Tom was a wanderer. When his wife, Elsie, came to visit him at a care unit for patients with dementia, he would give her a perfunctory(敷衍的) kiss, then wander off through the rooms and stare out the window. Elsie tried to walk with him and hold hands, but he would shake her off, leaving her heartsick.

A music therapist at the facility, Alicia Clair, was searching for ways to help couples like Elsie and Tom connect. Ms. Clair asked Elsie if she’d like to try dancing with Tom, then put on some music from the 1940s—Frank Sinatra singing Time After Time. Ms. Clair said, “I knew Tom was a World War II vet, and vets did a lot of ballroom dancing.”

As Sinatra began singing, Elsie opened her arms, signaling him to come up. Tom stared a moment, then walked over and began leading her in the foxtrot (狐步舞). “They danced for thirty minutes!” Ms. Clair said. When they finished, Elsie broke down and sobbed. “I haven’t been held by my husband in three years.” she told Ms. Clair. “Thank you for bringing him back.”

Ms. Clair, a professor of music therapy at the University of Kansas, tells this story to show how music can reach people with Alzheimer’s disease. Music has the power to bypass the mind and wash through us, triggering strong feelings and implying the body to synchronize(同步) with its rhythm. Researchers and clinicians are finding that when all other means of communication have shut down, people remember and respond to music. Familiar songs can help people with dementia relate to others, move more easily and experience joy. Tom had forgotten his name and couldn’t utter one word, but hearing Sinatra prompted him to dance.

Music memory is preserved better than verbal memory, according to Ms. Clair, because music, unlike language, is not seated in a specific area of the brain but processed across many parts. “You can’t rub out music unless the brain is completely gone.”

25. Tom’s story in the passage shows the importance of _____. A. music to patients with dementia B. music therapy to human being C. the wife’s love to her husband D. learning music before being ill

26. Why does music memory is stored better than verbal memory according to Ms. Clair? A. Because music is a kind of language stored in the brain. B. Because music is processed in many parts of the brain. C. Because music can’t be lost even if the brain is ruined. D. Because music is seated in a specific part of the brain. 27. What does the underlined phrase in the last paragraph mean? A. Removing. B. Learning. C. Giving up. D. Playing.

On the field he’s the graceful, creative, and spectacularly skillful star of both Brazil’s national team and one of soccer’s wealthiest, most ambitious clubs. In early August, the 25-year-old moved from Spain’s FC Barcelona to France’s Paris Saint-Germain in the most expensive soccer deal ever. He’s known simply as Neymar, and he brings fans all over the world to their feet.

But sitting at the piano, he’s Neymar da Silva Santos Junior. That’s his full, given name, and during a June photo shoot inside a crowded studio, it took him several minutes to gather the nerve to try a couple of songs, including the theme from the classic track-and-field film Chariots of Fire.

Neymar left Brazil for Barcelona in 2013 and says, “There was a piano in the house when I moved in!” It was fate. He enjoys being around musicians—there’s video of him playing soccer with Justin Bieber—and he’s even been known to climb onstage during concerts back home.

“I like to get to know people I admire,” he says. “Some of them are athletes, and some of them are singers.”

Maybe someday he’ll be able to play along. Neymar has been using YouTube clips to teach himself piano, and he enjoys a variety of music—from Brazilian country music to Bieber and John Legend. It’s a valuable diversion for someone who’s under a very bright spotlight.

“Sometimes I’m a little active—sometimes I’m quiet. I like to have fun,” he says. “We have only one life, so we have to figure out a way to be happy.” 28. What’s the purpose of paragraph 1? A. To show Naymar’s ambition in soccer. B. To tell us about Brazil’s national soccer team. C. To draw our attention and introduce the star Neymar. D. To indicate Naymar’s potential and popularity in Europe. 29. What can we learn about Neymar?

A. He likes to acquaint himself with musicians. B. He moved to Barcelona and bought a piano.
