              Science has a lot of uses．It can uncover laws of nature，cure diseases，make bombs，and help bridges to stand up．Indeed science is so good at what it does that there's 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 resist 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 sources of character？And why are some people happy and successful while others aren't？
              To answer these questions，Brooks surveys a wide range of disciplines．Considering this，you might expect the book to be a dry recitation （背诵）of facts．But Brooks has structured his book in an unorthodox （非常规的），and perhaps 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 reader's 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 they 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，Brooks'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 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 Brooks'attempt to translate his tale into science．

              (1) What is the main idea of Paragraph 2？（No more than 10 words） ______
              (2) Why does Brooks use a story to introduce scientific theories？（No more than 15 words） ______
              (3) According to The Social Animal，how can we learn about the science of child development？（No more than 10 words） ______

              It was Peggy's idea，actually，"you know you love her．"She said one day，taking me in surprise．The"other"woman my wife was encouraging me to date is my mother，a 72-year-old widow who has lived alone since my father died 20 years ago．I had promised myself that I would spend more time with mom．But with the demands of my job and three kids，I never got around to see her much beyond family get-together and holidays．

              We had a nice talk over dinner．We talked for so long that we missed the movie．"I will go out with you again．"My mother said as I dropped her off，"but only you let me buy dinner next time．"I agreed．Now Mom and I get out for dinner a couple of times a month．

              Many seniors feel pressured to go straight from high school to college-but Camden Olson，who graduated from Latin School of Chicago in the US last year，didn't give in．She decided to spend a gap year raising a guide dog for Guiding Eyes for the Blind in Maine．
              The nonprofit provides trained guide dogs to blind and visually impaired people．"I can say I'm living the dream，"Olson said．"This is something I've always wanted to do．"
              Taking a year off before college，commonly known as a gap year，is becoming more and more popular among American teenagers．According to a survey by the American Gap Association，enrollment （注册）in these programs grew 27 percent between 2012 and 2013．Some students use the year off to figure out what they want to do，travel the world，or save money for college．
              Olson is using her time to pursue a passion she's had since 7th grade．For years，she kept an eye on guide dog services until she came across the opportunity at Guiding Eyes．With support from her friends，family and teachers，Olson went for it．
              Olson's volunteer work centers around Derby，a one-year-old black dog．"My job is to raise him to be well-mannered and socialized，"she said．"Guide dogs have to ignore any distractions．They go everywhere with their visually impaired handler．They give a blind person a lot of independence and emotional support，too．"
              Of course，there's an end in sight for Derby and Olson's close bond．When Derby celebrates his own graduation，Olson will have to say goodbye to him．"No doubt there will be tears，but，assuming he passes，I will be so happy for him to become a working dog，"she said．
              While some look at gap years in negative light，Olson said she's seen major success．In fact，she'll be attending Princeton University this fall and is thinking about majoring in ecology and biology．"I think I'm already so much more mature than I was and aware of what really matters，"she said．"So many kids do come back from gap years a lot more focused and prepared．"

              (1) What is the meaning of the underlined phrase"gap year"in Paragraph 1？（No more than 6 words） ______
              (2) Why did Camden Olson decide to spend her gap year working for Guiding Eyes？（No more than 10 words） ______

              When my friends went to college in great delight，I restarted my senior high school life．My spirit sank．Surrounded by strange classmates，I felt like I was in a maze and was sorry about myself．There were some complex feelings in my minds．I was frightened，nervous and lonely．
              To make matters worse，I recalled my failure again and again，which put more pressure on me than I could bear．As a result，I was always feeling down during class time．
              My teacher found me spiritless．One day he asked me to come to his office and told me about his attitude towards life：we might suffer from mistakes，but it's important to learn lessons from them．All the pains and the embarrassing things we experience are part of the process．So keep up your spirit!At last，he added，"If you are optimistic，things you want may happen to you!"
              Warmth rushed through my soul．I suddenly found the sun shining again when I stepped out of his office．
              With the teacher's help，I eventually got over my depression．From then on，I no longer bowed my head and began smiling to my classmates．I would put up my hand confidently in class and play with my new friends in my spare time．Meanwhile，I was gradually embraced by my classmates．
              Now faced with fierce competition，we all study hard because we know that every second counts．Moreover，there is an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect between us．I love my class； I love my classmates!
              To be frank，I still have a thirst for my dream university，but I'm not afraid of failure because I can profit by it．With parents and teachers'encouragement，I'm quite certain of my success and I'm sure I can fly high．

              I'm a 34-year-old man，married，lived in a nice house，and have a successful career as an educational consultant．But my life was not always so great．I had a learning disability from an early age．I went to a special school where I got plenty of extra help．Still，I suffered the rest of my school days in public schools．
              My life improved remarkably when I discovered art．The art world gave me a chance to express myself without words．I went to a workshop and gradually got good at making things with clay（黏土）．Here I learned my first important lesson：disabled as I was in language．I could still be smart and well express myself with clay．And my confidence came along．
              I got my next lesson from rock climbing．It was a fun thing but I was scared from the start．I soon noticed it wasn't a talent thing； it was practice．So I did it more．After about five years of climbing，I found myself in Yosemite Valley on a big wall．I learned that if you fall in love with something and do it all the time，you will get better at it．
              Later I decided to apply my previous experience to learning how to read and write．Every day I practiced reading and writing，which I used to avoid as much as possible．After two hard years，I was literate．
              Having gone through the long process with art，rock climbing，and reading and writing，now I've got to a point in my life where I know I am smart enough to dive into an area that is totally unknown，hard，but interesting．
