Diana Jacobs thought her family had a workable plan to pay for college for her 21-year-old twin sons：a combination of savings，income，scholarships，and a modest amount of borrowing.Then her husband lost his job，and the plan fell apart. " I have two kids in college，and I want to say‘come home'，but at the same time I want to provide them with a good education， "says Jacobs. The Jacobs family did work out a solution：They asked and received more aid from the schools，and each son increased his borrowing to the largest amount through the federal loan（its） program.They will each graduate with S 20，000 of debt，but at least they will be able to finishschool. With unemployment rising，financial aid administrators（财政补助管理者） expect to hear more families like the Jacobs.More students are asking for aid，and more families expect to need student loans，College administrators are concerned that they will not have enough aid money to go around. At the same time，tuition（= 4 t） continues to rise.A report from the National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education found that college tuition and fees increased 439% from 1982 to 2007，while average family income rose just 147%.Student borrowing has more than doubled in the Last ten years. "If we go on this way for another 25 years，we won′t have an affordable system of higher education， " says Patrick M.Callan，president of the center. "The middle-class families have been financing it through debt.They will send kids to college whatever it takes，even if that means a huge amount of debt." Financial aid administrators have been having a hard time as many companies decide that student loans are not profitable enough and have stopped making them.The good news，however，is that federal loans account for about three quarters of student borrowing，and the government says that money will flow uninterrupted （未受干扰的）.（1）According to Paragraph 1，why did the plan of Jacobs family fail？ ____ A.The twins wasted too much money.B.The father was out of work.C.Their saving ran out.D.The family fell apart.（2）How did the Jacobs manage to solve their problem？ ____ A.They asked their kids to come home.B.They borrowed ＄ 20，000 from the school.C.They encouraged their twin sons to do part-time jobsD.They got help from the school and the federal government（3）Financial aid administrators believe that ____ .A.more families will face the same problem as the JacobsesB.the government will receive more letters of complaintC.college tuition fees will double soonD.America′s unemployment will fall（4）What can we learn about the middle-class families from the text？ ____ A.They blamed the government for the tuition increase.B.Their income remained steady in the last ten years.C.They will try their best to send kids to collage.D.Their debts will be paid off within 25 years.（5）According to the last paragraph，the government Will ____ .A.provide most students with scholarshipsB.dismiss some financial aid administratorsC.stop the companies from making student loansD.go on providing financial support for college students
Passage 2A little break can go a long way.A new Baylor University study, published in the Journal of Applied Psychology, has found that frequent shorter breaks throughout the workday can help employees recharge and reduce their work exhaustion."Unlike your cell phone, which popular wisdom tells us should be depleted (耗尽) to zero percent before you charge it fully to 100%, people instead need to charge more frequently throughout the day," said Baylor University professor and researcher Emily Hunter, PhD.Hunter and fellow Baylor University researcher Cindy Wu, PhD., surveyed 95 employees (aged 22-67) for their study, "Give Me a Better Break: Choosing Workday Break Activities to Maximize Resource Recovery." Their mission was to figure out how employees could take the "best types of breaks." The 95 employees documented each break they took during the course of a typical five-day workweek. These breaks included lunch and coffee breaks, checking personal emails and socializing with other workers. Bathroom breaks were not included in the survey. This added up to a collection of 959 surveys, with an average of two breaks a day per person.A mid-morning break was more beneficial to workers than an hour lunch break or mid-afternoon break because it boosted motivation, energy and concentration before the midday lull (间歇) sets in.Taking breaks that are satisfying, can also reduce the presence of headaches, eyestrain and lower back pain upon returning to work, according to the study.Not unsurprisingly, the researchers also found that "better breaks" consisted of employees engaging in the activities of their choice — even if it was work-related. "Finding something on your break that you prefer to do — something that is not given to you or assigned to you — are the kinds of activities that are going to make your breaks much more restful, provide better recovery and help you come back to work stronger," Hunter said.(1) (单选题)What is the main idea of the passage?A.Frequent short workday breaks can help employees restore strength.B.Mid-morning break is more beneficial to workers than other breaks.C.Work-related breaks are better than random breaks.D.People need to recharge many times during workdays.(2) (单选题)The term "go a long way" in Para. 1 can be best replaced by ________.A.go very farB.be very helpfulC.make you very successfulD.stand in your way(3) (单选题)What is the purpose of the survey made by Emily Hunter and Cindy Wu?A.To find out why frequent short breaks can help employees recharge.B.To find out the benefits of taking frequent short breaks.C.To find out how many breaks employees can take on average.D.To find out in what way employees take the breaks.(4) (单选题)Why is a mid-morning break more beneficial to workers than a mid-afternoon break?A.Because it helps people get concentrated when they get distracted.B.ecause it makes people feel energetic when they are tired.C.Because it makes people feel vigorous before the midday lull sets in.D.Because it boosts motivation before people get sleepy.(5) (单选题)According to the passage, how to make employees' breaks more effective?A.Take breaks with assigned or given works.B.Take more short breaks in the afternoon.C.Think work-related things during breaks.D.Take part in activities you like during breaks.A. doesn’t lookB. don’t lookC. not lookD. don’tlooking

({B)} Media Selection for Advertisements({/B)} After determining the target audience for a product or service, advertising agencies must select the appropriate media for the advertisement. We discuss here the major types of media used in advertising. We focus our attention on seven types of advertising: television, newspapers, radio, magazines, out-of-home, Internet, and direct mail.({B)} Television({/B)} Television is an attractive medium for advertising because it delivers mass audiences to advertisers. When you consider that nearly three out of four Americans have seen the game show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire you can understand the power of television to communicate with a large audience. When advertisers create a brand, for example, they want to impress consumers with the brand and its image. Television provides an ideal vehicle for this type of communication. But television is an expensive medium, and not all advertisers can afford to use it. Television’s influence on advertising is fourfold. First, narrowcasting means that television channels are seen by an increasingly narrow segment of the audience. The Golf Channel, for instance, is watched by people who play golf. Home and Garden Television is seen’ by those interested in household improvement projects. Thus, audiences are smaller and more homogeneous (具有共同特点的) than they have been in the past. Second, there is an increase in the number of television channels available to viewers, and thus, advertisers. This has also resulted in an increase in the sheer number of advertisements to which audiences are exposed. Third, digital recording devices allow audience members more control over which commercials they watch. Fourth, control over programming is being passed from the networks to local cable operators and satellite programmers.({B)} Newspapers({/B)} After television, the medium attracting the next largest annual ad revenue is newspapers. The New York Times, which reaches a national audience, accounts for 1 billion in ad revenue annually. It has increased its national circulation (发行量) by 40% and is now available for home delivery in 168 dries. Locally, newspapers are the largest advertising medium. Newspapers are a less expensive advertising medium than television and provide a way for advertisers to communicate a longer, more detailed message to their audience than they can through television. Given new production techniques, advertisements can be printed in newspapers in about 48 hours, meaning newspapers are also a quick way of getting the massage out. Newspapers are often the most important form of news for a local community, and they develop a high degree of loyalty from local readers.({B)} Radio({/B)} Advertising on radio continues to grow. Radio is often used in conjunction with outdoor billboards (广告牌)and the Internet to reach even more customers than television. Advertisers are likely to use radio because it is a less expensive medium than television, which means advertisers can afford to repeat their ads often~ Internet companies are also turning to radio advertising. Radio provides a way for advertisers to communicate with audience members at all times of the day. Consumers listen to radio on their way to school or work, at work, on the way home, and in the evening hours. Two major changes ― satellite and Internet radio ― will force radio advertisers to adapt their methods. Both of these radio forms allow listeners to tune in stations that are more distant than the local stations they could receive in the past. As a result, radio will increasingly attract target audiences who live many miles apart.({B)} Magazines({/B)} Newsweeklies, women’s rifles, and business magazines have all seen increases in advertising because they attract the high-end market. Magazines are popular with advertisers because of the narrow market that they deliver. A broadcast medium such as network television attracts all types of audience members, but magazine audiences are more homogeneous. If you read Sports Illustrated, for example, you have much in common with the magazine’s other readers. Advertisers see magazines as an efficient way of reaching target audience members. Advertisers using the print media ― magazines and newspapers ― will need to adapt to two main changes. First, the Internet will bring larger audiences to local newspapers. These audiences will be more diverse and geographically dispersed(分散) than in the past. Second, advertisers will have to understand how to use an increasing number of magazines for their target audiences. Although some magazines will maintain national audiences, a large number of magazines will entertain narrower audiences.({B)} Out-of-home advertising({/B)} Out-of-home advertising, also called place-based advertising, has become an increasingly effective way of reaching consumers, who are more active than ever before. Many consumers today do not sit at home and watch television. Using billboards, newsstands, and bus shelters for advertising is an effective way of reaching these on-the-go consumers. More consumers travel longer distances to and from work, which also makes out-of-home advertising effective. Technology has changed the nature of the billboard business, making it a more effective medium than in the past. Using digital printing, billboard companies can print a billboard in 2 hours, compared with 6 days previously. This allows advertisers more variety in the types of messages they create because they can change their messages more quickly.({B)} Internet({/B)} As consumers become more comfortable with online shopping, advertisers will seek to reach this market. As consumers get more of their news and information from the Internet, the ability of television and radio to get the word out to consumers will decrease. The challenge to Internet advertisers is to create ads that audience members remember. Internet advertising will play a more prominent role in organizations’ advertising in the near future. Internet audiences tend to be quite homogeneous, but small. Advertisers will have to adjust their methods to reach these audiences and will have to adapt their persuasive strategies to the online medium as well.({B)} Direct mail({/B)} A final advertising medium is direct mail, which uses mailings to consumers to communicate a client’s message. Direct mail includes newsletters, postcards, and special promotions. Direct mail is an effective way to build relationships with consumers. For many businesses, direct mail is the most effective form of advertising.With the increase in the number of TV channels,______. A．the cost of TV advertising has decreasedB．the number of TV viewers has increasedC．advertisers’ interest in other media has decreasedD．the number of TV ads people can see has increased

Is Your Life Worth 30 Minutes a Day Don’’t be afraid of the E word ― it could mean your survival. People who aren’’t engaging in regular exercise can reap significant health benefits if they accumulate 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity most days of the week. What can help prevent stroke (中风), heart disease and some cancer What can lift depression, ease arthritis (关节炎) pain and increase both the length and quality of life ― to name just a few of its benefits "If packed into a pill," sums up Dr. Robert Butler, former director of the National Institute on Aging, "it would be the single most widely prescribed (写处方) and beneficial medicine in the nation. "Best of all, it is free and available to everyone." Exercise Can Help People Stay Healthy Give up The answer is the E word: exercise. But you don’’t have to change into gym shorts or, heaven forbid, sweat for an hour. Instead, the U.S. Surgeon General’’s report Physical Activity and Health offers this simple exercise prescription: people who aren’’t engaging in regular exercise can reap significant health benefits if they accumulate 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity most days of the week. Americans Expend Much Less Energy and Time on Exercise Americans today expend much less energy than did previous generations, perhaps as much as a few hundred calories per day less. All the "advances" that make our lives easier ― like e-commerce (电子商务) , and automatic doors ― contribute to the current epidemic (流行病) of obesity (肥胖) and related disease. Experts say that if you expend just ten extra calories a day by being more active, over a year you can lose a pound ― mostly fat. And if you burn 150 extra calories a day ― the equivalent of a 30-minutes’’ walk ― in a year that’’s ten pounds. (If you also eat 150 calories less ― that’’s about half a candy bar ― you could lose an additional ten pounds.)The sad fact is that only about 15 percent of American adults engage regularly in vigorous physical activity for at least 20 minutes three times a week. More than 60 percent are not regularly physically active, and 25 percent are totally sedentary (久坐的). The Benefit of Moderate Exercise Yet the benefits of moderate exercise are amazing. Consider how exercise helps the following: diabetes (糖尿病) . The number of Americans diagnosed with diabetes has increased six fold since 1958, to a record high of ten million. This alarming rise is linked to our expanding waistlines, junk food diet and inactivity. Some experts feel that the most common form of diabetes is preventable with a proper diet ― and regular activity. In diabetics, the hormone insulin (荷尔蒙胰岛素) does not properly regulate glucose (葡萄糖) levels in the blood. When people exercise, the body fuels the activity by taking glucose out of their blood to use for energy. Exercise Can Help Patients Suffering from the Following Diseases Heart Attacks and Stroke. One of the simplest, safest, least expensive and most effective strategies for improving heart health is frequently neglected: exercise. It reduces blood pressure and can help raise the level of "good" cholesterol (胆固醇) , while lowering "bad" cholesterol when combined with dietary changes. Remember: for every one percent reduction in blood cholesterol, the occurrence of coronary (冠状动脉的) heart disease is reduced by two percent. Moreover, people who exercise one hour per day cut their risk for stroke nearly in half, according to a study of 11,130 Harvard University alumni (男女校友). Mental Health. When asked why she started swimming during her freshman year at Boston University, world-class endurance swimmer Julie Ridge replied, "It was a mental thing." While sedentary people may assume that working out is about looking good, habitual exercisers like Ridge know that it is largely about feeling good. A growing body of research shows that physical activity does, indeed, exert a "feel good" effect that can work as a powerful treatment for depression. Arthritis. Many people ― including some physicians ― still haven’’t heard the new message that exercise can help people with arthritis now affecting nearly 43 million Americans. "We’’ve come from thinking that physical fitness was impossible for people with arthritis to know that exercise is one of the best ways to manage their disease and minimize their disability," says Marian Minor, an associate professor of Physical therapy at the University of Missouri, Columbia. Exercise can reduce pain by keeping joints (关节) flexible and the muscles around the joints strong. A person with arthritis who has other medical conditions or a lot of pain should get a physician’’s referral (建议) to a physical therapist who can design an individualized exercise program. Cancer. Each year over a million Americans learn they have cancer ― the second leading cause of death in the Unites States after heart disease. In 1996 the American Cancer Society added regular physical activity to the list of preventive measures it advocates. According to one large study of people at various levels of fitness, the least fit men died from cancer at a rate more than three times higher than that of the most fit men. And, notes Informed Decisions, the American Cancer Society’’s guide to the disease, an earlier study found "the least fit women had fully 16 times the cancer death rate of the most fit women." Scientists still don’’t know the precise mechanisms by which exercise appears to exert an "anticancer" effect, but current thinking points to physical activity’’s effect on the immune and endocrine (内分泌的) system. So Choose to Move. Stop viewing exercise as a "workout" and start thinking of it as play ― a welcome daily recess (暂歇) that frees your body from the confines of its workaday routines. And if you have any health concerns, you should, of course, consult a physician first.In a way, some modern conveniences result in people’’s obesity and related diseases. A．YB．NC．NG
Pollution: A Life and Death Issue One of the main themes of planet under pressure is the way many of the Earth’s environmental crises reinforce one another. Pollution is an obvious example―we do not have the option of growing food, or finding enough water, on a squeaky-clean planet, but on one increasingly tarnished and trashed by the way we have used it so far. Cutting waste and clearing up pollution cost money. Yet time and again it is the quest for wealth that generates much of the mess in the first place. Living in a way that is less damaging to the Earth is not easy, but it is vital, because pollution is pervasive and often life-threatening. Air: the World Health Organization (WHO) says three million people are killed worldwide by outdoor air pollution annually from vehicles and industrial emissions, and 1.6 million indoors through using solid fuel. Most are in poor countries. Water: diseases carried in water are responsible for 80% of illnesses and deaths in developing countries, killing a child every eight seconds. Each year 2.1 million people die from diarrhoeal(痢疾的) diseases associated with poor water. Soil: contaminated land is a problem in industrialized countries, where former factories and power stations can leave waste like heavy metals in the soil. It can also occur in developing countries, sometimes used for dumping pesticides. Agriculture can pollute land with pesticides, nitrate-rich fertilizers and slurry from livestock. And when the contamination reaches rivers it damages life there, and can even create dead zones off the coast, as in the Gulf of Mexico.Chronic Problem Chemicals are a frequent pollutant. When we think of chemical contamination it is often images of events like Bhopal that come to mind. But the problem is widespread. One study says 7%―20% of cancers are attributable to poor air and pollution in homes and workplaces. The WHO, concerned about chemicals that persist and build up in the body, especially in the young, says we may "be conducting a large-scale experiment with children’s health". Some man-made chemicals, endocrine(内分泌) disruptors like phthalates(酞酸盐) and nonylphenol―a breakdown product of spermicides(杀精子剂), cosmetics and detergents are blamed for causing changes in the genitals of some animals. Affected species include polar bears―so not even the Arctic is immune. And the chemicals climb the food chain, from fish to mammals, and to us. About 70000 chemicals are on the market, with around 1 500 new ones appearing annually. At least 30000 are thought never to have been comprehensively tested for their possible risks to people. At first glance, the plastic buckets stacked in the comer of the environmental NGO office look like any others. But the containers are an unlikely weapon in one poor community’s fight against oil companies which they say are responsible for widespread ill-health caused by years of pollution. The vessels are used by a network of local volunteers, known as the Bucket Brigade, to gather air samples in neighborhoods bordering oil refineries, as part of a campaign to monitor and document air pollution which they believe is coming from the plants. In South Africa, as in many developing and newly industrialized countries, legislation on air pollution has failed to keep pace with mushrooming industries. So local residents, like many in poor communities around the globe, have faced the problem of investigating their claim that industries on their doorsteps are making them sick.Trade-off But the snag is that modem society demands many of them, and some are essential for survival. So while we invoke the precautionary principle, which always recommends erring on the side of caution, we have to recognize there will be trade-offs to be made. The pesticide DDT does great damage to wildlife and can affect the human nervous system, but can also be effective against malaria(疟疾). Where does the priority lie The industrialized world has not yet cleaned up the mess it created, but it is reaping the benefits of the pollution it has caused. It can hardly tell the developing countries that they have no right to follow suit. Another complication in tackling pollution is that it does not respect political frontiers. There is a U.N. convention on trans-boundary air pollution, but that cannot cover every problem that can arise between neighbors, or between states which do not share a border. Perhaps the best example is climate change―the countries of the world share one atmosphere, and what one does can affect everyone.For One and All One of the principles that are supposed to apply here is simple―the polluter pays. Sometimes it is obvious who is to blame and who must pay the price, but it is not always straightforward to work out just who is the polluter, or whether the rest of us would be happy to pay the price of stopping the pollution. One way of cleaning up after ourselves would be to throw less away, designing products to be recycled or even just to last longer. Previous generations worked on the assumption that discarding our waste was a proper way to get rid of it, so we used to dump nuclear materials and other potential hazards at sea, confident they would be dispersed in the depths. We now think that is too risky because, as one author wrote, "there’s no such place as ’ away’, and there’s no such person as the ’other’. "Irritating Air Despite recent improvements, however, the health problems are still there. A 2002 medical study, carried out by Durban’s Nelson Mandela School of Medicine and a U. S. university, found that an abnormally high 52% of students and teachers at a primary school bordering the Engen plant suffered from asthma (哮喘). It found that increases in air pollution tended to aggravate asthma symptoms in children. The petrol producers do not dispute the findings but argue that researchers were unable to establish a causal link between air pollution and the high prevalence of asthma among the school population. For the community, the next step is to take legal action. But, according to internationally recognized environmentalist Bobby Peek, targeting the companies would be difficult as it would be near-impossible to prove that illnesses suffered were caused by pollution coming from a particular plant. Mr. Peek, who grew up beneath Engen’s stacks, says the activists are now considering taking action against the authorities. "We are now looking at suing the government on constitutional grounds, for failing to ensure our right to protection from a harmful environment as stipulated in the constitution, " he said.Legislative Change A new batch(批) of environmental laws, the National Air Quality Management Act, has just been passed by the South African parliament to replace outdated 1965 legislation with tighter controls and tougher sanctions. Martinus van Schalkwyk, the minister of environmental affairs and tourism, visited the south Durban basin earlier this year and said there were measures in place to improve the situation. "I share the anger and frustration of this community. It is long overdue, " he told the South African Broadcasting Corporation. The local authorities have also established a "Multi-Point Plan" for the area. They say it is a powerful model for tackling pollution and points to a 40% reduction in sulphur dioxide emissions in recent years.There is a U. N. convention that can cover ______. A. problems between neighbors B. problems between states which do not share a borderC. problems on air pollution D. trans-boundary air pollution
3. Public transportation systems must prioritize ___ to ensure all passengers, including those with physical disabilities, can use them conveniently.A. accessibilityB. speedC. popularityD. reliability

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.

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. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. 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.
