列篇短文问题四选择项中选出佳答案答题卡相应字母涂黑
Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage
Lately it has become fashionable in America to question whether it is really worth it to go to college According to a new survey released by the Pew Research Center only 40 percent of Americans felt that colleges provided a good value for the cost At the same time86 percent of college graduates still felt the investment was a good one for them
There are a number of reasons for the widespread dissatisfaction with college First there are plenty of problems with higher education—poor quality and outofcontrol costs are two of the biggestSecond it is true that college is not for everyone.There are plenty of rewarding and important careers that do not require college.And due to the slow economythere may in fact be more graduates than the current job market needs.Besidesanticollege sentiment is nothing new· TodayMicrosoft’s Bill Gates or Apple’s Steve Jobs—both college dropoutsis often held up as evidence of why all that time sitting in class is better spent elsewhere.
Howevergetting a college education is still a good idea.College graduates earn moreand are more likely to have a job in the first place.According to the statistics last yearthe average weekly earnings for someone with some college but no degree were712compared to1038 for a college graduate.That is almost17000 over the course of a year and there is an even bigger divide for those with less education.Meanwhilethe unemployment rate was 92 percent for those with only some college and more than 10 percent for those with just a middle school degreebut it was 54 percent for college graduates.The economic gaps between college completers and those with less education are getting larger·
Although most Americans surveyed by Pew feel doubtful about the value of a college degreean overwhelming majority of parents Pew surveyed still expect their children to go to college.It call be inferred that the increased doubt has not significantly influenced decision making’’Pew’s Taylor says.Despite the concern about rising costs and other problemscollege remains a universal desire in this country.
21.Recently many Americans question_____.
A.the value of a college degree
B.the ability of college graduates
C.the quality of college education

D.10%
25.The Pew survey implies that_____.
A.the cost of college education will decrease
B.most Americans still favor college education

D.increased doubt affects parents’decision making
Passage Two
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage·
A major sociological(社会学)theory known as symbolic interactionism(符
号互动)offers some important clarification of how men and women are taught to fill different roles in society.The key concept in symbolic interactionism is that communication makes a big difference in behavior:people act on the basis of messages they receive from othersand how they understand those messages This can be seen in a concept developed by sociologist Charles Horton Cooley known as the lookingglass self.
By the lookingglass selfCooley meant the selfimage that each of us develops according to the messages we receive from otherswe think and behave according to our understanding of those messages.If for examplea young girl is repeatedly told that she is pretty she will come to believe that(1)she is in fact prettyand(2)being pretty is an important thing in her life.Similarlyif she is told that she is not good(or not expected to be good)at certain things(such as math) she will come to believe that she is not good at such things and would better off working at things she can be successful at.The likely product is a young woman who devotes a great deal of attention to her appearanceregards being pretty as a key to success in lifeand who is intimidated by anything involving numbers.
Since we know that young girls are given messages like theseand that young boys are given different messageswe can see a good part of how sex roles are taught.There is little or no evidence of differences in what young girls and young girls and boys can dobut the older children becomethe greater the differences in the areas in which boys and girls are likely to stand out
26.Symbolic interactionism helps to explain______.
A.how to make a difference in people’s social behavior
B.how to make people understand different social roles
C.how men and women learn to communicate in society
D.how men and women learn to take different social roles
27.The lookingglass self'’ concept offers a clue as to______.
A.whether one can improve one’s selfimage
B.whether one is likely to succeed in an area
C.how one receives different social messages
D.how social messages shape one’s selfimage
28.The example of the young girl shows that______.
A.women care more about appearance
B.women are inferior to men in numbers
C.people are liable to social expectations
D.people regard looks as a key to Success
29.The phrase better off’(para2)probably means——
A.more comfortable
B.more dependable
C.more respectable
D.more reasonable
30.Boys and girls are likely to stand out in different areas______.
A.as they advance in age
B.as they grow in wisdom
C.as their interests diversify
D.as their capacities develop
Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
Since the beginning of the Internet erait has been widely accepted that when you join an online companywhatever data you put into it belongs to you.
That means you can sign up for one kind of emailimport your contacts into that systemand if you later decide to switch to some other email serviceyou can export all your contacts from the first service into the new one.You can use Microsoft’s Hotmailthen move to Yahoo Mailthen to Google’s Gmail.Or you can have accounts on three services and keep all your contacts in each one.
That’ the way things were — until Facebook appeared Facebook took a different approach Until recently everything you put into Facebook could not be exported anywhere In effect you didn’t own your data Facebook did
Of course this is rubbish.The reality is that Facebook wants to make it difficultif not impossiblefor you to leave.
Now that policy has sparked a fight between Google and Facebook.Google is angry because its users canand often doexport their Gmail contact information into Facebook.But those people can’t bring Facebook information back into Gmail.
Earlier this month Google declared it would block exports of its data to Facebook.In a shameless moveFacebook broke through Google’s roadblock so its users could keep pulling data from Google.
Google said it was disappointed’’ with Facebook’s behavior.It also created a warning screen to tell Gmail users that if they export their information to Facebook they won’t get it back.
BasicallyFacebook’s position with major IT companies is this:if you want access to all the information we’ve collectedstrike a deal with us.Microsoft and Yahoo have done thatand nowlike magicthey can export Facebook contact information into their systemswhile Google still can’t.
Remember the early days of the Netwhen everything was going to be open and flee That was great until people realized that their user data could be turned into gold.Now there are billions involvedand nobody is playing nice anymore.
31.Before Facebook appearedpeople_______.
A.had a limited number of accounts
B.enjoyed a completely free service
C.had limited access to their contacts
D.enjoyed full ownership of their data
32.It seems that Facebook’s approach makes the writer rather_______.
A.annoyed
B.assured
C.puzzled
D.pleased
33.Google is angry with Facebook due to the latter’s refusal to_______.
A.let its users use Gmail
B.offer technical support
C.share user information
D.protect user information
34.The passage indicates that Microsoft and Yahoo have_______.
A.agreed to side with Google
B.accepted Facebook’s terms
C.taken their own approaches
D.struck a deal with each other
35.According to the writer the current state of the Net is_______.

Time is dangerous.If you don’t control itit will control you.If you don't make it work for youit will work against you.You must become the master of timenot the servant.
Study hard and play hard is an old proverbbut it still makes sense.You have plenty of time for classesstudy and play if you use your time properly.It is not how much time you allocate for study that counts but how much you learn when you do study.
The more time you wastethe easier it is to continue wasting time.Soon doing nothing becomes a habit you can’t break.It becomes a drug.When this happensyou lose your feeling of accomplishment.
