C
If you were to come up with a list of organizations whose failures had done the most damage to the American economy in recent years, you would probably have to start with the Wall Street firms that brought us the financial crisis.From there, you might move on to the automakers in Detroit.
But I would suggest that the list should also include a less obvious nominee: public education.
At its top level, the American system of higher education may be the best in the world.Yet in terms of its core mission---turning teenagers into educated college graduates--- much of the system is failing.
The United States does a good job enrolling (招生) teenagers in college, but only half of the students who enroll end up with a bachelor’s degree.
So identifying the causes of the college dropout crisis in the world’s largest economy matters enormously, and a new book called “Crossing the Finish Line” tries to do precisely that.Its authors are economists William Bowen and Michael McPherson, and a doctoral candidate Matthew Chingos.The first problem they diagnose is something they call under-matching.It refers to students who choose not to attend the best college they can get into.They instead go to a less selective one, perhaps one that is closer to home or less expensive.About half of the low-income students with a grade-point average of at least 3.5 in high school and an SAT score of at least 1,200 do not attend the best college they could have.“I was really astonished by the degree to which well-qualified students from poor families under-matched,” said Mr.Bowen.
In fact, well-off students attend the colleges that do the best job of producing graduates.Meanwhile, lower-income students -–even when they are better qualified—often go to colleges that excel(擅長(zhǎng))in producing drop-outs.“It’s really a waste,” Mr.Bowen said, “and a big problem for the country.” As the authors point out, the only way to lift the college graduation rate significantly is to lift it among poor and working-class students.Instead, it appears to have fallen.
What can be done? Money is clearly part of the answer.
46. Which of the following would people first think of as a factor responsible for the American financial crisis according to this passage?
A.The government. B.Public education
C.The Detroit automakers. D.The Wall Street firms.
47.What is a big problem with American higher education?
A.It is hard to enroll enough students into college.
B.Many colleges are experiencing low rate of graduation.
C.Many college students stay away from classes.
D.It is hard for many colleges to get financial aid from the government.
48.The title of the book Crossing the Finish Line probably means______.
A.running to the end of the line B.going to college
C.finishing college education D.working hard in college
49.Why do some students under--match ?
A.Because they have financial difficulty. B.Because they face ambition crisis.
C.Because they lack confidence. D.Because they can’t get guidance.
50.The passage is mainly about _______.
A.problems with secondary American education and possible solutions
B.America’s financial crisis, its cause and influence
C.low rate of American college graduation, its cause and its influence
D.relationship between American education and its economy

Staying positive through the cold season could be your best defense against getting ill, new study findings suggest.
In an experiment that exposed healthy volunteers to a cold or flu virus, researchers found that people with a generally sunny character were less likely to fall ill. The findings, published in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine, build on evidence that a “positive emotional style” can help to protect us from suffering the common cold and other illnesses.
Researchers believe the reasons may be both objective — as in happiness improving immune function — and subjective — as in happy people being less troubled by a sore throat or runny nose. “People with a positive emotional style may have different immune responses to the virus,” explained lead study author Dr Sheldon Cohen of Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. “And when they do get a cold, they may interpret their illness as being less severe.”
Cohen and his colleagues had found in a previous study that happier people seemed less likely to catch a cold, but some questions remained as to whether the emotional style itself had the effect.
For the new study, the researchers had 193 healthy adults complete standard measures of personality characteristics, self-felt health and emotional style. Those who had a tendency to be happy, energetic and easy-going were judged as having a positive emotional style, while those who were often unhappy, tense and aggressive had a negative style.
The researchers gave them nasal (鼻腔的) drops containing either a cold virus or a particular flu virus. Over the next six days, the volunteers reported on any aches, pains or sneezing they had, while the researchers collected objective data. Cohen and his colleagues found that based on objective measures of nasal troubles, happy people were less likely to develop a cold.
【小題1】Which is the best title for the passage? ______
A.Stay Away from Being Negative |
B.Positive or Negative?It’s Up to You. |
C.Emotional Style and Flu. |
D.Optimistic People Likely to Keep Diseases Away. |

B.they have developed a certain way against flu virus |
C.they are less likely to have a sore throat and runny nose |

A.getting volunteers in one emotional group and analyzing them |
B.conducting a medical experiment on volunteers of different emotional styles |

Are there fastest ways to lose weight? Yes, there are! This is no magic trick or miracle. It just needs sensible actions.
●Drink water
No, you don’t have to fill up like a tub, but ensure that you drink 8 to 10 glasses of water every day. Don’t substitute for juice. With adequate water intake your body will be able to metabolize(新陳代謝)fat more effectively. And if you have a glass of water 10-15 minutes before your meal, you will feel full once you start eating. Another fun fact, did you know that you can lose 62 calories by drinking ice cold water?
●Eat 5 times a day
Start with breakfast. The more you eat for breakfast, the less food you will want to eat at night. Please don’t skip this meal as you’ll end up swallowing everything in sight for the rest of the day. You don’t need to gobble up 5 large meals. Eat sensibly so your body doesn’t crave for food.
●Use weights
Needless to say, exercise is crucial to weight loss. You can’t expect to sit on the sofa all day, sip water and lose weight. Join a good gym that lets you work with weights. It will help you build muscle and your metabolism rate will increase. You’ll soon see the fat come off and in its place muscle will develop.
●Smaller bowls
It’s better to substitute the huge bowls you usually use for small ones – when food starts to fall off, you’ll know it’s enough. Try to get these new bowls in dark colors. Dark blue will be your best choice since it is the number one color that fights off the appetite. Avoid red/orange/yellow colors in your dining area – they are the ones making your appetite go sky high.
●Read between lines
Food and drink products are all out to get you. They scream “Buy me! Buy me!” They could be “fat free” but they could still have a lot of calories. You need to analyze the nutrition label on the cover. Find out what’s good for you and what isn’t. Knowing in advance can help you stay away from products that are calorie-enriched.
●Don’t punish yourself
Go easy on yourself at least one day in a week. If you begin to dislike your diet then there’s something wrong. Find a diet that suits your body type and your lifestyle.
【小題1】According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A.If you are on a diet, you should always keep to your diet. |
B.Use smaller bowls can help you eat less food. |
C.Skipping breakfast is not a wise way to lose weight. |
D.Reading the nutrition label on drink and food products is helpful. |
A.black and yellow | B.gray and white |
C.red and orange | D.blue and purple |
A.beam | B.shot | C.barbell | D.badminton |
A.drinking juice instead of water |
B.working with weights to build muscle |
C.buying products that are not calorie-enriched |
D.eating proper amount of food |

If you are planning to study in the United States, you need to consider several factors. Everyone has different opinions about where is the best place to live in. Also, the best places to live are not always home to the best schools. Finally, many schools specialize in different areas of study. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, for example, is a great school for computer science and technology-related fields of study. However, if you want to study oceanography(海洋學(xué)), your interests may be better served by attending school in a place that is on a coastline or near the ocean.
Now I am sure that you know which schools are considered the best in the country. So I will tell you about which states I believe are the best to live in.
California is a nice state. Northern California specifically has very good weather. Los Angeles in Southern California is another story though. Life in Los Angeles is full of excitement and fast, and sometimes dangerous. As for me, I enjoy the time I spent in Massachusetts, Virginia and Maryland and these states have a lot of history and culture. The weather is not as perfect as California, but it is still quite nice. My favorite area of America is the Mid-west. Middle America, I think, is home to the true American sense of values. In addition, there are many good universities there.
Also, you need to think about your likes and dislikes and then research the various states. You like sunshine and hate snow? Then you probably won't like the Midwest or even the Northeast. Open space, nature and peace and quiet? Then you probably should stay away from America's large cities. Are you interested in government? Then Washington D.C. is the only place for you. Whatever you decide, put some thought into it. The place you live could be the difference between a great study-abroad experience and a state of great suffering on earth.
1.From the first paragraph we can conclude (得出結(jié)論)that in the USA _______.
A.a(chǎn)ll colleges and universities lie in big cities |
B.a(chǎn)ll colleges and universities lie in beautiful places |
C.famous colleges and universities lie in nice places |
D.famous colleges and universities may not lie in nice places |
2.What should be considered first if you want to study in the USA?
A.The climate. |
B.The scenery. |
C.The study condition. |
D.The living condition. |
3.From the third paragraph we can find that _______.
A.California is the best place to live in |
B.California is the worst place to live in |
C.California is a state with different climates |
D.California is a small state in the USA |
4.If you study in Middle America, you can probably _______.
A.find the best universities |
B.feel the real character of the nation |
C.meet the most famous professors there |
D.face more difficulties |
5. From the last paragraph of this passage we can get to know that _______.
A.Washington is the largest city in the USA |
B.Washington is the political centre of the USA |
C.you can't find sunshine in the Midwest |
D.you can't find any universities out of big cities in the USA |
