Since it was announced on Monday that 84-year-old Tu had become the first Chinese citizen to win this international prize,her former home in the old town of Ningbo,Zhejiang province,has attracted visi-tors,especially parents and their children-even though it is not open to the public.

7.Muzak
       The next time you go into a bank,a store,or a supermarket,stop and listen.What do you hear?(71)CIt's similar to the music you listen to,but it's not exactly the same.That's because this music was especially designed to relax you,or to give you extra energy.Sometimes you don't even realize the music is playing,but you react to the music anyway.
       Quiet background music used to be called"elevator (电梯) music"because we often heard it in elevators.But lately we hear it in more and more places,and it has a new name"Muzak".About one-third of the people in America listen to"Muzak"everyday.The music plays for 15 minutes at a time,with short pauses in between.It is always more lively between ten and eleven in the morning,and between three and four in the afternoon,when people are more tired.(72)B
       If you listen to Muzak carefully,you will probably recognize the names of many of the songs.Some musicians or songwriters don't want their songs to be used as Muzak,but others are happy when their songs are chosen.Why?(73)F
       Music is often played in public places because it is designed to make people feel less lonely when they are in an airport or a hotel.It has been proven that Muzak does what it is designed to do.Tired office workers suddenly have more energy when they hear the pleasant sound of Muzak in the background.(74)D Supermarket shoppers buy 38 percent more groceries.
       (75)A.They say it's boring to hear the same songs all the time.But other people enjoy hearing Muzak in public places.They say it helps them relax and feel calm.One way or another,Muzak affects everyone.Some farmers even say their cows give more milk when they hear Muzak!

A.Some people don't like Muzak.
B.The music gives them extra energy.
C.Music is playing in the background.
D.Factory workers produce 13 percent more.
E.Muzak tends to help people understand music better.
F.They ge t as much as $4 million a year if their songs are used.

4.What is the porpose of readig or studying?If you can't remember what you read or study,it will be a waste of time.(36)GOne useful aid that does help you remember what you study is to have a specific purpose or reason for reading.
Why does a clerk in a store go away when your reply to her offer to help is,"No,thank you.I'm just looking."?Both you and she know that if you aren't sure what you want,you are not likely to find it.But suppose you say instead,"Yes,thank you.I want a pair of sun glasses."She says,"Right this way,please."It's quite the same with your studying.If you choose a book,"just looking"for nothing in particular,you are likely to get just that-nothing.(37)FYour reasons will vary; they will include reading or studying"to find out more about","to understand the reasons for"and"to find out how".
(38)ABefore you start to study,you say to yourself something like this,"I want to know why Stephen Vincent Benet happened to write about America".Because you know why you are reading or studying,you relate the information to your purpose and remember it better.
Reading is not one single activity.(39)DAs you read,you take in ideas rapidly and accurately.But at the same time you express your own ideas to yourself as you react to what you read.You have a kind of mental conversation with the author.
This additional process of thinking about what you read includes evaluating it,relating it to what you already know,and using it for your own purposes (40)BOne part of critical reading,as you have discovered,is distinguishing between facts and opinions.Facts can be checked by evidence.Opinions are one's own personal reactions.Another part of critical reading is judging sources.Still another part is drawing accurate inferences.

A.This is an effective studying way.
B.In other words,a good reader is a critical reader.
C.You remember better when you know what you're reading.
D.At least two important processes go on at the same time.
E.It is important for students to have a positive attitude to their study.
F.But if you do know what you want,you are almost sure to get it.
G.Perhaps  you have already discovered some good ways to keep yourself from forgetting.
