This may be music to your ears.

Researchers P. Jason Rentfrow and Samuel Gosling gave3,500 people a personality quiz. Then they asked them to name their favorite kind of music. "We found that the musical style people like are closely linked to their personalities," Gosling says.

RAP/HIP-HOP

Known for their quick speech，some rappers can say more than700 syllables(音节)a mi?nute!

If you like rap/hip-hop,you are energetic(精力充沛的)and have a way with words. You put a fresh spin on things, whether it's new moves on the dance floor or your hip style. CLASSICAL

In the 18th century, classical musicians were like rock stars. Beethoven and Mozart,for example, played in packed concert halls. If you like classical, you are open to new ideas and like debating with friends. Creative and imaginative, you can easily spend many hours scrap-booking,writing or painting.

COUNTRY

Country music came from the folk songs of English, Scottish, and Irish settlers of the southeastern United States.

If you like country，you express your opinions well，which makes you the ideal class presi?dent or team captain. Traditional and loyal, you enjoy spending time with your family.

POP

In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck,but when you are down,they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain quali?ties(品盾)of character,especially understanding, honesty and reliability(可靠).

Above all else,I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person's place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.

At the same time,however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults(过错)in others. He notices their good points. In short,a friend will try to understand me and accept me.

Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time,I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.

There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor (幽默)，too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how to share the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.

When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I've found a friend！

English idioms(习语)are widely used,especially in the spoken language. Here are some examples for you. Do you know what they mean? By the skin of your teeth

If you just succeed in doing something and come very close to failing，people might say you do it "by the skin of your teeth". For example, you pass a test by just a few points or win a match by a little bit.

Ask for the moon

If someone tells you not to ask for the moon,they mean you can't ask for something that you cannot get or have，or try for something impossible. On cloud nine

This expression is used to describe how you feel when something good happens to you,such as when you win first prize in a competition，when you get an A in an exam，or when you receive a nice present from your parents which you want to get so much.

Sick as a dog

If you are feeling very ill,you may have used this expression. Dogs eat everything they find,which means they may easily get sick. So when people say that you are "sick as a dog"， don't feel strange or even angry because they don't mean to offend(冒犯)you.

Have your heart in your mouth

This expression means that you're really scared or nervous about something. The ancient Greek poet Homer used the expression when he wrote the famous poem The Iliad，and people have been using it ever since.

( ) 1. Which of the following is NOT an example of doing something " by the skin of your teeth"?

A. You won the first prize in the five-kilometer race,only one second faster than the one right after you.

B. You were made monitor of your class by 31 votes(选票)to 30.

C. not well D. not sick

( ) 3. When we say a person is "on cloud nine"，he or she will probably be very

A. sad B. happy

他已经下定决心辞职，那就是他的最终决定。

As a teenager in 1972 ，Bill Gates boasted that he would be a millionaire by the time he was 20. While he did not quite achieve that goal,only 15 years later he was a billionaire. And by 1992 ，as head of the Microsoft company, he became the richest man in America with assets(资产)of approximately $6.3 billion.

Born in Seattle，Washington on 28 ，October 1956 ，Gates was named William Henry after his father and grandfather. From the beginning, he was an extremely energetic and intelligent(聪明的)child. He had read the entire world book encyclopedia(百科全书)by the age of nine. His favorite subjects at school were science and maths and his favorite past time was "thinking".

Gates first started to play with computers at the age of 13，when one was installed(安装)at his school. At that time,computers were large,awkward(笨重的)machines. Operators were re?quired to learn complex(复杂的)computer languages before the machines could be used. Even then,a great deal of time and effort was needed to perform the simplest functions. Before long,Gates was an expert at working the school's computer. After his graduation from secondary school, Gates was accepted by the three top universities in USA一Princeton, Harvard and Yale. He chose Harvard and began classes there the next autumn, majoring maths. But he was still ob?sessed(痴迷)with computers and spent as much time in the computer laboratories as he did in the lecture halls.

By 1975, Gates and a partner, Paul Allen, had developed a software called BASIC. This was not the first program ever created，but its inventors were the first to decide that people who wanted to use it should pay for it.

BASIC was a success because until it came along there had been no efficient way of getting computers to carry out instructions. Although he had not yet completed his degree, Gates left university and went to work full time for the new company he had formed called Microsoft.

His next project(项目)was the software program that made him famous and very rich. It was called DOS,short for Disk Operating System, and it was purchased(购买)by IBM in 1980. Today it is the operating system used in more than 14 million personal computers around the world.

As chief executive officer(首席执行官)of Microsoft, Gates is known as a bright man,but one who is not easily satisfied. He is quick to criticize(批评)his staff and hates to be questioned about decisions he has made. He was regarded as a loner, an unfashionable boring computer nut,until his marriage to Microsoft manager Melonda French on New Year's Day 1994. Yet to most people now,Gates is a person who is,in spite of his great wealth, humble(谦恭的)and ordinary. He spends his money carefully, he eats in fast-food restaurants and flies economy class
(经济舱).And when praised for Microsoft's great success, he has been heard to say, "All we do is put software in a box and if people see it in the stores and like it，they buy it.”
