When I entered Berkeley,I hoped to earn a scholarship. Having been a straight A student,I believed I could 1 tough subjects and really learn something. One such course was World Literature given by Professor Jayne. I was extremely interested in the ideas he 2 in class.
When I took the first examination,I was 3 to find a 77,C-plus,on my test paper,4 English was my best subject I went to Professor Jayne,who listened to my arguments but remained 5 .
I decided to try harder,although I didn’t know what that 6 because school had always been easy for me. I read the books more carefully,but got another 77. Again,I 7 with Professor Jayne. Again,he listened patiently but wouldn’t change his 8 .
One more test before the final examination. One more 9 to improve my grade. So I redoubled my effort and,for the first time,10 the meaning of the word “thorough”. But my 11 did no good and everything 12 as before.
The last hurdle (障碍) was the final. No matter what 13 I got,it wouldn’t cancel three C-pluses. I might as well kiss the 14 goodbye.
I stopped working hard. I felt I knew the course material as well as I ever would. The night before the final,I even 15 myself to a movie. The next day I decided for once I’d have 16 with a test.
A week later,I was surprised to find I got an A. I hurried into Professor Jayne’s office. He 17 to be expecting me, “If I gave you the As you 18,you wouldn’t continue to work as hard. ”
I stared at him,19 that his analysis and strategy (策略) were correct. I had worked my head 20,as I had never done before.
I was speechless when my course grade arrived： A-plus. It was the only A-plus given. The next year I received my scholarship. I’ve always remembered Professor Jayne’s lesson： you alone must set your own standard of excellence.

n.完形填空技能综合
[文章大意]这是一篇记叙文。作者进人伯克利大学学习的时候，文学课的教授一次次把他的考试成绩评为c+，这使他觉得自己不可能拿到奖学金了，因此很沮丧，并放松了学业，期末考试前还去看电影。但期末考试教授给他的分数是全班唯一一个A+。从此他总记得教授的教诲：你必须为自己设立一个优秀的标准。
1. A这里用take a subject表示"攻读(某课程) "。"我"在中学是全优生，所以"我"想"我"可以学比较难的课程，真正学点儿东西。
2. B本题用动词present表示"陈述，呈现(观点、计划等) "。"我"特别喜欢世界文学课的Jayne教授在课堂给我们陈述的那些观点。
3. A "我"对自己的能力很自信，对老师的课也很感兴趣，可是第一次考试"我"只得了 77分，得了个C+，这让"我"觉得诧异。
4. C本题选C表示原因。因为英语是"我"(学得) 最好的科目，却只得了C+，所以"我"觉得惊讶，并因此去找教授评理.
5. D教授只听"我"理论，并没有说话。从四个选项的含义看，这里用unmoved表示教授听了"我"的争论与辩解却无动于衷。unmoved表示"没有被打动"。
6. B教授不为"我"所动，没办法，"我"只能更努力地学习。但"我"也不知道更努力地学习"意味着"什么，因为"我"的学习一直都很好。
7. B "我"更努力地学习的结果是第二次考试还得77分，于是"我"再次去找教授理论。这里用reason与上文的argument 相呼应，表示作者对自己这么低的考试分数不服气，与教授辩论。
8. B上文提到，第一次找他的时候，他无动于衷，所以这次还是一样，他不愿意改变初衷，不愿意改动"我"的分数。
9. C期末考试前还有一次考试，这是"我"提高考试分数的又一次"机会"。
10. D "我"再次加倍努力地学习，并且第一次充分明白了什么叫"彻底"地学习。
11. C可是"我"所付出的这一切努力都没有任何作用。这里用effort指前面提到的"我"一次次加倍努力地学习。
12. B这里表示一切照旧，但不能用系动词，因为句中没有表语，而应该用不及物动词go表示"进展，发生"。
13. A无论期末考试结果如何，这都改不了一个事实："我"巳经得了三个C+了。
14. A学习成绩不优秀，拿奖学金是没有指望的了。这里不是说和课程、学位、科目告别，而是连续三个C+使"我"拿不到奖学金了。
15. C本题用treat表示"招待，款待"。期末考试的前夜，"我" 甚至放纵自己去看电影了。
16. A "我"开始放弃学业了，在考试的前一天晚上去看电影，第二天，"我"就决心把考试当作好玩的游戏了。
17. D前面几次考试"我"都去找他理论，这次他似乎也早就在期待"我"的到来了。
18. C假如前几次考试都如你所愿，每次都得A. 你就不会继续努力学习了。
19. D "我"意识到他的分析与策略是对的。
20. D本题用动同短语work off表示"(通过消耗体力) 发泄(怒气、沮丧之情）。

You’re on the third lap around the car park,because there are no open spaces,and you’re already 15 minutes late for your appointment. Right now you’re wishing you could jump out of the car and let it go and find its own spot.
Now there’s an app for that. Virtual Valet lets your;iPhone tell your car to park without you in it. “You pull up to the roadside,push a button on your smartphone and the car takes care of everything else,w says Aeron Steinfeld,the lead researcher for the project at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh，Pennsylvania.
To find its own spot,the system uses a sensor suite similar to ones found in many luxury cars. This includes a motion sensor that scans for moving cars and pedestrians,and a forward-facing laser rangefinder normally found in adaptive cruise control to determine the distance of objects in front of the car. Information from these sensors is then fed to an onboard computer to plot the vehicle’s course. The user can watch the whole process from their phone.
Better still,it will be affordable. The team has spent the last year moving from high-end imaging and processing equipment to less expensive components. In experiments,the vehicle was able to navigate through a crowded parking structure,find an empty spot,and park all on its own. And the greatest appeal of the Virtual Valet Parking App is that it requires no change to existing parking facilities or infrastructure.
For the moment,the only car equipped for control by Virtual Valet is Carnegie Mellon’s modified (改进) Jeep Wranger,which the researchers have named NavLabll. But Steinfeld hopes that major car manufacturers will adopt the technology.
It might be more than technology that holds up the show,however. Self-driving cars have been licensed in only three US states—California,Nevada and Florida—and it’s unclear how this app would agree with self-driving laws. Until these questions are settled,your insurance provider might be unwilling to cover a ding (凹痕) from a parking incident.
( ) 5. It can be learned from the first two paragraphs that
A. parking lots are too crowded
B. parking spaces are too limited
C. your car can park automatically via a smartphone app
D. you can leave your car alone if you can’t find a parking spot
( ) 6. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A. How to determine the distance of objects.
B. How the Virtual Valet App works.
C. How to use the System.
D. How to analyze the information about the vehicle’s course.
( ) 7. The underlined word “plot” in Paragraph 3 probably means “ ”
A. draw B. circle
C. change D. follow

Patience is of great important in our daily life. Once I waited a bus to come at a stop. 30 minutes past,but no bus came. Both upset and annoyed,I decided to walk on feet. But no sooner had I left when the bus arrived. I thought if I had waited for one more minute,I would have caught it. If I chose to take a next bus,I would have to wait for other 30 minutes. Only then do I realize my problem. Being impatient will possibly waste all the effort that we have put it in. Now whenever I am close to lose my patience,I’ll think of this experience.
