Let's assume you once actually completed a couple of years of college work or even that you completed your degree. Isn't it appealing to lie just a little, to claim on the form that your diploma represents a Harvard degree? Or that you finished an extra couple of years back at State University? More and more people are turning to cheat like this to land their job or to move ahead in their careers, for personnel officers, like most Americans, value degrees from famous schools. A job applicant may have a good education anyway, but he or she assumes that chances of being hired are better with a diploma from a well-known university. Registrars(登记员) at most well-known colleges say they deal with deceitful claims like these at the rate of about one per week. Personnel officers do check up on degrees listed on application forms, then. If it turns out that an applicant is lying, most colleges are unwilling to accuse the applicant directly. One Ivy League school calls them "cheats"; another refers to them as "special cases". One well-known West Coast school, in perhaps the most delicate phrase of all, says that these claims are made by "no such people". To avoid outright(彻底的) lies, some job-seekers claim that they "attending" means being dismissed after one semester. It may be that "being associated with" a college means that the job-seeker visited his younger brother for a football weekend. One school that keeps records of false claims says that the practice dates back at least to the turn of the century—that's when they began keeping records, anyhow. If you don't want to lie or even stretch the truth, there are companies that will sell you a false diploma. One company, with offices in New York and on the West Coast, will put your name on a diploma from any number of nonexistent colleges. The price begins at around twenty dollars for a diploma from "Smoot State University". The prices increase rapidly for a degree from the "University of Purdue". As there is no Smoot State and the real school in Indiana is properly called Purdue University, the prices seem rather high for one sheet of paper. 41.The main idea of this passage is that ______.
42.According to the passage, "special cases" refers to cases that ______.
43.We can infer from the passage that _______.
44.This passage implies that ______.

A year after moving to London, she published her first novel in 1950. The Grass is Singing examines unbridgeable racial conflict in colonial Africa through the eyes of a white farmer's wife and her black servant. Her literary breakthrough came in 1962 with publication of The Golden Notebook, seen by many, though not necessarily Lessing, as a pioneering work of modern feminism(女权运动). A disjointed study of the mind of the main character, Anna Wulf, the novel explores her thoughts about Africa, politics, relationships with men and sex, and Jungian analysis and dream interpretation. Lessing's themes changed to psychology in her works from the 1960s, and by the 1970s she was interested in the Islamic mystic tradition of Sufism(苏菲教派). Her turn toward science fiction with the Canopus series in the early 1980s was not warmly received by traditional critics, but she has continued to be popular with new readers and numerous literary awards, including the David Cohen British Literary Prize and the Companion of Honour from the Royal Society of Literature, both in 2001. Following the announcement, the Horace Engdahl told VOA why he was personally so pleased with Lessing's selection. “She is one of the truly great writers -- of novels, short stories, fiction and non-fiction,” Engdahl said. “She is one of the few writers who have had the courage to uphold the principle of equality between the male and female experience, and she has given the impulse to numbers of other women writers. And she is really the mother of a school that is one of the most important in our contemporary literature.” At 87, Doris Lessing is the oldest Nobel Literature winner since the first prizes were awarded in 1901. 49. What would be the best title of the passage?
50.It can be inferred from the passage that _______.
51.According to the fourth paragraph, _______.
52.The underlined word “impulse” in the 6th passage is closest in meaning to _______.

Can Animals Be Nice?
Scientists recently discovered that animals who live in groups,such as elephants,foxes,and wolves,are especially likely to follow some rules.If they don't,the group might break apart.Group members would be forced to live alone.Then they'd have a harder time hunting and raising their young.
Sometimes,though,animals go out of their way to do what's right,even when there's nothing in it for them.Nobody knows why.Read the three surprising stories about nice behavior in the animal kingdom.
| An Unexpected Gift Teleki,a scientist,has been running after Sniff and the other wild chimpanzees(黑猩猩)through the forest,observing their behavior.Now,he decided to knock down some fruits to fill his own stomach.Grabbing a stick,Teleki hit the benches,but he couldn't do it.Watching him,Sniff imagined himself in Teleki's place.It picked an armload of fruits,swung down on a branch,and handed them to the astonished scientist. |
| A Kind Heart Toby was one generous cat.For ten years,the kindly kitty shared his food with a dog named Katie.After supper,owner Gustafson always drops some food in Katie's bowl on the floor and some in Toby's dish on the kitchen counter.Gustafson kept the cat's dish up high to keep Katie from stealing Toby's treats.Katie didn't need to steal;she only had to beg.Every night she'd sit and stare at the cat.And Toby would flick some with his paw down to the waiting dog. |
| A Friend in Need An African savanna elephant was grazing alone when a stranger,a forest elephant,arrived who had caught his trunk in a trap.While freeing himself,he'd hurt his mouth.He needed a help until his mouth got better.The forest elephant walked up and stuck his trunk into the healthy elephant's mouth.Elephants often aid members of their herd.But this healthy elephant didn't care that they weren't related.He reached down,uprooted a small tree,and stuffed it into his new friend's mouth. |
