6.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.

25.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A
A.You are who your friends are
B.A friend in need is a friend indeed
C.How to make friendship last for ever
D.Friends are the most important in one's success

A.people have poor taste in music
B.the musicians'living conditions are quite poor
C.young people have greater chances of succeeding
D.people have different attitudes towards the same thing

A.improve a lot in making more friends
B.come to the right way of making friends

14.Science has a lot of uses.It can uncover laws of nature,cure diseases,make bombs,and help bridges to stand up.Indeed science is so good at what it does that there's always a temptation (诱惑) to drag it into problems where it may not be helpful.David Brooks,author of The Social Animal:The Hidden Sources of Love,Character,and Achievement,appears to be the latest in a long line of writers who have failed to resist the temptation.
Brooks gained fame for several books.His latest book The Social Animal,however,is more ambitious and serious than his earlier books.It is an attempt to deal with a set of weighty topics.The book focuses on big questions:What has science revealed about human nature?What are the sources of character?And why are some people happy and successful while others aren't?
To answer these questions,Brooks surveys a wide range of disciplines.Considering this,you might expect the book to be a dry recitation (背诵)of facts.But Brooks has structured his book in an unorthodox (非常规的),and perhaps unfortunate way.Instead of introducing scientific theories,he tells a story,within which he tries to make his points,perhaps in order to keep the reader's attention.So as Harold and Erica,the hero and heroine in his story,live through childhood,we hear about the science of child development and as they begin to date we hear about the theory of sexual attraction.Brooks carries this through to the death of one of his characters.
On the whole,Brooks'story is acceptable if uninspired.As one would expect,his writing is mostly clear and,to be fair,some chapters stand out above the rest.I enjoyed,for instance,the chapter in which Harold discovers how to think on his own.While Harold and Erica are certainly not strong or memorable characters,the more serious problems with The Social Animal lie elsewhere.These problems partly involve Brooks'attempt to translate his tale into science.

56.What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?(No more than 10 words)The purpose of writing The Social Animal./The main topics of the book.
57.Why does Brooks use a story to introduce scientific theories?(No more than 15 words)Because he tries to make his points through the story or keep reader's attention.
58.According to The Social Animal,how can we learn about the science of child development?(No more than 10 words)As Harold and Erica live through their childhood.
59.Please explain the underlined word"weighty"in English.(No more than 1 word)Serious.Or:Important.Or:Significant.Or:Great.Or:Big.Or:Crucial.Or:Heavy….
60.Do you like Brooks'way of dealing with science in The Social Animal?Why?(No more than 20 words)Yes,I do.Because he introduces scientific theories through a story,which is much easier for people to understand..
