7、ou really need. Lets assume you once actually completed a couple of years of college work or even that you completed your degree. Isnt it tempting to lie just a little, to claim on the form that your diploma represents a Harvard degree? Or that you finished an extra couple of years back at State Uni
8、versity? More and more people are turning to utter deception like this to land their job or to move ahead in their careers, for personnel officers, like most Americans, value degrees from famous schools. A job applicant may have a good education anyway, but he or she assumes that chances of being hi
9、red are better with a diploma from a well-known university.Registrars at most well-known colleges say they deal with deceitful claims like these at the rate of about one per week. Personnel officers do check up on degrees listed on application forms, then. If it turns out that an applicant is lying,
10、 most colleges are reluctant to accuse the applicant directly. One Ivy League school calls them “impostors (骗子)“; another refers to them as “special cases“. One well-known West Coast school, in perhaps the most delicate phrase of all, says that these claims are made by “no such people“. To avoid out
11、right (彻底的) lies, some job-seekers claim that they “attended“ or “were associated with“ a college or university. After carefully checking, a personnel officer may discover that “attending“ means being dismissed after one semester. It may be that “being associated with“ a college means that the job-s
12、eeker visited his younger brother for a football weekend. One school that keeps records of false claims says that the practice dates back at least to the turn of the century-thats when they began keeping records, anyhow, if you dont want to lie Or even stretch the truth, there are companies that wil
13、l sell you a phony diploma.One company, with offices in New York and on the West Coast, will put your name on a diploma from any number of nonexistent colleges. The price begins at around twenty dollars for a diploma from “Smoot State University“. The prices increase rapidly for a degree from the “U
14、niversity of Purdue“. As there is no Smoot State and the real school in Indiana is properly called Purdue University, the prices seem rather high for one sheet of paper.（分数：44.50）(1).The main idea of this passage is that _ .（分数：8.90）A.employers are checking more closely on applicants nowB.lying abou
15、t college degrees has become a widespread problemC.college degrees can now be purchased easilyD.employers are no longer interested in college degrees(2).According to the passage, “special cases“ refers to cases that _ .（分数：8.90）A.students attend a school only part-timeB.students never attended a sch

19、, felt, used-what a culture produces. Examining a cultures tools and technology can tell us about the groups history and way of life. Similarly, research into the material culture of music can help us to understand the music culture. The most vivid body of material culture in it, of course, is music
20、al instruments. We cannot hear for ourselves the actual sound of any musical performance before the 1870s when the phonograph was invented, so we rely on instruments for important information about music cultures iii the remote past and their development. Here we have two kinds of evidence: instrume
21、nts well preserved and instruments pictured in art. Through the study of instruments, as well as paintings, written documents, and so on, we can explore the movement of music from the Near East to China over a thousand years ago, or we can outline the spread of Near Eastern influence to Europe that
22、resulted in the development of most of the instruments in the symphony orchestra.Sheet music or printed music, too, is material culture. Scholars once defined folk music cultures as those in which people learn and sing music by ear rather than from print, but research shows mutual influence among or
23、al and written sources during the past few centuries in Europe, Britain, and America. Printed versions limit variety because they tend to standardize any song, yet they stimulate people to create new and different songs. Besides, the ability to read music notation has a far-reaching effect on music
24、and, when it becomes widespread, on the music culture as a whole.One more important part of musics material culture should be singled out: the influence of the electronic media-radio, record player, tape recorder, television, and videocassette, with the future promising talking and singing computers
25、 and other developments. This is all part of tile “information revolution“, a twentieth-century phenomenon as important as the industrial revolution was in the nineteenth. These electronic media are not just limited to modern nations; they have affected music cultures all over the globe.（分数：44.50）(1

28、 Eastern and Western musicD.the musical instruments in the symphony orchestra were developed on the basis of Near Eastern music(3).According to the author, music notation is important because _ .（分数：8.90）A.it has a great effect on the music culture as more and more people are able to read itB.it ten
