No one really knows.Some blame the trend on a general loosening of moral values among today's youth.Others have attributedincreased cheating to the fact that today's youth are far more pragmatic（实用主义的）than their more idealistic predecessors.Whereas in the late sixties and early seventies，students were filled with visions about changing the world，today’s students feel greatpressure to conform and succeed.In interviews with students at high schools andcolleges around the country, both young men and women said that cheating had becomeeasy.Some suggested they did it out of spite for teachers they did not respect.Others looked at it as a game.Only if they were caught, some said, would they feel guilty.“People are competitive,” said a second-yearcollege student named Anna, fromChicago.There's an underlying fear.If you don't do well, your life is going to be ruined.The pressure is not only form parents and friends but from oneself.To achieve.To succeed.It’s almost as though we have to outdo other people to achieve our own goals，Edward Wynne , a magazine editor ,blames the rise in academic dishonesty on the schools.He claims that administrators and teachers have been too hesitant to take action.Dwight Huber ,chairman of the English department at Amarillo.sees the matterdifferently, blaming the rise in cheating on the way students are evaluated.“I wouldcheat if I felt I was being cheated,” Mr.Huber said.He feels that as long as teachers gives short-answer testsrather than essay questions and rate students by the number of facts they can memorize rather than by how well they can put information together,students will try to beat the system.“The concept of cheating is based on the false assumption that the system is legitimate and there is something wrong withthe individual who are doing it,” he said.“That's too easy an answer.We've got to start looking at the system.” 26.Educators are finding that students who cheat_______.A.are not only those academically weak

Passage Three
Last week, I read a story about a 34-year-old British woman who is extremely afraid of metal forks.She's been using plastic ones for 17 years because the sound of a fork rubbing against a plate g:ives her a panic attack.Strange, right? But she's not alone.While popular phobias(恐惧症)about snakes and spiders might get all of the attention, there are a wide variety of not-so-obvious horrors that make people nervous.While some phobias might seem a bit silly, they can cause serious emotional distress.My co-worker Magda is terrified of pigeons, a phobia that is taking over her life.She won't walk in certain parts of the city and runs screaming from the subway when one of these “rats with wings” finds its way onto the platform.Another friend isdisgusted with cheese.Once I saw her run away from a slice of it.So where does anirrational fear of cheese come from?
Are phobias something we inherit from our genes or do we acquire these unusualanxieties over time?
Ever since I can remember I have been unreasonably frightened of elevators.Therewas no terrible childhood experience and I am fine with confined spaces, but something about elevators makes me nervous.And so, when my boyfriend and I found ourselvestrapped in an elevator last yearit wasn't all that bad.Nervous and inconvenient maybe, butterrifying? Not so much.Liberating yourself from a deep-seated phobia can be a long and difficult process,but sometimes it can be as simple as confronting it head on.31.The 34-year-old British woman is extremelyafraid of metal forks because
A.she has never used them before
B.she has been injured by them before
C.she couldn't bear their sound on plate
D.she is afraid that they may hurt her
32.The phrase “rats with wings”(Para.3)refers to______
A.strange birdsB.pigeons
C.devilsD.exotic rats
33.The author's fear of elevators is the result of_______
A.her phobia for no reason
B.her nervousness of being alone
C.her dislike of being in closed spaces
D.her terrible experience
34.After the fear subsided, the author realized that______
A.her boyfriend's help was important
B.she could have had a good time with her boyfriend
C.an elevator ride could be exciting
D.it was not as horrible as she had thought
35.The purpose for the author to share her experience is to_______
A.illustrate conquering a fear can be difficult
B.encourage people to overcome their fears
C.introduce what strange fears people have
D.explain why people have strange fears Passage Four
The American public's obsession with dieting has led to one of the most dangeroushealth misconceptions of all times.Many television ads, movies, magazine articles, anddiet-food product labels would have consumers believe that carbohydrates(碳水化合物)are bad for the human body and that those who eat them will quickly becomeoverweight.We are advised to avoid foods such as potatoes, rice and white bread andopt for meats and vegetables instead.Some companies promote this idea to encourageconsumers to buy their “carb-free” food products.But the truth is, the human bodyneeds carbohydrates to function properly, and a body that relies on carbohydrates but isexhausted of thisdietary element is not in good shape after all.Most foods that we consume on a daily basis like potatoes and rice are loaded withcarbohydrates.Contrary to popular belief, carbohydrates have many health benefitssome fight diseases such as high blood pressure and heart disease, and others help toprevent cancer and stroke.Cutting these foods out of your diet may deprive your bodyof the many health benefits of carbohydrates.One of the best benefits of carbohydrates is their ability to help to maintain the health of our organs, tissues, and cells.Scientific studies have shown that one type of carbohydrate called fiber reduces the risk of heart disease.Carbohydrates also contain
antioxidants(抗氧化剂), which protect the body's cells from harmful particles with thepotential to cause cancer.This does not mean that the human body can survive on a diet composed entirely ofcarbohydrates.We also need certain percentages of proteins and fats to maintain healthybodies.But carbohydrates certainly should not be avoided altogether.In fact, the foodpyramid, the recommended basis of a healthy diet, shows that a person should consumesix to eleven servings of breads and grains, as well as three to four servings each offruits and vegetablesthey take place at home.Comment 1:
Basically the choice is whether one wants to let kids to be kids.Persistent parentalinvolvement and constantly communicating to the kids on what the parents wantconsciously or unconsciously would help the kids grow up or think like the parentssooner than otherwise.Comment 2:
It also depends on the kid.Emotional and social maturityhave a lot to do withsuccess in college and in life.Some kids may have the brains and are bored by highschool, but that doesn't mean they are ready for college or the work place.Comment 3:
The article doesn't clearly define “helping,” but I understood it as actually assistingchildren in the exercises(e.g.helping them to solve a math problem)and/or reviewingtheir work for accuracy rather than simply making sure they've completed their work.Ithink the latter is more helpful than the former.I would also certainly hope that no studywould discourage parents from monitoring their children's performance!
41.The word “they”(Para.l)refers to.A.studies
B.principles
C.values
D.obligations
42.What is the main conclusion of the Robinson and Harris’s study?
A.The kids of more-involved parents improve over time.B.Parental involvement may not necessarily benefit children.C.Parental involvement works better with low-achievers.D.Schools should communicate with parents regularly.43.Comment1 suggests that
A.parents should leave their children alone
B.kids should be kids after all
C.parents may influence children's thinking
D.persistent parental involvement is a must
44.The writer of Comment 2 would probably agree that
A.high intelligence does not guarantee success

C.social maturity is sufficient to achieve success in life
D.high school is often boring in the U.S.45.Which of the following parental helps will the writer of Comment 3 consider proper?

A research group in California has released a ”national report cardon highereducation.“ The report says the price of college has increased more than four hundred percent since 1982.Costs have climbed much faster than other pricesthat new technology will eventually create as many jobs as it destroys.But futurologist Hymen Seymour says the astonishing efficiency of the new technology means there will be a simple net reduction in the amount of human labor that needs to be done.”We should treat this as an opportunity to give people more leisure.It may not be easy, but society will have to reach a new agreement on the division and distribution of labor” Seymour says.Part VII Writing(15 points)
Directions: Write a composition in no less than 150 words on the topic:A Way to Success.Read the following article in Chinese, then write according to the outline given below.Write yourcomposition on the Answer Sheet.大学毕业时，小刘决定不找工作，他默默地从事起了网络翻译工作。当时几乎没有人看好他，大家认为，大学刚毕业，最好找一个好单位，学点本领、积累点经验，然后才能有好出路。
5年时间过去了，虽然我们很多人毕业时都信誓旦旦地说，一旦在单位里学到本领，积累够经验，就出去打拼一番属于自己的事业，但大多数人在单位这个避风港里，已经失去了面对大风浪和新环境的勇气，辞职创业逐渐成了空谈。可小刘已经开了公司，成为了一名成功的企业主。
在一次同学会上，小刘说出了他的“秘密”。他说： “成功往往取决于你敢不敢往人少的地方走。这可能会有风险，但因为没人或很少有人走过，留给你的可能是硕果累累。走别人开辟的老路，虽然看起来很安全，但因为走的人太多，财富与资源大多已被人占有。即使幸运地发现了一小部分，也必然会被蜂拥而至的人群争抢与瓜分。”
1．根据以上文章写一篇读后感；
2．你如何看待小刘的成功之道；
3．关于成功你有什么经验和建议？

失业问题所造成的社会成本远非政府发放福利和失业救济就能解决。据一项联邦调查显示，失业会加剧离婚的风险，也会增加虐待儿童或酗酒等问题。有些专家声称这一问题只是暂时的---也就是说，新技术会带来失业，但也会最终创造出相应的就业机会。但是未来学家海门?赛莫说，新技术带来的非凡效率就意味着我们需要的劳动力会必然的减少。“我们应该将其视为一次享受更多休闲时光的机会。也许这一切并没那么容易接受，但社会最终会在劳动力的分类和分配方面达成协调，”赛莫如是说。
Writing(略)2014同等学力申硕英语作文范文
As is clearly shown in the story, Xiao Liu chose a different way from his classmates after graduate and got a different story.Xiao Liu succeeded finally while most of others lived in an ordinary life and loose the encouragement to face huge challenge.Nowadays the way to success has aroused immediate concern and widespread discussion among the general public.From Xiao Liu’s experience, we can draw a conclusion that sometimes choosing a road seldom chosen by other people could increase the chance of success.On one hand, it can be reasonably argued that there will be more chance if we choose a different way to work or live.If we just do as what others do, then there will not be much wealth or resources left for us to take use of.In this case, the chance to success won’t be too much.On the other hand, however, there will be risks existing the same time.The reason why seldom people choose the way may be that it is not a correct way to success, and the people who choose it may face the risk of failure.I strongly believe that we can do as what XiaoLiu does but need to estimate the risk first.In the process of my growth, I have a lot of successful experience.In my opinion, there are many factors needed for success.The first one that comes to my mind readily is that knowledge and skills.They are the basic factors and one can’t get success without them.What's more, effort and spirit of persisting are important key factors to success.No success can come easily and there are many examples that people give up in the half way.We need put all effort and stick to it then we could achieve the goal.

Loneliness has been linked to depression and other health problems.Now, a study says it can also spread.A friend of a lonely person was 52% more likely to develop feelings of loneliness.And a friend of that friend was 25% more likely to do the same.Earlier findings showed that happiness, fatness and the ability to stop smoking can also grow
like infections within social groups.The findings all come from a major health study in the American town of Framingham, Massachusetts.The study began in 1948 to investigate the causes of heart disease.Since then, more tests have been added, including measures of loneliness and depression.The new findings involved more than 5,000 people in the second generation of the Framingham Heart Study.The researchers examined friendship histories and reports of loneliness.The results established a pattern that spread as people reported fewer close friends.For example, loneliness can affect relationships between next-door neighbors.The loneliness spreads as neighbors who were close friends now spend less time together.The study also found that loneliness spreads more easily among women than men.Researchers from the University of Chicago, Harvard and the University of California, San Diego, did the study.The findings appeared last month in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.The average person is said to experience feelings of loneliness about 48 days a year.The study found that having a lonely friend can add about 17 days.But every additional friend can decrease loneliness by about 5%,or two and a half days.Lonely people become less and less trusting of others.This makes it more and more difficult for them to make friends-and more likely that society will reject them.John Cacioppo at he University of Chicago led the study.He says it is important to recognize and deal with loneliness.He says people who have been pushed to the edges of society should receive help to repair their social networks.The aim should be to aggressively create what he calls a“protective barrier” against loneliness.This barrier, he says, can keep the whole network from coming apart.31.Besides loneliness, which of the following can also spread among people? A.Friendship B.Happiness C.Depression D.Smoking
32.The Framingham Heart Study starting from 1948 ____________ A.expanded its research topics B.involved 5,000 patients of depression
C.identified loneliness as one key factor for heart disease D.examined the relationship between loneliness and depression 33.Which of the following is true about the spread of loneliness? A.It leads to a gradual loss of friends B.It is a common phenomenon among women C.it is often found in the neighborhood
D.it ruins the relationships between close friends
34.Having a lonely friend, you are more likely to___________ A.strengthen your friendship B.develop new friendship
C.increase the sense of loneliness D.reduce the sense of loneliness

California has a new program called the Digital Textbook Initiative.“Starting this fall with high school math and science.we will be the first state in the nation to provide schools with a state
-approved list of digital textbooks.”That was Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in June, talking about his effort to get schools to use materials available free online.He listed reasons why he thinks digital textbooks make sense.California approves traditional textbooks in six-year cycles.Digital one can offer the latest information.They lighten the load of school bags.They save paper and trees, and make learning more fun and interactive.And above all, he said, they help schools with their finances.The state has had to make severe cuts in school spending because of deep financial problems.More than six million students attend California public schools.Earlier this year, California invited content developers to offer digital math and science materials for high schools.These had to meet at least 90%of the state's learning requirements.Specially trained teachers examined 16 textbooks and approved ten of them.Six of the ten were published by the CK12 Foundation, a nonprofit group that had been developing digital science and math books for about two years.The foundation paid teachers and other education professionals to write and edit them.The money came from a group financed by the Khosla Family.California cannot require schools to use the digital textbooks.Individual school districts will have to decide for themselves.Susan Martimo, a California Department of Education official, says she does not expect widespread use right away.Her best guess is that some schools with a lot of technology will be the first to use them, but only in addition to their traditional books.School administrators point out that the texts may be free online, but students need a way to access them.Not everyone has a computer or electronic reader.Schools could print out copies, but that would not help the environment.Also, there is the cost to train teachers to use digital textbooks effectively.37.The Digital Textbook Initiative _______________ A.will probably take effect in six years B.covers all the high school subjects C.has been approved by all states D.is advocated by California state governor 38.The main reason for promoting digital textbooks is to ________ A.help save money B.benefit the environment

C, will first be adopted by well-equipped schools D.are certain to be approved by school districts
42.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that_________________ A.schools are reluctant to print out copies B.the use of digital textbooks is not really free C.students need to pay for computers
D.training teachers to use the textbooks is not efficient Passage Three
Doctors in Britain are warning of an obesity time bomb, when children who are already overweight grow up.So, what should we do? Exercise more? Eat less? Or both? The government feels it has to take responsibility for this expanding problem.The cheerful Mr.Pickwick, the hero of the novel by Charles Dickens, is seen in illustrations as someone who is plump(胖乎乎的)---and happy.In 18th century paintings beauty is equated with rounded bodies and soft curves.But nowadays being overweight is seen as indicating neither a cheerful character nor beauty but an increased risk of heart disease and stroke.So what do you do? Diet? Not according to England's chief medical officer, Sir Liam Donaldson.He says that physical activity is the key for reducing the risks of obesity, cancer and heart disease.And the Health Secretary John Reid even said that being inactive is as serious a risk factor in heart disease as smoking.So, having bought some cross trainers, how much exercise should you do? According to Sir Liam Donaldson, at least 30 minutes of moderate activity five days a week.Is going to the gym the answer? Luckily for those who find treadmills(跑步机)tedious, the Health Development Agency believes that physical activity that fits into people's lives may be more effective.They suggest taking the stairs rather than the lift, walking up escalators, playing active games with your children, dancing or gardening.And according to a sports psychologist, Professor Biddle, gyms are not making the nation fit, and may even cause harm.There's new scientific evidence that too much exercise may actually be bad for you.Scientists at the University of Ulster have found that unaccustomed exercise releases dangerous free radicals that can adversely affect normal function in unfit people.The only people who should push their bodies to that level of exercise on a regular basis are trained athletes.So, should we forget about gyms and follow some experts' advice to increase exercise in our daily life? After all, getting off the bus a stop early and walking the rest of the way can't do any harm!One final thought.How come past generations lacked gym facilities but were leaner and fitter than people today? 43.This passage is mainly about ______________ A.how to keep fit and avoid fatness B.increased risks for overweight people C.the dangers of exercise in the gym D.the benefit of a balanced diet
44.What dose “this expanding problem”(Para 1)refer to? A.The slow growing up of overweight children B, The obesity time bomb warned of by doctors.C.To little exercise and too much diet.D.Neglect of the health issue by the government
45.Why dose the author mention Mr.Pickwick in Charles Dickens' novel? A.He was portrayed in an 18th century painting B.He is the hero of a world famous novel.C, He suffered from heart disease and stroke.D.He is the image of being plump and happy
46.According to Sir Liam Donaldson, what is the best way to avoid obesity? A.Being on diet B.Giving up smoking.C.Being as inactive as possible.D.Doing physical activities.47.Which of the following is NOT recommended by the Health Development Agency? A.Walking up escalators, dancing or gardening B.Going to the gym to walk on treadmills C.Taking the stairs rather than the lift.D.Playing active games with your children.48.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ____________________ A.too much exercise may actually be bad for health B.experts' advice cannot be always followed.C.past generations longed for gym facilities we have today D.moderate daily-life exercise can make us leaner and fitter Passage Four
A metaphor is a poetic device that deals with comparison.It compares similar qualities of two dissimilar objects.With a simple metaphor, one object becomes the other.Love is a rose.Although this does not sound like a particularly rich image, a metaphor can communicate so much about a particular image that poets use them more than any other type of figurative language.The reason for this is that poets compose their poetry to express what they are experiencing emotionally at that moment.Consequently, what the poet imagines love to be may or may not be our perception of love.Therefore, the poet's job is to enable us to experience it, to feel it the same way as the poet does.Let's analyze this remarkably unsophisticated metaphor concerning love and the rose to see what it offers.Because the poet uses a comparison with a rose , first we muse examine the characteristics of that flower.A rose is spectacular in its beauty, its petals(花圈)are nicely soft, and its smell is pleasing.It's possible to say that a rose is actually a feast to the senses of sight, touch, and smell.The rose's appearance seems to border on perfection, each petal seemingly symmetrical in form.Isn't this the way one's love should be.A loved one should be a delight to one's senses and seem perfect.However, there is another dimension added to the comparison by using a rose.Roses have thorns.The poet wants to convey the idea that roses can be tricky.So can love, the metaphor tells us.When one reaches out with absolute trust to touch the object of his or her affection, ouch, a thorn can cause great harm!“Be careful,” the metaphor warns : Love is a feast to the senses ,but it can overwhelm us, and it can also hurt us and cause acute suffering.This is the poet's perception of love---an admonition(劝诫).What is the point? Just this: It took almost 14 sentences to clarify what a simple metaphor communicates in only four words'.That is the artistry and the joy of the simple metaphor.49.According to the passage, what is a metaphor?
A.A comparison between two different objects with similar features B.A contrast between two different things to create a vivid image.C.A description of two similar objects in a poetic way.D.A literary device specially employed in poetry writing.50.The main idea of this passage is that ________________ A.rose is a good image in poetry B.Love is sweet and pleasing C.metaphor is ambiguous D.metaphor is a great poetic device 51.It can be inferred from the passage that a metaphor is ______________ A.difficult to understand B.rich in meaning C.not precise enough D.like a flower
52.As is meant by the author, thorns of a rose ____________ A.protect the rose form harm B.symbolize reduced love C.add a new element to the image of love D.represent objects of one's affection 53.The meaning of the love-is-a-rose metaphor is that____________ A.love is a true joy B.true love comes once in a lifetime
C.love does not last long D.love is both good and bad experiences 54.According to the passage, poetry is intended to ___________ A.release anger B.entertain the readers C.express poets' ideas D.reward the senses Passage Five
Some 23 million additional U.S.residents are expected to become more regular users of the U.S.health care system in the next several years, thanks to the passage of health care reform.Digitizing medical data has been promoted as one way to help the already burdened system manage the surge in patients.But putting people's health information in databases and online is going to do more than simply reduce redundancies.It is already shifting the every way we seek and receive health care.“The social dynamics of care are changing,“ says John Gomez, vice president of Eclipsys, a medical information technology company.Most patients might not yet be willing to share their latest CT scan images over Facebook, he notes, but many parents post their babies' ultrasound images, and countless patients nowadays use social networking sites to share information about conditions, treatments and doctors.With greater access to individualized health information----whether that is through a formal electronic medical record，a self-created personal health record or a quick instant-messaging session with a physician-----the traditional roles of doctors and patients are undergoing a rapid transition.“For as long as we've known, health care has been 'I go to the physician, and they tell me what to do, and I do it,”says Nitu Kashyap, a physician and research fellow at the Yale Center For Medical Informatics.Soon more patients will be arriving at a hospital or doctor's office having reviewed their own record, latest test results and recommended articles about their health concerns.And even more individuals will be able to skip that visit altogether, instead sending a text message or e-mail to their care provider or consulting a personal health record or smart-phone application to answer their questions.These changes will be strengthened by the nationwide shift to electronic medical records, which has already begun.Although the majority of U.S.hospitals and doctor's offices are still struggle to start the changeover, many patients already have electronic medical records-and some even have partial access to them.The My Chart program, in use at Cleveland Clinic, the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas and other facilities, is a Web portal(门户)through which patients can see basic medical information as well as some test results.Medical data is getting a new digital life, and it is jump-starting a “fundamental change in how care is provided,” Gomez says.55.Which of the following is the best title for this passage? A.The Future of Your Medical Data B.Challenges Against Doctors and Hospital C.Benefits of the U.S.Healthy Care Reform D.How to Access and Share Your Health Information 56.Putting patient information in databases and online A.enables more Americans to join the health care system B.contributes to the passage of health care reform C.increases the burden of the U.S.health care system D.changes how people seek and receive health care
57.According to John Gomez, many patients use social networking sites to A.change their social interactions B.post their latest CT scan images C.share information about their health care D.show their babies' recent pictures 58.Which of the following is NOT changing the traditional roles of doctors and patients? A.A formal electronic medical record B.An easier access to information online C.A self-created personal health record D.A quick instant-messaging session with a doctor 59.According to Nitu Kashyap, more patients in the future will A.refuse to follow their doctors' advice B.be more dependent on their doctors C.leave out their visit to doctors' offices and hospitals D.have their health conditions examined through e-mail 60.It is stated in the passage that ______________ A.nationwide digitalization of medical data will begin soon B.most of U.S.hospitals and doctors are against the shift
C.patients are worried about the security of their health information D.patients are staring to make use of their electronic medical records Part IV Close(15 minutes, 15 points, 1 for each)

英国史学家卡莱尔经过多年的伏案，写成了《法国大革命史》的全部文稿。那时候没有电脑，一切都得用手来完成，而且难得有”备份"。来卡尔写完后的第一件事，就是将它交给最信任的好友米尔去完善。
然而，就在第二天手稿被米尔家的女佣当作废纸丢进了火炉！而且，更糟糕的是，为了保持书房的整洁，卡莱尔每写完一章，随手把原来的笔记、手稿撕碎。可以想象卡莱尔当时的心情，但他很快就平静下来，反而安慰伤心地米尔：“没关系，就当我作文交给老师批阅，老师说„这篇不行，重写一次吧，你可以写的更好‟！”
卡莱尔再起炉灶，才重写这部巨著。如今人们读到的《法国大革命史》，就是他的第二 稿。这一稿的质量，无论文字还是内涵上，都达到了卡莱尔写作的巅峰。

Many people start relationships because of loneliness.Loneliness and being alone are not synonymous.Loneliness is a state of painful isolation, of feeling cut off from friends and family.Being alone, a state of solitude(独处), can be quite
新东方在线在职硕士频道(http://shuoshi.koolearn.com/zzlk/)分享
desirable most of the time, since it allows us to work, study, live, or reflect on the world around us.Solitude is usually a matter of choice;loneliness is not.Lonely people tend to spend a lot of time by themselves, eat dinner alone, spend weekends alone, and participate in few if only any social activities.They are unlikely to date.Some lonely people report having many friends, but a closer look suggests that these “friendships” are shallow.Lonely people are unlikely to share confidences.Loneliness tends to peak during adolescence(青春期).This is when most young people begin to replace family ties with peer relationships.Loneliness is quite often connected with feeling of depression and with a feeling of being “sick at heart”.Loneliness is even reported among some married people.In one of the recent studies, lonely wives tended to feel less liking and love for their partners and expressed less satisfaction with their married life.Lonely husbands reported less liking for their wives and less intimacy in their relationship.11.The topic of the first paragraph is.A.isolation and pain

Questions 16-20 are based on the following passage:
Passage Two
Now, one biggest summertime question has been answered: Why do people look so much better in sunglasses? Vanessa Brown, a senior lecturer of art and design at Nottingham Trent University, gave an inside look into the connection between shades and sex appeal.According to Brown, sunglasses do a wide variety of positive things.They make up for any asymmetries(不对称), which relates directly to research proving that symmetrical faces are the most attractive ones.If you put on a pair of sunglasses, the lenses will instantly create a perfectly symmetrical face.Sunglasses also create the appearance of a defined bone structure on top of a relatively soft face.Additionally, people often form quick judgments about others by looking into their eyes.Through eye contact, we can determine someone’s confidence, sincerity and intelligence.If those eyes are shielded, though a person is automatically unreadable.We take them for granted today, but sunglasses are a relatively modern everyday accessory(饰件).Sales started to pick up in the 1920s, but they didn’t
新东方在线在职硕士频道(http://shuoshi.koolearn.com/zzlk/)分享
become commonplace until about two decades after that.In their early days sunglasses were primarily used during risky water and snow sports, and were also associated with new technologies like airplane travel, which made them seem “daring and thoroughly modern”.Later, Hollywood stars of the 1950s and 60s started wearing sunglasses to defend themselves from being recognized by the public or harassed by paparazzi(狗仔队).Movie stars’ adoption of the accessory strengthened the link between sunglasses and appeal.16.Sunglass makes us look appearing by _____.A.covering our tiredness

C.protecting our eyes
D.improving our facial appearance
17.According to Paragraph 3, people in sunglasses would look_____.A.smart B.mysterious C.proud D.confident

Questions 21-25 are based on the following passage:
Passage Three
A cup of tea is almost a symbol of British culture.As a nation, we are well known for our strong liking for this particular hot drink, especially if it is accompanied by some cake or biscuits.Here are some facts about tea drinking habits in the UK.新东方在线在职硕士频道(http://shuoshi.koolearn.com/zzlk/)分享
1)There is no real tea time
All around the world, everyone thinks that British people drink tea every day at 5 o’clock in the afternoon.In reality, we drink tea at every hour of the day, from the minute we get up to the last thing before going to bed.Of course it’s quite likely that a British person will drink tea around the middle of the afternoon, but it’s also common to drink it with breakfast.2)The perfect partner : scones
Scones are a simple kind of cake, slightly sweet and usually served with jam and cream.They are excellent with tea.In fact, if you order a “cream tea” in the UK, you’ll get a teapot accompanied by a plateful of these little treats.Delicious!
3)Milk in tea
British people nearly always put milk in their tea.This seems strange to people from other European countries, who would rather drink their tea without adding anything to it.In British, people add a certain quantity of milk depending on taste and the tea ends up being opaque(不透明)and brown instead of clear.People are always shocked when I say that I prefer coffee to tea.Tea really is part of our cultural identity, whether we like it or not!

A small hope sustains you for a day, a great one for a lifetime.
