A
I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt’s house，and my mother said that we might soon he leaving for America．We were on the bus then．I was crying，and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me．I remember that I could not hear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning．
I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. in fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives．When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures．The country was leaving and never to come back was hardly in my head then．
The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come，to me at once．For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves．I did not quite know what I was or what I should be．Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me．Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other．I was often sad，and saw no end to “the hard times.”
My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home．I wrote letters，filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers，took my grandparents to the doctor and translated‘there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives．
From my experiences I have learned one important rule: Almost all common trouble eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right、even though it will not be that easy．

1685 was a very good year for German composers．Within the space of a month, two of the greatest were born：Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel．
Hanfdel’s father was a barber and a surgeon, which sounds like a strange combination today, but back then those occupations went hand in hand。

Even though Handel was very interested in music，his father didn’t think that was a good way to earn a living, so he wanted his son to be a lawyer．The story．goes that Handel s muggled a quiet piano into the house so that he could practice in secret．
One day, Handel went along when his father went to shave a duke. While his father was working, Handel sat down and played the duke’s organ. The duke was so impressed that he convinced Handel’s father to let his son study music, and Handel finally got to learn how to compose.
Handel soon discovered that what he liked most was opera．In fact, he was so passionate about opera that he even fought a duel(决斗)over it with one of his friends．Since，Italy was the place to learn about opera composing．Handel went off to Italy to study．When he got home．he got a job as court composer for a German prince，
Having landed such a wonderful job，Handel immediately asked his boss for time off．He wanted to go to England, where he’d heard that there weren’t nearly enough composers to satisfy the British taste for Italian opera．
After great Success writing opera in London．Handel came back to Germany. Then fate played a funny trick on Handel and his boss. The Queen of England died，and it just so happened that the princess Handel worked for was next in line to the British throne：When he arrived in London as king George，followed Handel，his court composer in Germany．
In addition to serving the King，Handel became one of the most successful opera composers of his time．And he also produced them and traveled a11 over Europe to hire the best singers. There
are stories of battles with rival opera producers and of fights between rival singers．Handel apparently had quite a temper．
If you ever go to London, look for Handel’s grave in Westminster Abbey, where there’s a wonderful monument to him．
46．How did Handel begin to learn to compose?

Next time a customer comes to your office，offer him a cup of coffee．And when you're doing your holiday shopping online，make sure you’re holding a large glass of iced tea. The physical sensation(感觉)of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decision—those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A．Bargh
Psychologists have known that one person's perception(感知)of another’s “warmth" is a powerful determiner in social relationships．Judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration，even beating evidence that a “cold” person may be more capable．Much of this is rooted in very earn childhood experiences，Bargh argues, when babies’conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations，particularly warmth and coldness．Classic studies by Harrry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother”rather*aim one made of wire, even when the wire “mother”carried a food bottle. Harlow’s work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills．Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal. Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries.
To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth，Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students．A research assistant handed the students either a hot cup of coffee，or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form. The drink was then handed back．After that，the students were asked to rate the personality of “Person A”based on a particular description. Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink．
“We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly,” says Bargh. 51. According to Paragraph1, a person’s emotion may be affected by ．
A．the Visitors to his office
B．the psychology lessons he has
C．his physical feeling of coldness
D．the things he has bought online
52. The author mentions Harlow’s experiment to show that
A．adults should develop social skills．
B．babies need warm physical contact
C．caregivers should be healthy adults
D．monkeys have social relationships
53．In Bargh’s experiment, the students were asked to
A．evaluate someone's personality
B．write down their guesses
C．fill out a personal information form
D．hold coffee and cold drink alternatively
54．We can infer from the passage that
A．abstract thinking does not come from physical experiences
B．feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwide．
C．physical temperature affects how we see others
D：capable persons are often cold to others
55．What would be the beat title for the passage?
A．Drinking for Better Social Relationships．
B．Experiments of Personality Evaluation．
C．Developing Better Drink Habits．
D．Physical Sensations and Emotions
