While Sin
27、gapore is already home to a number of foreign institution campuses offering graduate studies, the Economic Development Board (EDB) is hoping to encourage universities from the UK, USA or Australia to open a campus that will offer undergraduate courses, in competition with the three local universitie
28、s. A Singapore-based university campus would charge the same tuition fees(学费)as in its home country and 70 per cent of students are expected to come from overseas. The board is also hoping to attract a range of foreign specialist schools in areas such as hospitality, fashion and cooking.Teo Ming Kia
29、n, Chairman of EDB, said, “Having more quality foreign and local private education players will bring out creation of new knowledge and a variety of offerings via competition. This will bring us a step closer towards being an attractive education centre.”Last August, the Singapore Tourist Board anno
30、unced the launch of “Singapore Education”, an umbrella brand that is the spearhead for Singapores image as a premier education hub overseas. The board plans to develop a full range of publicity materials to market and promote Singapores education services in key student markets such as China, India
31、and Indonesia. A website containing information for students will also be developed.Singapores Trade and Industry Minister, George Yeo, explained that 45 per cent of the 1.8 million students worldwide studying in foreign countries came from Asia. “As more Asians strive to follow in the footsteps of
32、those who have succeeded in developed countries, they create a huge demand for educational services, most of which will be met in Asia itself,” he explained.The EDB has calculated that foreign students spend between about US$3,000 and US$8,000 every year on top of tuition fees.56. According to the p
33、assage, all of the following statements are true EXCEPT that _.A. a foreign student in Singapore spends 3,000 to 8,000 US dollars besides tuition fees.B. Singapore welcomes all kinds of educational institutions to run education in the country.C. the Singapore Tourist Board is trying its best to attr
34、act international students.D. there are 1.8 million students worldwide studying in Singapore at present.57. The authors main purpose in writing the passage is to _.

36、t she owns. It was the middle of the afternoon; we were both pretty happy and making plans for the weekend, and the atmosphere was extremely relaxed, almost lazy. Suddenly a man entered the shop. We knew, somehow, that he didnt look like one of our usual customers, but we welcomed him politely anywa
37、y. Without any hesitation he pulled something out of his coat that we did not recognize immediately, but when he ordered us to go into the back with him, there was no doubt that this something was a gun.Giving us precise orders, he offended us and kept reminding us that he could shoot at any time. H
38、e looked for the money in the register, from our wallets, and then he asked for our jewelry and we gave him all he wanted. Finally he brought his job to conclusion and left.When I was a child, I felt safe with my parents in my home or wherever I was not alone. Then I began to understand the news and
39、 I learnt that horrible things were happening out there, but I still kept thinking that those events were just other peoples worries, not mine. From the precise moment the guy walked out of the shop, I completely changed my way of relating to the world. I always look around to see which kinds of peo
40、ple are possibly following me. Now I usually double-check everything: if Ive locked myself in the car or in the house. I am always careful not to wear any jewelry. Whenever an unknown guy is getting too close or is trying to get information from me, I tighten up. I know that it is wrong, that not ev
41、eryone is looking to attack me again.After all, I consider myself lucky, since nothing really bad happened to me or to my friend, but what affects me is the thought of what could have happened. We could have died or he could have beaten or raped us! I know that I have to work on it because since tha
42、t day I havent felt safe anymore. What I dont know is where to start. Now I am sure only of one fact, that I blame this guy, not for having taken my jewelry, but for having deprived (剥夺) me of my innocence. 59. Which of the following statements best describes the main idea of the passage?A. A joke t
43、hat a stupid friend played on the writer.B. Terrible things can happen to anybody.C. A car accident and other bad things that happen to people.D. A robbery and its effect on the writers life.60.

How is it that the author considers herself lucky?A. She did not lose all her money.B. She has never been robbed again.C. She was only injured slightly.D.
45、She could have been hurt or killed, but she wasnt.62. What was the most serious result of the robbery to the writer?A. She doesnt trust others or feel safe.B. She and her friend were beaten and raped.C. Her friend closed the store after the robbery.D. The robber was still at large.CHome economics cl
46、ass was a troublemakers heaven, and naughty Darin could imagine all kinds of fun when he saw the well-furnished home economics classroom. Sewing machines! Mixers! The possibilities were endless!Mrs. Pott began teaching in her thorough way, and the introductory sewing lesson went well. She showed her
47、 students how to thread the reel(线轴)and the needle. Then she showed how to position the cloth, gently push on the foot pedal, and sew two pieces of material together. Meanwhile, Darin imagined a racecar turning around a track at an unbelievable speed because the sound of the foot pedal was exactly l
48、ike that of a car!When Mrs. Pott told everyone to go to his or her machine and prepare to sew a sample square. Darin raced to his machine, sat down, and floored the foot pedal and immediately his machine gave out a sickening roar. Other students looked up from their reels and were shocked as black s
49、moke poured out of the machine. Darin finally lifted his foot from the pedal, but it was too late. The classrooms smoke alarm went off and set off all other alarms throughout the school. Students pushed their way outside. Long and loud fire sirens could be heard nearby, and Mrs. Potts embarrassment
50、was utmost when she spotted a television crew from a local news station. They squatted on the lawn and filmed the mass departure from the school!The crisis was under control in about an hour. Mrs. Pott felt better after an aspirin and the reassurance that she wasnt liable to any financial responsibi
51、lity. Back in class, Mrs. Pott quietly took Darin aside and told him that if he did anything else like that, she would make sure he would never sew again! Darin didnt even flinch at the threat, even though it was the ultimate statement of Mrs. Potts antipathy(反感) towards him.As a consequence of this
52、 disaster, Darin wrote a letter of apology. When Darin turned in the letter to the head administrator, he forgave him on the spot. The balding man just kept smiling and referring to how well the alarm system worked! Darin promised that he would try to behave in home economics class, no matter what.6
53、3.What was Darin imagining as he pressed down on the foot pedal?A.Skiing downhill.B.A perfect seam.C.Stepping up a ladder.D.A racetrack 64. Which of the following statements agrees with the passage?A. A television crew visited the school to cover the crisis.B. Mrs. Pott paid for the damage done to t
54、he school facilities.C.The head administrator readily forgave Mrs. Pott. D.Darin promised that he would never sew again.65.Why did black smoke poured out of the machine?A.Because the machine would be more like a racing car with the smoke.B.Because Darin used a mixer in the classroom to make the smok
55、e.C.Because Darin pushed the foot pedal too hard.D. Because the sewing machine had gasoline as its fuel. 66.What made Mrs. Pott feel most uncomfortable?A.The head administrator gave the trouble-maker his due punishment. B.The event might be broadcast by the local news station.C.Other students didnt
56、do anything to stop Darin making trouble. D.Her sewing class was completely spoiled by Darin.DAttention to detail is something everyone can and should do-especially in a tight job market. Bob Crossley, a human-resources expert notices this in the job applications that come cross his desk every day.
57、“Its amazing how many applicants turn themselves down,” he says.“Resumes(简历)arrive with ink marks. Some applicants dont bother to spell the companys name correctly. Once I see a mistake, I turn down the applicant,” Crossley concludes. “If they cannot take care of these details, why should we trust t
58、hem with a job?”Can we pay too much attention to details? Absolutely. Perfectionists struggle over little things at the cost of something larger they work toward. “To keep from losing the forest for the trees,” says Charles Garfield, associate professor at the University of California, San Francisco
59、, “we must constantly ask ourselves how the details were working on fit into the larger picture. If they dont, we should drop them and move to something else.”Garfield compares this process to his work as a computer scientist at NASA. “The Apollo II moon launch was slightly off-course 90 percent of
60、the time,” says Garfield. “but a successful landing was still likely because we knew the exact coordinates(坐标)of our goal. This allowed us to make adjustments as necessary.” Knowing where we want to go helps us judge the importance of every task we undertake.Too often we believe what leads to others
61、 success is some special secret or good luck. But rarely is success so mysterious. Again and again, we see that by doing little things within our grasp well, large rewards follow.67.According to the passage, some job applicants were rejected because _.A. they didnt describe their background in detai
62、l B. they removed their names from the applicants list C. companies cant afford to employ careless persons D. companies want well educated persons with good spelling68.A person can be described as a “perfectionists” if he _.A. demands others to get everything absolutely rightB. makes necessary adjus

Mind details when drawing pictures.B. You can never be too careful.C. Always b
64、ear in mind the importance of a task.D. Proper attention to details does pay70.The example of the Apollo II moon launch is given to show that _.A. minor mistakes are not important in achieving major objectivesB. keeping ones goal in mind helps in making adjustmentsC. making adjustments plays the mos
65、t important role in the success of workD. scientists are not supposed to make any mistakes in their scientific work71.The best title for this passage would be _.A. Secret of success lies in good luckB. Details and objectivesC. Perfect or practical, thats the questionD. Always adjusting your courseEN
66、o motive(动机)could be found. Cause of death could not be determined. Billions had been killed and the mystery puzzled all the detectives. The main problem was the lack of clues-after all, the crisis in question occurred over 350 million years ago, in the early Devonian era(泥盆纪), a good hundred millio
67、n years before dinosaurs roamed the earth. The victims were tiny ocean animals-some 50% of all the creatures living in the ocean suddenly died and nobody knows why. Now Thomas Algeo, a geochemist at the University of Cincinnati, thinks he may have solved the case. The murderers, he says, were plants
68、 and trees. It was an accident, though, all the plants did was start to evolve (进化).Algeo said:“About 410 to 400 million years ago land plants started to grow in kinds and they started to develop a lot of new structures that permitted them to grow in wider natural environment”As plants evolved, usin
69、g the energy from the sunlight to produce its own food and getting bigger, they began to spread out over the land. This, in turn, produced nutrient rich soil, which was washed into the sea. Thus, a large amount of dissolved nutrients were transported to the shallow ocean environment, producing seawe
70、ed, and they robbed the water of oxygen. These low oxygen conditions caused the demise of many ocean creatures. And this is the fundamental link between the earth and ocean environment. Algeo was the first person to make the connection between the growth of plants on land and the death of the animal
71、s in the ocean, and hes currently trying to get other scientists to accept his theory. Theres no way to know for sure if this is exactly what happened, but according to Algeo, the case of the Devonian deaths is closed. 72. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Murderous PlantsB
72、. Endangered AnimalsC. A Horrible LessonD. A Fight for Oxygen73. The underlined word “demise” in the third paragraph probably means _.A. growthsB. escapeC. deathsD. decrease74. In the opinion of Thomas Algeo, _.A. there is no way to know what exactly happenedB. he has worked out the mysteryC. dinosa
73、urs killed about 50% of the ocean creaturesD. he is the best ever detective in history75. It can be inferred from the passage that _.A. connections are common in nature B. animals will surely die without plantsC. natural balance shouldnt be destroyedD. ther scientists will accept Algeos theory第五部分:对
