33、dentity. However, now they are becoming an extended period of adolescence, during which many of todays students are not shouldered with adult responsibilities.For previous generations, college was a decisive break from parental control; guidance and support needed help from people of the same age an

34、d from within. In the past two decades, however, continued connection with and dependence on family, thanks to cell phones, email and social media, have increased significantly. Some parents go so far as to help with coursework. Instead of promoting the idea of college as a passage from the shelter

35、of the family to autonomy and adult responsibility, universities have given in to the idea that they should provide the same environment as that of the home. To prepare for increased autonomy and responsibility, college needs to be a time of exploration and experimentation. This process involves “tr

36、ying on” new ways of thinking about oneself both intellectually（在思维方面）and personally. While we should provide “safe spaces” within colleges, we must also make it safe to express opinions and challenge majority views. Intellectual growth and flexibility are fostered on debate and questioning.Learning

37、 to deal with the social world is equally important. Because a college community （群体） differs from the family, many students will struggle to find a sense of belonging. If students rely on administrators to 7regulate their social behavior and thinking pattern, they are not facing the challenge of fi

38、nding an identity within a larger and complex community.Moreover, the tendency for universities to monitor and shape student behavior runs up against another characteristic of young adults: the response to being controlled by their elders. If acceptable social behavior is too strictly defined (规定) a

39、nd controlled, the insensitive or aggressive behavior that administrators are seeking to minimize may actually be encouraged.It is not surprising that young people are likely to burst out, particularly when there are reasons to do so. Our generation once joined hands and stood firm at times of natio

40、nal emergency. What is lacking today is the conflict between adolescents desire for autonomy and their understanding of an unsafe world. Therefore, there is the desire for their dorms to be replacement homes and not places to experience intellectual growth.Every college discussion about community va

41、lues, social climate and behavior should include recognition of the developmental importance of student autonomy and self-regulation, of the necessary tension between safety and self-discovery.58. Whats the authors attitude toward continued parental guidance to college students?A. Sympathetic B. Dis

42、approvingC. Supportive D. Neutral59. The underlined word “passage” in Paragraph 2 means_.A. change B. choice C. text D. extension60. According to the author, what role should college play?A. To develop a shared identity among students.B. To define and regulate students social behaviorC. To provide a

43、 safe world without tension for students.D. To foster students intellectual and personal development.61. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage.CIf a diver surfaces(浮出水面) too quickly, he may suffer the bends（减压8病）. Nitrogen (氮) dissolved (溶解) in his blood is suddenly li

44、berated（释放）by the reduction of pressure. The consequence, if the bubbles (气泡) accumulate in a joint, is sharp pain and a bent bodythus the name. If the bubbles form in his lungs or his brain, the consequence can be death.Other air-breathing animals also suffer this decompression (减压) sickness if the

45、y surface too fast: whales, for example. And so, long ago, did ichthyosaurs(鱼龙). That these ancient sea animals got the bends can be seen from their bones. If bubbles of nitrogen form inside the bone they can cut off its blood supply. This kills the cells in the bone, and consequently weakens it, so

46、metimes to the point of collapse. Fossil (化石) bones that have caved in on themselves are thus a sign that the animal once had the bends.Bruce Rothschild of the University of Kansas knew all this when he began a study of ichthyosaur bones to find out how widespread the problem was in the past. What h

47、e particularly wanted to investigate was how ichthyosaurs adapted to the problem of decompression over the 150 million years. To this end, he and his colleagues traveled the worlds natural-history museums, looking at hundreds of ichthyosaurs from the Triassic(三叠纪) period and from the later Jurassic(

48、侏罗纪) and Cretaceous(白垩纪) periods.When he started, he assumed that signs of the bends would be rarer in younger fossils, reflecting their gradual evolution（进化）of measures to deal with decompression. Instead, he was astonished to discover the opposite. More than 15% of Jurassic and Cretaceous ichthyosaurs had suffered the bends before they died, but not a single Triassic specimen (标本) showed evidence of that sort of injury.If ichthyosaurs did evolve an anti-decompression means, they clearly did so quicklyand, most strangely, they lost it afterwards. But that is not what Dr Roths
