（共10小题，计20分）
A
Every morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work. Every evening my mother looks through magazines at home. And every night, I look at the posters on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep. Can we imagine life without paper or print?
Paper was first created about 2, 000 years ago, and has been made from silk, cotton, bamboo and since the 19th century from wood. People learned to write words on paper to make a book. But in those days, books could only be produced one at a time by hand. As a result, they were expensive and rare. And because there weren’t many books, few people learned to read.
Then printing was invented in China. When printing was developed greatly at the beginning of the 11th century, books could be produced more quickly and cheaply. As a result, more people learned to read. After that, knowledge and ideas spread quickly.
Today information can be received online, and downloaded from the Internet, besides being found in books, and information can be kept on CD-ROMs or machines such as MP3 players.
Computers are already used in classrooms, and newspapers and magazines can already be read online. So will books be replaced by computers one day? No, I don’t think the Yao Ming poster on my bedroom wall will ever be replaced by a computer two metres high!

3.Why were books expensive and rare before the invention of printing?
A.People could not read.

C.People could not find silk, cotton or bamboo.
D.People could only produce books one at a time by hand.
4.What happened after books became cheaper?

Do you have the experience of taking music lessons against your wishes? Perhaps you have complained about it because you thought it took you much playtime. But now you’d better thank your parents for their time and money spent on your musical training. A recent study suggests music lessons can make children have better memories than their peers (同龄人).
The Canadian study showed that after one year of musical training, children did better on a memory test than those who didn’t take music lessons.
The researchers made the children aged between 4 and 6 into two groups — one group of children took music lessons outside school, and the other didn’t take any
musical training. In one year, they took four tests in different times. The results showed brain (大脑) development changes at least every four months.
The children taking music lessons not only did better in musical listening but also made faster progress in other ways, such as reading, writing, math and IQ.
People say music is the good medicine (良药) for a broken heart. Now it seems music can also help us to improve our memories. We are sure to find more and more in the wonderful world of music.
