题目内容
15.The other day I heard a few local musicians talking:"I hate all the terrible pianos in this town.I hate that rubbish they play on the radio.They can't even understand a bit of music."
"I'm never playing in that club again.Too many drunks and nobody listens to us."
But,one younger musician said,"There are a few clubs that book my band a few nights a month,and I'm trying to find other places to play.I'm also looking to book a few summer festivals this year."
I've heard that you are the average of the five people whom you spend the most time with,or to put it another way,you are who your friends are.
Attitudes are important.Whether they're positive or negative,they're rubbing off on you.If you're around people who complain about lack of work and about other musicians,or blame others,and you play the role of victim,chances are you will start to as well.So it's time to take a look at the people you call"friends".
This is an easy exercise:Make a list of the people who you hang out with,and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list.Set a new standard for yourself and don't become friends with people who fall below that standard.
Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better.Ask them how they do it.Ask if they will help you get the work you're looking for,or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path.

解答 32-35 CBCD
32 C 主旨大意题.根据第六段"Attitudes are important.Whether they're positive or negative,they're rubbing off on you"态度很重要,无论他们积极或消极,他们都在影响你,以及最后一段"Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better."和成功的人在一起,你自己成功的机会也会更大.问他们如何成功,问他们是否帮助你寻找工作.这些都说明了朋友对自己的影响是很大的,往往朋友是什么样,自己也差不多.故选C.
33 B 推理判断题.根据后文"If you're around people who complain about lack of work and about other musicians,or blame others,and you play the role of victim,chances are you will start to as well."如果你周围的人经常抱怨工作或者其他音乐家的缺点,或者责备他人,那么你将有更大机会成为受害者.可知朋友的行为会影响自己,故选B.
34 C 细节理解题.根据第六段段首"Attitudes are important."态度很重要.这句话是对文章首部小故事的总结,可以推测人们对相同的事物有不同的态度.而不同的态度有着不同的影响,不同的结果.故选C.
35 D 推理判断题.根据最后一段"Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better.Ask them how they do it.Ask if they will help you get the work you're looking for,or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path."和成功的人在一起,你自己成功的机会也会增加.问他们如何成功,问他们是否能够帮助你寻找工作,或者在你的事业成功的道路上给一些建议.所以这篇文章最可能写给想要成功的人.故选D.
