26、 The piano is one of the most common instruments in the music world. Not only is it where most songs are born, it's also one of the easiest instruments to learn. If you've got a keyboard or piano sitting idle in the house and a lot of time stuck at home, you've got all the makings for a whole new creative idea, and possibly a great family activity in the making.
All you need is the right teacher, but that isn't always easy to come by. Luckily, technology can come to the rescue even with this most creative of pursuits(追求). The Learn to Play the Piano & Music Composition Bundle is a series of online courses that teaches a lot more than just the basic skills. It can turn just about anyone in your family from a complete beginner to a confident piano composer.
The base for the beginner part of this course bundle is the popular Pianoforall system. The traditional piano practice can take the fun out of music before you even start. Pianoforall lets you dive in by practicing pop songs from the likes of Billy Joel and Norah Jones, and teaching you important parts of music theory as you play.
After you've reached your fingers for those classics, you'll move on quickly to the courses designed to increase your dexterity (灵活性). Once you're playing your favorite songs with ease (轻易),you'll start understanding the patterns and chord structures that make those songs truly great. From there, you can enjoy the real fun of playing the piano: Making your own music, either for your own enjoyment or playing with a band.
You’ll even get some education in the art of getting those songs heard. Expert courses in this bundle cover basic music production in music creating programs like Logic Pro X.

27、The British love their supermarkets. And there are more and more of them every year. But is this a good thing? Not necessarily.
For a start, supermarkets have a negative effect on local communities. Money spent in independent small shops usually stays in the area. However, money spent at supermarkets is often put into the bank accounts of distant shareholders(股东), some of whom don't even pay any tax(税) in the UK!
Supermarkets are also bad for animal welfare(福利、关心). The UK has high standards in this field, but some supermarkets get their meat from abroad. And in many cases, this meat is produced under conditions that would be illegal (违法的) in the UK. But once they've got the meat, supermarkets put a British flag on the product as the meat is packed there. Dishonest? Not exactly, but it isn't entirely true either!
Supermarkets have a poor environmental record too. Many of them don't store food products themselves as storage space is expensive, so they get food producers to do it for them. This means that supermarket trucks have to make more trips to collect supplies. In turn,this increases the amount of petrol used, which leads to more pollution. In fact, the average item of food from a supermarket travels over 1,000 kilometres. Supermarkets also use a lot of plastic packaging, which isn't good for the environment either.
So, what can be done to help the small shops? Not much really. Supermarkets have a lot of power. Many political parties(政党) receive donations from supermarkets and supermarkets often use their money to influence decisions. For example, just before the millennium (the year 2000), one supermarket gave the government £12 million to help build the Millennium Dome in London. Later, plans to tax supermarket car parks were dropped.
Supermarkets are good news for shoppers looking for a bargain, but they're definitely bad for local business, animals and the environment!
【1】Why are supermarkets in the UK bad for local communities?
A.They refuse to employ local workers.
B.They take money away from the locals.
C.They drive small shops out of the area.
D.They pay more tax than local companies.
【2】What is the problem with the meat at supermarkets?
A.It is often priced dishonestly.
B.It may be packed under poor conditions.
C.It is sometimes produced illegally in the UK.
D.It may be below UK standard for animal welfare.
【3】How do supermarkets affect the environment?
A.They cause too much food waste.
B.They reuse a lot of plastic packaging.
C.They occupy much land-as storage space.
D.They carry food over long distances by truck.
【4】What does the author think of political parties in the UK?
A.They are heart-broken.
B.They are money-driven.
C.They are open-minded.
D.They are strong-willed.
28、Many people feel that their parents were harder on them than on their brother or sister. And many are quick to blame(责备) negative results in adulthood on it. But results from a Temple University study published this month suggest that it is not necessarily true.
Researchers have found that among siblings(兄弟姐妹)in the same family,recalled negative early experiences such as conflicts(冲突) with parents seem to have little influence over psychological(心理的)wellbeing(幸福) in midlife.
“Existing research suggests the importance of early childhood parental treatment on later wellbeing,but respondents in this study who thought they were treated less favorably than their siblings have been found to be just as satisfied in their lives,”said Adam Davey,a psychologist in the College of Health Professions.
Davey's study looked at data collected from 1,369 siblings between the ages of 26—74 from 498 different families to determine the extent(程度)to which different childhood treatment reached into adulthood. Each sibling answered a series of questions about their memories of parental affection(喜爱),conflicts with their parents when they were young and current wellbeing. Davey and his team found that those who remembered having more conflicts with their parents than their siblings still tended to have generally high levels of wellbeing in adulthood. Not surprisingly,they also found that happier memories,such as memories of affection and warmth,can have positive effects.
Older respondents who were married and had children of their own tended to have a more positive recollection of their childhood. Davey says these findings could suggest that life experience acts as a filter(过滤)for remembering childhood memories. He adds that personality also plays a role:those who were more outgoing tended to have a better recollection of their childhood.
“Even people who grow up in the same environment can have different ways of recalling the past. And it's not necessarily what happens in the past,but the way we remember it that makes a difference to our wellbeing,”said Davey.
【1】What's the purpose of the passage?
A. To show how to improve wellbeing in midlife.
B. To teach parents how to give their children a happier childhood.
C. To blame some parents for being harder on one of their children.
D. To show the link between negative childhood experiences and wellbeing in adulthood.
【2】Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a factor(因素) on how people recollect childhood in Paragraph 5?
A. Having children or not. B. Being healthy or not.
C. Life experience. D. Personality.
【3】According to Davey,what influences our wellbeing in adulthood?
A. What happened in the past. B. How we remember the past.
C. The role we play in society. D. How much we have.
29、Four Habits to Help You Succeed
Nobody would like to experience failure. We all want to succeed. For those who have tried and failed, success seems difficult to understand. 【1】
Know your values.
【2】 Sit and reflect on what you value most. Pick a handful of things and write them down. Remind yourself of your values every day and reflect on whether you are honoring those values through your work.
【3】
Choose one goal to start something large enough that will give you a sense of achievement while adjusting well to your values. If you want to achieve your goal, focus is the key here. The more focused you are on one goal, the higher chance you have of success.
Set a time for success.
Set a date for success. Know when you hope to realize your goal. Keep it realistic while not giving yourself too much time. 【4】
Don’t give up because of failure.
Failure can’t be avoided when you take risks. 【5】 Many people are likely to give up far too early. Don’t fall into this trap (圈套)! Use failure, and treat it as a good thing and go on.
A.Make the right decision.
B.Pick a goal and focus on it.
C.Push yourself to be courageous, and take the next step.
D.By setting a time limit, you are making the process realistic.
E.By its very definition, the hope to succeed means you are risking failure.
F.Finding your values is in line with creating motivation (动力).
G.I have made a list of four habits to help you set goals and realize them.
