14.In colleges around the country,most students are also workers.
The reality of college can be pretty different from the images presented in movies and television.Instead of the students who wake up late,party all the time,and study only before exams,many colleges are full of students with pressing schedules of not just classes and activities,but real jobs,too.
This isn't a temporary phenomenon.The share of working students has been on the rise since the 1970s,and one-fifth of students work all year round.About one-quarter of those who work while attending school have both a full-course load and a full-time job.The arrangement can help pay for tuition (學(xué)費(fèi)) and living costs,obviously.And there's value in it beyond the direct cause:such jobs can also be critical for developing important professional and social skills that make it easier to land a job after graduation.With many employers looking for students with already-developed skill sets,on-the-job training while in college can be the best way to ensure a job later on.
But it's not all upside.Even full-time work may not completely cover the cost of tuition and living expenses.The study notes that if a student worked a full-time job at the federal minimum wage,they would earn just over $15,000 each year,certainly not enough to pay for tuition,room,and board at many colleges without some serious financial aid.That means that though they're sacrificing time away from the classroom,many working students will still graduate with at least some debt.And working full time can reduce the chance that students will graduate at all,by cutting into the time available for studying and attending classes.
There is little reward for attending but not finishing college.Students who wind up leaving school because of difficulty in managing work and class are likely to find themselves stuck in some of the same jobs they might have gotten if they hadn't gone at all.The difficulty of working too much while in school can create a cycle that pushes students further into debt without receiving any of the financial or career benefits.

28.According to the passage,the reality of college students is thatD.
A.they throw parties a lot          
 B.they stay up late every night
C.they pay no attention to exams            
D.they work besides attending classes
29.What is the indirect cause of an increasing number of working students?C
A.The lack of summer jobs for young adults.
B.The need of developing social networks.
C.The chance of finding a job after graduation.
D.The expenses of high tuition and living costs.
30.We can learn from the passage thatA.
A.dropping out of college may not help students get career benefits
B.students can cover all their college expenses through working
C.students receive a huge reward for managing work and class
D.working students are more likely to finish college
31.What is the best title for the passage?B
A.The Difficulties of Landing a Job
B.The Struggle of Work-School Balance
C.The Reward of Working While Studying
D.The Images of Working College Students.

解答 28.D   細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第二段Instead of the students who wake up late,party all the time,and study only before exams,many colleges are full of students with pressing schedules of not just classes and activities,but real jobs,too可知一些大學(xué)生除了上課的同時(shí)還在工作,故選D.
29.C  推理判斷題,根據(jù)第三段such jobs can also be critical for developi ng important professional and social skills that make it easier to land a job after graduation.With many employers looking for students with already-developed s kill sets,on-the-job training while in college can be the best way to e nsure a job later on可知越來越多的學(xué)生工作的原因是為了畢業(yè)后找到工作的機(jī)會(huì),故選C.
30.A  細(xì)節(jié)理解題,根據(jù)最后一段 The difficulty of working too much while in school can create a cycle that pushes students further into debt without receiving any of the financial or career benefits可知從大學(xué)退學(xué)可能不利于學(xué)生獲得職業(yè)福利,故選A.
31.B   主旨大意題,通讀全文可知文章講述了現(xiàn)在的大學(xué)生的生活并不像電影里演的一樣,他們不僅有著課程壓力,而且許多學(xué)生在校外兼職,掙學(xué)費(fèi)及生活費(fèi),但這種做法各有利弊,要保持好一個(gè)平行點(diǎn),故選B.

19.Persuasion is the art of convincing someone to agree with you.According to the ancient Greeks,there are three basic tools of persuasion:ethos,pathos,and logos.
Ethos is a speakers way of convincing the audience that she is trustworthy,honest and reliable.One common way a speaker can develop ethos is by explaining how much experience or education she has in the field.After all,you're more likely to listen to advice about how to take care of your teeth from a dentist than a fireman.A speaker can also create ethos by convincing the audience that she is a good person.If an audience cannot trust you,you will not be able to persuade them.
Pathos is a speaker's way of connecting with an audience's emotions.For example,a politician who is trying to convince an audience to vote for him might say that he alone can save the country from a terrible war.These words are intended to fill the audience with fear,thus making them support him.Similarly,an animal charity might show an audience pictures of injured dogs and cats,to make the viewers feel pity.If the audience feels bad for the animals,they will be more likely to donate money.
Logos is the use of facts,statistics,or other evidence to support your argument.An audience will be more likely to believe you if you have convincing data to back up your claims.Presenting this evidence is much more persuasive than simply saying"believe me".
Although ethos,pathos,and logos all have their strengths,they are often most effective when used together.Indeed,most speakers use a combination of ethos,pathos,and logos to persuade their audiences.So,the next time you listen to a speech,watch a commercial,or listen to a friend try to convince you to lend him some money,be on the lookout for these ancient Greek tools of persuasion.

32.Why does the author say persuasion is an art?B
A.They both entertain the audience.
B.They both require great skill to achieve.
C.They both demand full attention from the audience.
D.They were both common topics of ancient Greek writers.
33.How is a speaker able to show her ethos to the audience?D
A.By expressing her sympathy with the audience.
B.By telling the audience about her personal preference.
C.By using beautiful language to make her statements attractive.
D.By showing her knowledge and experience relating to the topic.
34.What can we learn about the three aspects of persuasion?B
A.Ethos is the most important aspect of persuasion.
B.Each aspect has a different effect on the audience.
C.Honesty is the key to making your arguments believable.
D.Political leaders mostly use pathos to persuade their audience.
35.An advertisement for washing powder which claims that M scientific tests show that our powder kills 95% of all bacteria"is mainly usingC.
A.ethos       B.pathos       C.logos       D.a(chǎn) combination of all three.
