Is he an instrumentalist, a poser, 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 manysided 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 worldfamous singer. The young musicians performed at small clubs and weddings. Through Charles’s influence, Jones began posing. 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.

Insisting that Quincy Jones get off the bus, Gladys Hampton was actually very _____. A. professional B. cruel C. kind D. selfish B 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 stressout and are protected against the symptoms(癥20090520 狀) 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 work, 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 fort 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
