Best Music Apps For 2020
Deezer
Launched in France, Deezer is a music streaming service that’s available for nearly every single platform you
can think of. It’s available on Android and ioS devices, macOS and Windows desktop, xbox One, Roku, and via a
web browser. It’s older than Spotify and Apple Music and is available in 182 countries. Deezer features a more
diverse catalog of music than most competing apps. You can sign up for the free version or fork out $9.99 per month
for the premium (优质的) version. The free option is ad-supported and can only be used on your tablet or computer.
Shazam
It’s not exactly a stand-alone music app. It’s more of a music detection app. If you don’t know the name of a song,
Shazam listens to it and gives you the name of the artist and the song. This app works best when it’s paired with
another streaming app. It recognizes songs and provides streaming and purchasing options from Spotify, Amazon
Music, Apple Music, and others. You can also view the lyrics of the detected songs. The Shazam app runs on iPhone,
iPad, and most Android devices. Shazam is available for free and with no ads
Apple Music
Apple Music is the best music app for iPhone. You can also use it on all other iOS devices including the iPad,
iPod, Apple watch, HomePod speakers, and on iTunes on your Mac or PC. The app is also available for Android users.
The one outstanding feature of Apple Music is the “Connect” feature. This feature allows you to follow artists, bands,
and individual creators so that you get a feed with all their updates. Subscription starts at $10 a month. There’s also a
student option for $5 and a family option for $15. Apple Music doesn’t have a free plan, but you do get a free trial for
a period of 3 months.
Spotify
Spotify is great when you want to use a music app offline. It’s available on Android and iOS devices, Kindle Fire,
Windows Phone, and NOOK. You could apply for a Spotify FREE membership where you can still access the huge
collection of over 20 million songs. The only catch is that you have to listen to ads. And the ability to download songs
is restricted to premium members. Spotify premium members are allowed to download songs for offline listening for
only $10 a month. Get Premium Individual or Family plans including a Google Home Mini at no extra cost. But
firstly, try any Spotify Premium plan free for 3 months.
21. Who is the text mainly intended for?
A. Android users. B. Music lovers. C. App programmers. D. Advertisers.

Rats and other animals need to be highly tuned to social signals from others so that can identify friends to
cooperate with and enemies to avoid. To find out if this extends to non-living beings, Loleh Quinn at the University of
California, San Diego, and her colleagues tested whether rats can detect social signals form robotic rats.
They housed eight adult rats with two types of robotic rat—one social and one asocial (不爱社交的)—for 5 our
days. The robotic rats resembled a bigger version of a computer mouse with wheels to move around and colorful
markings.
During the experiment, the social robot rat followed the living rats around, played with the same toys, and
opened caged doors to let trapped rats escape. Meanwhile, the asocial robot simply moved forwards and backwards
and side to side.
Next, the researchers trapped the robots in cages and gave the rats the opportunity to release them by pressing a
button. Across 18 trials each, the living rats were 52 percent more likely on average to set the social robot free than
the asocial one. This suggests that the rats perceived the social robot as a genuine social being. They may have
bonded more with the social robot, because it displayed behaviours like communal (共同的) exploring and playing.
“This could lead to the rats better remembering having freed it earlier, and wanting the robot to return the favour
when they get trapped,” says Quinn.
The readiness of the rats to befriend the social robot was surprising given its plain design. The finding shows
how sensitive rats are to social signals, even when they come from basic robots. Similarly, children tend to treat
robots as if they are fellow beings, even when they display simple social signals. “We humans seem to be fascinated
by robots, and it turns out other animals are too,” says Wiles.
24. Quin and her colleagues conducted a test to see if rats can ________.
A. pick up social signals from non-living rats
B. distinguish friends from enemies
C. learn sociable skills through training
D. send out warning messages to their fellows
25. What did the social robot do during the experiment?
A. It followed the asocial robot.
C. It set the trapped rats free.
26. Why did the rats release the social robot according to Quinn?
A. They tried to practice a means of escape.
B. They expected it to do the same in return
C. They wanted to display their intelligence
D. They considered it an interesting game.
27. What can we learn from the text?
A. Rats are highly adaptable to new surroundings.
B. Rats are more socially active than other animals.
C. Rats behave differently from children in socializing.
D. Rats are more sensitive to social signals than expected.
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. B 27. D
On paper, hydrogen looks like a dream fuel. In practice, things are trickier. Storing meaningful quantities of
hydrogen gas requires compressing (压缩) it several hundred times. Transforming it into liquid state is another option,
but one that requires cooling the stuff to -253℃. Either process requires
rugged tanks. Over time, hydrogen gas can
pass slowly into metals, weakening them and potentially causing cracks. Tanks must be built from special materials
designed to resist this breakdown.
Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute led by Marcus Vogt, think that supplying hydrogen as goop (糊状) offers
a way around some of its limitations. They have been experimenting with a chemical compound that can be pumped
into a container and then persuaded to give off its hydrogen on demand.
Their invention, which they nickname “powerpaste”, looks like toothpaste. Its main ingredient is magnesium
hydride, a compound that when introduced to water, reacts with it to form hydrogen and magnesium hydroxide. The
escaped hydrogen can then be redirected into a fuel cell, where it reacts with oxygen from the air to generate electric
power. The magnesium hydroxide waste is emptied from the reactor automatically.
Dr Vogt’s scheme offers several advantages over batteries, petrol and more conventional ways of handling
hydrogen. One is the storage of energy than either batteries or petrol can manage. A second is ease of refilling, which
is simply a matter of swapping an empty container of paste for a full one, and topping up the water, which is stored in
.C
B. It made friends with toys.
D. It moved around alone.
a separate tank. A third advantage is that, unlike a battery, the paste does not gradually lose its stored energy if it is left
on the shelf. Moreover, the paste itself is harmless, as are the reaction’s by-products.
But there are still more to work through. Magnesium hydride reacts only slowly with water. To overcome this,
Dr Vogt and his team have found a chemical additive that greatly accelerates the reaction. They have also found a way
to ensure that the reaction can be controlled precisely enough to supply only as much hydrogen as is needed at any
given moment.
28. Which of the following best explains “rugged” underlined in paragraph 1?
A. Creative. B. Fragile. C. Tough. D. Enormous.
29. What can we know about the invention according to paragraph 3?
A. Magnesium hydride mixed with water releases hydrogen.
B. Several chemical reactions occur in the same tank.
C. Water and electricity are necessary in the process.
D. The remaining waste needs removing with extra help.
30. How is paragraph 4 mainly developed?
A. By providing examples.
C. By quoting sayings.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Dream Fuel: Hydrogen Gas
C. Advantages of Hydrogen Goop
【答案】28. C 29. A 30. B 31. D
B. New Clean Energy
D. “Toothpaste” in Your Tank
B. By drawing comparisons.
D. By explaining a concept.
D
Pricing is more than number; it’s series of integrated (综合) strategies. For most businesses, managers put a
great deal of effort into making and marketing their products, but where many fall short is in transforming the value
they create into profits.
All too often critical pricing decisions prove ill-considered. Many companies base pricing primarily on their
costs, leaving money on the table in the form of hidden profits. In reality they could make more if they focused
instead on the value they deliver to customers. Baseball fans are willing to pay over $100 for a ticket stub (票根) for
the baseball game in which Cal Ripkin broke Lou Gehrigs’ record of playing 2,160 games in succession. For them,
these tickets have a collector’s value which far exceeds the admission cost charged that day to enter the ballpark.
A product’s cost simply represents the floor or minimum price that should be charged. Everything charged above
that floor is obtained from the perceived value in the mind of the purchaser. Think about how diverse people are. It
would be surprising to find two people who value the same product identically. Value is highly subjective and
intensely personal. Thus a clearly inter-linking, data-backed value analysis is the key to developing a worthwhile
pricing structure.
Adjusting your price with value and adopting multi-price mindset are the fundamentals of pricing for profits and
growth. The traditional search for the perfect price has to be replaced with a multi-price mindset. One price simply is
not the best. What is required is a series of strategies to benefit from each customer’s unique valuation of a product.
For example, managers in Carribean attractions know vacationers from snow-covered Boston will value their hotel
rooms more highly in January than those from sunny Florida. Therefore, they advertise their rooms for $350 a day in
Boston newspapers if you ring up and use the promotional code “Boston”. But if you were to use the code “Florida”
instead, you might get the same rooms for $250 a day—the price quoted Florida advertisements.
32. What needs improving for most businesses according to the author?
A. Making products. B. Expanding market. C. Digging pricing. D. Decreasing costs
33. What can we know about hidden profits?
A. They root in personal preferences.
C. They are often over-explored.
34. What can we infer form the last paragraph?
A. The more prices offered, the more profits to be made.
B. Businesses should outweigh pricing over anything else.
C. Customers prefer to buy the same products at different prices.
D. Proper pricing offers a shortcut to generating big new profits.
35. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text?
A. To uncover challenges in business.
C. To decode the art of pricing.
【答案】32. C 33. A 34. D 35. C
B. To blame casual pricing decisions.
D. To promote multi-price mindset.
B. They vary with the market.
D. They are closely cost-related.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
When I was teaching, we talked a lot about high vs. low-stakes (风险) writing. Recently, I’ve been thinking
about friendships the same way—high and low-stakes friendships. Since the stakes might be different for men and
women, will limit this discussion to women’s friendships with men and women. ____36____
Friendships are high stakes when they are intimate (亲密的). ____37____ We also depend on the other person
for support in difficult times; advice in times of conflict, and sympathy in times of regret. We feel “known” by them.
The loss of a high-stakes friend is painful: it has a noticeable impact on our lives.
Low-stakes friendships, on the other hand, are more casual and limited emotionally. We may play bridge or
tennis together; go out for dinner with our partners. ____38____ We don’t share any feelings or experiences that
would make us feel emotionally fragile and we do not talk about feelings toward each other. The loss of a low-stakes
friend may be regrettable, but it does not leave any mark in our lives.
According to Professor Harry Stack Sullivan, the first high-stakes friendship is typically formed in
pre-adolescence with friend of the same sex, a “chum” (密友). Chumship is a relationship in which the other person’s
interest and security become as important as one’s own.
____39____ The preadolescent who successfully enters a chumship finds someone with whom she can share her
innermost thoughts and feelings. To her chum, she can reveal what she feels to be the most terrible things about
herself in an atmosphere of acceptance. Successful chumships offer an opportunity to work through disagreements
and learn to compromise. ____40____
A. But we do not feel “known”.
B. What do I mean by high and low-stakes friendships?
C. The formation of chumship is crucial to personality growth.
D. It is a developmental stage that lays the groundwork for later relationships.
E. We share feelings about important aspects of our lives and about each other.
F. An end to the friendship would have a dramatic impact on our sense of well-being.
G. Chumships occur during preadolescence (10-12), but they can continue much longer than that.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One evening I was resting in a cafe. I wore a pair of newly bought white leather shoes, which were rather
expensive. Then a boy came to me.
He was in an unfit shirt, looking pale and about eleven. At sight of my new leather shoes, his big eyes were
bright with hope. No sooner had I begun to speak than he opened the box in his hand and took out the tools of
shoe-polishing. He quickly bent down, took off my leather shoes, and began to shine them.
He was busy doing his work when heavy rain began to pour down. People rushed to the café for shelter from the
rain. More and more people crowded in and gradually separated the boy from me before I realized it. Hours passed,
and it turned dark. I had no shoes on my feet and wondered where the boy had been. I thought he would not return my
expensive shoes, and I would have to go home on my bare feet.
When it was near midnight the rain ended, and there were fewer and fewer people in the café. The café was to be
closed. I had to move slowly to the door, head lowered. Just as I went to the gate, was surprised to find that a boy of
about eleven, looking very familiar, was sleeping at the door with his head leaning against a box and his upper body
being bare. He was holding a package made of his shirt tightly in his arms.

Paragraph 2. I felt it necessary to do something for the boy.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Paragraph 1. I shook him slightly and woke him up. He jumped up and rubbed his eyes for quite a while before
he finally recognized who I was. Then he opened the package in his arms with caution, gave me my leather shoes, and
apologized again and again to me shyly. I paid him and wrapped his cold little body with his unfit shirt, which had
wrapped my leather shoes. On my way home, the image of the little boy stayed in my mind.
Paragraph 2. I felt it necessary to do something for the boy. The next day I went to the café again and was not
surprised to see the boy there, making his way among customers looking for some business. I asked him to sit down
and we talked over a cup of coffee. I learnt that he was trying to make some money to help his sick father and to get
back to school. “You know what? I just need someone to polish shoes for my employees as they are too busy to do
that,” I said, smiling.
