while we are playing music.

D．Playing the piano needs many skills.

(    )24．How many scientists who are good at playing music are mentioned(被提及) in this passage?

A．One.       B．Two.      C．Three.     D．Four.

(    )25．What's the writer's idea according to this passage?

A．Music is as easy as it looks.

B．Music classes are not as important as other subjects.

C．Music is a big part of our lives.

D．Music isn't a very important life skill for us.

 Do you know square dancing? It's a special kind of dancing only in China. In the morning and evening, many Chinese women, young and old, dance with music in the square. 　26．     　

 Are you interested in their dancing? Do you want to join them to dance? 

 It's interesting that we want to dance when we hear wonderful music. Even little children will start jumping up and down with music. 　27．     　 But the reason (原因) is not important. 

 Scientists say that animals dance, too. 　28．     　 The "dancing" of animals gives messages to other animals. But when people dance, they express feelings(抒发感情) about life and love. 　29．     　 For one thing, dancing is good for your body. It makes heart work and makes your breath fast. It also makes you use your arms and your legs. Go dancing often, and you can keep healthy. 　30．     　 This is another important point about dancing. It gives you a chance to express your feelings and feel better about yourself. If you are angry about something, dancing helps those feelings go away.
