I had just taken my place in class, (33)_ I noticed a small shining coin a few

12、feet away from my desk. I am sure it was not the desire for gain which prompted me to stoop and pick it up, (34) _ the coin was a farthing and almost completely worthless. But its newness (35) _me, and the fact (36) _ I could not spend a coin of such small value, made me want to keep it forever (37)

13、 _ the teacher was talking to us. I pretended to (38) _ a pencil and bent over. From that moment, the coin was mine. The farthing and I remained firm friends for years. Trousers wore (39) _, but the coin survived. It lived to see short trousers become long ones; it accompanied me in my youth and ear

14、ly manhood. It joined the army with me during the war, and later came to the office every day when I became a (40) _ again. Every night when I emptied my pockets and placed their contents on my bedside table, the coin (41) _its appearance. Sometimes, it would play hide and seek with me and make me d

15、ig deeply into my pockets. But sure enough, it was always there, trapped inside larger items, (42) _ a penknife (43) _ in the folds of my handkerchief. It certainly kept strange company. When I was a boy, it would attach itself (44) _ sticky sweets, or get caught in pieces of wire. When I grew up, i

16、t took its place proudly beside the silver coins that jingled in my pocket. It had reason to be proud, for I am sure it knew (45) _I would rather have lost every single coin I had than part with the precious little farthing. It did not shine any more, but at night time it would unfailingly arrive, l

18、 Read the following texts and answer the questions which accompany them by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 50 How do we measure the economic return to higher education? Typically it is calculated as the difference between average wages of college graduates and those who h

19、ave not graduated from college. In 1997, for example, college graduates earned an average of $40, 508 versus just $ 23, 970 for non-college graduates. Based on these income levels, the economic return to a college education is approximately 69 percent, the difference between the two income levels. B

20、ut this simple calculation ignores the fact that college graduates tend to come from higher socioeconomic levels, are more highly motivated, and probably have higher IQs than nongraduates. Although these factors influence incomes, they are not the result of college attendance. Therefore the result o

21、f the study is an overstatement of the returns to higher education. More sophisticated analyses adjust for these extraneous influences. For instance economists Orley Ashenfelter and Alan Krueger, estimate that each year of post-high school education results in a wage premium of between 15 and 16 per

22、cent. Their study is particularly relevant because they examined the earnings differences for identical twins with different education levels, allowing them to control for genetic and socioeconomic factors. Other research puts the wagfe premium for college graduates at nearly 50 per cent. Unfortunat

23、ely, you cant spend a college wage premium. Income levels for the average college graduate have stagnated. After adjusting for inflation, the average income of college graduates holding full-time jobs rose by only 4. 4 per cent between 1979 and 1997, or at a minuscule annual rate of 0. 2 percent. At

24、 the same time, workers with only high-school degrees saw their real income plummet by 15 percent. Bottom line: the much-ballyhooed college wage “premium“ is due primarily to the fall in inflation-adjusted salaries of workers who havent been to college. In fact, if you dont go on to graduate school

25、or are not among the top graduates at one of the nations elite colleges, chances are your sky-high tuition is buying you no economic advantage whatsoever. In recent decades the flood of graduates has been so great that an increasing proportion have found themselves, within a few years, working as sa

26、les clerks, cab drivers, and in other jobs that do not require a college degree. In 1995, approximately 40 percent of people with some college education and 10 percent of those with a college degree worked at jobs requiring only high-school skills. Thats up from 30 percent and 6 percent, respectivel

27、y, in 1971. 51 The traditional calculation of the economic return to higher education is inaccurate because _. ( A) it doesnt take into account the changing economic situations ( B) it involves small samples ( C) it failed to incorporate some aspects which themselves might have added to the earnings

28、 of college graduates ( D) it does not specify whether non-college graduates have high-school degrees 52 What does the author mean when he says “you cant spend a college wage premium“ (para. 3)? ( A) College graduates tend to stash money away. ( B) The economic returns for college graduates have dec

29、reased since 1979. ( C) The economic returns to higher education have not increased very much since 1979. ( D) College graduates could hardly earn enough to pay high living cost. 53 Which of the following statements is NOT true? ( A) The economic return to higher education is lower by the more sophi

30、sticated analyses than by traditional methods. ( B) Results of analyses of college premium differ greatly. ( C) Between 1979 and 1997, workers with only high-school degrees saw their real income fall. ( D) Graduates from graduate schools have the same economic returns as those from colleges. 54 Acco

31、rding to the last paragraph, _. ( A) more and more people go to elite colleges ( B) tuition has started to decline ( C) there are too many college graduates ( D) the quality of college education has declined 55 Which of the following is the topic of the passage? ( A) Overestimated college premium. (

32、 B) The payoffs of college education. ( C) The myths of college education. ( D) The decline of college education. 55 “She was Americas princess as much as she was Britains princess, “ wrote the foreign editor of the normally sharp Chicago Tribune a week after the death in Paris of Diana, Princess of

33、 Wales. He was not far off the mark. For Americans have indeed taken posthumous possession of Britains “Peoples Princess“. What was happening? How was it that a nation whose school children are taught in history class to look down on the “tyranny“ of the English monarchy, suddenly appeared so suppor

34、tive of a member of the British royal family? Why was it that numerous American commentators sought to expand into touch the rumour that Diana had planned to move to the United States to live? Part of the answer lies in Americas status as the celebrity culture par excellence. It is from their celebr

35、ities that many Americans derive their sense of nationhood. Their presidents must be celebrities in order to be elected. Writer and commentator Norman Mailer made the point after the last presidential election that Bill Clinton won because he projected the image of a Hollywood star, while Bob Dole l

36、ost because he came across as a supporting actor. What seems to have happened is that the inhabitants of the nation that produced Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley have found it almost impossible to accept that Princess Diana, the worlds biggest, classiest contemporary celebrity by far, should have c

37、ome from another country. Even that, many seemed to say to themselves, was merely an accident of birth; because in many ways she was so American. Her New Age preferences the astrologers, the psychics, the aromatherapy were closer to the style of former US First Lady Nancy Reagan than the House of Wi

38、ndsor. Her dieting and her visits to the gym were lifestyle options that were typically American. Her famous TV confession of adultery and her (purportedly unauthorized) tell-all biography were also hallmarks of the American celebrity approach. Like another former First Lady, Jackie Kennedy, she auc

39、tioned her dresses-not in London or Pads, but New York. She visited America frequently and felt right at home there, reveling in the generous attentions of the rich and famous and delighting in the unreserved responsiveness of the public to her charms. For she seemed to have adapted brilliantly to a

40、nother American invention: image manipulation, which all aspirants to political office in the US struggle to learn but which she appeared to have absorbed and refined naturally. She was, in short, a thoroughly modern woman and, like it or not, most of what is modern originates in the United States.

41、But many Americans felt she also had more enduring qualities. Many viewed her as the incarnation of their countrys dominant myth. As an editorial in the Miami Herald put it: “She was an American dream, a superstar Cinderella with the polish of a natural-born socialite. . In a way she fulfilled the A

42、merican dream: to emerge from insignificance and overcome hardship and make something of herself. “ Elaine Showalter, a student of American popular culture who teaches English at Princeton University, noted the difference between the dullness of Prince Charles and Dianas “very American sensibility“.

43、 “We have a sense here in America that anything is possible, that you are not a predetermined person; that if you are a woman from whom nothing is expected but you want to make your life count, you can do it. She shared that spirit and thats why she appealed so much to Americans. “ 56 The author sug

44、gests that whether one can win the presidential election depends on his ( A) political ambition ( B) fame and charm ( C) political achievements ( D) family influence 57 The author mentions Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley because they_. ( A) had many preferences that were similar to Dianas ( B) love

45、d the United States, just as Diana did ( C) were American celebrities ( D) were the most famous in their days and were Americans 58 It can be inferred that_. ( A) Diana had planned to move to the United States ( B) the author seems also to think that Diana belonged to the United States ( C) American

46、 children are taught to tolerate all kinds of social systems ( D) Diana worked hard to learn image manipulation 59 What is “count“(paragraph 5, sentence 6) most likely to mean? ( A) Calculate. ( B) Last a long time. ( C) Assume importance. ( D) Be accepted. 60 Which of the following statements is TR

47、UE according to the passage? ( A) Chicago Tribune has a keen sense of hot news and is always skillful at singing the praises. ( B) The foreign editor of Chicago Tribune was exaggerating saying Diana was Americas princess. ( C) While running for presidency, Clinton prepared posters of himself as a mo

48、vie star. ( D) Diana was dear to the hearts of Americans because she was a modern Cinderella. 60 Car makers have long used sex to sell their products. Recently, however, both BMW and Renault have based their latest European marketing campaigns around the icon of modern biology. BMWs campaign, which

49、launches its new 3-series sports saloon in Britain and Ireland, shows the new creation and four of its earlier versions zigzagging around a landscape made up of giant DNA sequences, with a brief explanation that DNA is the molecule responsible for the inheritance of such features as strength, power and intelligence. The Renault offering, which promotes its existing Laguna model, employs evolutionary theory even more explicitly. The companys
