  Beginning college is exciting:new ideas to explore, new challenges to be met and many decision to be made.Your future begins here.

  However, you will find college life is different from your previous school environment.Many of us can be easily overwhelmed(压垮)by the details of running a well-balanced life.While some of us may have the know-how, I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of others who have walked the college halls before you.

  You may find the following is of use about life on campus.

  ◆Plan well.There are so many new things to do at a new college or university.Give yourself time to make new friends and become familiar with the campus, but don’t forget why you are there.Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely.

  ◆If you don’t have a “system” for planning your time now(like a day timer, a computer date book), get one.Most of all, don’t depend on your memory.

  ◆Don’t miss the guidelines.The restrictions, rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student handbook.Consider them well-balanced food for thought.What dates are important? What pieces of paper need to be handed in? What can/can’t you do in class? What can/can’t you do in your student residence(住处)? Who has right for what? What do you need to graduate?

  ◆Write the word “STUDY” on the walls of our bedroom and bathroom, and maybe it will help to write it on a piece of paper and stick it on the telephone, TV and the kitchen table.Consider this-you are paying thousands of dollars for your courses.You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course.

  ◆Build your identity.This is the time for you to decide what to do and what not to do.Take as much time as you need to explore new ideas.Do not be afraid of the beyond.This is learning to make good choices.

(1)

What is the main purpose of the passage?

[  ]

A.

To offer advice on college life.

B.

To explain why college life is exciting.

C.

To describe the importance of college life.

D.

To persuade you to go to college.

(2)

According to the text, why is it exciting to begin college life?

[  ]

A.

Because you will have more freedom at college.

B.

Because you will no longer be afraid of the beyond.

C.

Because you prepare for your future career and life there.

D.

Because professors there will provide you with many new ideas.

(3)

What is the probable meaning of the underlined word “know-how”?

[  ]

A.

An understanding of how things are going at college.

B.

Practical knowledge about how to behave and what to do at college.

C.

College halls where rules and regulations are presented.

D.

An environment completely different from the one you’re used to.

(4)

According to the text, college students _________.

[  ]

A.

needn’t learn from those who went to college before them

B.

spend as much time as possible on social activities

C.

should know what they have right for on campus

D.

are supposed to repeat or replace at least one course

答案:1.C;2.A;3.B;4.C;
解析:

(1)

根据第一段中的最后一句话“Your future begins here.”可知答案是C项。

(2)

在文章中,作者一开始就介绍了,上大学是一个令人兴奋的新的生活,然后就各方面向读者提出一些忠告。

(3)

该词所在的句子是一个并列句,前后分句间是转折关系,根据后句的意思可知前面的know-how应该是B项的意思。

(4)

此题是细节判断题。A项与作者的建议正好相反;作者劝读者花一些时间参加社会活动,并不是花尽可能多的时间,所以B项错;而根据文章中的“Who has right for what”可知C项对;You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course.的意思是“当你每次重新修某门课程或换新课程时,你需要花钱。”,这并不是说你必须至少重学或换一门课程,所以D项错。

  When a rather dirty, poorly dressed person kneels(下跪)at your feet and puts out his hands to beg for a few coins, do you hurry on, not knowing what to do, or do you feel sad and hurriedly hand over some money?What should our attitude to beggars be?There can be no question that the world is full of terribly sad stories.It must be terrible to have no idea where our next meal is going to come from.It seems cruel not to give some money to beggars.

  Certainly, most of the world’s great religions(宗教)order us to be open-hearted and share what we have with those less fortunate than ourselves.But has the world changed?Maybe what was morally(道德方面)right in the old days is no longer the best idea.When one knew exactly who in the village had suffered misfortune(不幸)and needed help, quite a few people will not give to beggars.Let us look at their arguments.

  First, some believe that many city beggars dress up on purpose to look pitiable(可怜的)and actually make a good living from begging.Giving to beggars only encourages this sort of evil(恶行).Secondly, there is the worry that the money you give will be spent on beer, wine or drugs.Thirdly, there is the opinion that there is no real excuse for begging.One might be poor, but that is no reason for losing one’s sense of pride and self-dependence.

  Related to this is the opinion that the problem should be dealt with by the government rather than ordinary people.Some people think beggars should go to the local government department and receive help.

  It is hard to come to any final conclusion;there are various cases and we must deal with them differently.A few coins can save a life in some situations, and even if the money is wasted, that does not take away the moral goodness of the giver.

(1)

What is mainly discussed in the passage?

[  ]

A.

Moral deeds of people.

B.

Moral goodness of the giver.

We don’t meet with those who need help any more.

Now it is the government’s duty to help the beggars.
