17．Six Sigma is a process that helps companies focus on developing and delivering near-perfect products and services．The word"sigma"is a statistical term that measures how far a given process falls short of perfection．The central idea behind Six Sigma is that if a company can measure how many"defects"they have in a commercial production process，they can systematically figure out how to get rid of the problems and get as close to"zero defects"as possible．
Training and teamwork are fundamental elements of the Six Sigma methodology．In other words，companies need to have their team leaders and team members trained to carry out the Six Sigma processes．They must learn to use the measurement and improvement tools．They also need to learn communication skills necessary for them to involve customers and suppliers and to serve their needs．
Six Sigma was developed in 1986by Motorola，an American telecommunications company．Engineers in Motorola used it as an informal name for a plan to reduce faults in production processes．A few years later，Motorola extended the name"Six Sigma"to mean a general performance improvement method，beyond purely"defect reduction"in the production process．In 1995，Jack Welch，CEO of General Electrics（GE），decided to adopt Six Sigma in GE；and by 1998GE claimed that Six Sigma had brought about over three-quarters of a billion dollars of cost savings．
By 2000，Six Sigma was effectively established as an industry in its own right，involving the training，consultancy and practicing of Six Sigma methodology in all sorts of organizations around the world．Organizations as diverse as local governments，prisons，hospitals，the armed forces banks，and multi-national corporations have been adopting Six Sigma for quality and process improvement．

32．According to the passage，what is"Six Sigma"？B
A．A digital device to speed up production processes．
B．A set of techniques for quality and process improvement．
C．A program for training business leaders and employees．
D．A near-perfect process in business communication．

34．Which of the following best expresses the main idea of Paragraph 2？D
A．Team leaders are responsible for training．
B．Measurement and improvement tools must be used．
C．It's necessary to learn communication skills．
D．It's important to have a well-trained team．
35．Which of the following is true？B

7．The federal school lunch program for 30 million low-income children was created more than half a century ago to combat malnutrition（营养不良）．A breakfast program was added during the 1960s，and both attempted to improve the nutritional value of food served at school．
More must be done to fight the childhood obesity（肥胖） epidemic，which has caused a frightening peak in weight-related disorders like diabetes，high-blood pressure and heart disease among young people．The place to start is schools，where junk food sold outside the federal meals program-through snack bars and vending machines-has pretty much canceled out the benefits of all those efforts．
Federal rules that govern the sales of these harmful foods at school are limited and have not been updated for nearly 40 years．Until new regulations are written，children who are served healthy meals in the school cafeteria will continue to buy candy drinks and high sodium（钠） snacks elsewhere in school．
Many states'school districts have taken positive steps，but others are likely to resist，especially districts that sell junk food to finance athletic program extracurricular activities，and even copier expenses．
Those districts should take note of a study released in 2009 in West Virginia showing that the budgetary costs of switching from sodas to healthy drinks such as fruit juice，milk，and water were very little．Even if the switch costs money，so be it．The school should not be trading their students'health to buy office supplies．
Over the last five decades，the obesity rates for adolescents have tripled．Unless there is decisive action，weight and inactivity-related disorders will bother a steady larger proportion of the work force and replace smoking as the leading cause of premature death．

32．According to this passage，Bare to blame for the childhood obesity．
   A．weight-related disorders               B．high calorie snacks
C．parents'bad habits                   D．unhealthy lunches and breakfast
33．Which is the main idea of Paragraph 3？B
   A．Federal governments deserve high praise for their school lunch program．
B．New regulations are badly in need of updating．
C．Children should be forbidden to buy snacks in school．
D．Federal rules encourage snacks outside the school program．
34．The passage is concerned mainly withC．
   A．Malnutrition in low-income children
   B．The federal school lunch program
C．obesity at school
   D．the nutritional value of food served at school
35．The tone of this passage isA．
   A．negative         B．indifferent          C．optimistic         D．ironic．

17．-You look so upset，Isabelle．_____？
-I failed to pass the driving test last week．（　　）

4．To say that the child learns by imitation and that the way to teach is to set a good example oversimplifies．No child imitates every action he sees．Sometimes，the example the parent wants him to follow is ignored while he takes over contrary patterns from some other example．Therefore we must turn to a more subtle theory than"Monkey see，monkey do．"
Look at it from the child's point of view．Here he is in a new situation，lacking a ready response．He is seeking a response which will gain certain ends．If he lacks a ready response for the situation，and cannot reason out what to do，he observes a model who seems able to get the right result．The child looks for an authority or expert who can show what to do．?
There is a second element at work in this situation．The child may be able to attain his immediate goal only to find that his method brings criticism from people who observe him．When shouting across the house achieves his immediate end of delivering a message，he is told emphatically that such a racket（叫嚷） is unpleasant，that he should walk into the next room and say his say quietly．Thus，the desire to solve any objective situation is overlaid with the desire to solve it properly．One of the early things the child learns is that he gets more affection and approval when his parents like his response．Then other adults reward some actions and criticize others．If one is to maintain the support of others and his own self-respect，he must adopt responses his social group approves．
In finding trial responses，the learner does not choose models at random．He imitates the person who seems a good person to be like，rather than a person whose social status he wishes to avoid．If the pupil wants to be a good violinist，he will observe and try to copy the techniques of capable players； while some other person may most influence his approach to books．?
Admiration of one quality often leads us to admire a person as a whole，and he becomes an identifying figure．We use some people as models over a wide range of situations，imitating much that they do．We learn that they are dependable and rewarding models because imitating them leads to success．

66．By the last sentence of the first paragraph，the authorC．
A．compares children's behaviors to monkey's
B．tells us that children do not learn by imitation
C．thinks it is partial to regard imitation as"Monkey see，monkey do．"

A．the need to find a way to attain the desired goal
B．the desire to be acknowledged by his social group
C．the desire to find an expert and authority
D．the need to find a way to avoid criticism

A．attain his desired results as soon as possible

1．First，I want to tell you how proud we are．Getting into Columbia is a real testament of what a great wellrounded student you are．Your academic，artistic，and social skills have truly blossomed（展现） in the last few years．You should be as proud of yourself as we are．
College will be the most important years in your life．It is in college that you will truly discover what learning is about．You often question"what good is this course"．I encourage you to be inquisitive，but I also want to tell you："Education is what you have left after all that is taught is forgotten．"What I mean by that is the material taught isn't as important as you gaining the ability to learn a new subject，and the ability to analyze a new problem．That is really what learning in college is about-this will be the period where you go from teachertaught to masterinspired，after which you must become selflearner．

" "． Follow your passion in college．Take courses you think you will enjoy．Don't be trapped in what others think or say．Steve Jobs says when you are in college，your passion will create many dots，and later in your life you will connect them．Enjoy picking your dots，and be assured one day you will find your calling，and connect a beautiful curve through the dots．
Most importantly，make friends and be happy．College friends are often the best in life，because during college you are closer to them physically than to your family．Also，going through independence and adulthood is a natural bonding experience．
