My friend, Emma Daniels, spent the summer of 1974 traveling in Israel. During her month long stay in Jerusalem she often went to a cafe called Chocolate Soup. It was run by two men, one of whom—Alex—used to live in Montreal. One morning when Emma went in for coffee, while chatting with her new friend Alex, she mentioned that she had just finished the book she was reading and had nothing else to read. Alex said he had a wonderful book she might like, and that he’d be happy to lend it to her. As he lived just above the cafe, he quickly ran up to get it. The book he handed to Emma just minutes later was Markings, a book by a former Secretary General of the United Nations (UN).
Emma had never read it, nor had she ever bought a copy. But, when she opened it up, she was floored to see her own name and address inside the cover, in her own handwriting. It turned out that the summer before, at a concert back in Montreal, Emma had met a Californian who was in town visiting friends. They decided to exchange addresses, but neither of them had any paper. The man opened up a book he was carrying in his backpack (背包) and asked Emma to write her name and address inside.

OVERVIEW
This book offers straightforward practical answers when you need fast results. By working through each 10-minute lesson, you'll learn what you need to begin to use the PHP scripting language to make your websites interactive and dynamic.
REVIEW
When I first laid eyes on this book and its title, Teach Yourself PHP in 10 minutes, my first thought was that I was going to see this! So I opened it up and figured I'd look through it for ten minutes and see what would hit me. Well, 10 minutes turned into 20, 20 into 30 and 30 into a valuable resource that sits on my desk.
Not only are the lessons within brief, but they are very easy to understand, well presented and very easy to understand for the beginner. Each lesson comes with tips to point out shortcuts, cautions to help you avoid common mistakes and notes to additional infomation. This book can be used in two ways, as a reference or as a complete tutorial on PHP basics. That alone is something that is very rare in teaching type books these days.
Some of the more valuable and informative lessons will take you into the areas of:
--Strings and variables
--Processing HTML forms
--Controlling and filtering data
--User authentication
--Cookies and sessions
--Security practices
--Configuring PHP and more!!!
The book is pretty basic for experienced PHP coders, but for new or intermediate users this book is worth more than the small $19.99 CAN suggested price. Although the cover suggests it covers PHP 5.0, the coding found within also applies to PHP 4.X
CONCLUSION
This book completely surprised me with its value and does indeed teach you in ten minutes what other books claim to do in 24 hours. Full marks to author Chris Newman for this handy guide.

III．阅读（共两节，满分40分）
第一节 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
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。
Now in his senior year in Bowdoin College, a small, elite liberal-arts（文科）college in Masine, Chen Yongfang has become such a devotee of the liberal-arts approach that he’s made it his mission to spread the word throughout China. He has coauthored a book called A True Liberal Arts Education, which essentially explains the little-known concept to Chinese students and their parents. Though there have been many books about how to get into Ivy League universities, “there was not a single book in China about the smaller liberal-arts colleges,” he says.
The book, which Chen wrote with friends Ye Lin and Wan Li, who also attend small U. S. colleges, touts（兜售）such benefits as intimate classes (the student-to-faculty ratio at Bowdoin is 9:1) and professors who focus on teaching rather than research. Chen, 23, explains that he was won over by Bowdoin’s commitment to nurturing skills for life, rather than simply for the workplace. “Liberal arts is abut fostering your identity,” he says. “They want to cultivate your mind.” He admits that liberal arts may be a hard sell in a country with an increasingly competitive job market. The book states bluntly that in the short term, a liberal-arts education won’t improve job prospects. “In China, employers are looking for someone who can come in and start working immediately when they graduate, not someone who still needs to be trained in practical skills,” Chen says.
The book, which received wide media coverage in
China and now has a waiting list for its second print run, is certainly timely:
it plays into a growing debate in China about what national universities should
be teaching. The country needs a workforce with the skills and creativity to
help move away from low-cost manufacturing and, in economic terms, move up the
value chain. And some educators believe liberal-arts training is vital to help
China deal with its increasingly complex new realities. Yet the well-known
intellectual historian Xu Jilin believes that China’s rapid expansion of higher
education has had a detrimental effect on curriculum as the country’s universities
race to compete globally. “Education these days in like factory-farming
chickens,” he says. “Universities all wan to get into international rakings—and
most of these depend on research. They’re not interested in providing a unique
education for our kids.”
1．According to Chen Yongfang, the benefits of attending liberal-arts colleges are the following EXCEPT .
A．closer relationship with tutors
B．teachers more devoted to teaching
C．practical skills for getting a job in China
D．development in mind and life-long ability
2．It can be inferred from the passage that .
A．the teaching quality in big research universities not as good as small colleges
B．it is more difficult for liberal-arts graduates to find a job because employers don’t believe that they can perform well
C．literal-arts education is of little help to China’s economic development
D．research universities received more Chinese applicants than smaller liberal-arts colleges
3．The word “detrimental” in Para.3 probably means “_________.”
A．instant B．rewarding C．damaging D．obvious
4．According to Xu Jilin,___________.
A．the expansion of higher education has improved the competitive strength of China’s universities
B．Chinese universities are providing the same courses as foreign universities
C．many universities are not paying enough attention to teaching
D．research should gain more attention in order to improve China’s universities’ rankings
5．This passage is most probably adapted from_________.
A．an article introducing liberal arts
B．an article introducing the book A True Liberal Arts Education
C．an article criticizing China’s higher education
D．an advertisement for Bowdoin College
