         Wugging, or web-use giving, describes the act of giving to charity at no cost to the user. By using
    Everyclick.com, which is being added to a number of university computers across the UK, students can
    raise money every time they search, but it won't cost them a penny.
         Research shows that students are extremely passionate about supporting charity - 88% of full time
    students have used the Internet to give to charity. This age group is often the least likely to have their own
    income. 19% of 22 to 24 year olds have short-term debts of more than ￡5,000. With rising personal debt
    levels in this age group, due to university tuition fees or personal loans and a lack of long-term savings,
    traditional methods of donating to charity are often not appealing or possible. Beth Truman, a 21 year old
    recent university graduate, has used everyclick.com to donate to her chosen charity, the RSPCA, for two
    years and has seen the "wugging" grow in popularity with students."When you're at university you become
    more socially aware, but it's sometimes hard to give to others when you have little money yourself," says
    Beth."Wugging is great for people in this age group as it allows them to use the technology on a daily basis
    to give to charity, without costing them a single penny."
          Wugging is perfect for people who want to be more socially aware and supportive but don't feel they
    have the means to do so. Students using the web can raise money for causes they care about without
    costing them anything in terms of time or money, and charities get a valuable source of funding. Everyclick.
    com works like any other search engine, allowing users to search for information, news and images but users
    can decide which of the UK's 170,000 charities they would like to support through their clicks. Everyclick.
    com then makes monthly payments to every registered charity. Launched in June 2005, Everyclick.com is
    now the eighth largest search engine and one of the busiest charity websites in the UK.
    1. In the case of charity, everyclick.com ______.
    A. frees students of the financial worries
    B. receives much money from students
    C. offers valuable information to students
    D. praises students for their money-raising
    2. What does Beth Truman think of the "wugging" movement?
    A. It makes Everyclick.com popular in the UK.
    B. It becomes easy to do charity because of it.
    C. It results in students' more social awareness.
    D. It helps students to save money.
    3. From the passage, we can conclude that ______.
    A. most full time students do charity on the Internet every day
    B. Everyclick.com helps students pay for the college education
    C. "wugging" is a win-win idea for both students and charities
    D. Everyclick.com is the most successful search engine in the UK

    第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每题2分，满分40分）
    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。
    The National Outline for Medium and Long Term Education Reform and Development (2010 - 20) was released over the weekend. Here are some of the highlights:
    Four – percent effort
    The government says spending on education will be 4 percent of GDP by 2012. globally, average spending on education is about 4.5% of GDP. China spend 3,33% in 2008. according to Hu Angang, of Tsinghua University’s Center for China Studies, even if China reaches that goal, it will only rank about 100 th out of 188 countries.
    Administrative rank
    Administrative rankings for school leaders are to be phased out to tackle the bureaucracy (官僚机构) problem that limits educational development, according to Cheng Fangping, of the national Institute for Educational Research. Areas like teaching programs, scientific research, and technological development will be more independent.
    Vocational Education
    The system will be free of charge. According to Wu Yan, of Beijing Institute of Educational Sciences, this will be key to developing China’s production capacity and will improve poor people’s lives dramatically.
    Entering college
    Universities could eventually have the freedom to choose some of their own high school applicants. Normally, students are accepted based on the uniform national exam scores. Also, students who agree to go to a remote area could be admitted to university under special circumstances. The most likely change could come on the college entrance English test, which might be modeled on the IELTS or TOEFL. Students will be able to take it several times and pick their best score.
    56．Which of the following is true in the future according to the passage?
    A．Applicants could take the IELTS or TOEFL instead of the college entrance English test.
    B．Colleges will be given the right to choose all of their own applicants.
    C．Vocational education will be party free to make people’s lives better.
    D．Applicants could sit for the college entrance English test more than once.
    57．Which of the following words is closest in meaning to “uniform” in the last paragraph?
    A．formal      B．official     C．same D．united
    58．We can learn from the passage even though our country spends 4% of GDP on education in 2012, ________.
    A．there will still be 188 countries ahead of China in this aspect
    B．China will certainly overtake the global average spending on education
    C．there might be nearly 100 countries ahead of China in this aspect
    D．China will be the 100 th country to spend over the global average on education
    59．From the third paragraph, we can infer that________.
    A．school leaders will have more freedom to manage the school
    B．schools will have more limits from the government
    C．School administrative rankings are to be strengthened to solve the bureaucracy problem
    D．schools and research centers will be fully independent from the government

    The Yangtze River, the biggest river in China, starts with the Tuotuo River at the Roof of the World, Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, takes in countless rivers, and flows eastward across the inner part of China. With a total length of more than 6,300 kilometers, it marches toward the East China Sea, singing the songs of the four seasons with its waves. The Yangtze River, only next to the Amazon and the Nile, is a cradle that breeds the ancient civilization of the Chinese nation.
    The Three Gorges have showed the magic workings of nature with their beautiful mountains and waters. The peaks and rocks on the two sides are telling us the history of the region in the past billion years. Every year, many visitors around the world are attracted by the charming thousand-year-long history of the region, the great ancient relics of human civilization, and the mysterious folk tales.
    Sandwiched between the mountains, the Three Gorges run across Fengjie and Wushan Mountain in Sichuan Province and Badong, Zigui and Yichang in Hubei Province, extending 193 kilometers long to include Qutang Gorge, Wu Gorge and Xiling Gorge. The City of White Emperor in Fengjie is the important passage of the west part of the Three Gorges. Nanjinguan in Yichang is the important gateway of the east part. Along the banks of the Yangtze River, the high peaks, overhanging rocks tower, rise into the clouds, dangerous cliffs seem to reach the sky, waterfalls are spraying and sparkling, clouds and thin fogs are curling, rapids and torrents are boiling. On the whole, Xiling Gorge is dangerous for its shallow shores and rapid currents. However, Yichang is regarded by most people as the best start point to tour the Three Gorges.
