Sue and Jim were neighbours for five years but they were never interested in each other. Then one day, Sue saw Jim’s music collection. She noticed a rare punk rock CD that she also owned. At that moment, she realized that they both had the same interest in music and they started talking. Sue said, “I thought we had nothing in common（相同）until I saw his CD by the New York Dolls.” They are now married and living with each other.
Some psychologists (心理学家) think that your taste in music is related to (有联系的) your personality. As part of a test at the University of Texas, Austin, USA, volunteers created a CD of their favourite songs. The volunteers then listened to each other’s CDs and made guesses about the CD creator’s personality—outgoing, adventurous, happy, and so on. These strangers correctly guessed much more about each others’ personalities through their CDs than through their clothes or taste in films. For example, Sue and Jim love punk music, which means they have outgoing personalities.
The psychologists who did the test found Snoop Dogg (hip-hop) fans are likely to be energetic and talkative. People who like U2 (rock/pop music) are generally independent and adventurous.
The psychologists also found that Louis Armstrong(jazz) fans tend to(倾向于) be shy. The psychologists were surprised to find that rap and heavy metal fans were also shier and quieter than many other music lovers.

Last month when I was taking part in a US college interview ， I was asked ， “ what makes you special ? ” In fact I had answered questions likes this many times since I decided to go to college in the US. College paid special attention to different achievement . For example , a person who is very good at math can go to a famous college but also can be a good football player .
This experience made me think again that I must try to find where my own interests might lead me . To be honest , it was not easy . However , I never felt sorry to choose this way because it helped me understand myself . If I took the College Entrance Examination ,as we call it gaokao in China , it could never possibly do .
When I entered high school , I took gaokao seriously because it seemed to me a great way to show how good at my lessons . However ,as I grew older , I realized gaokao did make me work hard at my lessons , but the pressure also pushed many other activities out of my life , like guitar―playing . Although I had no time for it , I will still get to it in the future .
No doubt, gaokao provides a way of choosing those who are successful in their studies . But it is really important for all of us to rethink what “ talent ” really is today . This is because we now live in a world in which all of our other human qualities ( 品质 ）are needed for success , not just the high grade .
Ken Robinson once said , “ the society depends on different kinds of talents . ” However , gaokao pays too attention to a person' s grades but little to his other qualities. And it is these qualities that makes life colorful and fun .
As high school students , we can not change the present situation of education , but we are always free to think outside of the box . Although good school grade is still useful , I hope one day we will see our education also welcomes the amazing possibilities in different people .The US College pay special attention to ________.
| A．students ' family background . |
| B．the different achievement |
| C．students ' ideas about way of life . |
| D．the school a student is from . |
When at high school, the writer ________.
| A．had a lot of activities. |
| B．did not work hard at her lessons . |
| C．did well in her lessons |
| D．had no time to play the guitar. |
From the passage, we know that the writer may ________.
| A．go to college in America. |
| B．give up the US college interview . |
| C．become a good football player in the US. |
| D．change the present situation of education . |
Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?
| A．My school life abroad. |
| B．Different exams in the US. |
| C．My view on gaokao |
| D．The importance of school grades |
