    11．Recently I spoke to some of my students about what they wanted to do after they graduated，and what kind of job prospects they thought they had．
    Given that I teach students who are trained to be doctors，I was surprised to find that most thought that they would not be able to get the jobs they wanted without"outside help"．"What kind of help is that？"I asked，expecting them to tell me that they would need a relative or family friend to help them out．
    "Surgery（外科手术）"，one replied．I was pretty alarmed by that response．It seems that the graduates of today are increasingly willing to go under the knife to get ahead of others when it comes to getting a job．One girl told me that she was considering surgery to increase her height．"They break your legs，put in special extending screws，and slowly expand the gap between the two ends of the bone as it regrows．You can get at least 5 cm taller!"
    At that point，I was shocked．I am short．I can't deny that，but I don't think I would put myself through months of pain just to be a few centimeters taller．I don't even bother to wear shoes with thick soles，as I'm not trying to hide the fact that I am just not tall!
    It seems to me that there is a trend toward wanting"perfection"，and that is an ideal that just does not exist in reality．
    No one is born perfect，yet magazines，TV shows and movies present images of thin，tall，beautiful people as being the norm（标准）．Advertisements for slimming aids，beauty treatments and cosmetic surgery clinics fill the pages of newspapers，further creating an idea that"perfection"is a requirement，and that it must be purchased，no matter what the cost．In my opinion，skills，rather than appearance，should determine how successful a person is in his chosen career．
    61．We can know from the passage that the author works asC．
    A．a professor     B．a model       C．a teacher       D．a reporter

    D．attract more admirers
    63．What was the author's reaction towards the girl's decision？B
    A．Excited．B．Surprised．C．Happy．D．Angry．
    64．According to the passage，the author believes thatC．

    B．it's right for graduates to ask for others to help them out in hunting for jobs
    C．media are to blame for misleading young people in their seeking for surgery
    D．it is one's appearance instead of skills that really matters in one's career

    B．He tries to increase his height through surgery．
    C．He always wears shoes with thick soles to hide the fact．

    12．She once said："When people ask me if writing has been a hard or easy road I always answer with the famous saying，"the end is nothing； the road is all．'"That is what I mean when I say writing has been a pleasure．I have never faced the type-writer （打字机） with the thought that one more task had to be done．"
    Like most writers，Willa Cather did not write books for the money that they brought her，but rather for the pleasure that came in their writing．Her works were，like her，simple and full of the vigor （活力）of her days in Nebraska，where she grew from childhood to young womanhood and where she developed a deep love for the treeless land of the Great Plains with its wild flowers，wheat fields and rivers．
    "It's a rather strange thing about the flat country，"she wrote later．"It takes hold of you，or it leaves you perfectly cold．A great many people find it very dull； they like a church tower，an old factory，a waterfall country all made to look like a German，Christmas card…But when I come to the open plains，something happens．I'm home．I breathe differently．"

    35．What did Cather mean by"the end is nothing； the road is all"？D
    A．Writing is the only path to success．
    B．I feel happy when I finish writing a book．
    C．I enjoy writing whether it is hard or easy．
    D．Writing itself，not its result，is important．
    36．What was the place like where Cather grew up？D
    A．It was cold，plain and without a church．
    B．It was a colorful world of wild flowers．
    C．It was like a German Christmas card
    D．It was vast，open，flat and wild．
    37．When she said"It takes hold of you，or it leaves you perfectly cold"，Willa Gather meantA．
    A．you either love the place or hate it
    B．you decide either to stay or to leave
    C．some find the place warm； others find it cold
    D．some find the place peaceful； others find it wild
    38．What happens when Cather comes to the open plains？D
    A．She breathes differently from others：
    B．She wants to make the place her home．
    C．She finds the place similar to her home．
    D．She feels completely comfortable．
