When introducing American universities, some of the first institutions to mention are the Ivy League schools. Originally, the Ivy League was an athletic conference made up of 8 private institutes of higher learning in northeastern United States. However, as time went on, these schools also became known for their excellence in academics besides athletics. Included in the Ivy League schools are Brown University, Columbia University, Cornell University, Dartmouth College, Princeton University, University of Pennsylvania, Yale University, and Harvard University. These 8 schools have been recognized as some of the best colleges and universities in the United States.

Harvard University is a private institution located in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The university includes a number of graduate and professional schools, as well as a college for undergraduates. In 2012, Harvard ranked number one in US News’ ranking of national universities again. Founded in 1636, Harvard is the oldest institute of higher education in the United States. It can be said that first there was Harvard, then the United States of America. Also, Harvard’s library contains the oldest collection of books in the United States as well as the largest private collection in the world. Harvard has also been described by Forbes Magazine as one of the “billionaire universities” as of their recent list of 469 billionaires, 50 received a degree from Harvard.

Harvard College (the institute for undergraduate students) is one of the most famous schools in the United States. It offers over 40 undergraduate fields of study, including astrophysics, mathematics, neurobiology(神經(jīng)生物學), etc. And the financial aid program there is amazing. Even though the tuition is about 37,576, and there are other expenses throughout the year, about 70% of undergraduate students received financial aid. Out of those students, over 90% of them had their full need met. And the policies for international students are the same for U.S. citizens.

Harvard College is very selective, as it only admits about 6% of their applicants. For admission into Harvard College, it is required that students take the SAT or the ACT, as well as 2 SAT Subject Tests. Harvard will also look at other factors during admission such as your application essay, high school transcript, work experience, GPA (Grade Point Average), your interview, recommendations, and most importantly, your character and personal qualities.

Since Henry Ford turned it into a mass-market product a century ago, the car has delivered many benefits. It has promoted economic growth, increased social mobility and given people a lot of fun. But the car has also brought many problems. It pollutes the air, creates traffic jams and kills people. An astonishing 1.24 million people die, and as many as 50 million are hurt, in road accidents each year.

Drivers and passengers waste around 90 billion hours in traffic jams each year. In some car-choked cities as much as a third of the petrol used is burned by people looking for a space to park.

Fortunately, a new technology promises to make motoring safer, less polluting and less tendency to hold-ups. “Connected cars”--which may eventually develop into driverless cars but for the foreseeable future will still have a human at the wheel-can communicate wirelessly with each other and with traffic-management systems, avoid walkers and other vehicles and find open parking spots.

Some parts of the transformation are already in place. Many new cars are already being fitted with equipment that lets them keep their distance and stay in a motorway automatically at a range of speeds. Soon, all new cars in Europe will have to be able to warn the emergency services if their on-board sensors(傳感器) discover a crash. Singapore has led the way with using variable tolls(道路通行費) to smooth traffic flows during rush-hours; Britain is pioneering “smart motorways”, whose speed limits vary constantly to achieve a similar effect. Combined, these new inventions could create a much more highly effective system in which cars and their drivers are constantly warned of dangers and showed the ways, traffic always flows at the proper speed and vehicles can travel closer together, yet with less risk of crashing.

In the past, more people driving meant more roads, more jams, more death and more pollution. In future, the connected car could offer mankind the pleasures of the road with rather less of the pain.

1.According to Paragraph 2, the problem of parking has resulted in ______.

A. more time on the road

B. a great waste of fuel

C. even heavier traffic jams

D. increased death and injuries

2.What does “a similar effect” in the Paragraph 4 refer to?

A. Reducing traffic jams.

B. Building smart motorways.

C. Setting proper speed limits.

D. Keeping steady traffic flows.

3.What is the author’s attitude towards connected cars?

A. Curious. B. Doubtful.

C. Supportive. D. Disappointed.

4.Which of the following can be the best title of the text?

A. The Future of Cars: Wireless Wheels

B. The Future Traffic Management System

C. The Benefits and Problems of Cars

D. The Promising Future of Car Production

When Dekalb Walcott III was just 8 years old, his father, a Chicago fire chief, let him tag along on a call. Dekalb says a lot of kids idolized basketball player Michael Jordan when he was growing up in Chicago in the 1990s. Not him.

"I wanted to be like Dekalb Walcott Jr.," he says of his father.

So when his dad asked if he wanted to go on that call with him when he was 8, Dekalb was excited. "I'm jumping up and down, saying, "Mom, can I go? Can I go?' "

The experience changed Dekalb's life, he tells his dad on a visit to StoryCorps. "My eyes got big from the moment the alarm went off." the younger Dekalb says. " This is the life that I want to live someday. "

Now 27, the younger Dekalb is living that life. He became a firefighter at 21 and went to work alongside his dad at the Chicago Fire Department. Before his father retired, the pair even went out on a call together — father supervising(監(jiān)督) son.

"You know, it's everything for me to watch you grow," his father says. But he also recalls worrying about one particular fire that his son faced.

"I received a phone call that night. And they said, 'Well, your son was at this fire.' I said, 'OK, which way is this conversation going to go?' " Dekalb Walcott Jr. recalls.

"And they said, 'But he's OK. And he put it out all by himself. Everybody here was proud of him.'

"And the word went around, 'Who was out there managing that fire? Oh, that's Walcott! That's Walcott up there!' So, you know, moments like that, it's heaven on Earth for a dad."

Dekalb Walcott Jr. retired in 2009. The younger Dekalb says he's proud of being a second-generation firefighter. "You know, it makes me look forward to fatherhood as well, because I'm definitely looking forward to passing that torch down to my son."

NASA is developing the capabilities needed to send humans to an asteroid(小行星)by 2025 and then Mars in the 2030s—goals outlined in NASA’s official documents 2014.

Mars is a rich destination tor scientific discovery and robotic and human exploration as we expand our presence into the solar system.Future exploration could uncover evidence of life,answering one of the fundamental mysteries:Does life exist beyond Earth?

While robotic explorers have studied Mars for more than 40 years,NASA’s path for the human exploration of Mars begins in low-Earth orbit aboard the International Space Station.Astronauts on the orbiting laboratory are helping us prove many of the technologies and communications systems needed for human missions(任務)to deep space,including Mars.The space station also advances our understanding of how the body changes in space and how to protect astronaut health.

Our next step is deep space,where NASA will send a robotic mission to catch and redirect an asteroid to orbit the moon.Astronauts aboard the Orion spacecraft will explore the asteroid in the 2020s,returning to Earth with samples.This experience in human spaceflight beyond low-Earth orbit will help NASA test new systems,which we’ll need to send cargo(貨物)as part of human missions to Mars.Beginning in FY 2018,NASA’s powerfull Space Launch System(SLS)rocket will enable these "proving ground" missions to test new technologies.Human missions to Mars will rely on Orion and an evolved version of SLS that will be the most powerful launch vehicle ever flown。

A lot of robotic spacecraft and rovers(探測器)already are on and around Mars,greatly increasing our knowledge about the Red Planet and paving the way of future human explorers.The Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity rover measured radiation on the way to Mars and is sending back radiation data from the surface.This data will help us plan how to protect the astronauts who will explore Mars.Future missions like the Mars 2020 rover,seeking signs of past life,also will demonstrate new technologies that could help astronauts survive on Mars.

Engineers and scientists around the country are working hard to develop the technologies astronauts will use to one day live and work on Mars,and safely return home from the next giant leap for humanity.NASA also is a leader in a Global Exploration Roadmap,working with international partners and the U.S.commercial space industry with human missions to the surface of Mars as the driving goal.

1.It can be learnt from the first three paragraphs that .

A.Mars is the perfect place for scientific discovery and human settlement

B.a(chǎn)stronauts’physical changes in the space station should be recorded

C.NASA intends to send robotic explorers and humans to Mars in 2025

D.a(chǎn)stronauts in the space station are testing technologies for better life on the Earth

2.The Orion Spacecraft_________.

A.will send cargo to Mars

B.was built to explore low-earth orbit

C.needs SLS rocket to finish its mission

D.will bring back samples of an asteroid

3.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?

A.the U.S.commercial space industry is a leader in exploration to Mars.

B.Many protective measures are needed when exploring Mars.

C.NASA is an agency that plans to explore Mars in secret.

D.Curiosity rover is the first rover to be sent to Mars.

4.Which can be the best title of this passage?

A.Future life on Mars
