Research shows that the summer before college can be a dangerous time for teenagers, as they are between home and high school on the one side, and a more challenging and independent existence as a college student on the other

Take drinking for exampleResearch has reported that teenagers tend to increase their alcohol use during the summer before college and in their first termSuch drinking can lead to tragedy: it’s estimated that more than 1,100 college students at 18 to 24 years of age die each year from alcohol-related injuries, including car crashes, and almost 600, 000 are injured under the influence of alcohol.

In addition to drinking, future freshmen may also have gaps in their knowledge about other aspects of university lifeA study has found that students are “generally aware” of the fact that they have to place them into college courses and their school’s curricular requirementsIn addition, many students hold misunderstandings such as “Getting into college is the hardest part”, and “I can take whatever classes I want when I get to college”In fact, students’ courses may be determined by their level of preparation

It is found that college-bound high-school graduates are faced with a number of potentially frightening tasks during the summerFor example, colleges typically require students to take placement tests(分班考试)and fill out a lot of paperwork, including housing and medical forms, over the summerCompleting these tasks may be especially frightening for low-income and first-generation college-bound students whose families may be short of experience with the college-going process

In addition, it’s only in the summer after high-school graduation when students face the reality of paying the first college bill, which often includes unexpected costs like required health insuranceFor college-intending students, successfully controlling the post-high-school summer thus requires a level of finance that may be unrelated to their ability to succeed in the classroomAs a result, students who have already broken through many barriers to college admission may fail to enter college

Paring college-bound students with “fellow advisers”---students already in college who have been trained to support and coach their learners through the summer---improves the rate at which the learners show up at collegeEven more wonderful, a low-cost campaign of text messages---in which researchers sent recent high-school graduates and their parents a series of eight to ten text-message reminders of key tasks to complete over the summer---is just as effective in increasing the rate of students who successfully make the change to college

A little “summer pushing” could be a key step in getting students all the way across the finish line

【题目】At the beginning of the World Series of 1947I experienced a completely new emotionwhen the National Anthem was playedThis timeI thoughtit is being played for meas much as for anyone elseThis is organized major league baseballand I am standing here with all the othersand everything that takes place includes me.

About a year laterI went to AtlantaGeorgiato play in an exhibition gameOn the fieldfor the first time in Atlantathere were Negroes and whitesOther Negroesbesides meAnd I thought: What I have always believed has come to be.

And what is it that I have always believedFirstthat imperfections are humanBut that wherever human beings were given room to breathe and time to thinkthose imperfections would disappearno matter how slowlyI do not believe that we have found or even approached perfectionThat is not necessarily in the scheme of human eventsHandicapsstumbling blocksprejudices — all of these are imperfectYetthey have to be dealt with because they are in the scheme of human events.

Whatever obstacles I found made me fight all the harderBut it would have been impossible for me to fight at allexcept that I was sustained by the personal and deep-rooted belief that my fight had a chanceIt had a chance because it took place in a free societyNot once was I forced to face and fight an immovable objectNot once was the situation so cast-iron rigid that I had no chance at allFree minds and human hearts were at work all around meand so there was the probability of improvementI look at my children nowand know that I must still prepare them to meet obstacles and prejudices.

But I can tell themtoothat they will never face some of these prejudices because other people have gone before themAnd to myself I can say thatbecause progress is unalterablemany of today's dogmas (教条)will havevanishedby the time they grow into adultsI can say to my children: There is a chance for youNo guaranteebut a chanceAnd this chance has come to bebecause there is nothing static with free peopleThere is no Middle Ages logic so strong that it can stop the human tide from flowing forwardI do not believe that every personin every walk of lifecan succeed in spite of any handicapThat would be perfectionBut I do believe — and with every fiber in me — that what I was able to attain came to be because we put behind us no matter how slowlythe dogmas of the past: to discover the truth of todayand perhaps find the greatness of tomorrow.

I believe in the human raceI believe in the warm heartI believe in man's honestyI believe in the goodness of a free societyAnd I believe that the society can remain good only as long as we are willing to fight for it — and to fight against whatever imperfections may existMy fight was against the barriers that kept Negroes out of baseballThis was the area where I found imperfectionand where I was best able to fightAnd I fought because I knew it was not doomed to be a losing fightIt couldn't be a losing fight-not when it took place in a free societyAnd in the largest senseI believe that what I did was done for me — that it was my faith in God that sustained me in my fightAnd that what was done for me must and will be done for others.

【题目】Chimpanzees, long considered reluctant to share, apparently can display selfless tendencies, revealing one more key way our closest living relatives are like humans, scientists findThese findings could shed light on the evolution ofaltruismin humans

Previously, a belief was widely held that human altruism evolved only after humans split from their ape cousins about 6 million years agoIn recent years, however, research has revealed just how much chimpanzees have in common with usThey can hunt with spears, play with dolls and mourn their partners’ death.

"Most of the earlier studies had presented the apes with a complex implement that helped them deliver food to themselves or others, often so complicated that the experiments tested tool skills rather than social tendencies," De Waal told Live Science"Ours is the first study that uses no such implement at all."

In addition to using complex food-delivery systems, past experiments often placed the chimpanzees so far apart that they might not have realized how their actions benefited othersIn these new, simplified experiments, two apes were housed next to each other with a screen through which they could see each otherThen, one chimpanzee had to choose between two differently colored tokens (币) from a bin, one of which represented a pro-social (亲社会的) option, the other a selfish optionThe pro-social option would cause both chimpanzees to receive a piece of banana wrapped in paperThe selfish option only rewarded the ape who made the choice.

In a study with seven adult female chimps placed into various pairs, the scientists found all the apes showed a definite preference for the pro-social option"For me, the most important finding is that like us, chimpanzees take into account the needs and wishes of others," researcher Victoria Horner, said.

The chimpanzees behaved especially altruistically toward partners who either patiently waited or gently reminded them that they were there by drawing attention to themselvesThey were less likely to reward partners who pressured through making a fuss, begging persistently or spitting water at themThis is opposite to a long-standing view that the chimpanzees only share food under pressure.

1The word " altruism" paragraph 1is closest in meaning to ______.

A. selfishness B. selflessness

C. willingness D. reluctance

2Recent researches are performed with less complicated implements mainly to ______.

A. show that chimps are only good at using implements

B. see whether chimps are willing to share food with others

C. find out if chimps are likely to reward partners

D. test chimps’ social tendencies instead of tool skills

3Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A. Evolution History of Altruism in Humans

B. Similarities between Chimps and Mankind

C. Chimps Do Show Selfless Behavior

D. Chimps Only Share Food under Pressure
