    The terrible college entrance exam is not only a big challenge (挑战) for Chinese high school students, but also a very important exam in the lives of South Korean students.

        Although the long, cold winter has already started in South Korea, the annual (一年一度的) national exams have made the atmosphere very heated.

        More than 675,000 South Korean high school graduates took the college entrance exam last Wednesday. They usually take exams in Korean, maths, sociology (社会学), history and foreign languages.

        Officially there is one college place for every 1.33 students. But because all the students want to go to the top universities in the country, the competition can reach one place for 10 students. The students want to attend these colleges for both their famous names and better job opportunities.

         Because students face fierce competition, they have to study very hard to realize their dreams. Park Seung said he and his classmates often go to school before 7:30 a.m. After school has finished at 6:30 p.m., most of them go to the library to continue their study instead of returning home. Since many libraries in South Korea are open 24 hours a day, they often stay long into the night. Many of the Senior 3 students only sleep for three to four hours a day. “I feel a lot of pressure, but I have to study very hard in order to make my dream come true. This is my lifetime goal and it will be a turning point in my life which could decide my future,” Park said.

        The exam day is a very serious day for the whole of South Korea. Vehicles are not allowed within a 200-metre radius (范围) of all the test sites to make sure the students have quiet surroundings. Tooting (吹奏) of horns is forbidden, even airplanes are ordered to avoid landing and take-off near the test sites during listening comprehension test hours.

        Students are told their scores in December before they apply for college. This is followed by face-to-face oral tests. There are public and private universities in South Korea. Many private universities are well-known, but their fees can be 18, 000 yuan each term. This has made a lot of students think again.

    1.We can infer that there are almost ________ college places for high school graduates.

    A. 675, 000      B. 507, 520    C. 500, 000     D. 600, 000

    2.The students want to study in top colleges mainly because ________.

    A. they can succeed more easily in future    B. they can learn more

       C. they can make more money   D. it is interesting to study there

    3.Before students are allowed to colleges ________.

       A. they will be interviewed              B. they will ask questions of colleges

       C. they will not be tested any more        D. first they will pay all the education fee at all

    Far from the land of Antarctica (南极洲), a huge shelf of ice meets the ocean. At the underside of the shelf there lives a small fish, the Antarctic cod.
    For forty years scientists have been curious about that fish. How does it live where most fish would freeze to death? It must have some secret. The Antarctic is not a comfortable place to work and research has been slow. Now it seems we have an answer.
    Research was begun by cutting holes in the ice and catching the fish. Scientists studied the fish’s blood and measured its freezing point.
    The fish were taken from seawater that had a temperature of -1.88℃ and many tiny pieces of ice floating in it. The blood of the fish did not begin to freeze until its temperature was lowered to -2.05℃. That small difference is enough for the fish to live at the freezing temperature of the ice-salt mixture.
    The scientists’ next research job was clear: Find out what in the fish’s blood kept it from freezing. Their search led to some really strange thing made up of a protein (蛋白质) never before seen in the blood of a fish. When it was removed, the blood froze at seawater temperature. When it was put back, the blood again had its antifreeze quality and a lowered freezing point.
    Study showed that it is an unusual kind of protein. It has many small sugar molecules (分子) held in special positions within each big protein molecule. Because of its sugar content, it is called a glycoprotein. So it has come to be called the antifreeze fish glycoprotein, or AFGP.
    【小题1】What is the text mainly about?

    A．The terrible conditions in the Antarctic.
    B．A special fish living in freezing waters.
    C．The ice shelf around Antarctica.
    D．Protection of the Antarctic cod.
    【小题2】Why can the Antarctic cod live at the freezing temperature?
    A．The seawater has a temperature of - l.88℃
    B．It loves to live in the ice-salt mixture.
    C．A special protein keeps it from freezing.
    D．Its blood has a temperature lower than -2.05℃
    【小题3】What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
    A．A type of ice-salt mixture. B．A newly found protein
    C．Fish blood. D．Sugar molecule.
    【小题4】What does “glyco-” in the underlined word “glycoprotein” in the last paragraph mean?
    A．sugar B．ice C．blood D．molecule

    Every summer, no matter how urgent work schedule is, I take off one day exclusively for my son. We call it dad-son day. This year our third stop was the amusement panic, where we discovered that he was tall enough to ride one of the fastest roller coasters (过山车)in the world. We experienced through face-stretching turns and circles for ninety seconds. Then, as we stepped off the ride, in a calm voice, he remarked that it was not as exciting as other rides he’d been on. As I listened, I began to sense something seriously out of balance.

    Throughout the season, I noticed similar events all around me. Parents found it hard to find new stimulations for cold kids. Surrounded by ever-greater stimulation, their young feces were looking disappointed and bored

    Facing their children's complaints of "nothing to do", parents were spending large numbers of dollars for various forms of entertainment In many cases the money seemed to do little more than buy relief from the terrible complaint of their bored children. This set me thinking the obvious question: "How can it be so hard for kids to find something to do when there's been such a range of stimulating entertainment available to them?"

    What really worries me is the strength of the stimulation. I watch my little daughter's &ce as she absorbs bloody special effects in movies.

    Why do children facing such excitement seem starved for more? Thai was, I realized, the point I discovered during my own adolescence that what creates excitement is not going fast, but going faster. Excitement has less to do with speed than changes in speed.

    I am concerned about the increasing effect of years at these levels of feverish activity. It is no mystery to me why many teenagers appear uninterested and burned out, with a "been there, done that" air of indifference toward much of life. As increasing numbers of friends’ children are advised to take medicine to deal with inattentiveness at school or anti-depressants (抗抑郁药)to help with the loss of interest and joy in their lives—I question the role of kids’ boredom in some of the diagnoses (处方).

    My own work is focused on the chemical imbalances and biological factors related to behavioral and emotional disorders. These are complex problems. Yet I’ve been reflecting more and more on how lie pace of life and the strength of stimulation may be contributing to the rising rates of psychological problems among children and adolescents in our society.

    1.The reason why the author felt surprised in the amusement park was that ________.

    A．his son was not as excited by the roller coasters ride as expected

    B．his songs enjoyed turns and circles with his face stretched

    C．his son appeared upset but calm while riding the roller coasters

    D．his son could keep his balance so well on the fast moving roller coasters

    2.According to the author, children will probably feel excited ________.

    A．if their parents allow them to ride roller coasters very often

    B．since parents spend money on the same form of entertainment

    C．after they take anti-depressants according to the diagnoses

    D．if they are often exposed to more stimulating entertainment

    3.From his own experience, the author came to the conclusion that children seem to expect _______.

    A．a much wider variety of sports facilities

    B．activities that require complicated skills

    C．the change of the forms of recreation

    D．more challenging physical exercise

    4.In order to relieve children's boredom, the author would probably suggest ________.

    A．adjusting the pace of life and strength of stimulation

    B．promoting the practice of dad-son days

    C．consulting a specialist in child psychology

    D．balancing school work with after school activities
