28、lked two miles to the nearest supermarket twice a week because she didnt know which bus to take. When I told her I would get her a bus schedule (时刻表), she told me it would not help because she could not read it. She said she also had difficulty once she got to the supermarket because she couldnt alw
29、ays remember what she needed. Since she did not know words, she could not write out a shopping list. Also, she could only recognize items by sight, so if the product had a different label (标识) , she would not recognize it as the product she wanted.As we worked together, learning how to read built Ma
30、ries self-confidence ( 自信心 ), which encouraged her to continue in her studies. She began to make rapid progress and was even able to take the bus to the supermarket. After this successful trip, she reported how self-confident she felt. At the end of the program, she began helping her youngest son, T
31、ony, a shy first grader, with his reading. She sat with him before he went to sleep and together they would read bedtime stories. When his eyes became wide with excitement as she read, pride was written all over her face, and she began to see how her own hard work in learning to read paid off. As sh
32、e described this experience, I was proud of myself as well. I found that helping Marie to build her selfconfidence was more rewarding than anything I had ever done before.As a literacy volunteer, I learned a great deal about teaching and helping others. In fact, I may have learned more from the expe

36、th the help of her son.C. Marie decided to continue her studies in school.D. Marie paid for her own lessons.BAs you move around your home, take a good look at the things you have. It is likely that your living room will have a television set and a video, and your kitchen a washing machine and a micr
37、owave oven. Your bedroom drawers will be filled with almost three times as many clothes as yon need. You almost certainly own a car and possibly a home computer, holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week.Now, perhaps, more than ever before, people are wondering what life i
38、s all about, and what it is for. Seeking material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world. They feel that the long-hours work culture to make more money to buy more things is eating up their lives, leaving them very little time or energy for family or pastimes. Many
39、are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of them.Six percent of workers in Britain took the decision to downshift last year. One couple who downshifted is Daniel and Liz. They used to work in central London. He was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an international ban
40、k. Thew would go to work by train even day from their large house in the suburbs (郊区), leaving their two children with a nanny (保姆). Most evenings Daniel wouldnt get home until eight or nine oclock and nearly twice a month he would have to fly to New York for meetings. They both earned a large amoun
41、t of money but began to feel that life was passing them by.Nowadays, they run a farm in the mountains of Wales. I always wanted to have a farm hen, says Daniel, and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift. Its taken some getting used to, but its been worth it. We have to think twice
42、now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays. However, I think its made us stronger as a family, and the children are a lot happier.Liz, however, is not quite sure. I used to enjoy my job, even though it was hard work and long hours. Im not really a country girl, but I
43、suppose Im gradually getting used to looking after the animals. One thing I do like, though, is being able to see more of my children. My advice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much or you might not do it at all.60. What do the first two paragraphs tell us?A. Peo

You need to listen to _ for a programme on outer space.A. Radio 2. B. Radio 3.C. Radio Wales. D. LBC.DHave you ever got stuck with unw
48、anted courses or a class schedule that cannot be changed? If so, that s because you don t know how to select the perfect schedule. But by following a few simple steps, you can begin any term with the right courses at. the most convenient times.First, you must find tile right courses. These are the o
49、nes that have the least amount of work, the fewest tests and the kindest professors. Ask your friends about courses in which they received As after attending only 70 percent of the classes. Ask around, too, to see which instructors have given the same tests for the last fifteen years. Photocopies of
50、 these tests are usually cheap and can be easily found in school. Then. pick up a copy of the master schedule and study it carefully. Find the course titles that mean an easy pass for a painless subject. Look for titles like Arts and Crafts for Beginners, and Rock Music of the 1950s.Next, when you h
51、ave got lists of easy instructors and subjects, you can begin to select your time periods. If you stay up late in order to watch old movies, you may want a daily schedule that begins no sooner than noon. You should schedule only afternoon courses, too, if youre one of those people who hate to leave
52、a warm bed in the morning. On the other hand, if you are a person who gets out of bed at dawn, you may want to get your classes out of the way as early as possible. That way you have the rest of the day free. Morning classes are also necessary if you are a soup opera (肥皂剧) fan.Finally, you want your
53、 schedule to pass through registration successfully. The main way to do this is to register (注册) early. If a course does happen to be closed because you simply couldnt register at 7:00 a. m., you may still. be able to get in. Talk to the professor and tell him or her that a serious and hardworking s
54、tudent like yourself would be a shining example to other students. Be sure to carry a list of backup courses to registration, though, just in case one of your chosen classes changes professors or time periods.By following these suggestions, any student can pick the perfect class schedule. College ca
55、n thus become an almost pleasant activity.67. Which of the fo1lowing statements is true?A. You can get copies of tests if you are willing to pay the price.B. Rock Music of the 1950s may he art easy course.C. it. is difficult to pick the perfect class schedule.D. Attendance is required in all classes
56、.68.

Course Registration Made EasyB. How to Find the Right CoursesC. Classes and After-class ActivitiesD. How
58、to Pick the Perfect ScheduleEChildren have their own rules in playing games. They seldom need a referee (裁判) and rarely trouble to keep scores. They dont care much about who wins or loses, and it doesnt seem to worry them if the game is riot finished. Yet, they like games that depend a lot on luck,
59、so that their personal abilities cannot be directly compared. They also enjoy games that move in stages, in which each stage, the choosing of leaders, the picking-up of sides. or the determining of which side shall, start is almost a game in itself.Grown-ups can hardly find childrens games exciting,
60、 arid they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again. However, it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons. He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone
61、of whom he is ordinarily afraid. He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn. He can be confident, too, in particular games, that it is his place to give orders, to pretend to be dead, to throw a ball actually at someone, or to kiss someone he has caught.It appears to us that when children play a
62、game they imagine a situation under their control. Everyone knows the rules, and. more importantly, everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish, but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.71. What is true about children when they play games?A. They can stop playin
63、g arty time they like.B. They can test their personal abilities.C. They want to pick a better team.D. They don t need rules.72. To become a leader in a game the child has to _.A. play wellB. wait for his turnC. be confident in himselfD. be popular among his playmates73. What do we know about grown-u
64、ps?A. They are not interested in games.B. They find childrens games too easy.C. They dont need a reason to play games.D. They don t understand childrens games.74. Why does a child like playing games?A. Because he can be someone other than himself.B. Because he can become popular among friends.C. Bec
65、ause he finds he is always lucky in games.D. Because he likes the place where he plays a game.75. The writer believes that _.A. children should make better rules for their gamesB. children should invite grown-ups to play with themC. childrens games can do them a lot of goodD. children play games wit
