friends who celebrate  them. Caroling (圣頌歌), having dinner, social talks, introduction of who is
whose children etc., and not to miss, the food, delicious. I like the turkey sandwich.
      As usual, I looked and walked around after dinner, and to my surprise, two of my nephews, aged
22 and 25, look really beautiful, just like movie stars. The nieces were not bad at all. Some are very

閱讀理解，根據(jù)短文，選擇正確答案。
     Have you ever noticed background music? You can listen to it everywhere, restaurants, airports,
supermarkets, department stores… Background music is supposed to influence (影響) your attitudes
(態(tài)度) and mood (心情).
     Companies pay millions of dollars every year for background music. It's supposed to make you feel
better about yourself and the people around you. Factories use it a lot. It makes the workers happy and
work better. It is said (據(jù)說) that in a factory, music can increase the production by 4.5 percent.
Workers do not easily get tired if they listen to music all day. A worker in San Francisco said:" If the
music stops, somebody always runs to the telephone to complain about it. "Background music was
started during World War II when some factories had their own orchestras to keep workers happy and
calm . Now, of course, the music is piped in (以電訊設(shè)備傳送) by a machine and different kinds of
music are played at different time in a day. For example, the music they play are faster at 10 than 8,
because workers are usually slower then.
     It's also very interesting that fast music is played in restaurants where hamburger is sold. Before
playing fast music, customers spent 22 minutes eating hamburgers. When they started playing fast music,
they found that a customer spent only 17 minutes eating! So they have more people coming in and out to
buy hamburgers. It's good for business. You can see why music has become so popular. In Los Angeles
(洛杉磯), for example, 30 different companies are selling background music services.
     The Xerox Corporation (靜電復(fù)印公司) in Rochester, N．Y．(紐約州的羅切斯特市), spends
more than $80,000 a year for background music. Prison warders (獄警) use it. Farmers also use it to
keep their cattle calm. It's said that background music even influence plants.
1. According to the passage, background music _____.

    David's got a text message from his friend Sam. Can you understand it?
    7,15      20,15      20,8,5      16,1,18,11
    This message was in code (密碼, 代碼). How many letters are there in the English alphabet?
Twenty-six. So can you read it now?
A   B   C   D  E   F   G  H   I    J  K L M N O P Q R S T U ...
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 ...
    David decided to use a different code in his answer to Sam. This time, he was putting A instead of B,

she felt puzzled. She couldn't read it at all. But David was very happy that his sister couldn't read his message!
     Lots of people use codes to send secret messages. In a war, secrets are very important so soldiers often
send each other messages in code. Nowadays, we can use computers to make and break difficult codes. Even
before computers, people invented other machines to do this. 
    Here's a famous machine that Germans used in the Second World War (1941-1945). It's called the Enigma
Machine. The machines were very big, heavy and expensive. Every day they changed the codes automatically,
and this made it almost impossible for anyone to break the codes. The person sending a message had one
machine, and the person receiving the message had another.
