2．It was my birthday last year．Every year，my parents prepared abirthday giftfor me．So that day I was expecting a birthday gift，too．After I came back from school，I sawmy motherwatching TV in the sitting room．
"Mom，where is my birthday gift？"I asked．Hearin g that，my mother looked up at me．She looked surprised．Then she said，"Sorry，I totally forgot it's your birthda y today．I haven't got a birthday gift for you．"I was very sadto hear that．I went to my room and shut the door．
About half an hour later，my mother came and knocked on the door．She told me supper was ready．
"Come out to eat quickly，"she said as if nothing had happened．After I went out，I saw my mother and father sitting at the table．I came to the table，unhappy．
"So how is everything going in school？"while eating，my father asked．
"Nothing special，"I said in a low voice．
   After supper，my father said，"Let's go out and enjoy a ride．"
   I wasn't in a good mood，so I said，"I don't feel like going anywhere．"
   My father smiled and said，"Follow me．You won't get disappointed．"
   Looking at the smile on my father's face，I suddenly cheered up．I was sure my parents had prepared a surprise for me．So I followed．
   Then we went out of the house and got onmy father's car．I thought they were taking me to the downtown area to get a birthday gift or watch a show at a theater．
However，after a while，I realized we were not heading to the downtown area．Instead，we were going in the opposite direction．I became very curious．About half an hour later，my father stopped the car on a farm．The owner of the farm came out to greet us．The air was sweet and warm．There were many goats there．The farmer's daughter gave me a baby goatto hold．I suddenly knew it was my birthday gift．

19．College visits are important．Before you commit years of your life and money to a school，be sure you're choosing a place that is a good match for your personality and interests．You can't get the"feel"of a school from any guidebook，so be sure to visit the campus．Below are a few tips for getting the most out of your college visit．
Explore on Your Own
Of course you should take an official campus tour，but be sure to allow time to hang around on your own．The trained tour guides will show you a school's selling points．But the oldest and prettiest buildings don't give you the entire picture of a college．Try to walk the extra mile and get the complete picture of the campus．
Read the Bulletin Boards
When you visit the student center，academic buildings and residence halls，take a few minutes to read the bulletin boards．They provide an easy way to see what's happening on campus．The ads for lectures，clubs and plays can tell you what's going on outside the classrooms．
Eat in the Dining Hall
You can get a good feel for student life by eating in the dining hall．Try to sit with students if you can．Do the students seem happy or stressed？Also，is the food good？Are there rich healthy options？Many admission offices will give prospective students coupons（优惠券） for free meals in the dining hall．
Visit a Class in Your Major
If you know what you want to study，a class visit makes a lot of sense．You'll get to observe other students in your field and see how involved they are in classroom discussion．Try to stay after class for a few minutes and chat with the students to get their impressions of their professors and major．Be sure to call in advance to schedule a classroom visit-most colleges don't allow visitors to drop in on class unannounced．
Talk to Lots of Students
Your campus tour guide has been trained to market the school．Try to talk to students who aren't getting paid to impress you．These important conversations can often provide you with information about college life that isn't part of the admission script．Few university officials will tell you if their students spend all weekend drinking or studying，but a group of random students might．

6．When you need a job very much，you may end up taking one for which you are over qualified．Although you were initially grateful just to have the work，you now feel bored and depressed．Is there any way to change that？
Start by changing your opinion，says Caitlin Kelly，the author of Malled，a book based on her experience as a sales clerk after losing her job in journalism．"Don't focus on what you're not getting but what you are getting，"she says．"Be patient and work attentively with a wide range of people．It doesn't matter what the job is-there are always things you can learn and skills you can develop．"
Hilary Pearl，the founder of a coaching firm，says，"Tell yourself the current situation isn't the end of your career．Don't overdramatize（过分夸大）the negative aspects but try to view the situation more philosophically：life has a series of stages，and this is one of them．Don't forget to study even in the worst stage．"
Consider that because you're overqualified，you may be able to learn or do things on the job that might not have been possible in a more demanding position，says Sarah Hathorn，the chief executive of Illustra Consulting．"You could spend your extra time in learning different aspects of the business and teaching others in the organization，"she says．
Is it possible to make your work more challenging，even if your job responsibilities aren't likely to change？
Of course，you may seek tasks and responsibilities that force you to learn something new or to work harder．"You may be operating on autopilot（习惯性地）right now，but chances are that people above you are stressed，"Sarah Hathorn says．"Take things off your boss's plate and let him know which projects or tasks you want to learn more about．"
Always express your request positively，saying that you love new challenges，rather than complaining that you're bored and underused，says Ethun，the president of the Park Avenue Group．In your down time，educate yourself about the company and its industry．"Read corporate information，analyst reports and related news articles，"she says．"If your boss accepts your suggestions，it will make you a more valuable employee．"
65．According to Caitlin Kelly，C．
A．one should be willing to do some small things
B．being a salesman is not as important as being a journalist
C．performing your regular duties well is important
D．doing a simple job well will bring you a sense of success
66．What Hilary Pearl intends to express is thatD．
A．work is just a stage of our whole life
B．the present job doesn't matter to us in a long run
C．one should be satisfied with his present situation
D．one should look forward instead of complaining about the present situation
67．The underlined words"take things off your boss's plate"meanB．
A．draw your boss's attention             
B．share your boss's burdens
C．give your boss useful advice        
D．ask your boss for a better position

A．One should start his career from doing a simple job．
B．One should improve himself and help others as well．
C．One should keep learning new things to improve himself．

3．My heart sank when the man at the immigration（移民）counter gestured to the back room．I was born and raised in America，and this was Miami，where I live，but they weren't quite ready to let me in yet．
"Please wait in here，Ms．Abujaber，"the immigration officer said．My husband，with his very American last name，accompanied me．He was getting used to this．The same thing had happened recently in Canada when I'd flown to Montreal to speak at a book event．That time they held me for 45minutes．Today we were returning from a literary festival in Jamaica，and I was shocked
That I was being sent"in back"once again．
The officer behind the counter called me up and said，"Miss，your name looks like the name of someone who's on our wanted list．We're going to have to check you out with Washington．"
"How long will it take？"
"Hard to say…a few minutes，"he said，"We'll call you when we're ready for you．"After an hour，Washington still hadn't decided anything about me．
"Isn't this computerized？"I asked at the counter，"Can't you just look me up？"
"Just a few more minutes，"they assured me．
After an hour and a half，I pulled my cell phone out to call the friends I was supposed to meet that evening．An officer rushed over．"No phones!"he said，"For all we know you could be calling a terrorist cell and giving them information．"
"I'm just a university professor，"I said．My voice came out in a squeak．
"Of course you are．And we take people like you out of here in leg irons every day．"
I put my phone away．
My husband and I were getting hungry and tired．Whole families had been brought into the waiting room，and the place was packed with excitable children，exhausted parents，and even a flight attendant．
I wanted to scream，to jump on a chair and shout："I'm an American citizen； a novelist； I probably teach English literature to your children．"
After two hours in detention （扣押），I was approached by one of the officers．"You're free to go，"he said．No explanation or apologies．For a moment，neither of us moved．We were still in shock．Then we leaped to our feet．
"Oh，one more thing，"he handed me a tattered photocopy（破烂的复印件） with an address on it，"If you aren't happy with your treatment，you can write to this agency．"
"Will they respond？"I asked．
"I don't know-I don't know of anyone who's ever written to them before．"Then he added，"By the way，this will probably keep happening each time you travel internationally．"
"What can I do to keep it from happening again？"
He smiled the empty smile we'd seen all day，"Absolutely nothing．"
After telling several friends about our ordeal，probably the most frequent advice I've heard in response is to change my name．Twenty years ago，my own graduate school writing professor advised me to write under a pen name so that publishers wouldn't stick me in what he called"the ethnic ghetto"-a separate，secondary shelf in the bookstore．But a name is an integral part of anyone's personal and professional identity-just like the town you're born in and the place where you're raised．
Like my father，I'll keep the name，but my airport experience has given me a whole new perspective on what diversity and tolerance are supposed to mean．I had no idea that being an American would ever be this hard．

66．The author was held at the airport becauseD．
A．she had been held in Montreal               B．she had spoken at a book event
C．she and her husband returned from Jamaica   D．her name was similar to a terrorist's
67．She was not allowed to call her friends becauseA．
A．her identity hadn't been confirmed yet
B．she had been held for only one hour and a half
C．there were other families in the waiting room
D．she couldn't use her own cell phone
68．We learn from the passage that the author wouldB to prevent similar experience from happening again．
A．change her name                B．do nothing
C．write to the agency            D．avoid traveling abroad
69．Her experiences indicate that there still existsC in the US．
A．tolerance         B．diversity（差异）  C．discrimination（歧视） D．hatred
70．The author soundsA in the last paragraph．
A．ironic （具有讽刺意味的）  B．impatient     C．worried       D．bitter．
20．It is said that Japanese people like a dish made ofraw（生的）fish．
1．All hopes of a peaceful settlement weredestroyed（destroy） by the bomb（炸弹）．
