To most people, noisepollution is a jet flying over their head. For one Spanish woman, it is aneighbor playing the piano. The woman has taken her neighbor to court. Now shewants to send her neighbor to prison for over seven years on the charges ofpsychological damage and noise pollution.
In a country known forits noisiness, the case has raised eyebrows. Neighbors often complain aboutstreet noise in Spain, but people seeking prison time for someone practicingthe piano is unheard of. At the trial, sonia Bosom says she has been sufferingnoise pollution up to now due to the practice sessions of Laia Martin, wholives below her. Martin, 27, didn’t admit that she played at home that often,saying she took regular classes in other towns and mostly practiced at home onthe weekends.
On the first day of thetrial, the newspaper reported that Bosom told the court she now hated pianos somuch that she couldn’t even stand seeing them in a film.
Bosom says years ofhearing constant playing has caused her "psychological injury".Medical reports show she has suffered from a variety of problems, includinginsomnia (失眠), anxiety, andpanic attacks.
She says tests by localauthorities have found that the sound levels made by the piano are up to 10decibels (分贝) higher than thelimit. City authorities have asked the family several times to either stop thepiano playing or soundproof (隔音)the room. The family told the court they carried out soundproofing work twicebut the complaints continued.
The court hasn’t made afinal decision. A spokeswoman says the trial will end before May.

Winters are long andunforgiving in North Dakota. The winter of 1996 was especially brutal. It was adifficult time in my own life too. A neck injury had kept me flat in bed fornearly a year. "Just in time for Easter," my husband, Dick, said. Buthow could I feel the joy when the snow was four feet deep and I had months ofpainful physical treatment ahead?
I was doing the dishesone day, feeling hopeless when there was a tap against the glass. It was abranch of the troublesome cottonwood (棉白杨). Back in the fallof 1979, it was a new subdivision (细枝)then. The peoplewho’d briefly occupied the house before us had placed the pipe from the pumpnext to it. The earth was so wet that the poor thing had fallen down, most ofits bare root system pointing skyward, blowing hopelessly back and forth in thecold wind. Dick decided to pull it out one day, but I protested.
"Look at how hardit’s trying!" I said, pointing to the way it strongly kept hold of theearth. "It deserves a chance."
Dick borrowed sometools. We packed dry soil around the tree and put up some stakes (桩)into the ground, making it stand upright. That winter was still terrible.Surprisingly, in the spring my "rescue stick" put forth a few leaves,then with lots of branches. By the 1990s that little stick was a giant,towering over the house.
Now the tapping at thewindow continued, louder as the wind picked up, almost as though to tell me to lookup. At last, I did. I caught my breath. In the window against the icy blue sky,thousands and thousands of fresh red buds were waving in the wind.
The tree was burstingwith life and I had a wonderful Easter.
24. What is the meaningof the underlined word "brutal" in Paragraph 1 ?[来源:学科网ZXXK]

25. How did Dick rescuethe new subdivision?

26. The author writesthe last paragraph mainly to .
A. inform us of thecurrent condition of his cottonwood
B. imply that he’d spentthe hardest time and felt hopeful
C. tell us that the treehad survived from the awful winter
D. suggest what he wasgoing to do for the coming festival
27. Which of thefollowing can serve as the main idea of the passage?
A. A friend in need is afriend indeed. B. There is no garden without its weeds.

here is life, there is hope.

Do you ever pull your phone out of yourpocket, thinking it is vibrating (振动), only to find thatit isn’t?
This phenomenon, which scientists call "phantom (幻觉的) phone vibration", is very common. Around80% of people surveyed say they have imagined their phones vibrating when theywere actually still.
So, what leads to this universal behavior?According to the BBC, the explanation lies in your brain’s ability to discoversignals from the outside world.
When your phone is in your pocket, thereare two possible states: it is either vibrating or not. Meanwhile, you alsohave two possible states of mind: the judgment that the phone is vibrating, orthat it isn’t.
Ideally, you match the four statescorrectly. However, sometimes your brain decides that the consequences ofmissing a call are more serious than a "false alarm". Therefore, youbecome more sensitive to vibrations so that you don’t miss anything.
This is just like the fire alarm in yourhome—it can be annoying when it goes off in response to just a tiny bit ofsmoke. But that’s a small price to pay compared to a fire really breaking outbecause the alarm fails to alert you.
Now, you might still ask: why can’t ourbrains just make every judgment correctly without being too sensitive to falsesignals?
The answer is that your brain bears aheavy burden every day. "You get a large amount of sensory informationthat’s coming from your eyes, ears and skin, and you can’t deal with all thatinformation all the time," Michael Rothberg, a researcher at BaystateMedical Center in Springfield, US, told Live Science.
For example, the rustling (沙沙声)of clothing or the growling (咕咕声) of your stomach may both lead your brain tobelieve that they come from the vibration of your phone—it is like trying tohear your name being called in a noisy room.
So, perhaps you should just check yourphone whenever you think it’s vibrating. It’s not too much trouble to do that,is it?
28. According to thispassage, phantom phone vibration .[来源:学|科|网Z|X|X|K]
A. is common amongpeople with mental problems
B. can measure people’sability to collect information
C. happens when ourbrains react sensitively to false signals
D. helps our brains tomake very quick and accurate decisions
29. Why is the firealarm used as an example in this passage?
A. To show us the firealarm is as sensitive as the phone vibration.
B. To help us understandthe cause of phantom phone vibration better.
C. To tell us the phonevibration usually happens when a fire breaks out.
D. To convince us it’simportant to check our phones like checking a fire alarm.
30. According to MichaelRothberg, which is mainly responsible for phantom phone vibration?
A. A noisy background. B. Alack of much attention.
C. A heavy burden everyday. D. An overflow of sensoryinformation.
31.What does the authorsuggest we do about phantom phone vibration?
A. We should alwaysfully believe our own sense of listening.
B. We should just checkour phones whenever we think they’re vibrating.
C. We should ignore thevibration bothering when our phones are actually still.
D. We should think ofthe vibration carefully before we make correct judgments.
D
So many of us hold on to littlecomplaints that may have come from an argument, a misunderstanding, the way wewere raised, or some other painful event. Stubbornly, we wait for someone elseto reach out to us—believing this is the only way we can forgive or rekindlea friendship or family relationship.
A friend of mine, recently told me thatshe hadn’t spoken to her son in almost three years. She said that she and herson had had a disagreement about his wife and that she wouldn’t speak to himagain unless he called first. When I suggested that she be the one to reachout, she said, "I can’t do that. He’s the one who should apologize."After a little gentle encouragement, however, she did decide to be the firstone to reach out. To her amazement, her son was grateful for her willingness tocall and offered an apology of his own. As is usually the case when someonetakes the chance and reaches out, everyone wins.
Whenever we hold on to our anger, we turn"small stuff (问题)"into really "big stuff" in our minds. We start to believe that our positions are more important than ourhappiness. They are not. If you want to be a more peaceful person you mustunderstand that being right is almost never more important than allowingyourself to be happy. The way to be happy is to let go, and reach out. Letother people be right. This doesn’t meanthat you’re wrong. Everything will be fine. You’ll experience the peace ofletting go, as well as the joy of letting others be right.
You’ll also notice that, as you reach out and let others be "right", theywill become less defensive and more loving toward you. They might even reachback. But, if for some reason they don’t, that’s okay too. You’ll have theinner satisfaction of knowing that you have done your part to create a moreloving world, and certainly you’ll be more peaceful yourself.
32. The underlined word"rekindle" in Paragraph 1 probably means " ".
A. recover B. develop C. accept D. replace
33. In the author’sopinion, we hold on to our anger often because we think .
A. wecan turn small issues into big ones B.our happiness is more important
C.our own opinions matter most D. others will be less defensive
34. The best thing to doafter a quarrel is to .
A. let go of our own fights B.realize that you are wrong
C. expect others to give in D.apologize to others first
35. What would be thebest tide for the passage?
A. Be Peaceful B. Reach Out and Give C.Small and Big Stuff D. Enjoy YourFriendship

◆ 39 After keeping a journal for years, you can lookback at it and see how far you’ve gone. Things that were big problems in thepast might seem small today. The raw ideas you had in the past might ha
ve been realized today.
