Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
When your parents advise you to “get an education” in order to raise your income，they tell you only half the truth. What they really mean is to get just enough education to provide manpower for your society，but not so much that you prove an embarrassment to your society.
Get a high school diploma，at least. Without that，you will be occupationally dead unless your name happens to be George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison，and you can successfully dropout in grade school.
Get a college degree，if possible. With a B. A. ，you are on the launching pad. But now you have to start to put on the brakes. If you go for a master's degree，make sure it is an M. B. A. ，and is famous. Law of diminishing returns begins to take effect.
Do you know，for instance，that long-haul truck drivers earn more per year than full professors? Yes，the average 1977 salary for those truckers was $ 24，000. While the full professors managed to earn just $ 23，030.
A Ph. D. is the highest degree you can get. Except for a few specialized fields such as physics or chemistry where the degree can quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes，if you pursue such a degree in any other field，you will face a dim future. There are more Ph. D. s unemployed or underemployed in this country than any other part of the world.
If you become a doctor of philosophy in English or history or anthropology or political science or languages or-worst of all-in philosophy. you run the risk of becoming overeducated for our national demands. Not for our needs，mind you，but for our demands.
Thousands of Ph. D. s are selling shoes，driving cars，waiting on table，and endlessly filling out applications month after month. They may also take a job in some high school or backwater college that pays much less than the janitor earns.
You can equate the level of income with the level of education only so far. Far enough，that is，to make you useful to the gross national product. but not so far that nobody can turn much of a profit on you.
According to the writer，what the society expects of education is to turn out people who______.
A. will not be a disgrace to society
B. will become loyal citizens
C. can take care of themselves
D. can meet the nation's demands as a source of manpower

Many people think that when they become rich and successful, happiness will naturally follow. Let me tell you that nothing is further from the truth. The world is full of very rich people who are as miserable as if they were living in hell. We have read stories about movie stars who committed suicide or died from drugs. Quite clearly, money is not the only answer to all problems. Wealth obtained through dishonest means does not bring happiness. Lottery winnings do not bring happiness. Gambling winnings do not bring happiness. To my mind, the secret to happiness lies in your successful work, in your contribution towards others’ happiness and in your wealth you have earned through your own honest effort. If you obtain wealth through luck or dishonest means, you will know that it is ill-earned money. If you get your money by taking advantage of others or by hurting others, you will not be happy with it. You will think you are a base person. Long-term happiness is based on honesty, productive work, contribution, and self-esteem. Happiness is not an end; it is a process. It is a continuous process of honest, productive work which makes a real contribution to others and makes you feel you are a useful, worthy person. As Dr. Wayne wrote, “There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.” There is no use saying “Someday when I achieve these goals, when I get a car, build a house and own my own business, then I will be really happy.” Life just does not work that way. If you wait for certain things to happen and depend on external circumstances of life to make you happy, you will always feel unfulfilled. There will always be something missing.1.What does “nothing is further from the truth” mean?A、 Something. is completely untrue.B、 Something is completely true.C、 We can find out the truth.D、 We cannot find out the truth.2.What are the secrets to happiness in the author’s mind?A、 successful workB、 contribution to other’happinessC、 honest effortD、 all of the above.3.Which of the following is not dishonest means for wealth?A、 lottery winningB、 gambling winningsC、 hard workD、 taking advantage of others4.What does the sentence “There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.” mean according to the passage?A、 Happiness is not an end; it is a process.B、 People do not know how to get happiness.C、 It is hard to get happiness.D、 Happiness is what you feel.5.What is the meaning of the word “unfulfilled”?A、 uncontrolableB、 impoliteC、 dissatisfiedD、 abnormal

Another aspect of C that's worth mentioning here is that it is, to put it bluntly, a bit dangerous. C does not, in general, try hard to protect a programmer from mistakes.

AYou may not realize it，but you are doing much more than just studying，when you are at school． School is also the place where you learn to get along well with people． But this is not al-ways easy． What can you do if you just don-t like one of your classmates? If you discover that you have problems getting along with your classmates or friends，the most important thing to learn is tolerance(宽容)． Tolerance is the ability(能/J ) to realize and respect(尊重) the differences in others． We can not change the way that other people do，so it is important to learn to live happily with them．Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other． Getting to know someone may help you understand why they do things differently． Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad． Tolerance teaches us to keep an even temper and open mind ．You need to remember an old saying，"Treat others how you want to be treated"． You would like to be treated kindly by your classmates，so it is important to treat them kindly too．If you tolerate(宽容) something，it does not mean that you have to like it． No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in． Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change．It is important to practice tolerance，because it will make everyone's lives easier． Learn to accept(接受) people for their different abilities and interests． The world is very different，and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help you make a difference．21． What does the writer think of school?At school，students can not only study but also_________________________

Parkinson's Disease1 Parkinson's disease affects the way you move.It happens when there is a problem with certain nerve cells in the brain. Normally , these nerve cells make an important chemical called dopamine（多巴胺）. Dopa-mine sends signals to the part of your brain that controls movement.It lets your muscles move smoothly and do what you want them to do.When you have Parkinson's,these nerve cells break down.Then you no longerhave enough dopamine,and you have trouble moving the way you want to.2 No one knows for sure what makes these nerve cells break down.But scientists are doing a lot of re-search to look for the answer. They are studying many possible causes,including aging and poisons in the en- vironment.Abnormal genes seem to lead to Parkinson's disease in some people.But so far,there is not enough proof to show that it is always inherited.3 Tremor（颤抖）may be the first symptom you notice.It is one of the most common signs of the disease,although not everyone has it.Tremor often starts in just one arm or leg or only on one side of the body.It may be worse when you are awake but not moving the affected arm or leg. It may get better when you move the limb or when you are asleep.In time,Parkinson's affects muscles all through your body,so it can lead to problems like trouble swallowing or constipation（便秘）.In the later stages of the disease , a person with Parkinson's may have a fixed or blank expression,trouble speaking,and other problems.Some people also have a decrease in mental skills.4 At this time,there is no cure for Parkinson's disease.But there are several types of medicines that can control the symptoms and make the disease easier to live with.You may not even need treatment if your symptoms are mild.Your doctor may wait to prescribe medicines until your symptoms start to get in the way of your daily life.Your doctor will adjust your medicines as your symptoms get worse.You may need to take several medicines to get the best results.You'll find it hard to move the way you want to__________.A:what affects muscles all through your bodyB:if there isn't enough dopamine in your bodyC:which cannot be cured yetD:which may be the first symptom you noticeE:if you have a fixed or blank expression F: what causes Parkinson's disease

第二篇Harmless RevengeRevenge is one of those things that everyone enjoys.People don't like to talk about it,though.Just thesame,there is nothing more satisfying or more rewarding than revenge.The purpose is not to harm your vic-tims but to let them know that you are upset about something that they are doing to you.Careful plotting can provide you with relief from bothersome co-workers,gossiping friends,or nagging family members.Co-workers who make comments about the fact that you are always fifteen minutes late for work can be taken care of very simply.All you have to do is get up extra early one day.Before the sun comes up,drive to each coworker's house.Reach under the hood of your coworker's car and disconnect the center wire that leads to the distributor cap,the car will be unharmed,but it will not start,and your friends at work will all be late for work on the same day.If you're lucky,your boss might notice that you are the only one there and will give you a raise.Gossiping friends at school are also perfect targets for a simple act of revenge.A way to trap either male or female friends is to leave phony messages on their lockers.If the friend that you want to get is male,leave a message that a certain girl would like him to stop by her house later that day.With any luck,her boyfriend will be there.The girl won't know what's going on,and the victim will be so embarrassed that he probably won't leave his home for a month.When Mom and Dad and your sisters and brothers really begin to annoy you,harmless revenge may be just the way to make them quiet down for a while.The dinner table is a likely place.Just before the meal begins,throw a handful of raisins into the food.Wait about five minutes and,after everyone has begun to eat,cover your mouth with your hand and begin to make odd noises.When they ask you what the matter is, point to a raisin and yell,"Bugs!"They dump their food in the disposal,jump into the car,and head for McDonald'a.That night,you'll have your first quiet,peaceful meal in a long time.A well-planned revenge does not have to hurt anyone.The object is simply to let other people know thatthey are beginning to bother you.As a harmless revenge,you might come first and get a raise by________.A:making your colleagues come lateB:getting up earlier than your colleaguesC:destroying your colleagues' carsD:pleasing your boss

资料：Being financially secure in retirement just doesn't happen magically. It takes lots of planning, time and savings.
Some scary facts about retirement:
More than 50% of persons do not have enough finances for retirement.
25% do not participate in their company's retirement plan.
The average person spends 20 years in retirement.
Here are some tips to help you plan correctly:
1. Talk to a financial professional. Every few years, it's a good idea to schedule a meeting with a financial planner to get a “check-up”. It's just like a doctor's visit, and you should really talk about your present situation and future goals.
2. Save, save, and keep on saving. Make it a habit to save as much as you can.
3. Learn your retirement needs. Retirement can be expensive. Learn from today how much you need to save for your retirement. Talk to a financial planner, or find an online retirement calculator.
4. Take part in your employer's retirement plans. If your company offers one, it is usually the best tool you can use. Talk to a financial professional for all your options.
5. Learn about pension plans. If you have an employer or government pension plan, learn all the details.
6. Keep your retirement savings off-limits. Don't make a withdrawal until you retire. You might incur penalties and it will be a setback for realizing your goals.
7. Get your employer to start one, and it can help you tremendously.
8. Learn about your government's retirement plans. Every country has different plans, some with special tax incentives, so learn what your country offers and plan accordingly.
9. Do your own research. Use the Internet, read the newspapers and magazines, talk to your friends, to find out as much as you can about retirement.
Which of the following is NOT true about retirement?A.More than half of people don’t have enough finances for retirement.
B.quarter of people don’t take part in their company’s retirement plan.
C.No one can be financially secure in retirement.
D.The average person will spend 20 years in retirement.

How to Get Along Well With Your Boss1 Before you argue with your boss,check with the boss's secretary to determine his mood.If he ate nails for breakfast,it is not a good idea to ask him for something.Even without the boss's secretary,there are keys to timing:don't approach the boss when he's on deadline,don't go in right before lunch,when he is apt to be distracted and rushed,don't go in just before or after he has taken a vacation.2 If you're mad,that will only make your boss mad.Calm down first,and don't let a particular concern open the floodgates for all your accumulated frustration.The boss will feel that you think negatively about the company and it is hopeless trying to change your mind.Then maybe he will dismiss you.3 Terrible disputes can result when neither the employer nor the employee knows what is the problem the other wants to discuss.Sometimes the fight will go away when the issues are made clear.The employee has to get his point across clearly in order to make the boss understand it.4 Your boss has enough on his mind without your adding more.If you can't put forward an immediate solution,at least suggest how to approach the problem.People who frequently present problems without solutions to their bosses may soon find they can't get past the secretary.5 To deal effectively with a boss,it's important to consider his goals and pressures.If you can put yourself in the position of being a partner to the boss,then he will be naturally more inclined to work with you to achieve your goals.If you want to ask the boss for anything,it is important to find out first______.A:to give the boss your adviceB:how he is feelingC:the boss may haveD:what you really want to talk to him aboutE:without suggesting a way to solve it F:how unhappy you are
