Tim, 20

When I was a teenager, I went to Brittany with my parents. We lived in a lovely house, and the weather was great. But I was 17, and I didn’t want to be on holiday with my parents. I wanted to be with my friends. We went to the beach every day and we went to a wonderful seafood restaurant for my birthday. But I was not happy. What really made me angry was that my parents let my older sister, who was 19, go to Spain with her friends.

Gabriela, 28

I’m from Rome and the summer here is really hot. So last year my husband and I decided to go to Sweden. We booked (預(yù)訂) a 10-day holiday in Stockholm, and the temperature there in the summer is normally about 20OC. But when we got to Stockholm, it was 35OC! We didn’t want to go shopping or visit museums or do anything — we were too hot. We just sat in hotels and argued all day. We didn’t need to go to Sweden to do that!

Olivia, 26

Three years ago, I went to the Seychelles alone. My travel agent told me that it was always sunny. But when I arrived there, the weather was terrible. It was cloudy and very windy. To pass the time, I decided to take a diving course (潛水課). But I got very upset when I went under the water. I spent two boring and expensive weeks there.

I’m living in St Amand Montrond, France now. There are hardly any cars on the street, and it’s quite different from the busy streets of London. Since arriving in St Amand Montrond two weeks ago, I have traveled around the town a lot on foot and by bike.

There is a river in the center of the town. The sides of the river are full of tall trees and colorful flowers. There are different walks that people can take along the river, but I haven’t tried them. However, I took an evening ride through the town last Saturday. It was very interesting. I love going around the town by bike, and I get to know more about the history of the town. The best part of it is that it is free!

The weather in St Amand Montrond is great. The great weather has allowed me to enjoy the beautiful scenery (風(fēng)景) here. I have walked a lot every day. It is great to be outside. Although walking does not seem like a typical sport, it is a great way to keep fit. St Amand Montrond has great walking clubs, and they organize walks on certain weekends. There will be a walk this Sunday, and my friends and I have decided to have a try.

Since I arrived in France, I have become a lot more active (活躍的). Keeping fit seems to be easier when the sun is shining.

Is there a connection between music and language? According to recent studies, the answer is yes: 1.Here, we look at two examples

A recent study by researcher Kraus shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a person's hearing ability.2.The people in the first group were musicians, while those in the second group had no musical training. The musicians were able to hear the talking person more clearly.

3.Think about violinists in an orchestra (管弦樂團(tuán)). When the violinists play with the group, they hear their own instrument and many others, too. But the violinists must listen closely to what they are playing, and pay no attention to the other sounds. In this way, musicians are able to focus on certain sounds, even in a room with lots of noise.

Schlaug, a doctor at Harvard Medical School, works with stroke (中風(fēng)) patients. Because of their illness, these people cannot say their names, addresses, or other information normally. However, they can still sing.4.Why does this work? Schlaug isn't sure. Music seems to make different parts of the brain work, including the damaged (損壞的) parts. This might help patients to use that part of the brain again.

Music improves concentration (注意力), memory, listening skills, and our overall language abilities.5.Playing an instrument or singing can help us do better in school and keep our brain sharp (敏銳的) as we get older. Music is not only enjoyable, it's also good for us in many other ways.

A. It can even help sick people get better.

B Music helps people solve some hearing problems.

C. Music improves certain language abilities in the brain.

D. The violinists develop their memories by playing the violin.

E Musicians hear better because they learn to pay attention to certain sounds.

F. Schlaug was surprised to find that singing words helped his patients to speak.

G. In his study two groups of people listened to a person talking in a noisy room.
