Question 19-21. Read the text anh circle the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct
answer to each question.

Music influences people in different ways or the same person differently at different times.
Music may seem to influence people differently. That is because people can react
differently to music. We are able to apply a choosing process to the music we hear. If
someone hates jazz, then a jazz piece with a positive effect will probably not make him feel
good. A happy song might appear to make an angry person angrier, yet it is not the music
itself that is creating the anger; rather it is the positive effect of the music. The angry
person does not want to accept the song's happy feeling: it points out his already existing
anger, and makes that anger come to the surface. When a piece of music is played and we
are listening to it, our body, mind, and feelings are being affected. The musicians of ancient
cultures such as China, India, Turkey and Greece understood the effects of music. In fact,
Pathagoras, in ancient Greece, introduced a whole science that concerned them. Because
the musicians of these ancient cultures understood these effects, they created music that
was positive, uplifting, and beneficial. Once the effects of music are better understood, the
next step is to gain a better understanding of the music around us, and what effect it is
actually having.

Question 19. The text is about __________.

A. The science of music B. Understanding music

C. The effects of music on human feelings D. Music and an angry person

Question 20. Music __________.

A. cannot be chosen B. affects everybody in the same way

C. affects us in different ways D. never makes us angry

Question 21. What does the word “they” in the reading text refer to?

A. ancient cultures B. effects C. musicians D. pieces of music.

Every nation and every country has its own customs and traditions. In Britain, traditions
play a more important part in the life of the people than in the countries. Englishmen are
proud of their traditions and carefully keep them up.

are delivered; only a few Sunday papers are published.

To this day, an English family prefers a house with a garden to a flat in a modern house

house is a little square covered with cement painted garden in imitation of grass and a box
