A
How would you describe Quincy Jones? Is he an instrumentalist, a
composer, an arranger, or a producer? None of these labels can sum up this remarkable man. He
has been known for years to people who follow popular music. But his part in the We Are the World VCD and the Hands Across
America project made him a national figure.
In addition to these successful efforts, Jones has written the
music for many cartoon movies, including The Color Purple,
which won 11 Oscar nominations（提名）. He also wrote the music for
Alex Haley’s Roots, a greatly successful television mini―series.
These achievements show his many-sided genius.
Quincy Jones was born on March 14, 1973, in Chicago’s South Side.
Ten years later, his family moved to the Seattle area. It was there that he met Ray Charles,
who was three years older than
Jones and who in time would be a world-famous singer. The young
musicians performed at small clubs and weddings. Through Charles’s influence, Jones began
composing.
When Jones was only 15, his musical talent impressed Lionel
Hampton, who invited him to join the Hampton band. Jones was ready to quit school to join, but
Hampton’s wife, Gladys, stated her disagreement. Believing that he needed an education, she removed
him from the band’s bas. “Get that child out of here,” she yelled, “Let him
finish school.”
These experiences made Quincy Jones more determined than ever to
success. He finished high school, attended the Berklee College of Music in
Boston on a scholarship, and finally did Lionel Hampton’s band. Soon, however,
he struck off on his own. The future beckoned（召唤） brightly.

the World VCD and the Hands Across
America program.

Friendship can deeply affect the physical and mental health of
both men and women. Studies show that people who have no friends or who are lonely, are more
likely to die earlier, get sick more often and suffer greater physical wear and tear（折磨） than those who have a support system of friends.
Sometimes, family members may be more likely to give you advice or
tell you what you don’t want to hear. It may not be as good as a friend who will listen to
you and guide you, but support your decisions anyway. The most important elements about
friendship are those who suffer support and do not judge your decisions based on society.
One reason for the link between social support and good health
practice seems to be that people who feel cared for by others are less stress-out and are protected
against the symptoms（症状） of depression and loneliness.
Generally, women benefit most because of how they deal with
stress. Women are more social in how they deal with stress than men, while men are more likely to
have a “fight or flight” reaction.
Women also tend to have larger, denser social network, in which
more people know each other and help each other, while men typically have smaller groups of
friends and will rely on their wives or other important people for more support. While all these
affect people psychologically（心理上）, friendship brings comfort that reduces the ill effects of
stress, and the sex difference also contributes to the difference in the length of one’s life
time.
45. In the author’s opinion, a real friend should _________.
A. tell you what to do even if you refuse to hear it.
B. try to persuade you to change your mind quickly.
C. judge your decision according to his/her experience.
D. give you advice but respect your own decision.
46. Women benefit more from friendship than men because _________.
A. women are always cared for by more people than men.
B. women are usually less stress-out when staying with others.
C. women are more likely to solve problems with friends’ help
D. women can always keep more long-life friendship than men
47. According to the passage we can infer that _______.
A. it’s good for women to tell men what they should do or not
B. friends are always more important than family members
C. men don’t want to share their problems with many people
D. the trend that women can live longer makes them more relaxed
48. This passage mainly talks about _________.
A. why people should develop friendship
B. when friendship affects people’s health
C. people’s different attitudes towards friendship
D. the friendship which can make people live longer

Someday a stranger will read
your e-mail without your permission or scan the websites you’ve visited. Or perhaps someone will casually glance through your
credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences
or calling habits.
In fact, it’s likely that some
of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without your
permission? It might be a husband or wife, a girlfriend, a marketing company, a
boss, a police or a criminal. Whoever it is, they will see you in a way you’ve
never intended to be seen.
Some experts tell us boundaries
are healthy, and it’s important to reveal （暴露） yourself to your friends,
family and lovers in stages, at proper times. But few boundaries could remain.
The digital equipment makes it easy for strangers to know who you are, where
you are and what you like. In some cases, a simple Google search can even
reveal what you think. Like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where
you simply cannot keep a secret.
The key question is: Does that
matter?
When opinion polls ask Americans
about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it. A survey shows that
60 percent of them feel their privacy is “slipping away, and that bothers me.”
But people often say one thing
and do another. Only a tiny number of Americans change the behaviors in an
effort to protect their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths（收费站） to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track your automobile
movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy economist
Alessandro Acquits has run a series of tests, and these tests show that the
majority of Americans will not keep personal secret just in order to get their
hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon（优惠券）
But privacy does matter―at least
sometimes. It’s like health: when you have it, you don’t notice it. Only when
it’s gone, do you wish you’d done more to protect it. So, when it comes to
privacy, why do so many people say one thing and do another? And what can be
done about it?
53. What would be the experts’
advice on the relationships between friends?
A. Friends should open their
hearts to each other.
B. Friends should always be
faithful to each other.
C. There should be a distance
even between friends.
D. There should be fewer secrets
between friends.
54. The author says “we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret” because ______.
A. modern society has finally entered a much opened society
B. people leave privacy around when using modern technology
C. there are always people who are curious about others’ affairs
D. many search engines profit by selling people’s privacy
55. According to Alessandro Acquits, most Americans _________.
A. like to exchange their personal secret for the commercial benefit
B. aren’t interested in the pitiful commercial benefit to keep their personal secret
C. pay no attention to their personal secret for the commercial benefit
D. can’t keep the balance between their personal secret and the commercial benefit
56. The best title for the passage could be _________?
A. Is Privacy As Important As Health
B. What Can Be Done to Protect the Privacy
C. Does Privacy Matter
D. Does Modern Technology Reveal Privacy
