解析

试题分析：2020年我们的生活会怎样？谁也不知道。但是我们可以在这些方面预测一下。1.未来人们用什么语言？很可能是英语和汉语；2.干净的淡水会很贵；3.学生们会在家里和全世界的学生一起通过因特网学习；机器人会做很多家务；4.人们有可能会生活和工作在海里。电脑和手机会随身带。
小题1:根据English should still be the most popular language, but Chinese should be the second. Now, many foreign people are studying Chinese A their second language.可知，未来英语应该是最普及的语言，其次应该是汉语。因为现在许多外国人在把汉语当做第二语言来学习。所以填as意思是：作为；根据They will stay at home and study online. Students from all over the world may study together B the Internet.可知，来自世界各地的学生会在因特网上一起学习。所以填on意思是：在……上。
小题2:根据We will haveto save water and pay more for clean water.可知，我们将不得不节约水、更关注清洁的水。因为:许多河流都消失了，水和石油一样贵。所以翻译是：许多河流将消失，水和石油会一样贵。
小题3:根据②Lots of danger housework will be done by them.（许多危险的家务活会让机器人做。）可知，housework是名词，前面应该用形容词修饰。所以把名词，danger改成形容词，dangerous.。
小题4:根据③computer, the, answers, will, all, the, to, their, people, problems, give.可知，每个人带着一个袖珍电脑，这个电脑会给人们回答所有问题的答案。所以排序是The computer will give people the answers to all their problems. 或：The computer will give people all the answers to their problems.。
小题5:根据What will our world be like in 2020?和全文的预测可知，本文主要讨论的是未来的生活。所以选C. the life in the future。

Music not only gives you something to sing and dance to, but also can make you
feel happier. Scientists say that music can help to relax people’s mind and even help
to relieve（痛苦） pain. How does music work its magic? It is the fact that music
can adjust(调节) our mood（心情）. Recently, there is a scientific research toback up
what we have always known about music. The studies have shown that when people
are excited or happy they are more helpful. The opposite (相反的情况)happens when
people feel aggressive（好斗的） or under stress. The use of music can influence how
helpful people can be.
Dr. Adrian North made a study with 256 university students.Half the group took exercise
in the gymnasium listening to music which can bring happiness and the other half exercised
to aggressive music. When leaving the gym, the students were asked to hand out flyers（传单） in support of the local disabled athlete’s foundation（残疾运动员基金会）.
The results showed that nearly half of the group that listened to happy music were willing to (愿意) hand out flyers. But less than 20% in the group that heard the aggressive music were willing to do so. This study suggests that our choice of music can influence our willingness to cooperate(合作). While a study also shows that productivity (生产效率) can be increased with the right choice of background music in the workplace. As music stimulates(刺激)worker’s mind, job satisfaction is often positively influenced. Other studies have shown that workers who are in a good mood have more job satisfaction than those in a bad mood.
These studies show that music can have a powerful influence on a person’s ability to cooperate. Moods have a direct influence(直接影响) on cooperation and job satisfaction. These factors also have a direct relationship to the success of a business.
小题1:What do scientists say about music ? _____________________________.
小题2:The phrase “back up” , Paragraph 1 most probably means “support”, doesn’t it ?
_________.
小题3:Why do people use the right choice of background music in the workplace?_______ .
