Pharrell Williams takes a breath and considers how the past years have developed for him: ten Grammy Awards and a number of hit singles including a song that has caused countless fans to express how they are “happy”.

And the key, says the 43?year?old known simply as Pharrell, has been taking advantage of audiences' (聽眾的) need for heartfelt personal stories.

“I think we've entered a new singer?songwriter time,” said the American singer and producer. “People want a story. They want a story they can connect to. It's not about what you have or what you don't have; it's more about your journey and your viewpoint that's important to people.”

Pharrell said he noticed a change in audiences' tastes over the past year in particular with the sudden success of his song Happy, which received little fanfare upon its release but has turned into an international hit. Countless videos populate sites like YouTube with people from Portugal and China to Abu Dhabi and Iran singing and dancing along to the song.

After seeing how far his song traveled, the singer broke down in tears during a televised interview with the famous talk show host Oprah Winfrey.

“It's just encouraging to people who have something to say, something to express,” he said.

The success has made Pharrell realize that people are searching for personal and emotional links (情感紐帶), perhaps as a means of getting away from the modern technological world we're living in today.

“People want to feel. There's too much thinking to deal with,” the singer said. “We're different from what we were 15 years ago, The only thing we have left that reminds (提醒) us that we are humans is feeling. It' s the most important thing ever.”

1.What's the key to successful music according to Pharrell?

A. Writing happy songs.

D. It received different responses at home and abroad.

3.How did Pharrell feel about the success of his song?

A. It was caused by good luck.

B. It was within his expectations.

C. It gave him hope and confidence.

D. It prevented him giving up making music.

4.Why do people want to be connected to others emotionally?

A. They need someone to talk to.

If you’re wondering when you might get the flu, a new study indicates you should keep an eye on your local weather report.

According to a research published in the Journal of Clinical Virology, if you keep your eye on the weather and watch for the first major dip in the temperature, you can essentially mark your calendar in prediction for an outbreak the flu.

To figure out how the weather and flu outbreak may be connected, researchers analyzed statistics of 20,000 people in an area over three seasons. The number of people who caught the flu was then compared with local weather data.

After each season, the team noticed one consistent finding: The first really cold period with low outdoor temperatures and low humidity (濕度) was always followed by a week of a mass influenza outbreak.

The researchers say that aerosol particles (氣溶膠粒子) containing virus and liquid are more able to spread in cold and dry weather. So, in theory, if you sneeze or cough and the surrounding air is very dry, the air will absorb the moisture and the particles containing the virus keep spreading through the air for a longer period of time.

Luckily there are ways to keep off the illness regardless of the weather. Washing your hands, coughing into the crook (彎曲) of your arm and getting vaccine (疫苗) are the best ways to prevent the flu from spreading. People over the age of 65, pregnant women and young children are at the highest risk of developing complications (并發(fā)癥) related to the virus, according to the CDC.

1.From the first paragraph we can infer that .

A. people may easily fall sick

B. nobody can predict when one gets flu

C. flu is often related to weather changes

D. weather report plays an important part in life

2.How did the researchers draw the conclusion of the study?

A. By analyzing the data

B. By doing questionnaires

C. .By carrying out experiments

D. By making observation

3.Why do people catch the flu easily in cold and dry weather?

A. Cold and dry weather helps the spread of virus

B. The colder it is, the more kinds of flu there are

C. Gold and dry weather can prevent people from doing exercise

D. Low temperature can increase the number of aerosol particles

4.What can we learn about from the last paragraph?

A. The vaccines for flu

B. The main ways to cure flu

C. The most common kind of flu virus

D. The people who are easy to get flu

Millions of teenagers are in danger of putting their health at risk by getting hooked on e-cigarettes, experts warn. Leading health researchers say they are “very concerned” by the growing number of youngsters trying the devices.

E?cigarettes have been marketed as a healthier alternative to smoking conventional cigarettes. But previous research shows e?cigarettes generate poisonous chemicals similar to those found in tobacco and may harm the lungs and immune system.

Worryingly, researchers at Liverpool University discovered 16% of teenagers who have used e?cigarettes had never previously smoked. The experts also found e?cigarettes were “strongly related” to drinking among teenagers. Study author Prof. Mark Bellis said, “Our research suggests that we should be very concerned about teenagers accessing e?cigarettes. While debate on e?cigarettes has focused largely on whether or not they act as a gateway to tobacco cigarette use, e?cigarettes themselves contain a highly addictive drug that may have more serious and longer lasting impacts on children because their brains are still developing.”

Researchers surveyed 16,000 students aged 14 to 17 in the North West of England and asked them about their alcohol and tobacco use. They found that one in five answered yes to the question: “Have you ever bought or tried electronic cigarettes?” More males than females said they had.

Of the teenagers that had accessed e?cigarettes, 16% had never smoked, 23% had tried smoking, 12% only smoked when drinking, and 14% were ex?smokers. The research also found teenagers who drank alcohol were significantly more likely to have accessed e?cigarettes than non?drinkers.

Among those who had never smoked, it was found that those who regularly have excessive(過多的)drinking were four times more likely to access e?cigarettes than those who never drink. In all of those that drink, regardless of smoking status, e?cigarette access was associated with excessive drinking and involvement with violence after drinking. The researchers said their findings suggest that teenagers who use e?cigarettes are most susceptible to other forms of substance use and risk?taking behaviors.

1.How have e?cigarettes been promoted in the market?

A. As a healthier substitute for traditional cigarettes.

B. As a device meeting the mental needs of smokers.

C. As a product preventing smokers from using tobacco products.

D. As a new device promoted among youngsters.

2.What do we learn from the survey made in the North West of England?

A. E-cigarettes are now widely available and heavily promoted.

B. E?cigarette access is linked to excessive drinking and violence after it.

C. Teenagers are very knowledgeable about alcohol and tobacco use.

D. The number of adult cigarette smokers is dropping at present.

3.Which of the following can replace the underlined words “susceptible to” in the last paragraph?

A. greatly interested in

B. commonly accustomed to

C. deeply disappointed at

D. easily influenced by

4.What's the main idea of the passage?

A. Experts are concerned about excessive drinking in teenagers.

B. The harm of the e?cigarettes is greater than that of alcohol.

C. Teenagers are in danger of risking their health on e?cigarettes.

D. Researchers are aware of smoke?related health harm.
