    Beginning college is exciting: new ideas to explore, new challenges to be met and many decisions 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 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.
    The following you may find 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 became 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 data 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’s 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 your student residence（住处）? Who has the right for what? What do you need to complete to graduate?
    ·Write the word “STUDY” on the walls of our bedroom and bathroom, and maybe it will help to 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 course. 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.
    小题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.
    小题2:According to the passage, 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.
    小题3:The underlined word “know-how” refers to _____
    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

    小题1:作者一一列举了大学生活当中应该注意的事项，很明显是在建议当今的大
    学生要有目的，要有规划，更要充实，不要虚度大学生活。
    小题2:从第一段可知，伴随着大学生活的开始，新思想开始出现，新挑战开始面临，新未来开
    始萌芽，故C项最符合题意。
    小题3:综合第二段判断，作者指的some of us这类人属于已经很好地吸收了前人大学经验的人，
    因此他们肯定知道自己该做些什么，不该做什么，也正是对know-how的解释。
    小题4:推理判断题。综合前两段可知，大学生应该知道在校园里要为什么而奋斗。A项与原
    文的意思相反，B项太片面了，D项加了“at least”太绝对化，均与题意不符。

    Special trees that grow faster, fight pollution, produce better wood, and even sense chemical attacks are being planted by scientists in the US.
    When 40 per cent of Hawaii's US$14 million-a-year papaya (木瓜)industry was destroyed by a virus five years ago, work began on creating genetically engineered(转基因的) trees.
    Researchers successfully introduced seeds that were designed to resist the virus. Since then, more and more people have been testing genetically engineered trees.
    Some researchers put special bacteria into trees to help them grow faster and produce better wood. Others are trying to create trees that can clean polluted soil.
    Meanwhile fruit farmers are looking for trees that are strong enough to resist worms, and paper companies want trees that produce more wood and therefore more paper.
    The Pentagon (五角大楼) even gave the researchers US$500,000 this year after they developed a pine tree that changes its colours if it senses a chemical attack..
    So far, the poplar, eucalyptus (杨树与桉树), apple and coffee trees are among those being engineered. All this can be done today because we have a better understanding of tree genomes(基因组).
    However, some people fear that the genetically engineered trees will cause dangerous results. They are worried that the new trees will breed with natural species and change the balance of the forest environment.
    "It could be destructive," said Jim Diamond, an environmentalist. "Trees are what is left of our natural environment and home to many endangered species."
    But researchers insist that science could give nature a fighting chance against both natural and man-made dangers.
    They hope to answer the critics by stopping the new trees from breeding, so their effect on the environment can be controlled.
    小题1:What trees are NOT the ones that scientists are planting in the US?
    A．Trees that worms can't hurt.
    B．Trees that can protect themselves at a chemical attack.
    C．Trees that can resist wind better.
    D．Trees that can improve soil conditions.
    小题2:What caused the American scientists to work on special trees?
    A．They think science could give nature a fighting chance against both natural and man-made dangers.
    B．Great numbers of trees have been lost due to attacks by viruses.
    C．Researchers successfully introduced seeds designed to resist the virus.
    D．Tree genomes are mapped out so scientists know how to improve trees.
    小题3:Which of the following was probably the first kind of trees being engineered?
    A．Papaya.B．Pine.C．Apple. D．Poplar.
    小题4:The best title of the passage is         .
    A．The improvement of environment
    B．The side-effects of special trees
    C．The development of special trees
    D．the program of genetically engineered trees

    阅读理解: 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。
    Melissa Poe was 9 years old when she began a campaign for a cleaner environment by writing a letter to the then President Bush. Through her own efforts, her letter was reproduced on over 250 donated billboards across the country.
    The response to her request for help was so huge that Poe established Kids For A Cleaner Environment (Kids F.A.C.E.) in 1989. There are now 300,000 members of Kids FACE worldwide and is the world's largest youth environmental organization.
    Poe has also asked the National Park Service to carry out a "Children's Forest" project in every national park. In 1992, she was invited as one of only six children in the world to speak at the Earth Summit in Brazil as part of the Voices of the Future Program. In 1993, she was given a Caring Award for her efforts by the Caring Institute.

Ongoing tree-planting projects include Kid's Yards – the creation of backyard wildlife habitats (栖息地) and now Kids F.A.C.E. is involved in the exciting Earth Odyssey, which is a great way to start helping.
    "Starting the club turned out to be a way to help people get involved with the environment. Club members started doing things like recycling, picking up litter and planting trees as well as inviting other kids to join their club."
    "We try to tell kids that it's not OK to be lazy," she explains. "You need to start being a responsible, environmentally friendly person now, right away, before you become a resource-sucking adult."

    Photographs are everywhere. They decorate (装饰) the walls of homes and are used in stores for sales of different goods. The news is filled with pictures of fires, floods, and special events. Photos record the beauties of nature. They can also bring things close that are far away. Through photos, people can see wild animals, cities in foreign lands, and even the stars in outer space. Photos also tell stories.
    Reporting the news through photos is called photojournalism. At times photojournalists tell their stories through a single picture. At other times, they use a group of pictures to tell a story. Each picture is like a chapter in a book, which can do more than record the facts. It can also be a strong force for social change.
    Jacob Riis was among the first photojournalists. He took pictures of parts of New York City where the poor lived. Riis believed that poverty(贫穷)　caused crime, and he used photos to help him prove his point. A few years later, the photos of small children working in factories by Lewis Hine shocked the public. Hine’s pictures helped bring about laws to protect such children.
    Hundreds of pictures may have to be taken in order to get one or two really good photos. It takes science to have the photo come out clearly and art to make a photo that has a good design and expresses feeling. Photojournalists make an actual record of what they see. A photo, however, can be both a work of art and an actual record. It can record an important event as a beautiful or exciting picture.
    As historical and artistic documents(文献) ,photos can become more important over time. Today photojournalists still have their pictures appear in newspapers and magazines. They also publish(发表) them in books and on the Internet.
    小题1:The underlined word “They” in the first paragraph refers to        .
    A．beautiesB．photosC．goodsD．events
    小题2:The photos of the small children by Hine show us that photos           .
    A．are also works of artB．are popular ways of reporting news
    C．often shock the publicD．can serve as a force for social change
    小题3:What can we learn from the passage?
    A．News with pictures is encouraging.B．Photos help people improve
    C．News photos mean history in a sense.D．People prefer reading news with pictures.
    小题4:The text is mainly about      .
    A．telling the story through pictureB．decorating the walls of homes
    C．publishing historical papersD．expressing feeling through pictures

    Special Bridges Help Animals Cross the Road
    -- Reported by Sheila Carrick
    Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side.
    Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more concerned with how the grizzly bear and mountain lion can cross the road.
    Millions of animals die each year on U.S. roads, the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U.S. today. The main reason? Roadkill.
    "Ecopassages" may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are paths both over and under roads. "These ecopassages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid human conflicts," said Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Conservation Society.
    But do animals actually use the ecopassages? The answer is yes. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an ecopassage that went under a highway. This showed that the lion used the passage.
    Builders of some ecopassages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. Animals seem to be catching on. Animals as different as salamanders and grizzly bears are using the bridges and underpasses.
    The next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around. You might see an animal overpass!
    小题1:The writer uses the example of “ocelots” to show that_________.
    A．wild animals have become more dangerous
    B．the driving conditions have improved greatly
    C．the measure for protecting wildlife fails to work
    D．an increasing number of animals are killed in road accidents
    小题2:From the news story, we know an ecopassage is_________.
    A．an underground path for cars B．a fence built for the safety of the area
    C．a bridge for animals to get over a riverD．a pass for animals to cross the road
    小题3:When the writer says that animals seem “to be catching on”, he means_________.
    A．animals begin to realize the dangers on the road
    B．animals begin to learn to use ecopassages
    C．animals are crossing the road in groups
    D．animals are increasing in number
    小题4:The writer asks visitors and drivers to look around when traveling because_________.
    A．wild animals may attack carsB．wild animals may jam the road
    C．they may see wild animals in the parkD．they may see wild animals on ecopassages

    WASHINGTON—Laura Straub is a very worried woman. Her job is to find families for French teenagers who expect to live with American families in the summer.
    It is not easy, even hopeless.
    “We have many children left to place—40 out of 75,” said Straub, who works for a Paris-based foreigner-exchange program started 50 years ago. Family life was more than accommodating (提供膳宿). For one thing, more mothers stayed at home. But now, increasing numbers of women work outside the home. Exchange-student programs have struggled in recent years to sign up host (主人) families for the 30 000 teenagers who every year come from abroad to spend a school year in the United States, as well as the thousands more who take part in summer programs.
    School systems in many parts of the U.S., unhappy about accepting non-taxpaying students, have also strictly limited the number of exchange students they accepted. At the same time, the idea of hosting foreign students is becoming less exotic.
    In search for host families, who usually receive no pay, exchange programs are increasingly broadening their requests to include everyone from young couples to retirees.
    “We are open to many different types of families,” said Vickie Weiner, eastern area director for ASSE, a 25-year-old program that sends about 30 000 teenagers on school-year exchange programs worldwide.
    For elderly people, exchange students “keep us young—they really do”, said Jen Foster, who is hosting 16-year-old Nina Post from Denmark.
    小题1:The underlined word “exotic” means _________.
    A．difficultB．wonderfulC．excitingD．accommodating
    小题2:According to the text, why was it easier for Laura Straub to find American families for foreign students?
    A．More mothers wasn’t working outside and was able to afford to look after children .
    B．American school systems were better than now.
    C．Foreign students paid hosting families a lot of money.
    D．The government was happy because it could gain tax.
    小题3:Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
    A．All the families can host foreign students.
    B．Only young couples can host foreign students.
    C．Only those who were retired can host foreign students.
    D．Exchange programs are open to many different types of families including everyone from young couples to retirees.
    小题4:Which of the following is the best title of this passage?
    A．U.S. Struggle to Find host Families
    B．Idea of Hosting Students is Different
    C．Foreign-exchange Program Is Going on
    D．Exchange Students Keep Old People Young

    Half of all bosses say a lack of sleep makes them irritable (易怒的) and prone to(有……倾向的) shout at their staff, a study said.
    One in five managers also said being kept awake at night meant they were more likely to make mistakes, the Mori poll of 1,006 people revealed(显示).
    Some 48% of people aged 35 to 44 said they did not get enough sleep compared to a national average 39%.
    Among that age group, people with young children and managerial (管理的) jobs were most likely to suffer. 
    The report, commissioned (委托) by the think tank De­mos and Ikea, said the issue of sleep had been forgotten in the work / life balance debate.
    Report author Charles Leadbeater said, "On any working day, a quarter of all managers in Britain are likely to be in a bad mood because they have not slept well. "
    "These sleep-deprived and shouty managers with a tend­ency to make mistakes are responsible for millions of British workers. It’s hardly a recipe for good management. "
    And Mr. Leadbeater called on the government and em­ployers to take action.
    A small loss of sleep is likely to have a big impact on people who lead stressful lives.
    "Stressed out parents are already not sleeping enough. They are the people most likely to have their sleep disrupted and they are least able to recover."  
    Apart from children keeping their parents awake, worrying about work is the biggest cause of wakefulness at night among managers.
    Women are five times more likely than men to lose sleep because their partners snore (打呼噜).
    The report predicted that there was likely to be a growing market of　sleep-deprived people, with an increase in "public napping".
    Opportunities to take a nap at work are also likely to in­crease, and the report recommended that employers take their responsibility for ensuring employees were well slept more se­riously.
    Peter Jelkeby, marketing manager at Ikea, said the re­search confirmed suspicions Britons were not getting enough sleep.  
    And he added: "This is having a detrimental effect on our society as a whole. "
    9. Which of following is true according to the text?
    A. Half of the people say a lack of sleep makes them irrita­ble.
    B. 20% managers said being kept awake at night meant they were more likely to make mistakes.
    C. Some 48% of people said they did not get enough sleep.
    D. People with young children and managerial jobs were most likely to suffer.
    10. What does the underlined word "detrimental" mean?
    A 良好的.         B.有害的          C.片面的    D.致命的
    11. Who that suffered sleep disrupted are least able to recover?
    A. The bosses.                 B. Managers.
    C. People aged 35 to 44.             D. Stressed out parents.
    12. Apart from children keeping: their parents awake, ________is the biggest cause of wakefulness at night among managers.
    A. worrying about work             B. their partners’ snoring

    阅读下面短文，根据第73至第75小题的具体要求，简要回答问题。
    Every January， Breckenridge hosts the International Show Sculpture Championships. Fourteen teams travel from all over the world to
    Switzerland to compete. Teams sculpt for sixty-five hours over five days. Each team hopes that when the time is up， its sculpture will be judged the best
    As the championship begins， the fourteen teams are faced with huge blocks of snow that weigh twenty tons each. The sculptors bring out their
    vorite tools that work best on the hard iced snow， but they are not allowed to employ tools that use electricity.
    Most teams are inspired by what they have seen in daily life. For example， one team carved a teapot with tea pouring out. Another team sculpted a little cat on its hind feed（后脚） reaching into a fish bowl complete with water ripples（涟漪） and a crab（螃蟹） trying to attack the cat. In 2006， Team USA sculpted a golden dog looking at its image reflected in a mirror. To create the effect that the little dog saw its reflection in the glass， the artists carved two dogs facing each other with their paws （脚爪） touching.
    As the final hours of the competition tick by， exhausted team members add last-minute details. They use small brooms to brush off snow caught in tiny holes. One team member counts down the last five minutes while others are busy cleaning up the tools. If they leave any tools behind， they will be out. When the whistle blows， everyone must step away from the sculpture. The judges then vote on creativity， technical skill， and visual impact（视觉效果） of the designs
    In 2006， Team USA took firs place for their golden dog sculpture titled “Discovery”。 But the competition is not just about medals and ribbon. “It‘s not about the prize，” said Rob Neyland， Team USA’s captain. “It‘s about touching the audience.”
    Every year， as the championship ends， each team is already dreaming of the next masterpiece it will design.
    小题1:What kind of tools are the sculptures NOT permitted to use？（回答词数不超过6个）
    小题2:What gives the sculptors ideas for their creative work？（回答词数不超过9个）
    小题3:Why did Team USA win the competition in 2006？（回答词数不超过15个）
