Have you ever got stuck with unwanted courses or a class schedule that cannot be changed? If so, that's because you don't know how to select the perfect sch
edule. But by following a few simple steps, you can begin any term with the right courses at the most convenient times.
First, you must find the right courses. These are the ones that have the least amount of work, the fewest tests and the kindest professors. Ask your friends about courses in which they received A's after attending only 70 percent of the classes. Ask around, too, to see which instructors have given the same tests for the last fifteen years. Photocopies of these tests are usually cheap and can be easily found in school. Then, pick up a copy of the master schedule and study it carefully. Find the course titles that mean an easy pass for a painless subject.
Look for titles like “Arts and Crafts for Beginners” and “Rock Music of the 1950s”.
Next, when you have got lists of easy instructors and subjects, you can begin to select your time periods. If you stay up late in order to watch old movies, you may want a daily schedule that begins no sooner than noon. You should schedule only afternoon courses, too, if you're one of those people who hate to leave a warm bed in the morning. On the other hand, if you are a person who gets out of bed at dawn, you may want to get your classes out of the way as early as possible. That way you have the rest of the day free. Morning classes are also necessary if you are a soap opera(肥皂剧) fan.
Finally, you want your schedule to pass through registration successfully. The main way to do this is to register(注册) early. If a course does happen to be closed because you simply couldn't register at 7:00 am, you may still be able to get in. Talk to the professor and tell him or her that a serious and hardworking student like yourself would be a shining example to other students. Be sure to carry a list of back-up courses to registration, though, just in case one of your chosen classes changes professors or time periods.
By following these suggestions, any student can pick the perfect class schedule. College can thus become an almost pleasant activity.
1.Which of the following statements is true?
A.You can get copies of tests if you are willing to pay the price.
B.“Rock Music of the 1950s” may be an easy course.

3.If a course happens to be closed, you should  ________ .
A.register at 7:00 am               B.sit in on the class anyway

While parents, particularly mothers, have always been attached to their infants (婴儿), societal conditions frequently made this attachment difficult to maintain (保持). First of all, the high infant death rate in the premodern times meant that such attachments often ended in hopelessness. Perhaps to prevent the sadness that infant death caused, a number of societal practices developed which worked against early attachment of mother and child.
One of these premodern attachment-discouraging practices was to leave infants unnamed until they had survived into the second year. Another practice that discouraged maternal (母亲的) attachment was tightly wrapping (包裹) infants. Wrapping effectively prevented the close physical interactions like stroking (抚摸) and kissing that are so much a part of modern mothers' and fathers' affection for their infants.
A third practice which had the same distancing effect was wet-nursing. Breast-feeding (母乳哺育) was not popular among the well-to-do in the early modern times; infants were often fed by wet nurses hired for the purpose. In some places, such as nineteenth-century France, city infants were sent to wet nurses in the country. Often a wet nurse would feed her own child first, leaving little milk for the city infant—who, in many cases, died. In Rouen, the death rate for children sent to a wet nurse was 35 percent.
68. Babies were unnamed until they were two so that _______.
A. an old social custom could be kept up        B. maternal attachment could be maintained
C. they could have better chances to survive   D. their parents would not be too sad if they died
69. Why were babies wrapped?
A. To protect them from the cold.          B. To distance their mothers from them.
C. To make them feel more comfortable. D. To make it easy for their mothers to hold them.
70. Wet nurses were women who________.
A. babysat city infants                           B. fed babies of other families
C. sent their babies to the country           D. failed to look after their babies
71. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Societal Conditions in Premodern Times
B. Practices of Reducing Maternal Attachment
C. Poor Health Service and High Infant Death Rate
D. Differences between Modem and Premodern Parents

Few people would question the value of taking part in sports for young people.With proper training,supervision,protective equipment and techniques,and an proper emphasis on winning,sports can develop a healthy body and spirit and a life-long interest in being active and fit .Without such measures,childhood sports can lead to injuries and even paralysis or death.
Even in the best conditions,no activity can be risk—free.But most serious hazards are preventable.Cyclists and football players can reduce their risks by wearing helmets;hockey players by wearing masks;basketball and tennis players by wearing eye guards;baseball players by wearing batting helmets.
Besides,risks to individual players can often be found,and thus prevented,through a properly performed medical exam before a child plays.For accidents that may not be preventable,having an emergency plan and first-aid equipment,and someone trained to use the equipment,can be lifesaving.
Still,each year,according to the American College of Sports Medicine,more than 775,000 children under 14 are treated in emergency rooms for sports injuries,nearly half of them preventable.An estimated 300,000 athletes experience exercise—related head illnesses each year,and almost all of them should have been avoided.
Further,from half to three—fourths of sports-related concussions(脑震荡) are never even diagnosed;the injured are often sent back in to play too soon and put at risk of another more serious brain—damaging concussion.To help reduce these risks, the National Center for Sports Safety, with the National Athletic Trainers’ Association, offers a three-hour online safety course for coaches for $28 at www.SportsSafety.org.
1.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.All the accidents can be prevented.
B.All the accidents cannot be prevented.
C.Lives can be saved so long as there is proper equipment.
D.Lives cannot be saved even if there is proper equipment.
2.What does the underlined word “hazards”(in paragraph 2)mean?
A.mistakes          B.diseases           C.dangers            D.situations
3.It is implied in the passage that        .
A.prevention of injuries is not paid enough attention to
B.children under 14 are more easily hurt in sports
C.most head illnesses are related with exercise
D.none of the head illnesses should have happened
4.What can coaches mainly learn from the online safety course?
A.How to cure brain-damaging concussion.
B.How to diagnose brain-damaging concussion.
C.How to predict the possibility of brain damage.
D.How to deal with the injured properly.

The physical memory dump(电脑死机) error is a big problem that affects even the most advanced computer systems.Although it's quite a rare error, it's one of the most stopping what you're doing and restarting your computer—making you lose all your unsaved data.This is a big problem, but there is actually a very easy way to fix it.
There are two reasons why the physical memory dump happens.The first is pretty simple and is to do with the "hardware", and if any of these pieces are not fit for your system, it will cause the physical memory dump.So, if you've recently added any hardware to your PC, then take that out and see if it works.
The other reason is your system, the "registry".The registry is a big database(数据库)that operates in the background of Windows, storing all sorts of settings and information about your PC.The problem with the registry is that since it has so many important files inside, it's constantly got hundreds of files open every time you use your PC.And because there are so many files to open at once, Windows is constantly getting confused, leading it to save many of these files in the wrong way.These files go wrong when saved wrongly, making them difficult for your computer to read.However, if it can't read the files at all, it has no choice but to stop everything it's doing and restart your PC.This is why the physical memory dump error appears so easily—because when a registry file is so wrong that it can't be read, your computer needs to refresh itself immediately.
This latter reason for causing the physical memory dump is actually extremely common and the likelihood is that your PC is suffering from it, if you're seeing this error.Luckily, it's also incredibly easy to fix—you just need to use a software tool called a "registry cleaner" to go through the registry and fix all the problems in there.
72.From the text we can infer that ________.
A.the dump error often happens to your PC
B.the dump canbe dealt with easily
C.only the advanced computers suffers from the error
D.the dump error can cause the data in your PC to be lost
73.The reason that your PC has the dump error is that ___________.
A.the the hardware loses its memory
B.your Windows needs to be upgraded
C.you have saved wrong files in the PC
D.you have stored too many files in the PC.
74.What’s problem with the registry when your PC goes wrong?
A.The register can’t read the files correctly.
B.It must open 100 files every time you use your PC.
C.The register doesn’t agree with the database.
D.The register must save many important files inside.
75.What does a registry cleaner means?
A.A softwar which can help you save time.
B.A software which can remove unnecessary files
C.A software which can repair the machine.
D.a software which makes your PC down.

At one time, computers were expected largely to remove the need for paper copies of documents(文件)because they could be stored electronically. But for all the texts that are written, stored and sent electronically, a lot of them are still ending up on paper.
It is difficult to measure the quantity of paper used as a result of Internet-connected computers, although just about anyone who works in an office can tell you that when e-mail is introduced, the printers start working overtime. “I feel in my bones this revolution is causing more trees to be cut down,” says Ted Smith of the Earth Village Organisation.
Perhaps the best sign of how computer and Internet use pushes up demand for paper comes from the high-tech industry itself, which sees printing as one of its most promising new markets. Several Internet companies have been set up to help small businesses print quality documents from a computer. Earlier this week Hewlett-Packard Co. announced a plan to develop new technologies that will enable people to print even more so they can get a hard copy of a business document, a medical record or just a one-line e-mail, even if they are nowhere near a computer. As the company sees it, the more use of the Internet the greater demand for printers
Does all this mean environmental concerns (环境问题) have been forgotten? Some activists suggest people have been led to believe that a lot of dangers to the environment have gone away. “I guess people believe that the problem is taken care of, because of recycling (回收利用),”said Kelly Quirke, director of the Rainforest Action Network in San Francisco. Yet Quirke is hopeful that high-tech may also prove helpful. He says printers that print on both sides are growing in popularity. The action group has also found acceptable paper made from materials other than wood, such as agricultural waste.
72.   The growing demand for paper in recent years is largely due to ___________.
A.    the rapid development of small businesses    B. the opening up of new markets
C.    the printing of high quality copies               D. the increased use of the Internet
73.   Environmentalists believe one possible way of dealing with the paper situation is ______.
A.    to encourage printing more quality documents
B.    to develop new printers using recycled paper
C.    to find new materials for making paper
D.    to plant more fast-growing trees
74.   Hewlett-Packard Co. has decided to develop new technologies because ___________.
A.    people are concerned about the environment
B.    printers in many offices are working overtime
C.    small companies need more hard copies
D.    they see a growing market for printers
75.   What would be the best title for the text?
A. Computers and Printers                                B. E-mail and the Business World
C. Internet Revolution and Environment                D. Modern Technology and New Markets

When next year’s crop of high-school graduates arrive at Oxford University in the fall of 2009, they’ll be joined by a new face: Andrew Hamilton, the 55-year-old provost(教务长) of Yale, who’ll become Oxford’s vice-chancellor——a position equal to university president in America.
Hamilton isn’t the only educator crossing the Atlantic. Schools in France, Egypt, Singapore, etc. have also recently made top-level hires from abroad. Higher education has become a big and competitive business nowadays, and like so many businesses, it’s gone global. Yet the talent flow isn’t universal. High-level personnel(人员) tend to head in only one direction: outward from America.
The chief reason is that American schools don’t tend to seriously consider looking abroad. For example, when the board of the University of Colorado searched for a new president, it wanted a leader familiar with the state government, a major source of the university’s budget. “We didn’t do any global consideration,” says Patricia Hayes, the board’s chair. The board finally picked Bruce Benson, a 69-year-old Colorado businessman and political activist(活动家) who is likely to do well in the main task of modern university presidents: fund-raising. Fund-raising is a particularlly American thing, since U.S. schools rely heavily on donations. The fund-raising ability is largely a product of experience and necessity.
Many European universities, meanwhile, are still mostly dependent on government funding. But government support has failed to keep pace with rising student numbers. The decline in government support has made fund-raising an increasingly necessary ability among administrators (管理人员), and has hiring committees hungry for Americans.
In the past few years, well-known schools around the world have joined the trend. In 2003, when Cambridge University appointed Alison Richard, another former Yale provost, as its vice-chancellor, the university publicly stressed that in her previous job she had overseen “a major strengthening of Yale’s financial position.”
Of course, fund-raising isn’t the only skill outsiders offer. The globalization of education means more universities will be seeking heads with international experience of some kind to promote international programs and attract a global student body. Foreigners can offer a fresh perspective(视角) on established practices.
小题1:What is the current trend in higher education discussed in the passage?
A.Institution worldwide are hiring administrators from the US.
B.A lot of activists are being hired as administrators
C.American universities are enrolling more international students.
D.University presidents are paying more attention to funding-raising.
小题2: What is the chief consideration of American universities when hiring top-level administrators?
A.The political correctness.B.Their ability to raise funds.
C.Their fame in academic circles.D.Their administrative experience.
小题3: What do we learn about European universities from the passage?
A.The tuitions(学费) they charge h ave been rising considerably.
B.Their operation is under strict government control.
C.They are strengthening their position by globalization.
D.Most of their money comes from the government.
小题4:In what way do top-level administrators from abroad contribute to university development?
A.They can improve the university’s image.
B.They will bring with them more international personnel.
C.They will view a lot of things from a new angle.
D.They can set up new academic subjects.
小题5:Which of the following would make the best title of the passage?
A.Higher Education GlobalizationB.Global Headhunting In Higher Education
C.Global Higher Education CooperationD.Universal Higher Education Development

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
People with less education suffer fewer stressful days, according to a report in the current issue of the Journal of Health and Social Behavior.
However, the study also found that when less-educated people did suffer stress it was more severe and had a stronger effect on their health.
From this, researchers have concluded that the day-to-day factors that cause stress are regular. Where you are in society determines the kinds of problems that you have each day, and how well you will cope with them.
The research team interviewed a national sample of 1, 031 adults daily for eight days about their stress level and health. People without a high school diploma reported stress on 30 percent of the study days, people with a high school degree reported stress 38 percent of the time, and people with college degrees reported stress 44 percent of the time.
“Less advantaged people are less healthy on a daily basis and are more likely to have downward turns in their health.” leading researcher, Dr. Joseph Grzywacz of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, said in a prepared statement. “The downward turns in health were connected with daily stressors (紧张刺激物), and the effect of daily stressors on their health is much more damaging for the less advantaged. ”
“If something happens every day, maybe it’s not seen as a stressor.” Grzywacz says. “Maybe it is just life.”
56.Stress level is closely related to           .
A. family size B. social position    C. body weight      D. work experience
57.Which group reported the biggest number of stressful days?
A. People without any education.     B. People without high school degrees.
C. People with high school degrees.     D. People with college degrees.
58.The less advantaged people are, the greater            .
A. the effect of stress on their health is B. the effect of education on their health is
C. the level of their education is      D. the degree of their health concern is
59.Less-educated people report fewer days of stress possibly because          .
A. they don’t want to tell truth                 B. they don’t want to face the truth
C. stress is too common a factor in their life D. heir stress is much greater
