18、 up.Indeed science is so good at what it does that theres always a temptation(诱惑)to drag it into problems where it may not be helpful.David Brooks,author of The Social Animal:The Hidden Sources of Love,Character,and Achievement,appears to be the latest in a long line of writers who have failed to re

19、sist the temptation.Brooks gained fame for several books.His latest book The Social Animal,however,is more ambitious and serious than his earlier books.It is an attempt to deal with a set of weighty topics.The book focuses on big questions:What has science revealed about human nature?What are the so

20、urces of character?And why are some people happy and successful while others arent?To answer these questions,Brooks surveys a wide range of disciplines(学科).Considering this,you might expect the book to be a dry recitation of facts.But Brooks has structured his book in an unorthodox(非常规的),and perhaps

21、 unfortunate,way.Instead of introducing scientific theories,he tells a story,within which he tries to make his points,perhaps in order to keep the readers attention.So as Harold and Erica,the hero and heroine in his story,live through childhood,we hear about the science of child development,and as t

22、hey begin to date we hear about the theory of sexual attraction.Brooks carries this through to the death of one of his characters.On the whole,Brookss story is acceptable if uninspired.As one would expect,his writing is mostly clear and,to be fair,some chapters stand out above the rest.I enjoyed,for

23、 instance,the chapter in which Harold discovers how to think on his own.While Harold and Erica are certainly not strong or memorable characters,the more serious problems with The Social Animal lie elsewhere.These problems partly involve Brookss attempt to translate his tale into science.56.The autho

24、r mentions the functions of science at the beginning of the passage to_.A.illustrate where science can be appliedB.demonstrate the value of Brookss new bookC.remind the reader of the importance of scienceD.explain why many writers use science in their works57.According to the author,which of the fol

26、graph?A.Problems with the book.B.Brookss life experiences.C.Death of the characters.D.Brookss translation skills.BWhat Theresa Loe is doing proves that a large farm isnt a prerequisite for a modern grow-your-own lifestyle.On a mere 1/10 of an acre in Los Angeles,Loe and her family grow,can(装罐)and pr

27、eserve much of the food they consume.Loe is a master food preserver,gardener and canning expert.She also operates a website,where she shares her tips and recipes,with the goal of demonstrating that everyone has the ability to control whats on their plate.Loe initially went to school to become an eng

28、ineer,but she quickly learned that her enthusiasm was mainly about growing and preparing her own food.“I got into cooking my own food and started growing my own herbs(香草)and foods for that fresh flavor,”she said.Engineer by day,Loe learned cooking at night school.She ultimately purchased a small pie

29、ce of land with her husband and began growing their own foods.“I teach people how to live farm-fresh without a farm,”Loe said.Through her website Loe emphasizes that“anybody can do this anywhere.”Got an apartment with a balcony(阳台)?Plant some herbs.A window?Perfect spot for growing.Start with herbs,

30、she recommends,because“theyre very forgiving.”Just a little of the herbs“can take your regular cooking to a whole new level,”she added.“I think its a great place to start.”Then?Try growing something from a seed,she said,like a tomato or some tea.Canning is a natural extension of the planting she does.With every planted food,Loe noted,theres a moment when its bursting with its absolute peak flavor.“I try and keep it in a time capsule in a canning jar,”Loe said.“Canning for me is about knowing whats in your food,knowing where it co
