Wrong Reasons for Going to College

Perhaps you come from a family where everyone goes to college. Or maybe, you’re the kid that everyone is proud to believe will be the first to get there. ___2._____. It’s become so much a part of the air you breathe that you’ve never stopped to consider whether you want to go or whether you’re ready to go.

◆____4._____

It’s been tough to find even a summer job. You don’t have an alternative plan. Everyone else is doing it (see above). You think you might as well go to school. That is the lamest of reasons to spend $20,000 or more in the next year.

The pounding（重击声） was driving Edward crazy. A new neighbor had just moved into the apartment below him. The newcomer was deaf, or seemed to be, because he played his stereo loud enough for the whole building to hear.

On the first day he heard the stereo rocking over, Edward marched downstairs and politely told the newcomer that his stereo was too loud. He asked the new tenant to turn the volume down and keep it down as long as he lived in the building. The tenant appeared surprised and embarrassed, and said, “Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t realize it was that loud.”

So, Edward returned upstairs, feeling good, because he had taken a stand and politely let the newcomer know that loud music was not going to be tolerated. The next day all was quiet, and Edward continued to be pleased with himself. The following day, Edward thought it must be Fourth of July, because a marching band was playing on his street. In fact, it was the new neighbor who was playing his music loud again.

Edward was not one to repeat himself, feeling that each time you repeated yourself, you diminished the value of your words. So, he did what he always did with rude neighbors－grin and bear it. Eventually, they would move away. What else are you going to do?

In Los Angles a year ago, a woman had complained to her upstairs neighbor that he was playing his drums too loud and too often. The drummer repeatedly ignored her. One day the woman walked upstairs and shot the drummer in the head and his girlfriend in the chest. The woman was sentenced to prison for 20 years.

The dead drummer won’t bother anyone with his drums, but the woman might be wishing now that she had learned to grin and bear it. If she were still living in her apartment, she could always move. When you’re in prison, you don’t have that option.

1.The man living below where Edward lived was .

A.a deaf man B.the owner of the house

C.a tenant D.an old neighbor

2.What did Edward always do with rude neighbors?

A.Grinning and bearing it.

B.Persuading them to stop repeatedly.

C.Shouting them to dead.

D.Moving away from the rude neighbors.

3.The woman killed her neighbor because .

A.he ignored her advice repeatedly

B.she could not stand his playing the guitar too loud

C.she could not put up with him any longer

D.he played the drums too often

4.The author writes the last paragraph to prove that .

A.being in prison means the loss of freedom

B.grinning and bearing it is the best policy

C.Edward should follow the example of the woman

D.the woman was right to kill her neighbor

Write ONE WORD for each blank on the Answer Sheet.

Science and engineering have varied meanings and different ways in which they can be understood, though the differences are not easy to tell.

First is science. This is nothing but the use of reasoning to know how things work and what causes the happenings.

Engineering is about the way some tools, machines, systems etc are made with the help of human resources, raw materials and some scientific techniques. Science is important for engineering. Engineering can’t be done without knowing the basic principles of the working of the device that one wants to make. For example, if one wants to make a fan and they do not know how a fan works, then it is practically impossible for them to do so. Thus knowing how the fan works is science and making a fan is engineering.

Then comes the most important factor, the technology. Technology is always evolving with the help of the existing science and engineering techniques. It has to satisfy the usage of it by the consumers and safety of the people. For example, science will tell people the rules or the working of the equipment, engineering techniques will tell them how the equipment is made and the technology will consider both the above factors to create the same equipment but in a different way or using a different technique with some alterations(改变) giving birth to newfound technology. Thus again, science and engineering are important for technology to take place and the people who undertake the activities of science and technology are considered technologists.

All these three above discussed factors are important when one undertakes some kind of research work.

Some people think that technology is nothing but the way science is applied. If they make good investment in the field of science, then they would gain a lot from new technology. Thus, people start investing in many new ventures(项目)。

So we can see clear differences between science, technology and engineering. New technology is the best way to take a country to a higher economic position and to the path of fast growth. Technology requires the use of science and engineering as this is the best way to start and put the use of them into practice.

What shall we use for power when all the oil in the world has ________？

A. given out B. put out C. held up D. used up

There is nowadays in schools a great movement that places major emphasis on higher order skills, these being those skills that encourage the ability to reason. This group of skills involves recalling information, basic concept formation, critical thinking, and creative idea formation. Formerly viewed as the tools of mathematics, these skills are now recognized as necessary to abilities across the curriculum.

Higher order thinking skills are now recognized as important for those who will enter the twenty-first century work force. Preparing young learners for their future requires that teachers employ a great deal of inventiveness and creativity in designing lessons that meet the dual challenge of providing the basics as in reading, language arts, and mathematics, and developing the ability to reason.

This unit uses detective fiction to address both of these challenges, and the activities that lie here are designed to draw the learner along a path that moves him from the simple skills, such as recalling information, to the more difficult area of creative thinking. Activities may be modified, simplified, lengthened, or deleted to meet the needs of the intellectual diversity found in most classrooms.

For this unit I have chosen three separate series of children’s detective fiction. The easiest to read are the Private Eyes club mysteries, written and illustrated by Crosby Bonsall. This series centers on the activities of four neighborhood boys who along with their cat Mildred keep the area they live in free of crime. Each title is centered on one issue and the list of titles is expanding. The reading levels range from about 1.6 to 2.0 and the print is large and well organized on the page. Snitch, Wizard, Skinny, and Tubby are funny and engaging, and are represented in lively color illustrations. The only issue that could be a problem is that the private eyes are all boys. However, girls are well represented among the peripheral (次要的) peer group.

1.What can we know from the above passage?

A. Children have different abilities.

B. Reading for information needs more skills.

C. Reasoning is higher than reading and writing in school.

D. Mathematics is the most difficult in school.

2.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage?

A. Basic reading skills.

B. Ways of thinking.

C. Who wrote the detective fiction.

D. How much to pay for the course.

3.What is the chosen series of fiction mainly about?

A. How some brave boys find their cats.

B. How some brave children help find the lost cat.

C. How people help the boys solve the crime.

D. How some brave boys fight against crime.

4.What will mostly likely be presented after this passage?

A. The Private Eyes club mysteries.

B. Other ways to interest the readers.

C. How girls can keep on reading the stories.

D. Where to buy these interesting stories.

Why are so many people afraid to fail? Quite simply because we forget that failure is part of the human life and that every person has the right to fail. Every person is able to fight failure and finally succeed.

Most parents work hard at preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed. One way is to lower standards(标准). When a child finishes making a table, the mother describes it as “perfect” even though it doesn’t stand still. Another way is to blame others. If John fails in science, his teacher is unfair or stupid.

There’s a problem with the two ways. It makes a child unprepared for life in the real world. Young children need to learn that no one can be best at everything, no one can win all the time, and that it’s possible to enjoy a game even when you don’t win. A child often feels terrible, of course, when he is not invited to a birthday party, or is not chosen into a football team. But parents should not say “It doesn’t matter.” quickly. The young should be allowed to experience failure and be helped to come out of it.

Failure never gives people pleasure. It hurts both adults and children. But it can be really good to your life when you learn to use it. You must learn to ask “Why did I fail?” Don’t blame anyone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong and how you can improve. If someone else can help, don’t be shy about asking them. Success just repeats what has been done. It is not as good a teacher as failure. You can learn how to give a good party from an unsuccessful one.

1.How do most parents prevent their children from failure?

A. They give them some presents.

B. They don’t tell them that they have failed.

C. They don’t blame others.

D. They help them to come out of failure.

2.Which of the following does a person need to learn when he fails?

A. It’s impossible to enjoy a game if he misses it.

B. He is the worst of all.

C. It’s natural not to win a game and no one can win all the time.

D. His teammates are not good enough.

3.Which would be the best title for the passage?

A. Learning from Failure

B. Ways of Preventing Failure

C. Reasons of Failure

D. Getting Pleasure from Failure
