阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项标号涂黑。
A
The other day I heard a few local musicians talking, “I hate all the pianos in this town and I hate that rubbish they play on the radio. They cannot even understand rhythm (韵律).” “Nobody wants to

pay musicians anything. I?m sick of all the people who want you to play without paying you.” One younger musician said, “There are a couple of clubs who want me to play for a few nights a month, and I?m trying to find other places to play. I?m also planning to join in several summer festivals this year.” I really liked what the younger musician said so I made friends with him.
Attitudes are important. Whether they?re positive or negative (消极的), they’re all rubbing off on you. If you?re around people who are always complaining(抱怨) or blaming others, it is possible that you will start doing the same as well. If you spend lots of time with people who don?t support your dreams, it is time to take a look at the people you call “friends”.
There is an easy exercise you can try. Make a list of the people who you often stay 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. The choice is always yours to make. Of course, this exercise is entirely different from making friends only for the good of oneself. We really should try to help and spend time with those who are working towards a goal or dream. 56. The first paragraph serves as a(n) _______. A. explanation B. introduction C. comment D. background 57. The musicians? conversation at the beginning is to show that _______. A. musicians? living conditions are not good B. people in that town have poor taste in music C. different people have different attitudes D. young people are more likely to succeed 58. The underlined part “they’re rubbing off on you” in paragraph 2 means _______. A. they?ll push you ahead B. they?ll have an influence on you C. they?ll keep you from moving on D. they?ll help you realize your dreams 59. By doing the exercise mentioned in Paragraph 3, you can _______. A. make the right kind of friends B. improve your ability to make friends
C. develop a better relationship with your friends
D. make some new friends with the same interests as you 60. We can learn from the passage that _______.
A. the younger musician is a positive person but would not be a good friend B. one will stop complaining if one spends too much time with negative people C. the exercise can help you keep close to really helpful friends
D. one should avoid making friends with people who have lots of difficulties
B
Babies who watch TV are more likely to show late learning development and language at 14 months, especially if they are watching programs aimed at adults and older children, according to a new study, which would probably surprise those parents who leave their babies in front of a TV set.
Babies who watched 60 minutes of TV daily had developmental scores a third lower at 14 months than babies who were watching less TV. Although their developmental scores were still in the normal range, the difference may have been due to the fact that when children and parents are watching TV, they are missing the talking, playing and other communications that are important to learning and development.
