a. the prices can not be changed. b. generally goods there are expensive. c. therere also books about sports. d. goods are mainly about sporting ones. cit is said that usually people learn from their experiences and the mistakes they make throughout their lives. this is correct because life teaches us what is correct to do and what is not. lets consider a mistake that one has made while trying to learn to drive. it is true that, for a beginner, it is common to make mistakes, but after doing something wrong once, twice or three times, it is quite impossible to make the same mistake a fourth time. everyone tries their best in order to improve their skills and they will be very pleased to notice that these improvements really happen. on the other hand, being successful in everything he does, one cannot know what failure means. he would always see only the best side of things and it would be difficult for him to face the difficulties to come in the future. here we can mention the case of a very successful football player, who has known what fame (名声) is from the very beginning of his career. we have to admit that most of his luck originates from the great talent that he was born with. but some fellow players can also work to achieve the same thing because they make mistakes in their games and they learn from each mistake that they make. in the end, we can say that one needs to make mistakes in life in order to better appreciate things. and at the same time, mistakes teach us how important it is to fight for something we wish for in life. of course, moments of happiness will come in return when we see the changes or improvements. 69. the author mentions learning driving in the second paragraph to _.a. make a comparison b. explain that learning is a slow processc. show that driving is a very difficult skill d. prove that success results from failure 70. what is the authors attitude towards someone that is always successful at something?a. he thinks they are lucky. b. he is bored with them.c. he wants to learn from them. d. he believes their success is a bad thing.71. which of the following best describes the organization of the passage? a. b. c. d. dthroughout time, people have loved music for its ability to transport them into a world of rhythm and melody. recently more and more hospitals and clinics have been tapping into the power of music not only to comfort patients, but to help cure them as well. welcome to the world of music therapy(疗法).after each of the two world wars, musicians visited hospitals and played instruments for injured soldiers suffering from emotional and physical pain. todays music therapists continue this practice, playing instruments such as guitars and harps to bring comfort to their audiences.therapist eric mammen encourages his patients at a childrens hospital to participate with him as he plays. during visits with 13-year-old cancer patient lawrence garcia, mammen encourages garcia to beat on electric drums while he plays the guitar. the therapy wont cure his cancer, but it does, according to garcias mom, take away much of the boys depression(沮丧).music therapy can put patients in better moods and ease the symptoms of depression according to the american music therapy association. other benefits include relieving pain, calming tension, aiding sleep, reducing worry or fear, and easing muscle tension.jose haro personally experienced the benefits of music therapy when he was recovering from heart surgery. during his recovery, he played a piano whose keys lit up, indicating which keys to touch to play along with the background music. soon he was playing tunes and noticing something strange. “i was searching for my pain.” he says of his experience, “but it was gone.”while haros experience provides an evidence of the power of music to relieve pain, scientific research has proven music also helps patients with alzheimers disease and arthritis.in addition, music therapy helps premature babies. doctors are tapping into a powerful way to teach premature babies that havent yet learned how to suck. doctors use a device that comforts the babies by playing music when they suck on a pacifier（奶嘴）. soon the babies learn to suck in return for music, gaining weight faster and going home earlier than those who do not use the device.even perfectly healthy people are discovering the power of music to calm and heal. drum circles attract people who find stress rel
