International students are allowed to work for the university they study at or for a business at the school. But the business must directly provide a service for students. You could work at the bookstore, for example, but not for a company that is building something at the school. Also, a foreign student cannot take the place of an American in a job.

International students can work 20 hours a week while having classes; more during school breaks. You can work until you finish your studies.

International students normally cannot take a job that has nothing to do with their school. But the government may give permission if students are suddenly faced with difficulties. Examples include large medical bills, the shortage of financial (财政上的) aid or an unexpected change in the financial support.

Students must also meet other conditions (条件). They must have studied at their American school for at least one year. Students must ask for permission again after a year if they want to continue an off-campus (校外的) job.

International students who will be studying at graduate school can apply (申请) for some jobs before they come to the United States. A good example is a university job like a teaching or research assistant.

Some schools pay their assistants. Others provide free education in return. Many do both. Graduate assistants might teach, give tests, grade work, help with research and clean the offices. Many universities now provide language training for foreign teaching assistants to help them improve their English. Some schools ask foreign students to pass an English speaking test before they are allowed to teach.

International student offices at schools have to provide information on students each term for the Department of Homeland Security. Students who violate visa (签证) rules — for example, by working off-campus without permission — could be sent home.

1.What can we learn according to the passage?

A. All the international students can work for large companies.

B. International students are able to work whenever they like.

C. International students may be allowed to work outside the school when having financial trouble.

D. International students must have studied at their American school for less than a year to get a job.

2.We may infer from the passage that ____.

A. international students could apply for some jobs before coming to the US

B. all the schools pay their assistants and provide free education for them

C. international students cannot take their jobs before having language training

D. international students normally are not completely free to choose their jobs

3.The underlined word “violate” in the last paragraph probably means ____.

A. ask for B. go against C. forget D. obey

4.What is the passage mainly about?

A. The rules about getting a job while studying in the US for international students.

B. The reason why international students like studying in the United States.

C. What international students should do while working in the United States.

请认真阅读下列短文, 从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

FROM dogs and cats to pandas and penguins, lists of adorable animals can be very varied. However, when it comes to scary animals, the answers are often more or less the same – snakes and spiders are among the most dreadful ones for the majority of us.

However, most of us have never been bitten by a snake or a spider. So does this mean we are born with a fear of certain things?

Scientists have been actively looking into it for a long time. For example, studies have suggested that babies find live animals much more interesting than stuffed (毛绒填充的) ones. This interest continues even if those animals are snakes and spiders.

A study published in Psychological Science in 2008 seemed to show that snakes did have a different impact on babies. When scientists presented babies with animal videos along with random sounds of happy or frightened human voices, they found that babies looked at snakes for longer than any other animal however the voices sounded.

Now, a team from Rutgers University in New Jersey, US has tried to challenge the idea that babies are born with a fear of snakes and spiders. According to the BBC, the researchers measured babies’ physiological (生理的) responses as they watched videos of snakes and elephants paired with both fearful and happy voices.

Scientists then set out to surprise the babies to see how they would react. They presented them with an unexpected bright flash of light as they watched a video. As the BBC explained, a surprise like this would be more intense (强烈的) if the babies were already scared, just like when we watch scary films and jump more if we are already scared.

However, according to their findings, published recently in the Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, babies’ surprised responses were not bigger when watching a video of a snake, even when it was shown with a fearful voice. Their heart response was also lower, which also made it seem that babies were not scared.

“Children do not have an innate fear of snakes,” concluded the study. Even if previous studies had suggested that babies have different responses to snakes, it isn’t necessarily related to fear. “It’s possible that paying more attention to something might make fear learning easier later on. It leads to fear learning,” said research co-author Vanessa LoBue. She further explained that it was a good thing that humans didn’t have an inborn fear of snakes because it would make a young infant’s desire to explore new things less strong.

Instead, we have evolved to quickly learn to be afraid of something if it turns out to be dangerous.

1.What is the article mainly about?

A. How people’s fear of snakes and spiders has evolved.

B. Whether humans are born with a fear of snakes and spiders.

C. Why snakes and spiders are considered the most dreadful animals.

D. How babies react differently from adults to snakes and spiders.

2.What was the finding of the study published in Psychological Science in 2008?

A. The longer babies looked at snakes in the video, the less scared they were.

B. The fearful voices babies heard when watching snake videos doubled their fear of snakes.

C. Babies’ responses to the snake in the videos were greatly affected by the types of voices they heard.

D. Babies took more interest in snakes than the other animals in the videos regardless of which human voices they heard.

3. The underlined word “innate” in the second-to-last paragraph is the closest in meaning to ______.

A. from birth B. from learning

C. lasting D. immediate

4.How did babies react when the researchers from Rutgers University surprised them while they were watching a video of a snake?

A. They paid more attention to the snakes when they heard a fearful voice.

B. Babies’ heart responses changed slightly when they heard a fearful voice.

C. A fearful voice didn’t make their surprised response become more intense.

D. They became more scared when they experienced an unexpected bright flash of light.

5. According to Vanessa LoBue, since babies don’t have an inborn fear of snakes, ______

A. it would make it easier for them to learn fear

B. it would make them more willing to explore new things

C. it would lead them to stay away from dangerous things

D. it would encourage them not to be afraid of anything

Growing up is not easy. Sometimes all that is need is someone to rely on. For many years, she was Mum. My mother was a career woman and has her own problems to take care, but when I needed her, she was always there. Her strength came from anywhere, I don't quite know, somewhere very deep. She was so strong that she would never break down, even while I went to her with all my little boy’s annoyed problems and shout at her. Her strength made me stronger and gave to me courage to try things other thought were impossible. A helping hand is always stronger enough to lift you up.
