1.I once had my Chinese MBA students brainstorming on"two-hour business plans".I separated them into six groups and gave them an example:a restaurant chain.The more original their idea,the better,I said.Finally,five of the six groups presented plans for restaurant chains.The sixth proposed a catering(餐饮) service.Though I admitted the time limit had been difficult,I expressed my disappointment.
My students were middle managers,financial analysts and financiers from state-owned enterprises and global companies.They were not without talent or opinions,but they had been shaped by an educational system that rarely stressed or rewarded critical thinking or inventiveness.The scene I just described came in different forms during my two years'teaching at the school.Papers were often copied from the Web and the Harvard Business Review.Case study debates were written up and just memorized.Students frequently said that copying is a superior business strategy,better than inventing and creating.
In China,every product you can imagine has been made and sold.But so few well-developed marketing and management minds have been raised that it will be a long time before most people in the world can name a Chinese brand.
With this problem in mind,partnerships with institutions like Yale and MIT have been established.And then there's the"thousand-talent  scheme":this new government program is intended to improve technological modernization by attracting top foreign-trained scientists to the mainland with big money.But there are worries about China's research environment.It's hardly known for producing independent thinking and openness,and even big salary offers may not be attractive enough to overcome this.
At last,for China,becoming a major world creator is not just about setting up partnerships with top Western universities.Nor is it about gathering a group of well-educated people and telling them to think creatively.It's about establishing a rich learning environment for young minds.It's not that simple.

68.Which of the following scenes is NOT considered as lack of creation?D
A.Papers were often downloaded from the Internet.
B.Students often said that copying is a preferable business strategy.
C.Case study debates were written up as well as recited.
D.Students combine knowledge and critical thoughts to solve a problem.
69.The underlined word"scheme"in the forth paragraph meansC.
A.timetable   B.theme   C.project   D.policy
70.We can infer from the passage thatB.
A.China can make and sell any product all over the world
B.high pay may not solve the problem of China's research environment
C.cooperation with institutions has been set up to make a Chinese brand
D.the new government program are aimed at encouraging imagination
71.Which is the best title of the passage?A
A.Look for a New Way of Learning
B.Reward Creative Thinking
C.How to Become a Creator
D.Establish a Technical Environment.

69.C.词义猜测题.第五段的第2句"this new government program"中this 指代前面的"thousand-talent scheme",而scheme和 program为同义词,C中project 为program同义词;故选C.

18.If you know exactly what you want,the best way to get a job is to get specialized training.A recent survey shows that companies like graduates in such fields as business and health care who can go to work immediately with very little on-the-job training.
That's especially true of booming fields that are challenging for workers.At Cornell's School of Hotel Administration,for example,bachelor's degree graduates get an average of four or five job offers with salaries ranging from the high teens to the low 20s and plenty of chances for rapid advancement.Large companies,especially,like a background of formal education coupled with work experience.But in the long run,too much specialization doesn't pay off.Business,which has been flooded with MBAs,no longer considers the degree an automatic stamp of approval.The MBA may open doors and command a higher salary initially,but   the effect of a degree washes out after five years.
As further evidence of companies gradually losing faith in specialized degrees,Michigan State's Scheetz mentions a pattern in hiring practices.Although companies tend to take on specialists as new hires,they often seek out generalists for middle and upper-level management."They want someone who isn't constrained(限制)by details to look at the big picture,"says  Scheetz.This sounds like a formal statement that you approve of the liberal-arts (文科)graduates.Time and again labor-market analysts mention a need for talents that liberal-arts majors are assumed to have:writing and communication skills,organizational skills,open-mindedness and adaptability,and the ability to analyze and solve problems.David Birch,manager of the Boston Red Sox,claims he does not hire anybody with an MBA or an engineering degree,"I hire only liberal-arts people because they have a less-than-canned way of doing things,"says Birch.
For a liberal-arts degree,students focus on some basic courses that include literature,history,mathematics,economics,science,human behavior-plus a computer course or two.With these useful and important courses,you can feel free to specialize,"A liberal-arts degree coupled with an MBA or some other technical training is a very good combination in the marketplace,"says Scheetz.

61.What kinds of people are in high demand on the job market?C
A.Students with a bachelor's degree in humanities.
B.People with an MBA degree from top universities.
C.People with formal schooling plus work experience.
D.People with special training in engineering
62.By saying"…but the effect of a degree washes out after five years"(Para 2),the author meansB.
A.most MBA programs fail to provide students with a solid foundation
B.an MBA degree does not help in the future promotion
C.MBA programs will not be as popular in five years'time as they are now
D.people will not forget about the degree the MBA graduates have got
63.According to Scheetz's statement ( Para.3),companies prefer people whoA.
A.have a strategic mind 
B.are talented in fine arts
C.are ambitious and aggressive
D.have received training in mechanics
64.David Birch claims that he only hires liberal-arts people because theyA.
A.are more capable of handling changing situations
B.can stick to established ways of solving problems
C.are thoroughly trained in a variety of specialized fields
D.have attended special programs in management
65.Which of the following statements does the author support?D
A.Specialists are more expensive to hire than generalists.
B.Formal schooling is less important than job training.
C.On-the-job training is,in the long run,less costly.
D.Generalists will do better than specialists in management.

9.Parents whose children show a special interest in a sport feel very difficult to make a decision about their children's careers.Should they allow their children to train to become top sports men or women?For many children it means starting schoolwork very young,and going out with friends and other interests have to take a second place.It's very difficult to explain to a young child why he or she has to train five hours a day,even at the weekend,when most of his or her friends are playing.
       Another problem is of course money.In many countries money for training is available from government for the best young sportsmen and sportswomen.If this help can not be given,it means that it is the parents who have to find the time and the money to support their child's development and sports clothes,transport to competitions,special equipment,etc.All can be expensive.
       Many parents are worried that it is dangerous to start serious training in a sport at an early age.Some doctors agree that young muscles may be damaged by training before they are properly developed.Professional trainers,however,believe that it is only by training young when young that you can reach the top as a successful sports person.It is clear that very few people do reach the top,and both parents and children should be prepared for failure even after many years of training.
49.Where can we most probably find this passage?C
A.An advertisement
B.A diary.
C.A newspaper
D.A notice board.
50.What does the underlined phrase"to take a second place"in the first paragraph mean?A
A.To become less important.
B.To put it at another place.
C.To happen again.
D.They are the most important of all the things.
51.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?C
A.It's easy to make a decision when your children want to take up sports.
B.Most of the students may become top sports men after a long period of training.
C.Early training may damage young muscles
D.It's not very expensive for parents to support their children's development in sports.

16.A college education is out.of reach for most state and federal prisoners.California'a San Quentin is one of the few prisons in the country that offers college-level courses.
Jody Lewen has run the prison's college program for over a decade and she's the reason that die Prison University Project exists today.When Lewen joined San Quentin's college program in 1999 as a volunteer instructor,it was run by a small volunteer staff with no budget.At that time,she was a graduate student,with plans to return to academic research.But a year later,when the part-time director suddenly quit,Lewen found herself in charge.
Under Lewen's leadership,the Prison University Project has expanded,now offering 20 classes in English,math,social science and Spanish.Three hundred prisoners enroll (入学) every year,earning college credits which can lead to an associate of arts degree.So far,100 San Quentin prisoners have graduated with associate's degrees and many more have continued their college studies after release.
"This experience really has changed my life.It's given me a lot of tools on how to express myself,"says Charles Spence,who is serving a life sentence in San Quentin."This program is really rare in the prison setting,so I'm really lucky."
Research shows that the more education a prisoner has,the less likely he is to return to prison.Lewen says the chance for those with college degrees back into prison is less than 10 percent.
But the Prison University Project receives no government funding.Lewen would like to see college programs in every prison,but without government support,it's not likely to happen any time soon.In the meantime,there's a long waiting list of San Quentin prisoners who want to enroll in the college program.Some day,Lewen hopes to expand her program,making a college education available for most of prisoners at San Quentin.
66.Which of the following is true of the Prison University Project?C
A.Jody Lewen founded it in 1999.
B.It was supported by the government.
C.Jody took charge of it quite accidentally.
D.It is performed in most prisons in the U.S.
67.Jody Lewen joined in San Quentin's college program toA
A.work as a volunteer teacher                             
B.be a part-time director
C.do some scientific research                             
D.earn her college credits
68.According to the text,Charles Spence might beB
A.a graduate student                                      
B.a San Quentin prisoner
C.a volunteer teacher                                     
D.a prison manager
69.The project is quite meaningful becauseD
A.prisoners have equal rights of education
B.it doesn't need support from the government
C.the society is more concerned about prisoners
D.it reduces the chance for prisoners back in prison
70.We learn from the last paragraph that the problem for the Project isD    A.there are fewer and fewer volunteer teachers

13.When I was about twelve,I was headed to a restaurant for dinner with my family.It was winter,and on that night,the wind was really blowing.
As my mom and I headed towards the restaurant from our car,a girl about my age and her mother came up to us.They asked if we had any spare change.My mom immediately asked where they kept their things.They pointed to an old car in a parking lot across the street.The girl said there were six of them living in that car,which was the same size as my own family.
My mom said she had something to do,and after handing the people a few dollars,we said good-bye.Then,my mother sent us inside the restaurant but she didn't come.
Later,I found out that she had gone home and emptied our cupboards into a few bags.Then,she brought that food over to the car and handed the bags to the family.I wasn't there when that part happened,but I can only imagine the joy it brought to their faces.

I remember thinking that the other girl didn't have any food to eat,and she was headed back to a cold car shared with her family.I will never forget what my mom did that night,and how she taught me one of the best lessons I ever learned.
