If you feel defeated by your college experiences, you are not alone—many of today's college students are suffering from a form of shock. Lisa is a good example of a student in shock. She is an attractive, intelligent twenty-year-old college junior at a state university. She was a straight-A student in high school and a member of the basketball and softball teams there. Now, only three years later, Lisa is miserable. She has changed her major four times and is forced to hold down two part-time jobs in order to pay her tuition (学费). She suffers from sleeping and eating disorders and has no close friends. Sometimes she bursts out crying for no apparent reason. What is happening to Lisa happens to millions of college students each year. As a result, about one-quarter of the student population at any time will suffer from symptoms of depression. Of that group, almost half will experience depression intense enough to call for professional help. But many reject that idea, because they don't want people to think there's something wrong with them. There are three reasons why today's college students are suffering more than in earlier generations. Today, with high divorce rate and many parents experiencing their own psychological difficulties, the traditional family is not always available for guidance and support. Another problem is financial pressure. In the last decade, tuition costs have soared. At the same time there has been a reduction in federal aid to students. College loans are now much harder to obtain. Consequently, most students must work at least part-time. A final cause of student shock is the large selection of majors available. Because of the magnitude (重要性) and difficulty of choosing a major, college can prove a time of great indecision (优柔寡断). Many students switch majors. As a result, it is becoming common to take five or six years to get a degree. It can be depressing to students to be faced with the added tuition costs. While there is no magic cure-all for student shock, colleges have begun to research into the psychological problems of students, and promote their psychological counseling centers to handle the greater demand for services. In addition, stress-management workshops have become common on college campuses. Instructors teach students various techniques for handling stress.1. What is the main idea of the passage?A) Going to college turns out to be an unhappy experience for many students.B) Shock in college life is quite common and students need to learn to overcome it.C) Students should consider the pressure in college carefully before entering.D) Stress-related problems are increasing on college campuses and schools have responded. 2. What problems actually does Lisa have?A) She is no longer a top student in college.B) She is puzzled about which major to choose.C) She may suffer from some mental problems. D) She got frightened for some unknown disease.3. According to the passage, how many students are suffering from depression at any time?A) 66%.B) 50%.C) 25%. D) 12.5%.4. The author seems to imply that some students who have serious depression ________.A) should drop out of collegeB) don't want to get professional help C) can always handle it on their ownD) can't focus on their studies5. What can be concluded from the passage about the author's suggestion on the solution to student shock?A) Students should find more time to communicate with their family members.B) Students should spend more time on studies rather than part-time jobs.C) Colleges should offer more financial help to students so that they don't need to worry about money.D) Colleges should provide more mental support so that students can handle pressure better.

question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty

The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding.

The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.
