Sometimes, the high school guard was 36 enough to let him in

The 37 of electricity at home was one of the obstacles to overcome on his way to becoming a doctor. 38 poor conditions, supporting his family after his fathers death, and a high illiteracy(文盲) rate in his country, Pakistan, my father overcame the adversity(逆境) and established his

27、分30分)AQuestion:I hate my boss. I hate my office. I hate my co-workers. Help, please!- AmyAnswer: That does sound unpleasant. It might be time for a career switch, and I have some suggestions, though a few require time travel.Perhaps you should apply to be a tosher, an occupation that involved wander
28、ing through sewers (下水道) to look for small decorative objects in the 19th century. It would certainly get you out of that office. Or you could work as a night soil man, who carried excrement from toilets to the edge of town.What Im saying is: Mary jobs today are terrible. But relatively speaking, th
29、ey are much less terrible and smelly than jobs in the past.Ive got plenty more to make you feel better. According to the book The worst Jobs in History by Tony Robison, the dullest job ever could have belonged to treadmill (踏车) walkers, the folks who walked with slow heavy steps all day without acce
30、ss to entertainment when treadmills were used to press grain into flour. The saddest? Definitely the pleasures of the 18th-century French theater, who were paid to weep during dramas.And Im not even counting all the hundreds of modern jobs that are probably worse than yours. So whats my professional
31、 advice? Unless your performance involves packs of fans booing (发出嘘声) and laughing at you while you work, keep your day job.- Jacobs56. By referring to “time travel”, Jacobs _.A. suggests that Amy go on a long journey B. suggests that Amy recall her past careersC. wants to mention some jobs in olden
32、 days D. wants to compare jobs of different times57. Whats Jacobs advice to Amy?A. Enough is as good as feast.B. Every bird likes it own nest.C. Each day brings its own bread.D. Empty bottles make the most noise.BWhat are the practical results of the crazy pursuit of beauty? The exercises, the healt
33、h motors or the skin foods to what have they led? Are women more beautiful than they were? These are questions which it is difficult to answer. The campaign for more physical beauty seems to be both a success and a failure. It depends how you look at the results.It is a success to some degree as mor
34、e women keep their youthful appearance to a greater age than in the past. “Old ladies” are already becoming rare. In a few years, we may well believe, they will be extinct. The Portrait of the Artists Mother will come to be almost indistinguishable, at future picture shows, from the Portrait of the
35、Artists Daughter. This desirable beauty will be due in part to skin foods and facial surgery, and in part to improved health. Ugliness is one of the symptoms of disease; beauty, of health. As the campaign for more beauty is also a campaign for more health, it is admirable. Still, it has problems. In
36、deed, with the development of technology, people have become healthier and more beautiful, but will every woman be beautiful as beautiful, at any rate, as the natural shape of her features, with or without surgical and chemical aid, permits?The answer is no. Real beauty is as much an affair of the i
37、nner self as on the outer self. The beauty of a china jar is a matter of shape and of color. The jar may be empty or occupied by spiders, full of honey or smelly slime (黏液) - it makes no difference to its beauty or ugliness. But a woman is alive, and her beauty is therefore not skin deep. The surfac
38、e of the human vessel is affected by the nature of its spiritual contents.I have seen lovely women. Their shape and their color were perfect. And yet they were not beautiful. For the lovely vase was either empty or filled with some ugly things. Spiritual emptiness or ugliness shows through. In contr
39、ast, there is an inner light that can change imperfect or ugly forms into things that are beautiful and attractive.58. In what way can we say the campaign for more beauty is a success?A. People are beginning to pay attention to their appearance.B. It has become much easier for painters to draw old l
40、adies.C. Women look younger than previous generations.D. Knowledge about health has increased hugely.59. What does the author think about the view that beauty represents health?A. Its wrong.B. Its popular. C. It benefits people.C. It needs evidence.60. Which of the following shows the structure of t
41、he passage?A. B. C. D. CWhy are some people more persuasive than others? We bring together some researches into the science of persuasion.An American researcher, Edward Burkley, studied the influence of mental exhaustion on the resistance levels of 78 students. The plan was to try to persuade them t
42、o accept one months summer holiday instead of three. Half the students came to the study fresh. But the other half first had to complete a self-control task in which they wrote down all the thoughts that came into their heads while trying not to think about a white bear. He found that the students w
43、ho had performed the white bear task were less resistant to the idea of giving up two months of holiday.Two other researchers, Rosanna Guadagno and Robert Cialdini, compared the persuasive power of online communication with face-to-face meetings. They had a group of students discuss the introduction
44、 of new exams. The group was divided into pairs of the same sex, each pair including an experimenter whose role was to argue in favor of the idea. Half the discussions took place in an online chatroom, the other half face-to-face. While overall men performed similarly whether they participated in th
45、e electronic or face-to-face discussions, women in face-to-face discussions were more easily persuaded than those who only took part online.In another experiment, John Sparks and Charles Areni asked 118 undergraduates to read testimonials(推荐书) about a scanner. In one version, the testimonials includ
46、ed hesitation like “I mean” and “ummm”; in the other, there were none. The researchers found that when hesitant language was used, people were less easily convinced that this was a scanner worth buying even when it was a better scanner at a lower price. Style was especially important, the researcher
47、s found, when time was limited. “If you cant pay attention to what the speaker is saying,” Sparks says, “you pay attention to how they say it.”Much study has gone into how emotions aid persuasion. The best known and most studied is fear. It serves well in campaigns that try to stop you from doing so
48、mething, like smoking. But fear doesnt always work, says Professor Monique Mitchell Turner, and over time, people become more resistant to scare methods. The same applies to guilt. “We dont want people to tell us were bad people,” says Turner. Anger, however, can be constructively used.61. Whats the
49、 aim of the white bear task?A. To make participants feel tired mentally.B. To see what participants know about white bears.C. To find out how well participants can control themselves.D. To help persuade participants to accept a one-month holiday.62. We learn from Paragraph 3 that if a woman wants to
50、 persuade another woman, she can _.A. ask a man to support her B. behave in an aggressive wayC. talk to the woman face to face D. communicate with the woman online63. According to John Sparks and Charles Arenis research, what is important for a testimonial?A. The product price.B. The writing style.C
51、. The quality of the product.D. The length of the testimonial.64. What will the author most probably talk about next?A. How to use anger to persuade.B. Turners other research findings.C. Why emotions can help to persuade.D. Peoples resistance to anger methods.DA college degree has never been more ne
52、cessary: graduate earn, on average, 80% more than high-school graduates. Yet ever more Americans are taking on serious debt in exchange for that diploma. Between 2004 and 2014, student-loan balances more than tripled to nearly $1.2 trillion. The average debtor leaves college owing around $27,000.Som
53、e of this mounting debt is good news. More Americans are going to collegeundergraduate enrolment rose by nearly 40% between 2000 and 2010, according to the National Centre for Education Statistics. Many are also staying around for a second degree. Average tuition fees have surged, rising by 40% in t
54、he decade to 2015-16 for full-time students at public four-year colleges, and 26% at private ones. Those who take longer to graduateas many increasingly dosimply rack up more loans.Unpaid student loans are now second only to mortgages(抵押贷款) when it comes to household debt in America. Though the hous
55、ing market has been steadily recovering, the share of first-time buyers continues to decline, and is now at its lowest point in nearly three decades, according to the National Association of Realtors. The home-ownership rate among 30-year-olds has been falling, but the fall has been especially fast
56、among those paying off student loans, according to the New York Fed.So are the soaring costs of college keeping millennials from starting households of their own? Using longitudinal(纵向的) data on college-going Americans who were aged between 12 and 17 in 1997, the authors found that student-loan debt
57、ors were in fact more likely than non-debtors to own a house by the age of 30. But this was mostly because debtors tended to be older, employed, married and with children, and the debt was largely irrelevant.Others have found that student debt may delay home-ownership, but does not prevent it entire
58、ly. Young debtors were less likely to own a home than their debt-free peers. Yet when the authors confined their analysis to college graduates, they found that debtors in their late-20s were more likely to own a home than non-debtors. So the reason for the delay in home-buying among those with stude
59、nt loans seems to have been that many had dropped out before earning their degrees.The decline in young home-owners seems to be part of a larger trend of deferring(推迟) the conventional signs of adulthood. The share of 18-to 34-year-olds who are married with children has fallen from 27% in 2000 to 20
60、% in 2015. Several studies have asked whether student debt is nudging youngsters to put off marriage vows and stick to birth control, but the link seems tenuous. As for home-ownership, perhaps the biggest challenge facing young home-buyers is the fact that prices have outpaced income growth for 15 y
61、ears.The amount of debt a student has is often less important than the college or the degree. Students with the most debt often have the greatest earning power, as degrees in business, law and medicine tend to be especially costly. The young adults who tend to be most interrupted by their student de
62、bt are those who either dropped out or went somewhere non-selective.There are even signs that taking on more student debt reduces the odds of bouncing back home to live with ones parents, as long as it results in a degree. In an analysis of longitudinal data on college-going Americans born between 1
63、980 and 1984, Mr Houle and Cody Warner of Montana State University found that the young adults who returned home tended to be younger, underemployed, modestly indebted and from privileged homes. College drop-outs had a particularly high risk of returning to the nest. Every 10% rise in college debt r
64、educed the odds of returning home by around 17%.Millennials may be sluggish(怠惰的) about starting their own households, but college graduates are more likely to do so than their less-educated peers, according to the Pew Research Centre. The earnings of young degree-holders are nearly double those of y
65、oung high-school graduates. There is little question that the rising cost of college education is a problem, but the cost of not goingor, worse, dropping outis higher still.65. The following factors have led to the increasing student-loan balancesEXCEPT_.A. the rising college tuition costsB. the inc
66、reasing number of undergraduatesC. the increasing state spending on educationD. more undergraduates failing to get a degree on time66. We can see a trend in Paragraph 3 that _.A. more 30-year-olds dont own a houseB. fewer student-loan debtors can afford a houseC. more families are unable to pay off
67、student loansD. student loans account for most household debt in America67. According to Paragraphs 4 and 5, student debt _.A. makes it hard for debtors to get a college degreeB. encourages debtors to get employed and marriedC. wont keep debtors from buying a houseD. leads to an increasing number of
68、 dropouts68. The underlined word “tenuous” in Paragraph 6 is the closest in meaning to “_”.A. normalB. weakC. obviousD. informal69. According to the passage, students with the most debt are more likely to _.A. work hardB. live with their parentsC. be financially promisingD. drop out of college70. Wh

82、thing we do in our modern lives requires the use of the Earths natural resources.These natural resources provide the energy for many important things. We mostly depend on fuels such as coal,gas and oil to produce energy.Coal,gas and oil are found underground. Once deposits of these fuels are used up
83、,they are gone.We are now consuming these fuels at a much higher rate than they are being produced. Some people believe that if this continues oilfields and coal mines will become empty in the future.On top of this, burning these fuels produces carbon dioxide,which is harmful to the environment.Carb

As a result, alternative energy is more and more popular.In order for everyon
88、e to survive, sustainable development should be carried out because past development polluted the environment and wasted natural resources. This is a simple idea, but one that is hard to put into practice. However, it is something that we must do because without sustainable development, our future w
89、ill be in danger. Here are some measures to ensure sustainable development. First, we should raise peoples awareness of preserving natural resources. Second, we can reduce the use of fossil fuels. Last but not least, introduce alternative energy, like solar energy, wind power and hydroelectricity to provide heat, light and electricity.In a word, only when we see alternative energy promoted around the world can we live in harmony with nature and improve peoples living standards.
