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 cant even understand a bit of music.” “Im 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 Im trying to find other places to play. Im also looking to book a few summer festivals this year.” Ive 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 theyre positive or negative, theyre rubbing off on you. If youre 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 its 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 dont 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 youre looking for, or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path.21. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A. A friend in need is a friend indeed B. How to make friendship last for everC. You are who your friends are D. Friends are the most important in ones success22. The musicians words at the beginning are written mainly to show _.A. the musicians living conditions are quite poor B. people have poor taste in musicC. people have different attitudes towards the same thing D. young people have greater chances of succeeding23. By taking the exercise mentioned in Paragraph 7(underlined), you can _.A. improve a lot in making more friends B. come to the right way of making friendsC. develop a better relationship with your friends D. arrange the time with your friends properly24. The passage is mainly written for _.A. musicians B. managers C. negative people D. people wanting to succeed BIf you are a traditional traveller who believes cameras are irreplaceable，here are some things you should pay attention to when looking for the perfect camera.Sensor sizeAlong with the megapixel (百万像素) count，the size of the sensor dictates the general image quality as well as the cameras performance in low light. It also determines whether the camera can electronically put the details it captures bigger enough to seewhich is what makes the pictures not clear enough to see when you view the photos on a bigger screen.Portability“The important thing is that the camera isnt too big or heavy，and that you have a good zoom (变焦距镜头) range for both wideangle and telephoto shots (远距摄影照片)，”Atherton told CNN.A good choice would be a slim，light pocket camera with a highqualified builtin optical zoom. “These are very popular for travel as they are light，but built with a telephoto lens that can zoom up to 60 times，” Atherton said.Zoom and shutter (快门) speedFor action or crowd shots，a fast shutter speed is a key factor. “When dealing with anything thats activewildlife or people in action on the streetfaces change within a tiny part of a second，” said Arnold，“a fast shutter speed is helpful in shooting the several hundred photos you might need to get that single winning shot.”25. According to Atherton，what isnt a requirement for an ideal camera?APortable shape. BWideranged zoom.CGood telephoto lens. DReasonable sensor size.26What will contribute to a satisfactory photo of a running lion in the wild?AThe sensor size. BThe zoom range.CThe shutter speed. DThe megapixel.27Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?AHow to choose ideal travel cameras? BHow to put a camera into good use?CA fashionable cameraup for sale DA highquality cameraa modern lifes mustC.Japanese Students Suffer from Pressure Last April,15- year- old Rei Iwasaki stopped her piano and flute lessons and began to study every day of the week. Her parents paid to send her to a cram school(灌输式教学模式的学校).She wanted very much to pass her exams. In February she did pass an all-day, five-subject examination and entered the high school she hoped to enter. Thirteen-year-old Akio Yoshiwara wasnt so lucky. Unable to take the pressure of the exams, he hanged himself in February. He left a suicide（自杀） note which said, I did my best in this dear life, but its no good. Suicides are now a common part of life among students in Japan. The cause is the incredible pressure of the examination hell. Even a number of teachers are committing suicide each year. When some students broke windows in a school near Tokyo, the principal blamed himself and wrote the following note: The incidents were due to the lack of appropriate measures by the principal and I apologize. I am very tired. The Japanese educational system is much different from the American system. It is perhaps the most regimented(严密组织的) school system in any of the industrialized nations. Boys and girls wear uniforms and go to school six days a week - 240 days a year compared to 180 in the U.S. Ninety- five percent graduate from high school compared to seventy-five percent in the U.S. Students dont ask questions in class but only listen respectfully to the teachers. And every few years students are tested to see which school they will enter next. There is stiff competition for the best schools. The result is a well-informed, disciplined student, ideal for factory and company work and excellent at learning specialized skills. But there is little fun in education, little creativity and the incredible pressure of examination hell.28. Its because _ that many Japanese students committed suicide. A. they didnt do their best in their lives. B. they were sent to a cram school. C. of the most regimented school. D. they were unable to take the pressure of the exams.29. Why did the principal kill himself? Because_ A. He thought it was his fault that some students broke the windows. B. He was very tired. C. He couldnt stand the pressure of the examination hell. D. He blamed himself and wrote a note.30. Which of the following ideas agrees with the title of the passage. A. The Japanese students love to study under pressure. B. The Japanese students do well under pressure. C. The exams give the Japanese students much pressure. D. The exams make the Japanese students commit suicide each year.31. Which of the following is Wrong? A. The American educational system is much different from the Japanese system. B. To enter a high school, a student must pass an all-day, five-subject examination. C. The Japanese graduates from high school are much less than the American graduates. D. In Japanese education, there is little creativity as well as little fun.D. Autumn means different things to different people. “It all depends on your personality，” said British naturalist Richard Mabey. “Personality shapes your view of the season，” he said. “You may see it as a fadingaway，a packingup (结束)，or as a time of packing in another sensethe exciting gathering of resources before a long journey.” If this is true，perhaps it tells us a little about，for instance，Thomas Hood，the 19th Century English poet. About November，he wrote： No warmth，no cheerfulness，no healthful ease No shade，no shine，no butterflies，no bees November! On the other hand，another English poet John Keats，already sensing he was seriously ill，was inspired by a late September day to pen one of the most famous poems in the English language，To Autumn. He wrote to a friend afterwards that there was something comforting and healing about it. According to Richard Mabey，Keats has the biological evidence on his side. Autumn is not a time of slowing down，but a time of new beginnings and great movements of creatures. For example，just at the moment that Keatss “gathering swallows” ( in To Autumn)are departing for Africa，millions of creatures are fleeing from the frozen north like Iceland，Greenland and Russia to winter along the east and south coasts of Britain. According to scientists，before falling，the leaves transfer their chlorophyll(叶绿素) and carbohydrates into the woody parts of the tree for safe keeping over winter. What remains is the natural antioxidants (防老剂) in the leaves: the yellow and orange carotenoids (类胡萝卜素)，and another protective chemical specially produced for autumn，the brightred anthocyanin (花青素)High colour is not a signal of deterioration (退化) and decline，but of detox (排毒的) ability and good health.A century after Keats，the American poet Loren Eiseley wrote in his journal: “Suppose we saw ourselves burning-like maples in a golden autumn. And that we could break up like autumn leaves.dropping their substance like chlorophyll. Wouldnt our attitude towards death be different？”32From Thomas Hoods poem，we may infer that _Ahe suffered a lot from cold November Bhe missed the shining summer days very muchChe had a negative attitude towards autumn Dhe enjoyed butterflies and bees very much33In autumn，leaves turn yellow before falling because _Athey cant bear the freezingBthey cant get enough water from the wood partCchlorophyll and carbohydrates have been lost through leavesDchlorophyll and carbohydrates have come back to the wood part34From the passage we can learn that _Aautumn has different faces in different peoples eyesBJohn Keats was a good biologist as well as a poetCall creatures move from the cold north to Britain for winterDthe three poets were only known for their poems about autumn35Which word can best describe Loren Eiseleys attitude towards autumn?AFearful.BOptimistic. CDoubtful.
