University — the best days of my life! I made lots of friends in my student dorm, went to great parties, joined the debating society... and, well, I did some work too — but I must admit that my lecturers were very patient with my tardiness (拖沓).

It is easy to look back at our university days in good ways but the truth is that when we first arrived on campus, most of us were out of our comfort zone. In fact, a survey of students at Imperial College London has showed that 3 out of 4 students experience high levels of stress, or a mental health condition, during their time at college. The survey, conducted by over a thousand students, also found that 70% of those that experience stress do so at least once a week, and 9% of them feel stressed constantly.

Kristy, a student at Exeter University, didn’t enjoy her first days in college. She says: “When I first got to university I don’t think I’d realized that I’d forgotten how to make friends. I’d been with the same school friends for seven years, and so I was trying to balance social success with academic success while learning how to look after myself at quite at a young age."

Dr. Ruth Caleb of the counseling service at Brunei University in London has some tips that should make life easier for students before they set off for university. She says: “Certain things that I think it would be very helpful for students to have put in place are an ability to do the practical things of life — to do the washing, to do the cleaning and so on— being able to cook. Budgeting(预算) is extremely important in university life.” And Caleb adds: “You should learn how to spend time on your own comfortably.”

I graduated and learnt how to take care of myself the hard way. I hope that new students these days remember to acquire some life skills before they make the big jump.

1.How does the writer feel about his university life?

A. Challenging but wonderful.

B. Busy and tiring.

C. Dull and stressful.

D. Boring but successful.

2.Which is true about students who first enter university?

A. Most of them suffer from frequent stress.

B. Most of them find it hard to manage their life.

C. They fail to balance social and academic life.

D. They feel as comfortable as they expect.

3.Dr. Ruth Caleb thinks budgeting is of great importance because it_________.

A. helps students put everything in place

B. helps students live independently

C. makes students' university life easier

D. does good to students’ social relationships

4.Which is closest in meaning to the underlined part in the last paragraph?

C. Get used to university life

D. Go to university.

Tsinghua University, ______ in 1911, is home to a great number of outstanding figures.

A. founded B. founding C. found D. to be founded

On Jan 15th, 2015, Justin Valdez, a college student, was shot in a subway station in San Francisco. The surveillance video(监控录像) showed that before Justin was killed, the killer pulled out his gun several times, and even wiped his nose with it. However, nobody noticed the killer. The surrounding passengers all focused on their cell phones.

We may see the same scene everywhere in our life: in subway stations, restaurants, elevators and so on, people are watching their cell phones. From a family reunion to a date with a friend, people couldn’t stop checking their twitter and facebook on the cell phones, ignoring the persons in front completely. Phubbing(低头症) not only involves young people, but also the elderly and kids.

“Phubbing” is a new term which comes from the words “phone’’ and “snub(冷落)”. It describes the habit of snubbing someone in favor of a cell phone. The word “phubbing” was included in the Australian National Dictionary in 2012. Obviously, the indifference(冷漠) and rudeness of the information age are spreading globally. A Stop Phubbing campaign website has been set up. You can find the slogan of the website as follows: “stop twittering, stop posting photos…enjoy your food, enjoy the music and respect others.”

Phubbing appears harmless. However, it does influence our life. Jimmy, an epicure(美食家), wrote in his blog: “I can no longer focus on what I am eating since I started twittering. My skill of food photography has improved very fast, while my interest in food drops as a result.”

Let us put down our cell phones and re-enjoy the real taste of our food and the warmth of interpersonal communication.

1.The case of Justin Valdez is given in the first paragraph to show

A. gun violence happens easily in the US

B. phubbing may lead to terrible disasters

C. the killer didn’t mean to kill him

D. the killer had made a careful plan

2.Jimmy’s words suggest that

A. phubbing is actually harmless

B. phubbing stops people enjoying their life

C. phubbing affects people’s eating habits the most

D. phubbing helps people improve their photographic skills

3.What is the text mainly about?

A. How the word “phubbing” came into being.

B. The popular campaign of stop phubbing.

C. The meaning of the word “phubbing”.

D. The great harm of phubbing.

A strong memory depends on the health and vitality （活力） of your brain. They say that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, but when it comes to the brain, scientists have discovered that this old saying simply isn’t true. 1.

Give your brain a workout. Memory, like muscular strength, requires you to “use it or lose it”. The more you work out your brain, the better you’ll be able to process and remember information. 2.

Don’t skip the physical exercise. While mental exercise is important for brain health, that doesn’t mean you never need to break a sweat. Physical exercise helps your brain stay sharp. It increases oxygen to your brain and reduces the risk for disorders that lead to memory loss.

Get enough sleep. There is a big difference between the amount of sleep you can get by on and the amount you need to function at your best. 3.

Keep stress in check. Stress is one of the brain’s worst enemies. Over time, stress destroys brain cells. Studies have also linked stress to memory loss.

Have a laugh. 4. That holds true for the brain and the memory, as well as the body. Unlike emotional responses, which are limited to specific areas of the brain, laughter engages multiple regions across the whole brain.

5. Just as the body needs fuel, so does the brain. You probably already know that a diet based on fruits, vegetables, whole grains, “healthy” fats and lean protein will provide lots of health benefits, but such a diet can also improve memory. For brain health, though, it’s not just what you eat—it’s also what you don’t eat.

A. Eat a brain-boosting diet.

B. Play games with memory.

C. Laughter is the best medicine.

D. But oversleeping is not good for your brain.

E. Even skipping a few hours makes a difference!

F. You have to shake things up from time to time!

G. The human brain has an astonishing ability to adapt and change.

Following the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge,Australia plans to build a new landmark—a Chinese theme park,including a full-sized replica(复制品)of the gates to Beijing’s Forbidden City.The plan,which will cost ￡330 million,has been passed by the local government.This big park is to be built in Wyong Shire,about 50 miles north of Sydney.

The local mayor,Doug Eaton,said the park,to be finished in 2020,was built to become one of the country’s main tourist attractions.“What this park will do is to turn Wyong into a tourist destination and bring millions of money into the area.”The government has agreed to sell the land to the Australian Chinese Theme Park Pty Ltd,the personal company behind the project.The big project will begin with the building of the Forbidden City gates in 2015.

Besides a full-sized replica of the gates to Beijing’s Forbidden City,the park will also have a huge temple with a giant Buddha(佛)and a mini-city looking like Chinese water towns.There is also a part in the building style of the Tang and Song dynasties and another in the style of the Ming and Qing dynasties.It will feature a 1,000-seat theatre,restaurants,a royal villa(皇家别墅),and a children’s part built for pandas,which won’t have any pandas.

“It’s going to be a special $500 million tourist attraction,engaging more than a thousand people to work for it and bringing fast development to Wyong,”said Bruce Zhong,chairman of the ACTP.The project is designed to create a big Chinese tourist market.Experiences in many countries have shown that the more one attracts Chinese tourists,the more money one would make.For example,more than 400,000 Chinese tourists visit the state of New South Wales each year.

In ancient Egypt,a shopkeeper discovered that he could attract customers to his shop simply by making changes to its environment.Modern businesses have been following his lead,with more tactics(策略).

One tactic involves where to display the goods.For example,stores place fruits and vegetables in the first section.They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy more junk food(垃圾食品) later in their trip.In department stores,the women’s shoe section is generally next to the women’s cosmetics(化妆品) section:while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe,bored customers are likely to wander over and find some cosmetics they might want to try later.

Besides,businesses seek to appeal to customers’ senses.Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping,so they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day.Music sells goods,too.Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played,sales of French wines went up.

When it comes to the selling of houses,businesses also use highly rewarding tactics.They find that customers make decisions in the first few seconds upon walking in the door,and turn it into a business opportunity.A California builder designed the structure of its houses smartly.When entering the house,the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the windows, and then the pool through an open stairway leading to the lower level.The instant view of water on both levels helped sell these $10 million houses.

1.Why do stores usually display fruits and vegetables in the first section?

A.To save customers time.

B.To show they are high quality foods.

C.To help sell junk food.

D.To sell them at discount prices.

2.According to Paragraph 3,which of the following encourages customers to buy?

A.Opening the store early in the morning.

B.Displaying British wines next to French ones.

C.Inviting customers to play music.

D.Filling the store with the smell of fresh bread.

3.What is the California builder’s story intended to prove?

A.The house structure is a key factor customers consider.

B.The more costly the house is,the better it sells.

C.An ocean view is much to the customers’ taste.

D.A good first impression increases sales.

4.What is the main purpose of the passage?

A.To explain how businesses turn people into their customers.

B.To introduce how businesses have grown from the past.

C.To report researches on customer behavior.

D.To show dishonest business practices.
