阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
The UK has a well-respected higher education system and some of the top universities and research institutions in the world. But to those who are new to it all, it can be overwhelming and sometimes confusing.
October is usually the busiest month in the academic calendar. Universities have something called Freshers' Week for their newcomers. It's a great opportunity to make new friends, join lots of clubs and settle into university life.
However, having just left the comfort of home and all your friends behind, the prospect of meeting lots of strangers in big halls can be nerve-wracking. Where do you start? Who should you make friends with? Which clubs should you join?
Luckily, there will be thousands of others in the same boat as you worrying about starting their university social life on the right foot. So just take it all in slowly. Don't rush into anything that you'll regret for the next three years.
Here are some top tips from past students on how to survive Freshers' Week:
- Learn rules. Make sure you are aware of British social etiquette. Have a few wine glasses and snacks handy for your housemates and friends.
- Be hospitable. Sometimes cups of tea or even slices of toast can give you a head start in making friends.
- Be sociable. The more active you are, the more likely you'll be to meet new people than if you're someone who never leaves their room.
- Bring a doorstop. Keep your door open when you're in and that sends positive messages to your neighbors that you're friendly.
So with a bit of clever planning and motivation, Freshers' Week can give you a great start to your university life and soon you'll be passing on your wisdom to next year's new recruits.

The first day we go to high school, our head teacher told us the news which we needed to take the military training. We were all surprising at the news, because of it was so hot outside.

We became stronger and made friends with our military instructor.

These are common foods in your kitchen that possess sun-protection compounds to aid your current sun-protection routine. Check them out to deal with-or prevent-summer sunburn.
1. Oatmeal (燕麦片)
Burn-fighting effect: When your whole body is sunburned, oatmeal provides the best type of relief.
Sunburn treatment: Break oatmeal into very small pieces, add it to cool water and apply it every two to four hours.
2. Fat-free milk
Burn-fighting effect: The milk creates a protein film on your skin that will help ease the discomfort of fresh sunburn.
Sunburn treatment: Apply cool, not cold, milk to your skin using a clean cloth. Apply compresses(敷布)for 15 or 20 minutes, and repeat every two to four hours.
3. Strawberries
Burn-fighting effect: Strawberry juice helps reduce the pain from sunburn.
Sunburn treatment: Crush a few ripened strawberries and spread your skin for natural relief. Wash them after a few minutes. If you’d rather not go the fruit route to avoid stickiness, make a paste out of cornstarch(玉米淀粉) and water and spread it on sunburned skin for relief, too.
4. Tomatoes
Burn-fighting effect: Tomatoes can help protect your skin from sun damage. In one study, volunteers who ate five spoons of tomato paste daily for three months enjoyed 25 per cent more natural protection against sunburn.

Parents and kids today dress alike, listen to the same music, and are friends. Is this a good thing? Sometimes, when Mr. Ballmer and his 16-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, listen to rock music together and talk about interests they both enjoy, such as pop culture, he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager.
“I would never have said to my mom, ‘Hey, the new Weezer album is really great. How do you like it?’” says Ballmer. “There was just a complete gap in taste.”
Music was not the only gulf. From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations, earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits(轨道).
Today, the generation gap has not disappeared, but it is getting narrow in many families. And parent—child activities, from shopping to sports, involve a feeling of trust and friendship that can continue into adulthood.
But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents. “There’s still a lot of strictness and authority(权威) on the part of parents out there, but there is a change happening,” says Kerrie, a psychology professor at Lebanon Valley College. “In the middle of that change, there is a lot of confusion among parents.”
Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these changing roles and attitudes. They see the 1960s as a turning point. Great cultural changes led to more open communication and a more democratic(民主的) process that encourages everyone to have a say.
“My parents were on the ‘before’ side of that change, but today’s parents, the 40-year-olds, were on the ‘after’ side,” explains Mr. Ballmer. “It’s not something easily achieved by parents these days, because life is more difficult to understand or deal with, but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now.”
1.The underlined word “gulf” in Para.3 most probably means _________.
A. distance B. interest
C. similarity D. cooperation
2.The change in today’s parent-child relationship is _________.
A. more confusion among children.
B. less respect for parents from children.
C. new equality between parents and children.
D. more strictness and authority on the part of parents.
3.By saying “today’s parents, the 40-year-olds, were on the ‘after’ side.” the author means that today’s parents _________.
A. can set a limit to the change.
B. follow the trend of the change.
C. fail to take the change seriously.
D. have little difficulty adjusting(适应)to the change.
4.The purpose of the passage is to _________.
A. describe the difficulties today’s parents have met with.
B. discuss the development of the parent—child relationship.
C. suggest the ways to handle the parent—child relationship.
D. compare today’s parent—child relationship with that in the past.

Wisdom teeth are normally the last teeth to appear.This usually happens when people are in their late teen years or early twenties,in other words,when they are older and wiser.
Wisdom teeth can grow into place normally and never cause a problem.But often there is not enough room for them in the mouth;they might crowd other teeth.Sometimes they even push sideways through the gums (齿龈).
An impacted wisdom tooth is one that fails to completely rise through the gums.Wisdom teeth that only partly break through can leave space for bacteria to enter around the teeth.Infection (感染) is a risk in these cases.
Wisdom teeth that are not well lined and become impacted are often removed.The American Dental Association says removal is generally advised when wisdom teeth only partly break through the gums.Removal is also advised if there is a chance that wisdom teeth ate poorly lined.The best time to remove is before the teeth cause any problems or pain.Young adults are the best candidates for wisdom teeth removal.
But why do we have wisdom teeth if we often need to get them removed? One theory has to do with our diets.Scientists say the diet of ancient humans probably required more chewing teeth.Life was probably a little rougher on the teeth back then,too.So it was good to have extras.
1.According to the passage,which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.Just older and wiser people can have wisdom teeth.
B.Wisdom teeth can cause problems if not in their right place.
C.Impacted wisdom teeth can’t grow out of the gum fully.
D.Wisdom teeth that only partly break can get bacterial infections.
2.Wisdom teeth should be removed ________.
A.when they break through the gums
B.when they are below the gums
C.if they are not well lined or get impacted
D.if they take up enough room in the mouth
3.We can learn from the passage that________.
A.impacted wisdom teeth have the risk of getting infected
B.ancient humans need chewing teeth because of their happy life
C.older adults are the best candidates for wisdom teeth removal
D.more chewing teeth are needed for the diet of modern humans
4.The main purpose of the passage is to________.
A.advise B.persuade
C.comment D.introduce

Finally,I entered the university.Because of my careful savings,I did not have to work during the school years.Then,summer came and it was time to work harder than ever.I continued working as a waitress at night,instructed tennis camps several mornings a week and worked as a secretary for a few hours in the afternoons.I even decided to take a class at a community (社区) college.This class at the community college saved me $650.It was an extremely tiring summer and made me anxious to return to my relatively easy life at the university.
During my second and third years of undergraduate schooling,I decided to work about five hours per week in the campus (校园) admissions office answering phones.This provided a little spending money and kept me from drawing my savings out. The overall situation looked hopeful as I approached my senior year as long as I could make as much money as I had the previous summer.I wanted to go to Israel to study for 3 weeks,but I hesitated in making this decision because it would cost me $1,600 more to get the credits in Israel.About two weeks later my mom called to tell me that I had $1,600 in the bank that I had forgotten about!One of my concerns about this trip was not only the cost,but the loss of time to make money;however,I made as much that summer in the ten weeks when I was at home as I had made during the fourteen weeks when I was at home the summer before.The way everything worked together to make this trip possible was one of the most exciting things that have ever happened to me.
This experience has shaped me in many important ways.The first thing that I learned was the importance of a strong work ethic (道德准则).Working long hours did a lot to develop my character and helped me learn the value of a dollar.It also made me learn how to search for creative ways to settle difficult situations.
