17．In the US and Britain，the slogan around colleges was"Save water．Shower with a friend．"Now，Wuhan University has come up with another system for the campus bathhouse．It charges students for the amount of time in a shower．Before entering the bathhouse，students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower with cash or their student ID card．The clock starts ticking the minute the tape is turned on．It pauses when a button is pressed for soap．An integrated circuit （IC） card reader at each tap shows the time．No money，no water．The benefits of the new system
can be seen with the old system which charged 1 yuan for each person regardless of time in the shower．The university used  about 320 tons of water daily under the old system，but only 160 tons now．
     Many students use the new system but opinions on it are divided．Some students say it is  uncomfortable，because bathing had become a sort of race．Many people using it for the first time are not sure how long they need to shower．Some might be embarrassed if their time is UP and they're still covered in soap．They have to ask the bathhouse worker to help them buy extra time．
"It's a flaw in the system that you can not buy extra time on the ID card，"said Ren，a freshman．The University is also considering some student's suggestions that they be allowed to pay after they've finished the shower．Not surprisingly，some are complaining about losing the hour shower．But many students say the move helps them develop a water-saving sense．
     Without the time limit，most students tended to shower for half to an hour in the bathhouse．
     Some even used the hot water to wash their clothes．"In my experience，10-20 minutes is enough，"said Dai Zhihua，a third-year student who usually takes 8 minutes．
     A similar system has been installed in other universities．Shanghai Normal University introduced it at its Fengxiang Campus in September．The bathing fee there is 0.2 yuan per minute．One male student responded by setting a record with a two-minute shower．

41．According to the passage，which of the following is NOT true？A
    A．A student has to pay when a bath is over．
    B．The clock keeps timing except the pause for soap．
    C．If money runs out，there will be no water．
    D．Students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower．
42．The author's attitude toward the new bathhouse System in Wuhan University isD  
    A．critical          B．serious       C．appreciative       D．not mentioned
43，Since the new system was performed，Cof water has been saved．
    A．a quarter       B．one third      C．one half         D．two thirds
44．It can be inferred from the passage thatB   
    A．the new operation can solve the problem of water crisis
    B．the new operation can raise students'environmental awareness
    C．a similar operation will be set in other universities
    D．Most students spend less than half an hour showering in the bathroom．
45．In which column can you find this passage？C

14．Even when you're extremely busy，you aren't using your time with 100% efficiency．There are gaps in everyone's schedule where they aren't doing anything important．Even if your schedule has no gaps，there is probably lots of time where you aren't working as fast or as effectively as you possibly could．
Why aren't you completely efficient？It's because time isn't the limiting factor．If it were the limiting factor，people could work non-stop without breaks or any unproductive distractions（消遣）．Instead，people，even those who are highly productive，need to take breaks，occasionally procrastinate（拖延） and slow down on tasks throughout the day．
The real and most important limiting factor for productivity is your energy levels to pay attention．Energy levels limit your productivity because when you're tired，you can have ample time and still not get everything done．Your attention ability is also limited，because even if there are a million things that need to be done，you can only focus on one or two at a time．
You might not be able to insert another 4-5hours into your schedule without making some sacrifices（牺牲）．But even extremely busy people can add an hour or two into their schedule without cancelling anything．The reason it's hard to"find time"isn't a lack of time．It's because you don't have enough energy left to focus on something else that needs to fit into your day．
I first suspected time wasn't the real problem during an extremely busy period in my life over a year ago．I was insanely busy，but at that time I still exercised regularly．I had daily to-do lists with over twenty items，and I still found time to exercise．However，after a few weeks off，due to illness，I stopped exercising．I was not busy by any standards，in fact，my schedule was incredibly light．Despite this free time，I found it hard to find time to exercise．It seemed to get pushed later and later into my schedule until it was gone．How can I explain this odd experience？I believe you have known it．

26．If someone can't work with 100% efficiency，the most important limiting factor isD．
A．a schedule without gaps               B．breaks and distractions
C．the limited time                      D．the limited energy
27．According to paragraph 4，everyone，including the extremely busy people，canC．
A．work without any rest                   B．focus on many things at a time
C．find some more time in a day            D．do some exercise regularly
28．After a few weeks off，what was the change of the writer's life？B
A．He had a longer daily to-do lists with over twenty items．
B．He stopped doing exercise because of the lack of energy．
C．He found it hard to find time to exercise because he was busier．
D．He pushed most of the things later and later in his schedule．
29．The writer gives the example of himself in the last paragraph in order toA．
A．prove what the real limiting factor is
B．show us how busily he needs to work
C．explain how important a healthy body is
D．tell us what an odd experience he has
30．What is the best title of the passage？A
A．Are You Really Lack of Time？
B．How Can You Work Efficiently？

19．About 30years ago，I left Cuba for the United States with my son．After getting settled finally in Brunswick，New Jersey，I enrolled（注册） my son in kindergarten．Several weeks later，my son's teacher asked me to meet him at his office．
In the teacher's office，and exchange of greetings was followed by his questions："Is your son mentally retarded（弱智的）？Does he suffer from any kind of mental disability？"
Was he talking about my wonderful Scola？NO，no，it can't be．What a helpless，lonely moment!I told him that Scola was a quiet，sweet little boy，instead．I asked him why he was asking me all these questions．
My son could not follow the teacher's directions，he told me，and thus，Scola was disrupting the class．Didn't he know my son did not speak English yet？
He was angry；"Why hasn't your son been taught to speak English？Don't you speak English at home？"
No，I didn't speak English at home，I replied．I was sure my son would learn English in a couple of months，and I didn't want him to forget his native language．Well，wrong answer!What kind of person would not speak in English to her son at home and at all time？"Are you one of those people who come to this country to save dollars and send them back to their country，never wanting to be a part of this society？"
Needless to say，I tried to tell him I was not one of"those people．"Then he told me the meeting was over，and I left．
As I had expected，my son learned to speak English fluently before the school year was over．He went on to graduate from college and got a job，earning close to six figures．He travels widely and leads a well-adjusted，contented life．And he has benefited from being bilingual（双语的）．
Speaking more than one language allows people to communicate with others； it teaches people about other cultures and other places-something very basic and obviously lacking in the"educator"I met in New Jersey．
32．The teacher asked the author to his officeA．
A．to discuss Scola's in-class performance       
B．to get Scola enrolled in kindergarten
C．to find a language partner for Scola          
D．to work out a study plan for Scola
33．What does the underlined word"disrupting"in Paragraph 4probably mean？D
A．Breaking      
B．Following      
C．Attending       
D．Disturbing
34．The author's attitude towards being bilingual may best be described asC．
A．critical        
B．casual         
C．positive        
D．passive
35．This text is likely to be selected from a book ofB．
A．medicine      
B．education       
C．geography      
D．history．
