阅读下列短文，按要求完成读写任务
(2009年北京
卷)When students and parents are asked to rate subjects accor ding to their importance，
the arts are unavoidably at the bottom of the list.Music is nice，people seem to say，
but not important.Too often it is viewed as mere entertainment ，but certainly not an education priority(优
先)．This view is shortsighted.In fact，
music education is beneficial and important for all students. Music tells us who we are.Because music is an expression of th e beings who create it，it reflects their thinking and values，
as well as the social environment it came from.Rock music repr esents a life style just as surely as does a Schubert song.The ja zz influence that George Gershwin and other musicians introdu ced into their music is obviously American because it came fro m American musical traditions.Music expresses our character a nd values.It gives us identity as a society.
Music provides a kind of perception(感
知)that cannot be acquired any other way.Science can explain how the sun rises and sets.The arts explore the emotive(情感的)meaning of the same phenomenon.We need every possible way to discover and respond to our world for one simple but po werful reason：No one way can get it all.
The arts are forms of thought as powerful in what they communi cate as mathematical and scientific symbols.They are ways we human beings “talk” to each other.They are the language of civil ization through which we express our fears，our curiosities，our hungers，our discoveries，
our hopes.The arts are ways we give form to our ideas and ima gination so that they can be shared with others.When we do not give children access to an important way of expressing themse lves such as music，
we take away from them the meanings that music expresses. Science and technology do not tell us what it means to be hum
an.The arts do.Music is an important way we express human su ffering，celebration，
the meaning and value of peace and love.So music education i s far more necessary than people seem to realize.

The brightest object in the evening sky after the sun and the moon isn't a star, but a planet. It's Venus，
our closest neighbor and the second planet from the sun.
Venus is so bright that you can see it both at night and in the early morning. This caused some confusion for ancient Egyptia n (埃及的）and Greek (希腊
的)star observers. Because they saw Venus at two different tim es, they thought it was two different planets.
What makes Venus so bright? Huge clouds, 20 miles thick, co mpletely surround it and reflect 75% of the light from the sun th at strike them.
For a long time, these clouds caused Venus to be a great my
stery (谜）
to the world's astronomers. If, like other clouds, the ones on Ve nus were made up of water vapors (水汽），
could there not be life hiding beneath them on the planet? Were there “Venusians (金星
人)” waiting to communicate with us on Earth?
It was an exciting thought, but on that the Mariner recently lan ded to rest. The Mariner thoroughly examined Venus and its at mosphere, only to find that the cloud cover was made mostly of deadly carbon dioxide (二氧化碳）
gas. The atmospheric pressure was 15 to 22 times greater than on Earth, which further disproved the theory of life on Venus. A nd what did the Mariner find under the clouds? A world of great mountains and smooth areas, dry as a bone. The temperature i s about 900°F. That's hot.
Although the greatest mystery has been solved, there are still others waiting for us on Venus. Why does Venus rotate (自转）so slowly? What is the inside of Venus like? And most importan t of all, why is there no water on Venus? If, as it was thought, it was formed about the same time as our planet, it should have water.
These questions and others may some day be answered. Unt il then, Venus will continue to be the brightest mystery in the sk y.
60. Venus is very bright because ________ .
A. the clouds surrounding it take in 75% of the sunlight striking t hem
B. the clouds surrounding it throw back 3/4 of the sunlight striki ng them
C. 75% of the clouds surrounding it are made up of water vapor
D. 3/4 of the clouds surrounding it are made up of carbon dioxid
e gas
61. "The Mariner" is probably the name of _______.
A. an astronomer
B. a planet
C. a star
D. a spaceship
62. From the passage we can tell that _________ .
A. astronomers still wonder whether Venus is as old as the Eart h
B. Venusians are trying to get in touch with us on Earth
C. there are many volcanoes and other natural wonders on Ven us
D. whether there is life on Venus is still a question
63. What section of a newspaper is the passage probably taken from?
A. Scientific Technology
B. Science Fictions
C. Brief News
D. Science & Discovery
