Margaret Mead, the most famous anthropologist(人类学家) in the world, was born in the USA in 1901. Her father was a professor of finance and her mother was a sociologist. After studying psychology as an undergraduate, Mead began a PhD in the relatively new field of anthropology. Mead was particularly interested in primitive communities because she believed that such isolated cultures could serve as “laboratories” that would reveal ways of living that the modern world had forgotten about but needed to remember.
Having travelled to Samoa, a few tiny volcanic, tropical islands in the center of the Pacific Ocean, Mead gradually got interested in gender roles and discovered that modern societies are far more strict in this area than primitive ones. For example, Americans tend to think of men as productive, sensible, and aggressive, while women are often told they’re more light－hearted, peaceful, and nurturing. But in her book, Sex and Temperament in Three Primitive Societies in 1935, Mead studied tribes in Papua New Guinea and recorded that in the Arapesh tribe, both men and women were peaceful and nurturing, while among the Mundugumor tribe, men and women were both ruthless and aggressive.
Mead’s striking conclusion is that it isn’t gender that makes women curl their hair or listen to people’s feelings, or race that makes some nations regularly attack their neighbors. Rather, it’s the social expectations and norms that have laid the groundwork for each individual’s psychological makeup. “We must recognize，” she reminded her readers, “that beneath the superficial(表面上的) classifications of sex and race, the same potentialities always exist, occurring again generation after generation, only to perish because society has no place for them．”
She is regarded as one of the most influential social scientists of the last century. People around the world mourned the death of Margaret Mead in 1978. A year later, the president of the United States, Jimmy Carter, honored the social scientist with America’s highest award for civilians.

B. She majored in psychology and anthropology as an undergraduate.

Money can buy you a lot of things, but nothing can make you feel as rich in knowledge as a great book. Self-made successful businessmen are generally well-read people.
Steve Jobs
Steve Jobs, who died in 2011, is one of the most important American minds of our time. He was influenced by many books, but Be Here Now by Ram Dass was one of the greatest. Jobs reportedly said of the book, "It changed me and many of my friends for a better life."
Jeff Bezos
Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos says he learns more from The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro. "If you read The Remains of the Day, which is one of my favorite books, you can't help but think. I learned something about life and about regret," Bezos told Newsweek.
Mark Zuckerberg
This self-made successful businessman sees Henry Kissinger's World Order as most helpful in how he deals with business, life, and even parenting. "It's about foreign relations and how we can build peaceful relationships throughout the world," Zuckerberg wrote for his book club, A Year of Books, on Facebook. "This is important for creating the world we all want for our children, and that's what I'm thinking about these days."
Bill Gates
Not only is Factfulness by Hans Rosling one of Bill Gates' favorite books, but he also says it's one of the most important he has ever read. "It explains more clearly than almost anything else I've read why it's so difficult for people to understand progress," Gates said in an interview with Time.

It's OK to say you’ve never heard of grime- -unless you're from the U. K. That's because this music was invented in the U. K. in the early 2000s.
To someone who's not familiar with underground music culture, it's easy to get confused between hip hop and grime since they are both noisy. And many people didn't bother to tell them apart, until earlier this month when grime stars like Stormzy and J Hus led this year's MOBO Awards-“Music of Black Origin”一-nominations(提名) in the U. K.
Just like U. K. electronic music and hip hop, from which grime drew influence, it mostly reflects the thoughts of young people. But different from hip hop, grime singers sing in dialects with strong accents, giving a special flavor to their songs.
Lady Leshurr, known as the“Queen of Grime”, said that she once tried to hide her accent, as she didn't want people to judge her. But one day, she realized that she didn't need to change herself just to please others. And there's no doubt that this is the most basic and important quality of grime music: be yourself.
Also different from the hip hop culture, which usually focuses on being rich, grime singers pay more attention to social phenomena like the European refugee problem and the gap between the rich and poor.
Although still quite young, grime seems to be getting favored by more and more people. In 2016, the English grime artist Skepta won the Mercury Prize with his album Konnichiwa, beating big names like David Bowie and Radiohead. However, no matter whether grime is one day accepted by the mainstream music world or not, one thing is for sure: in grime, singers always stay true to themselves.
1. What do hip hop and grime music have in common
A. They are originated in the U. K.
B. They make a lot of loud noise.
C. They challenge traditional culture.
D. They are full of creative ideas.
2. What does the underlined word“it" in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. Electronic music.
B. Hip hop.
C. Grime music.
D. Black music.
3. What can be learned about grime singers
A. They care too much about themselves.
B. They refuse to be judged by others.
C. They tend to take social problems.
D. They show strong independence qualities.
4. What does Skepta' s success suggest
A. Grime is gradually getting recognized.
B. Singers should try to be themselves.
C. Grime has become mainstream music.
D. It is easy to win the Mercury Prize.
