    Some say college is wasted on the young. So many of us look back at our own college years and realize what we could have done differently to make the most of them. While we can’t go back, we certainly can offer our sons and daughters our best advice to help them make the right choices in college. Hopefully, they will have fewer regrets than we do. Following are five guidelines parents can share with their college-bound kids to put the whole experience in perspective.

    EDUCATION IS YOUR FIRST PRIORITY

    As soon as you arrive on campus, there will be competing interests. Feel free to check them out but always remember that you are there first and foremost for your education. Go to class prepared and on time. Be engaged during class. Make sure your professor knows you and realizes that you care.

    BE RESPONSIBLE

    There are many layers of responsibility. Do what you say you will do and, if you can’t, confess it early and communicate clearly. But being responsible isn’t just about meeting your commitments; it is also about taking care of you, your body, and your friends. For example, more than 1800 college students die annually from alcohol-related injuries. Look out for yourself and other people. Make moderate, sensible decisions so you aren’t reeling from(受…影响) the consequences later.

    TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY

    Incredible opportunities will present themselves: studying abroad, interning at a unique place, trying new things. Don’t let fear prevent you from taking advantage of them. There may never be so much time or as many resources devoted to your betterment again in your life. Say yes to opportunities that will help you grow.

    FIND AND BE A MENTOR

    Some of the best lessons available to us can come outside of the classroom in the form of a mentor(良师益友). One of the most powerful growth opportunities is being a mentor. Early on, find someone on campus who you feel can help you grow and develop a relationship with him or her. Also find someone for you to mentor. You will reinforce and enrich your own learning experience by teaching someone else.

    GET THE JOB DONE

    It is natural to occasionally feel you want to quit, when it makes more sense to you to go find a full-time job. Resist that urge. As Jocelyn Negron-Rios, a mother of two, who is currently completing her degree, advises, “No matter how difficult it seems, keep at it because however insurmountable（不可克服的） it feels now multiply that by 10,000 and that is how it feels when you are in your thirties with a full-time job and a family and are trying to pursue a degree.”

    1.According to the passage, the most important thing for college students is ______.

    A. taking part in different activities

    B. working hard to get a degree

    C. seizing every chance to try new things

    D. improving themselves by learning from the others

    2.Which of the following about college life is true?

    A. Passing on what you’ve learned in college can help you enrich your learning experience.

    B. Make sure that you are responsible for yourself rather than others.

    C. Professors will not assess your performances in class but the grades you get in exams.

    D. You can make full use of the opportunity whenever you want.

    3.What can we infer from the words said by Jocelyn in the last paragraph?

    A. Persistence is the key to success when you meet with difficulties in your learning process.

    B. It is better if you gain more working experience before you finish your education.

    C. As long as you work hard, you can gain a degree even when you are in your thirties.

    D. Youth is the best time to learn since you have less burden.

    4.What is the main purpose of the passage?

    A. To give some rules for the college students.

    B. To call on the students to make full use of college years.

    C. To summarize some tips for parents to share with their children.

    D. To analyze the benefits and difficulties of college life.

    I’m sorry to occupy your precious time，and I really want to tell you anything about the problem of some people keeping too many pets nowadays．I take the problem more and more seriously for the following reason．First of all，as it is known to people，pets make loud noise that trouble residents a lot．What’s more，it is widely accepted that animal waste pollutes the environment，where makes people quite uncomfortable．Many owners like taking their pets to public place where they may frighten children or even bite people．The mostly important is that pets can spread some diseases and this has attracted much attention．Take all these factors into consideration，I sincerely hope that I can get help from you and expect the media do something for this．

    Larry was on another of his underwater expeditions(探险)but this time, it was different. He decided to take his daughter along with him. She was only ten years old. This would be her first trip with her father on what he had always been famous for.

    Larry first began diving when he was his daughter’s age. Similarly, his father had taken him along on one of his expeditions. Since then, he had never looked back. Larry started out by renting diving suits from the small diving shop just along the shore. He had hated them. They were either too big or too small. Then, there was the instructor. He gave him a short lesson before allowing him into the water with his father. He had made an exception. Larry would never have been able to go down without at least five hours of theory and another similar number of hours on practical lessons with a guide. Children his age were not even allowed to dive.

    After the first expedition, Larry’s later diving adventures only got better and better. There was never a dull moment. In his black and blue suit and with an oxygen tank fastened on his back, Larry dived from boats into the middle of the ocean. Dangerous areas did not prevent him from continuing his search. Sometimes, he was limited to a cage underwater but that did not bother him. At least, he was still able to take photographs of the underwater creatures

    Larry’s first expedition without his father was in the Cayman Islands. There were numerous diving spots in the area and Larry was determined to visit all of them. Fortunately for him, a man offered to take him around the different spots for free. Larry did not even know what the time was, how many spots he dived into or how many photographs he had taken. The diving spots afforded such a wide array of fish and sea creatures that Larry saw more than thirty varieties of creatures.

    Larry looked at his daughter. She looked as excited as he had been when he was her age. He hoped she would be able to continue the family tradition. Already, she looked like she was much braver than Larry had been then. This was the key to a successful underwater expedition.

    1.In what way was this expedition different for Larry?

    A. His daughter had grown up.

    B. He had become a famous diver.

    C. His father would dive with him.

    D. His daughter would dive with him.

    2.What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?

    A. Larry had some privileges.

    B. Larry liked the rented diving suits.

    C. Divers had to buy diving equipment.

    D. Ten-year-old children were permitted to dive.

    3.Why did Larry have to stay in a cage underwater sometimes?

    A.To protect himself from danger.

    B.To dive into the deep water.

    C.To admire the underwater view.

    D.To take photos more conveniently.

    4.What did Larry expect his daughter to do?

    A.Become a successful diver.

    B.Make a good diving guide.

    C.Take a lot of photos underwater.

    D.Have longer hours of training.

    Like human beings, dogs may catch cold because of cold weather, wet conditions or can also get it from other sick dogs. If a dog has a running nose and watery eyes, coughs or sneezes(打喷嚏）, then it is quite probable that the dog has caught cold.

    A dog's cold can get over after a few days without treatment but it totally depends upon the owner to treat it with medications or improve its immune power（免疫力）to get rid of the cold naturally. Following are some of the things you can do if your dog gets a cold.

    You can improve its immune power by giving it proper nutrient diet. Healthy food can really do wonders. Try to give it food which is either suggested by the vet（兽医）or is healthy for your pet. Increase the intake of food which is rich in vitamins A, C and E.

    Keep your dog warm. The best place for your dog in winter is inside your house. Do not keep your dog outside when it is cold and wet. At home you can also keep the dog warm with the help of carpets. This will make him comfortable and help him to recover fast.

    Increase the fluid（流质）intake as it helps a lot. Water can be the best choice but you can also add broth（肉汤）in water which will give your dog strength. Warm water will make your dog more comfortable and will also keep the dog away from the respiratory infections（呼吸道感染）.

    Steam treatment is considered to be effective in getting rid of cold. It makes the nasal（鼻的）passage wet, which helps proper breathing. Just fill your bathroom with steam and leave your dog inside the bathroom for 15 minutes. Do it nearly 2 to 3 times a day and you will see your dog recovering.

    These are some of the things you can do to help your dog recover from cold. However, if you are not able to find any improvement in its health, then turn to the vet for help immediately. Take your dog for regular checkups so as to avoid complications（并发症）.

    1.From the first paragraph we know about __________.

    A．the difficulty in keeping a dog as a pet

    B．characteristics(特征) of sick dogs

    C．the similarities between dogs and human beings

    D．causes and symptoms（症状）of cold in dogs

    2.When your dog catches cold, you should feed it on _______.

    A．its favorite food B．the suggested food by the vet

    C．some meat and water D．food rich in vitamin B

    3.When a dog catches cold, it is wrong to ________.

    A．keep it inside during cold and wet weather

    B．leave it inside the bathroom full of steam

    C．let it eat too much solid（固体）food

    D．keep it sleeping on carpets at home

    4.It can be learnt from the text that _________.

    A．a dog’s cold can always disappear naturally

    B．it’s quite easy to make a sick dog recover from cold

    C．treating a dog’s cold sometimes needs a vet’s help

    D．cold in dogs won’t spread between each other.
