"I wasted a whole year of my life doing nothing but exercise，"she says．（51）B"I thought we'd see more of each other if we worked out together．"When that relationship ended，she fell in love with the thrill of keeping her body in tip-top condition．
"Every evening，I left the insurance company where I worked and dashed off to the club，"says Erica．"（52）D But not me．All I would do is rushing off to the gym for five-hour sessions．I went through the lot each night-aerobics，a weights circuit in the gym，then a swim．I would get home after 11pm，have something to eat and fall into bed．It was the same every weekday．On Saturdays，I might spend even longer in the gym．"
"I just poured all my money into the gym．Membership and classes came to around?100a
month，plus I had to buy clothing and equipment．（53）A

    （74）FYou should all sit down somewhere together with lots of pieces of paper and write down every name you can think up．That'll keep you busy for ages．

2．A．Classroom participation
B．Differences in American university education
C．Examination system
D．Competition among students
E．Honest policy in students'school work
F．Students'responsibility for learning
61．B
There is considerable variety in university classrooms in the United States．Because of diverse teaching methods and non-standardized curricula （课程），no two courses are the same．Undergraduate courses are considerable different from graduate courses．The classroom atmosphere in expensive，private universities may differ from that in community colleges，which are free and open to everyone．
62．A
Participation in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student in many courses．Some professors base part of the final grade on the student's oral participation．Although there are formal lectures during which the student has a passive role （i．e．，listening and taking notes），many courses are organized around classroom discussions，student questions，and informal lectures．
63．F
Many teachers believe that the responsibility for learning lies with the student．（Courses are not designed merely for students to pass exams．） The ideal student is considered to be one who is motivated to learn for the sake of learning，not the one interested only in getting high grades．
64．E
Ideally，the teacher-student relationship at universities is characterized by trust．Thus，cheating on tests，plagiarizing （抄袭） in written work，presenting other's ideas as original，and turning in homework completed by someone else are all prohibited （禁止）．
65．D
Relationships between students in the classroom can be cooperative or competitive．International students should not hesitate to ask for help if it is needed．In classes where such a grading curve is used，students may be reluctant to share lecture notes or information for fear that their own grades will suffer．
