2.In our hyper-technolo gical age,the way we interact with others face-to-face tells others how well we work with others,as well as our ability to maintain good interpersonal relations.
(36)GHere are five job interview mistakes that millennials (千禧一代)often make,so you can be sure not to make them too.
1.Overusing the word"Like"
Even though we all have problems with inserting the word into our everyday speech,giving our every other word with"like"has implications millennials may not even be aware of.(37)A
2.Forgetting to put your phone on silent
If your phone constantly pings and makes other noises during your interview,the person you're talking to will not be impressed.You are a generation that always has a phone in hand.(38)F
3.Dressing inappropriately
Although work attire now tends more toward casual than a three-piece business suit,it's still incredibly unprofessional to show up in clothing that's clearly not suitable for the office.
4.Talking too proudly
In a generation that values the individual above anything else,it can feel almost like second nature to talk too much about oneself.(39)D
5.(40)E

19.Music is magic!Music speaks louder than words and it is a"language"that the whole world can understand.A piece of music can produce a response in the heart and mind.Like feeling an electrical current or receiving a personal radio signal,music has a spiritual effect on a person.Different kinds of music influence people in different ways.
I have listened to music an my life.when I was twelve years old,the Beatles came to America and my whole world opened up.Maybe young people today cannot understand the influence of the Beatles when they exploded across America.Their influence changed the way we dressed,looked,acted and spoke…even our culture.The Beatles arrived in America from the UK just three months after the assassination(暗殺)of President John Kennedy,which had put America into a great depression.And the freshness and lively spirit of the Beatles was exactly what the country needed to refresh itself.
Music links the heart of the hearer with that of the composer.This means that it mixes the spirit of the composer with your spirit when you listen to it.And the music can take your spirit out of your body and transport you into another world.Music has a great way of touching people.Music can make you laugh,cry or shout.It's also a great source of inspiration.
Try this one day and notice what happens:make yourself a cup of tea,sit on your sofa and play one of your favorite songs.Close your eyes,and soon you'll find yourself creating vivid mental images-matching the music that you are listening to.

24.Music has magical power because itD.
A.is a kind of language
B.can be played much louder than words
C.receives a personal radio signal

C.They were the biggest band in American history.
D.They represented the roots of American culture.

6.Ever walked to the shops only to find once there you've completely forgotten what you went for?Or 
struggled to remember the name of an old acquaintance?For years we've accepted that a scatty(低能的)brain is as much a part of aging as wrinkles(皺紋)and grey hair.But now a new book suggests that 
we've got it wrong.
     According to the Secret Life of the Grown-up Brain,by science writer Barbara Strauch,when it comes
 to the important stuff,our brains actually get better with age.In fact,she argues that new studies 
have found that our brain hits its peak between our 40s and 60s---much later than previously thought.
     Furthermore,rather than losing many brain cells as we age,we retain them,and even produce new ones well into middle age.For years it's been assumed that brain,much like the body,declines with age.
But the longest,largest study into what happens to people as they age suggests otherwise.
     This continuing research has followed 6,000 people since 1956,testing them every seven years.It 
has found that,on average,participants performed better on cognitive (認(rèn)知的)tests in their late 40s 
and 50s than they had in their 20s.Specifically,older people did better on tests of vocabulary,spatial orientation (空間定向)skills,verbal memory and problem solving.
     Where they did less well was number ability and perceptual (感性的)speed---how fast you can 
push a button when prompted (提示).However,with more complex tasks such as problem-solving and
 language,we are at our best at middle age and beyond.In short,researchers are now coming up with 
scientific proof of that we do get wiser with age.
     Neuroscientists are also finding that we are happier with age.Older people were much better at 
controlling and balancing their emotions.It is thought that when we're younger we need to focus more 
on the negative aspects of life in order to learn about the possible dangers in the world,but as we get 
older we've learnt our lessons and are sub-consciously aware that we have less time left in life-and it 
therefore becomes more important for us to be happy.

46.The questions asked in the first paragraph are used toA.
A.make an introduction to the main topic
B.prove the poor memory of the old people
C.stress the importance of a good memory
D.explain why the old tend to forget things
47.People used to think thatB.
A.new brain cells will grow even in the old age
B.our brain will function worse with age
C.our brain arrives at its best state in our sixties
D.the brain declines while the body rises
48.According to the passage,the old are poor inC.
A.how many words they can remember
B.how effectively they can solve problems
C.how quickly they can react physically
D.how to judge an object after being circled
49.The old people tend to be happy becauseD.
A.they are rich in personal feelings
B.they aren't afraid of the dangers
C.they like to ignore negative things in life
D.their time is too limited to waste
50.The best title for the passage may beA.
A.We Do Grow Wiser as We Get Older
B.Happiness Is More Important for the Old
C.Being Forgettable Is a Part of Ageing
D.Ageing Brings Happiness.
