In 2006, the UK government started to allow universities in England and Wales to charge British students tuition fees. More than 80 percent of students in England and Wales now take out a student loan in order to go to university. They use the loan (贷款) to pay for tuition fees, books and living expenses. Although the interest on student loans is quite low, it begins as soon as the student receives the loan. The average student in England and Wales now graduates from university with debts of around £12,000. Students of medicine usually have debts of more than £20,000. That is a lot of money. It means graduates cannot afford to buy a house for many years. They even struggle to pay rent on a flat, because they have to start paying back the student loan after graduating. If you start to earn over £15,000 a year, the government takes repayments directly from your monthly salary. Is it any surprise, therefore, that the average British person does not leave their parents’ home until they are 30 years old?
You might think that a British person with a degree will find it easy to get a well-paid job. However, most people in white-collar jobs seem to have a degree these days, so there is a lot of competition. Also, British companies tend to value work experience over a piece of paper. Like everyone else, graduates usually have to start at the bottom and work their way up. That can be very frustrating for them, since they are often over-qualified for the work they are doing. While at university, they have dreams of getting an exciting, challenging job. Therefore, life after university ends up being quite disappointing for a lot of graduates.
All of the above is beginning to make British people question whether a university degree is really worth the money.
1.What's the best title of this passage?
A.What's a University Education worth in the UK? |
B.There is a lot of competition in the UK |
C.There won't be any University Place left for British students |

2.What's the following is true?
A.University Education is really worth the money in England |
B.University Education is worth all over the world except in England |
C.British education is becoming more expensive for a majority of British students |
D.British students don't like to go to university |
3.We can infer from the passage ____
A.The average British person didn't leave their parents' home until they are 35 years old |
B.Having a degree doesn't get aBritish person a good job |
C.Students are graduating without larger and larger debts. |
D.things are easier for students from other countries coming to study |
in the UK without money
4.The word "interest" in paragraph2 means_______
A. money paid for a week's work |
B. money borrowed from a band |
C. a regular monthly salary |
D. extra money paid on a loan or bank savings |

The British are the most voracious(如饥似渴的) newspaper readers in the world.
They read newspapers at breakfast ; they walk to the bus reading a newspaper; they read a newspaper on bus, as they go to work; and on the way back home, after work, they are engaged in reading an evening newspaper.
There are many" morning papers", both national and provincial. The most famous is The Times. Different from what many foreigners believe, this is not a government newspaper. The various newspapers usually have their own views of the Communist Morning Star. The Labor Party and the Trades Union Congress no longer have a daily newspaper to represent them.
Bold headlines and a variety of photographs are features of the British press. Some newspapers, such as the sober Daily Telegraph and The Times, use photographs sparingly(节省). The more“popular”newspapers, using the small or "tabloid"(小报) format, such as the Daily Express, the Mail, the Daily Mirror and the Sun, use pictures extensively and also run strip cartoons and humorous drawings, some of which present striking pictorial comment on politics.
Besides offering features common to newspapers all over the world, British newspapers specialize in pages devoted to criticism of the arts and a woman's page. One feature found in many foreign newspapers is missing in British papers:the serial(连载).
Nearly all papers pay special attention to the reporting of sports and athletics. The evening newspapers are often bought because the buyer wants to know the winner of a race, or to get good tip for a race that is still to be run. There is no censorship(审查) of the press in Britain (except in wartime), though of course all newspapers—like private persons—are responsible for what they publish, and can be sued for libel (为诽谤而被起诉) for publishing articles that go beyond the bounds of decency(正派), or for ignorance of court” (e.g. calling a man a murderer while he is still being tried.Such cases are not often)
69.Which of the following does NOT serve as an evidence(证据) that the British are the great newspaper readers?
A.They read newspapers at breakfast. B.They read newspapers at work.
C.They read newspapers on bus. D.They read newspapers on the way back home.
70.Many of foreigners think that_______.
A.The Times is an organ (喉舌) of the government
B.The Times has its own views on politics
C.The Times is the most famous newspaper in the world
D.The Times pays too much attention to the reporting of political events
71.British newspapers are characterized by ________.
A.bold headlines B.various kinds of photographs
C.striking pictorial comment on politics D.both A and B
72.Which of the following conclusions can NOT be drawn from the passage?
A.Englishmen always take every possible chance to read newspapers.
B.In Britain, newspapers must be carefully examined by the authorities(当局) before their publication for fear that they present anything offensive.
C.Few British newspapers publish libelous articles.
D.The Times is one of the world-famous newspapers.

科目:高中英语 来源:2011-2012学年江西省高三第三次月考英语题 题型:阅读理解
Many people take it for granted that black is a color of bad things while white should always mean something good. This may be because, in their opinion, black is related to darkness and white to purity. However, that is not always the case. Did you know that the same colour may mean differently in different places of the world?
In the English-speaking world, black is the colour of mourning. People wear black clothes at the funeral. Red is concerned with danger or bloodshed (流血). Yellow is the word for fear. If you are afraid, you are yellow. Yet none of these sayings is true outside the English-speaking world. In China and Korea white is the colour of mourning. In Russia, China and some other countries, red stands for beauty, life and excellence. In Italy and Germany, you are yellow with anger, not with fear.
Even within the English-speaking area it is not difficult to find colour contradictions. A redcap in the United States is a porter in a railway station. In Britain, however, a redcap is a military policeman. Both names are logical because both men wear red caps. Similarly, the British term for an American white collar worker is sometimes called a black-coated worker.
One does not have to cross an area to find colour differences. Would you rather be red-blooded? If we go back to the origin, we find that both terms are logical as both names suggest. The expression "blueblood" comes from Spain, where some noble families proudly said that they had "blue blood". But then why "blue" blood? Because they were fairskinned, and it is only natural that their blood vessels (血管) stood out appearing blue.
1.Yellow is concerned with anger in .
A. Russia B. China C. Britain D. Germany
2. The two meanings of the term "redcap" form a difference in .
A. pronunciation B. logical relationship C. custom D. climate
3. Both Britain and America would probably agree that .
A. a black-coated worker is employed in an office B. black is the color of mourning
C. red stands for beauty and excellence D. a redcap is a porter in a station
4.The best title for this passage is
A. The Development of the Symbolic use of Colors B. The Meaning Concerned With Certain Colors
C. Colors that Carry Bad Meanings D. The Origin of Blue Blood.
5.When some Spanish called themselves “blueblood”, they actually meant .
A. they came from a noble family B. their faces looked blue
C. they had blue blood in their vessels D. they were fairskinned
