2．I passed all the other courses that I took at my university，but I could have never passed botany．This was because all botany students had to spend several hours a week in a laboratory looking through a microscope at plant cells，and I could never once see a cell through a microscope．This used to make my professor angry．He would wander around the laboratory pleased with the progress all the students were making in drawing the structure of flower cells，until he came to me．I would just be standing there．"I can't see anything，"I would say．He would begin patiently enough，explaining how anybody can see through a microscope，but he would always end up angrily，claiming that I could too see through a microscope but just pretended that I couldn't．"It takes away from the beauty of flowers anyway．"I used to tell him．"We are not concerned with beauty in this course，"he would say．"We are concerned with the structure of flowers．""Well，"I'd say．"I can't see anything．""Try it just once again，"he'd say，and I would put my eye to the microscope and see nothing at all，except now and again something unclear and milky．"You were supposed to see a clear，moving plant cells shaped like clocks．""I see what looks like a lot of milk．"I would tell him．This，he claimed，was the result of my not having adjusted the microscope properly，so he would readjust it for me，or rather，for himself．And I would look again and see milk．
I failed to pass botany that year，and had to wait a year and try again，or I couldn't graduate．The next term the same professor was eager to explain cell-structure again to his classes．"Well，"he said to me，happily，"we're going to see cells this time，aren't we？""Yes，sir，"I said．Students to the right of me and to the left of me and in front of me were seeing cells； what's more，they were quietly drawing pictures of them in their notebook．Of course，I didn't see anything．
So the professor and I tried with every adjustment of the microscope known to man．With only once did I see anything but blackness or the familiar milk，and that time I saw，to my pleasure and amazement，something like stars．These I hurriedly drew．The professor，noting my activity，came to me，a smile on his lips and his eyebrows high in hope． He looked at my cell drawing．"What's that？"he asked．"That's what I saw，"I said．"You didn't，you didn't，you didn't!"he screamed，losing control of himself immediately，and he bent over and looked into the microscope．He raised his head suddenly．"That's your eye!"he shouted．"You've adjusted the microscope so that it reflects!You're drawn your eye!"

A．Because he had poor eyesight
B．Because the microscope didn't work properly
C．Because he was not able to adjust the microscope properly

9．Music is magic!Music speaks louder than words and it is a"language"that the whole world can understand．A piece of music can produce a response in the heart and mind．Like feeling an electrical current or receiving a personal radio signal，music has a spiritual effect on a person．Different kinds of music influence people in different ways．
I have listened to music all my life．When I was twelve years old，the Beatles came to America and my whole world opened up．Maybe young people today cannot understand the influence of the Beatles when they exploded across America．Their influence changed the way we dressed，looked，acted and spoke even our culture．The Beatles arrived in America from the UK just under three months after the assassination（暗杀）of President John Kennedy，which had put America into a great depression．And the freshness and lively sprit of the Beatles was exactly what the country needed to refresh itself．
Music links the heart of the hearer with that of the composer．This means that it mixes the spirit of the composer with your spirit when you listen to it．And the music can take your spirit out of your body and transport you into another world．Music has a great way of touching people．Music can make you laugh，cry or shout．It's also a great source of inspiration．
Try this one day and notice what happens：make yourself a cup of tea，sit on your sofa and play one of your favorite songs．Close your eyes，and soon you'll find yourself creating vivid mental images---matching the music that you are listening to．
