Divers from the study group have discovered（65）a building scientists think is the remains of a temple（66）built （build） by the people who once lived beside the lake．The project leaders hope to begin raising important materials from the site later this week unless bad weather forces a change in their plans．
"The scientists have not yet had the opportunity to study the materials（67）carefully（careful），"said project director，John Aubi．"But some have put forward the idea that the remains date from this period because of their（68）similarity/similarities （similar） to those found elsewhere．"

13．Importance of College Education
During the high school career，students may begin to question the importance of a college education．They might find themselves asking，"Why is it important to go to college？"The answer is that，more than ever，college graduates enjoy much greater opportunities available to them than those who have not received a college education．
For many high school students，being able to immediately generate an income after graduation is an appealing thought．They may also be affected by the rising cost of tuition，and while it is true that a higher education may be one of the largest expenses you will ever face，the importance of a college education has become quite evident in terms of earning potential within today's economy．
Why should you go to college？One important answer to this question is more opportunity．As opposed to generations of the past，high school graduates today are unable to obtain high-paying jobs that were once available．The U．S．has been transformed from a manufacturing-based economy to an economy based on knowledge，and the importance of a college education today can be compared to that of a high school education forty years ago．It serves as the gateway to better options and more opportunity．
There are additional reasons as to why it is important to go to college．When students experience a post secondary education，they have the opportunity to read books and listen to the lectures of top experts in their fields．This encourages students to think，ask questions，and explore new ideas，which allows for additional growth and development and provides college graduates with more opportunities in the job market over those who have not experienced a higher education．
The importance of a college education is also stressed because of the opportunity to gain valuable resources during the study．The more connections which are collected during your college career，the more options you will have when you begin your job search．Once you have ended your job search and have started your career，however，the importance of a college education has not been exhausted．Having a college degree often provides for greater promotion opportunity．
So，why should you go to college？The reasoning does not begin and end with the job aspect．A good education is beneficial from many different viewpoints，and though the importance of a college education is quite evident for many high school students，what is often not as clear is how they will pay for that education．

67．Why do some high school graduates prefer working to college study？B
A．To obtain high-paying jobs．
B．To earn money at an early age．
C．To spend less money on tuition．
D．To adapt to the knowledge-based society．
68．The author most likely agrees with the idea thatC．
A．too much time is spent on lectures in college study．
B．high school education is a gateway to more opportunity．
C．college graduates gain more chances over others in job market．
D．a college degree guarantees promotion in American companies．
69．What is most likely to be talked about in the paragraph after the last paragraph of the passage？A
A．Affording college education．
B．Changing college education．
C．Receiving college education．
D．Refusing college education．
70．Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage？D

20．Gamblers （赌徒）at Monte Carlo are pursuing money，and most of them lose it instead，but there are other ways of pursuing money，which often succeed．So it is with happiness．Epicurus，a Greek philosopher，pursued it by living only in pleasant society and eating only dry bread for the sake of his poor health，with a little cheese on feast days．His method proved successful in his case，but something more nutritious would be needed for most people，for whom the pursuit of happiness，unless supplemented （补充）in various ways，is too abstract and theoretical to be adequate as a personal rule of life．
We imagine ourselves more different from the animals than we are．Animals live on impulse （冲动），and are happy as long as external conditions are favorable．A cat will enjoy life if it has food and warmth and opportunities for an occasional night on the roof．Your needs are more complex than those of a cat，but they still have their basis related to nature．In civilized societies，especially in English-speaking societies，this is too likely to be forgotten．People propose to themselves some topmost objective，and prevent all impulses that do not seem to serve it．A businessman may be so anxious to grow rich that he sacrifices health and private affections．When at last he has become rich，no pleasure remains to him except annoying other people by inspirations to imitate his noble example．Many rich ladies，although nature has not qualified them with any spontaneous （自发的）pleasure in literature or art，decide to be thought cultured，and spend boring hours learning the right thing to say about fashionable new books that are written to give delight，not to afford opportunities for dusty snobbism （势利）．
If you look around at the men and women whom you can call happy，you will see that they all have certain things in common．The most important of these things is an activity which at most gradually builds up something that you are glad to see coming into existence．Women who take an instinctive pleasure in their children can get this kind of satisfaction out of bringing up a family．Artists and authors and men of science get happiness in this way if their own work seems good to them．Also，many men devote their weekends to voluntary and unpaid laboi in their gardens，and when the spring comes，they experience all the joys of having created beauty．
The whole subject of happiness has，in my opinion，been treated too seriously．It had been thought that man cannot be happy without a theory of life or a religion．Perhaps those who have been led to unhappiness by a bad theory may need a better theory to help them to recovery，just as you may need a tonic （补药）when you have been ill．But when things are normal a man should be healthy without a tonic．It is the simple things that really matter．If a man delights in his wife and children，has success in work，and finds pleasure in the alternation of day and night，spring and autumn，he will be happy whatever his philosophy may be．If，on the other hand，he finds his wife fiatetlil，his children's noise unbearable，and the office a nightmare； if in the daytime he longs for night，and at night sighs for the light of day，then what he needs is not a new philosophy but a new lifestyle 一 a different diet，or more exercise，or what not．
Man is an animal，and his happiness depends on his physiology （生理）more than he likes to think．This is a simple conclusion，but 1cannot make myself disbelieve it．Unhappy businessmen，1am convinced，would increase their happiness more by walking six miles every day than by any imaginable change of philosophy．

66．What does the author think of Epicurus'way of pursuing happiness？C
A．It deserves wide recognition．
B．It helps gamblers pursue money．
C．It is suitable for a few individuals．
D．It is adequate as a personal rule of life．
67．From the passage，we can learnB．

D．humans should learn to avoid high expectations
68．The businessman mentioned in the passageD．
A．succeeds in inspiring people around him
B．attaches little importance to his life goal
C．makes efforts to meet basic requirements
D．ends up with wealth but little happiness
69．According to the passage，what do happy people have in common？D
A．They are good at reading some fashionable new books．
B．They expect both family happiness and career success．
C．They possess the spirit of sacrifice without any reward．
D．They get satisfaction from their worthwhile activities．
70．What's the author's opinion of life philosophy？A
A．Philosophy shouldn't be stressed too much in our life．
B．Philosophy plays a more important role than lifestyle．
C．Philosophy will determine how happy people feel．
D．Philosophy is generally based on one's physiology．

17．Olaf Stapledon wrote a book called First and Last Men，in which he looked millions of years ahead．He told of different men and of strange civilizations，broken up by long"dark ages"in between．In his view，what is called the present time is no more than a moment in human history and we are just the First Men．In 2，000 million years from now there will be the Eighteenth or Last Men．
However，most of our ideas about the future are really very short-sighted．Perhaps we can see some possibilities for the next fifty years．But the next hundred？The next thousand？The next million？That's much more difficult．
When men and women lived by hunting 50，000 years ago，how could they even begin to picture modern life？Yet to men of 50，000 years from now，we may seem as primitive in our ideas as the Stone-Age hunters do to us．Perhaps they will spend their days gollocking to make new spundels，or struggling with their ballalators through the cribe．These words，which I have just made up，have to stand for things and ideas that we simply can't think of．
So why bother even to try imagining life far in the future？Here are two reasons．First，unless we remember how short our own lives are compared with the whole human history，we are likely to think our own interests are much more important than they really are．If we make the earth a poor place to live because we are careless or greedy or quarrelsome，our grandchildren will not bother to think of excuses for us．
Second，by trying to escape from present interests and imagine life far in the future，we may arrive at quite fresh ideas that we can use ourselves．For example，if we imagine that in the future men may give up farming，we can think of trying it now．So set you imagination free when you think about the future．

28．A particular mention made of Stapledon's book in the opening paragraphB．
A．serves as a description of human history
B．serves an introduction to the discussion
C．shows a disagreement of view's
D．shows the popularity of the book

A．human history is extremely long
B．life has changed a great deal
C．it is useless to plan for the next 50years
D．it is difficult to tell what will happen in the future
30．Spundels and ballalators are used in the text to refer toC．
A．tools used in farming
B．ideas about modern life
C．unknown things in the future
D．hunting skills in the Stone Age
31．According to the writer of the text，imagining the future willA．

18．On the first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn't know．I looked round when a gentle hand touched my shoulder．I turned around to find a wrinkled，little old lady with a smile．She said，Hi，handsome．My name is Rose．I'm eighty-seven years old．Can I give you a hug？"I laughed and enthusiastically responded，"Of course you may!"she gave me a giant squeeze．"Why are you in college at such a young，innocent age？" I asked．"I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one!"she told me．After class we walked to the Student Union building and shared a chocolate milkshake．We became instant friends．
Every day of the next three months we would leave class together and talk nonstop．I was always listening to this"time machine"as she shared her wisdom and experience with me．Over the course of the year，Rose became a campus icon and she easily made friends wherever she went．At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football dinner．I'll never forget what she taught us．"We do not stop playing because we are old； we grow old because we stop playing．There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up．Anybody can grow older．That doesn't take any talent or ability．The idea is to grow up by always finding opportunities in change．Have no regrets．The elderly usually don't have regrets for what we did，but rather for things we did not do．The only people who fear death are those with regrets．"She concluded her speech by courageously singing"The Rose"．She challenged each of us to study the lyrics and live them out in our daily life．At the year's end she finished the college degree she had begun all those years．One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep．
