You can leave now.”A week later, the second young man also returned. “Lord, Ive been to the mountaintop _22_ a forest of tall pine trees and vultures circling in the air. Thats a really nice place.”“What a pity!” said the chief
14、. “Son, youve been halfway up the mountain rather than to the summit. Now you can leave .” A month later, the third young man showed up in rags, his hair off-colored but his eyes clear and bright. ks5u“Lord, I succeeded in reaching the summit.

If you could grab your diving gear and swim down 650 feet into the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Washingt
17、on State, you would witness the secret world of glass reefs.The reef youd be looking at is made up of glass sponges(海绵). But how can animals be made of glass? Well, glass is formed from a substance called silica. The sponges use the silica found in ocean waters to build glass structures that will gi
18、ve them shape and support. Be careful! Some of the fragile creatures are up to 200 years old.When sponges die, new ones grow on top of the pile of old ones. Over centuries, a massive and complex reef takes shape. Some sponges look like wrinkled trumpets, while others look like overgrown cauliflower
19、or mushrooms.Dr. Paul Johnson, who discovered the Washington reef in 2007, also found other surprises such as bubbles of methane(甲烷) gas flowing out of the seafloor nearby. The methane feeds bacteria, and the bacteria feed the glass sponges.“Its a new ecosystem we know nothing about,” said Dr. Johns
20、on.The reef of yellow and orange glass sponges is crowded with crabs, shrimp, starfish, worms, snails, and rockfish. The glass reef is also a nursery for the babies of many of these creatures and was called a “kindergarten” by scientists.Many animals that live in the reef hang around for a long time
21、, just like the sponges. Rockfish, for example, live for more than 100 years. Scientists are just beginning to study all the species that call the reef home. ks5uThe Washington coast isnt the only place where a living glass reef has been found. The first was discovered in Hecate Strait off the coast
22、 of British Columbia in 1991. Scientists all over the world were stunned to see it. 26. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Man-made cities under the sea B.

Greatly surprised. B. Extremely scared. C. Highly satisfied. D. Very pleased. ks5uBOne day, Jack threw some p
26、apers on my desk. “Whats wrong?” I asked. “Next time you want to change anything, ask me first,” he said, and left. I had made just one small change. But its not that I hadnt been warned. My colleagues had said he was responsible for the resignations of the two previous secretaries. As the weeks wen
27、t by, I came to look down on Jack.After another of his episodes had left me in tears I stormed into his office. “what?” he said suddenly. “Jack, the way youve been treating me is wrong. Ive never had anyone speak to me that way. As a professional, its wrong for me to allow it to continue,” I said. J
28、ack smiled nervously, “Susan, I make you a promise that I will be a friend. I will treat you as you deserve to be treated, with respect and kindness.” Jack avoided me the rest of the week, and never questioned my work again. I brought cookies to the office one day and left some on his desk. Another
29、day I left a note: ”Hope your day is going great. ” Over the next few weeks, there were no more Jack episodes. One year later I discovered I had breast cancer, and was scared. The statistics were not great for my long-term survival.One day, however, Jack visited me in the hospital and silently hande
30、d me a bundle with several bulbs inside. “Tulips(郁金香),” he said. I smiled, not understanding. “If you plant them when you get home, theyll come up next spring. I think you will be there to see them when they come up. Next spring you will see the colours I picked out for you.” Tears clouded my eyes a
31、nd he left. I have seen those red and white striped（有条纹的） tulips push through the soil every spring for over ten years now. This past September the doctor declared me cured. At a moment when I was praying for just the right word, a man with very few words said all the right things. After all, thats
32、what friends do.31. Jack became angry that day because_.A. he was feeling unwellB. Susan had failed to keep his office cleanC. he felt Susan changed too much about the papersD. Susan had changed something without his permission32. Susan stormed into jacks office to tell Jack that_.A. he wasnt worthy

35、as manyC. a friend who says little must be a good friendD. we must treat disrespectful people with disrespect CThroughout this long, tense election, everyone has focused on the presidential candidates and how theyll change America. Rightly so, but selfishly, Im more fascinated by Michelle Obama and
36、what she might be able to do, not just for this country, but for me as an African-American woman. As the potential First Lady, she would have the worlds attention. And that means that for the first time people will have a chance to get up close and personal with the type of African-American woman th
37、ey so rarely see.Usually, the lives of black women go largely unexamined. The prevailing theory seems to be that were all hot-tempered single mothers who cant keep a man. Even in the world of make-believe, black women still cant escape the stereotype of being eye-rolling, oversexed females raised by
38、 our never-married, alcoholic (酗酒的) mothers.These images have helped define the way all women are viewed, including Michelle Obama. Before she ever gets the chance to commit to a cause, charity or foundation as First Lady, her most urgent and perhaps most complicated duty may be simple to be herself
39、.It wont be easy. Because few mainstream publications have done in-depth features on regular African-American women, little is known about who we are, what we think and what we face on a regular basis. For better or worse, Michelle will represent us all.Just as she will have her critics, she will al
40、so have millions of fans who usually have little interest in the First Lady. Many African-American blogs have written about what theyd like to see Michelle bring to the White Housemainly showing the world that a black woman can support her man and raise a strong black family. Michelle will have to w
41、ork to please everyonean impossible task. But for many African-American women like me, just a little of her poise (沉着), confidence and intelligence will go a long way in changing an image thats been around for far too long.36. Why does Michelle Obama hold a strong fascination for the author?A) She s
42、erves as a role model for African women.B) She possesses many admirable qualities becoming a First Lady.C) She will present to the world a new image of African-American women.D) She will pay closer attention to the interests of African-American women.37. What is the common stereotype of African-Amer
43、ican women according to the author?A) They are victims of violence. B) They are of an inferior violence.C) They use quite a lot of body language. D) They live on charity and social welfare.38. What do many African-Americans write about in their blogs?A) Whether Michelle can live up to the high expec
44、tations of her fans.B) How Michelle should behave as a public figure.C) How proud they are to have a black woman in the White House.D) What Michelle should do as wife and mother in the White House.39. What does the author say about Michelle Obama as a First Lady?A) However many fans she has, she sho
45、uld remain modest,B) She shouldnt disappoint the African-American community.C) However hard she tries, she cant expect to please everybody.D) She will give priority to African-American womens concerns.40. What do many African-American women hope Michelle Obama will do?A) Help change the prevailing v
46、iew about black women. ks5uB) Help her husband in the task of changing America.C) Outshine previous First Lady.D) Fully display her fine qualities. DWhen next years crop of high-school graduates arrive at Oxford University in the fall of 2009, theyll be joined by a new face; Andrew Hamilton, the 55-
47、year-old provost (教务长) of Yale, wholl become Oxfords vice-chancellora position equivalent to university president in America.Hamilton isnt the only educator crossing the Atlantic. Schools in France, Egypt, Singapore, etc, have also recently made top-level hires from abroad. Higher education has beco
48、me a big and competitive business nowadays, and like so many businesses, its gone global. Yet the talent flow isnt universal. High-level personnel tend to head in only one direction: outward from America.The chief reason is that American schools dont tend to seriously consider looking abroad. For ex
49、ample, when the board of the University of Colorado searched for a new president, it wanted a leader familiar with the state government, a major source of the universitys budget. “We didnt do any global consideration,” says Patricia Hayes, the boards chair. The board ultimately picked Bruce Benson,
50、a 69-year-old Colorado businessman and political activist (活动家) who is likely to do well in the main task of modern university presidents: fund-raising. Fund-raising is a distinctively American thing, since U.S. schools rely heavily on donations. The fund-raising ability is largely a product of expe
51、rience and necessity.Many European universities, meanwhile, are still mostly dependent on government funding. But government support has failed to keep pace with rising student number. The decline in government support has made funding-raising an increasing necessary ability among administrators and
52、 has hiring committees hungry for Americans.In the past few years, prominent schools around the world have joined the trend. In 2003, when Cambridge University appointed Alison Richard, another former Yale provost, as its vice-chancellor, the university publicly stressed that in her previous job she
53、 had overseen “a major strengthening of Yales financial position.”Of course, fund-raising isnt the only skill outsiders offer. The globalization of education means more universities will be seeking heads with international experience of some kind of promote international programs and attract a globa
54、l student body. Foreigners can offer a fresh perspective on established practices.41. What is the current trend in higher education discussed in the passage?A) Institutions worldwide are hiring administrators from the U.S.B) A lot of political activists are being recruited as administrators.C) Ameri
55、can universities are enrolling more international students.D) University presidents are paying more attention to funding-raising.42. What is the chief consideration of American universities when hiring top-level administrators?A) The political correctness. B) Their ability to raise funds.C) Their fa

What do we learn about European universities from the passage?A) The tuitions they charge have been rising considerably.B) Their operation is under strict government supervision.C) They are strengthening their position by globalization.D
57、) Most of their revenues come from the government.44. Cambridge University appointed Alison Richard as its vice-chancellor chiefly because _.A) she was known to be good at raising moneyB) she could help strengthen its ties with YaleC) she knew how to attract students overseasD) she had boosted Yales

In what way do top-level administrators from abroad contribute to university development?A) They can enhance the universitys image.B) They will bring with them more international faculty.C) They will view a lot of things from a new perspective.D) They can set up new academic disc
