4．On the evening of January 26，1905，Frederick Wells，a manager at the Premier  Diamond Mine in South Africa，was making his daily inspection when he suddenly saw a  reflection on the wall．（36）F He used a knife to get it out and found that it was 10cm  long，6cm high and 5cm thick and weighed about three quarters of a kilo．（37）CHe  was now even more certain that it was worthless，but just in case，he sent it to be  checked．
It's lucky that he did．The stone later became known as the Cullinan Diamond，the  biggest diamond in the world．It was perfectly clear，and twice the size of any other  diamond ever found．The Cullinan was sold to the local government for￡150，000．（38）DThe discoverer himself received a reward of￡3，500．
The important job of cutting the diamond to get full value from it was given to Joseph  Asscher，a famous diamond cutter from Amsterdam in Holland．（39）G On February  10，1908，Joseph Asscher prepared himself for the greatest job of his life．He placed his  special diamond-cutting tool and hit it，but the tool broke．Fortunately，though，the  diamond wasn't damaged．（40）AThis time it was separated perfectly into three large  sections，which were later separated again into mne main diamonds，plus many smaller  ones．The largest piece is called Cullinan I，or the Star of Africa，and is now on display in  the Tower of London．

A．He got a special extra-large tool and tried again．
B．Diamonds needed to be cut in order to reach their full value．
C．This was much bigger than any diamond he had ever heard of．
D．It was later given to King Edward Vll as a 66th birthday present．

1．Autumn blues？Let the sunshine in．
Falling leaves，dead flowers，cold winds，faint sunshine．（71）F Spirits can be low．
People who suffer from"the autumn blues"often are extremely exhausted，lack energy，need more sleep，feel increased appetite and gain weight．
"The exact cause of this condition，often called seasonal depression or seasonal affective disorder （SAD），is not known yet，"says Chen Jue，associate professor at Shanghai Mental Health Center．"But recent studies indicate that weather change is influential and strongly suggest that this condition is caused by changes in the availability of sunlight．"
One theory is that with decreased exposure to sunlight，the biological clock that controls mood，sleep，and hormones is delayed，running more slowly in winter．（72）A．Another theory is that brain chemicals that transmit（传输） information between nerves may be changed in individuals with SAD．It is believed that exposure to light can correct these imbalances．
"（73）C Remember，spring always lives in your heart，"Chen says．
Here are some tips to deal with autumn depression．
•Go outdoors and get some sunlight．Move around．Fresh air and exercise improve the respiratory（呼吸）system and blood circulation and regulate the nervous system．Thus，exercise is calming and relieves one's mood．
•Relax at work．Stretch，breathe deeply．Take a tea break．Think of your next vacation．
•（74）E Chocolate and sugar raise the spirits．
•Look at bright colors，such as red and orange．Color therapy improves mood．
•Listen to your favorite music．You can dance to it，or just lie on a cozy couch，reading a
novel．
•（75）B Blooming plants are cheering．
•Call friends or family when you feel lonely or depressed．Recall some happy memories．

A．Exposure to light may reset the biological clock
B．Decorate your room and work space with flowers．
C．It is a sad season，but you can try to make it happy．
D．That is the way you can use to lighten yourself．
E．Keep a chocolate bar in your pocket．
F．For many people late autumn can be a season of gloom and depression．
G．Autumn always gives us a beautiful scene．

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．
