    8．During the past Spring Festival，many children may have received red packets from their families．But Xing Pu，a 40-year-old economist，is asking the government to give red packets to every Chinese citizen．
    Xing suggested the government give out 1，000 yuan to each Chinese since the government income has increased rapidly in recent years．He said his suggestion would allow everyone to directly enjoy the fruits of the country's economic success，help the lower-income groups deal with rising prices and increase consumption（消费）around the country．
    Recent years have seen the government carry out a series of pro-poor （扶贫） and pro-rural（惠农）policies，including increasing spending on public health care and calling off the agricultural tax．But the lower-income group still needs more help while being hit hard by an 11-year high in prices and recent snowstorms．
    Xing said while making the draft，he has borrowed many ideas from practices in countries like the United States and Singapore．Earlier this year，the governments of the two nations offered cash handouts（救济）to their citizens as the result of a surplus in government income．As for in China，"We can even encourage the rich to donate their 1，000 yuan red packet to the poor，"said Xing．
    Although Xing's suggestion has gained wide support among ordinary Chinese on the Internet，many other economists criticized it as unpractical．Even Xing himself admitted he made the suggestion without any careful calculation．But they agreed with Xing's point that the growing economic pie should be shared among the people．
    "To better use the increase of money，handing out money is not a solution that holds good for all time．It could be better to improve the public service or cut the price of energy use in daily life，"said Qiao Xinsheng，an economic professor．
    25．What has the government done to help the lower-income group？B
    A．Spending less on public health care．
    B．Carrying out pro-poor policies．
    C．Handing out money to every Chinese．
    D．Increasing the agricultural tax．
    26．According to some experts，what is better than giving out money？D
    A．Supplying food to everyone every day．
    B．Increasing the government income．
    C．Controlling the rising of prices．
    D．Cutting the price of energy use in daily life．
    27．Xing Pu's ideas of giving red packets to every Chinese citizen mainly came fromA．
    A．the US and Singapore governments offering cash handouts to their citizens
    B．children receiving red packets from their families
    C．the government's increasing spending on public health care
    D．the rising prices in the country．

    9．Education is not an end，but a means to an end．In other words，we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them．Our purpose is to fit them for life．
    In some modern countries it has for some time been fashionable to think that by free education for all-whether rich or poor，clever or stupid-one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation．But we can already see that free education for all is not enough； we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees refuse to do what they think to be"low"work，and，in fact，work with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries．But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor．We can live without education，but we die if we have no food．If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses，we should get terrible diseases in our towns．
    In fact，when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life，it means that we must be educated in such a way that，firstly，each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability and，secondly，that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society，and that is very bad to be ashamed of one's work．Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society．

    33．According to the passage，the purpose of education isD．
    A．to build a perfect world 
    B．to choose a system of education
    C．to let everyone receive education fit for him 
    D．to prepare children mainly for their future work
    34．Which of the following is true according to the passage？C
    A．It's hard for university graduates to find jobs．
    B．No one would like to do work with hands．
    C．Education is not enough to build a perfect nation．
    D．University graduates are ashamed of their work．
    35．In the writer's opinion，A．
    A．all the social problems can't be solved by education
    B．free education for all probably leads to a perfect world
    C．free education won't help to solve social problems
    D．education can settle all of the world's problems．

    3．We went to the B．T Blackstone Library，not far from Lake Michigan，once a week．You could easily miss the building if you didn't know what you were looking for．But once you were inside，you could never mistake it for anything else．We passed through  two sets of heavy brass doorsto the lobby of the library．And if we turned right then，we could see an alcove with tables； this led，in turn，to a big reading room with a great and ancient globe that sat in front of the largest windows．At some time during every visit I found my way into that room to touch the globe．I liked to look at Africa，with the coded colors of the different countries like the Belgian Congo and Rhodesia，and try to remember which countries were fighting to be free just as we were struggling for civil rights．I had heard Daddy talking about the struggle，arguing with the television as someone discussed it on a news show．
    On Saturday，as I wandered through the young adult section．I saw a title：Little Women，by Louisa May Alcott．I could tell from looking at the shelf that she'd written a lot of books，but I didn't know anything about her．I had learned from experience that titles weren't everything．A book that sounded great on the shelf could be dull once you got it home，and every bad book I brought home meant one less book to read until we went back in a week．So I sat in a chair near the shelves to skim the first paragraphs：
    "Christmas won't be Christmas without any presents"grumbled Jo，lying on the rug．
    "It's so dreadful to be poor"sighed Med，looking down at her old dress．
    "I don't think it's fair for some girls to have plenty of pretty things，and other girls nothing at all"added little Amy，with an injured sniff．
    "We have got Father and Mother and each other．"said Beth contentedly from her corner．
    It was a thing I had decided on some other books to take home，because I didn't look through the rest of the section that day．I read and read and read Little Women it was time to walk home，and expect for a few essential interruptions like sleeping and eating，I wouldn't put it down until the end．Even the freedom to watch weekend television held no appeal for me in girls who could almost be like me，especially Jo．It seemed to me a shame that she wasn't Black：then our similarity would be complete．She loved to read，she loved to make up plays，she hated acting ladylike，she had a dreadful temper．I had found a kindred spirit．

    56．What can be learned about the author's father according to Paragraph 1？B
    A．He was uncomfortable discussing politics with his children．
    B．He had strong feelings about the Civil Rights movement．
    C．He didn't approve of most news covered on TV．
    D．He generally had a pessimistic world view．
    57．It can be inferred from Paragraph 2that the author is most likely to agreeD．
    A．books seem duller when read in libraries than when read at home．
    B．interesting books are often very dull in their first few paragraphs．
    C．novels are usually more interesting than nonfiction works．

    10．I used to joke that I spoke French like a 3-year-old．Until I met a French 3-year-old and couldn't keep the conversation．This was after a year of intense study，including at least two hours a day with self-instruction software and weekend classes，followed by two weeks of an immersion program at one of the top language schools in France．
    My failure was in fact quite unremarkable．Despite advertising claims，learning a foreign language is a challenging task for any adult．In the end，though，it turns out that spending a year"not learning"French may have been the best things I could have done for my 57-year-old brain．
    In the last few years．I was unable to hold a list of four grocery items in my mind．So to reassure myself that nothing was wrong，I took a cognitive assessment just before tackling French．The result wasanything but reassuring：I scored below average for my age group in nearly all of the categories，especially on the composite memory test and the visual memory test．
    After a year of struggling with the language，I retook cognitive assessment，and the results shocked me．My scores had improved，placing me above average in 7of 10categories，and average in the other three．Studying a language had been like drinking from a mental fountain of youth．
    What might explain such an improvement？Researchers at the Chinese University of Hong Kong and Northwestern Uni versity noted that the cognitive tasks involved in language study-like working memory，inductive reasoning，sound discrimination and task switching-map closely related to the areas of the brain that are most associated with declines due to aging．
    If my experience is any indication，you might be better off  by studying a language．Not only is that a far more useful and enjoyable activity than an abstract brain game，but as a reward for your efforts，you can treat yourself to a trip abroad．That's why I plan to spend the next year"not learning"Italian．

    7．Are you taking a summer vacation this year？If you are，have you already started preparing for your trip？Online，there are a large number of preparation tips available for summer travelers．While preparation advice and tips may be of assistance to you，they are often hard to go by．This is because not everyone spends vacations at the same location．
    No matter what your vacation destination is，you will need to take the climate into consideration．If you are visiting a tropical location，you will need to bring along the appropriate clothing．While you may be expecting warm and sunny weather，it is still advised that you prepare for the worst．Raincoats and an umbrella may be a great addition to your summer clothing．
    Perhaps，the most popular summer vacation destination is the beach．Each year millions of individuals and families flock to beaches．When vacationing at the beach，it is important that you bring along proper clothing and sunscreen．Many vacationers do not realize the dangers of sunbathing without sunscreen．In addition to sunscreen，you will need to make sure that you have beach towels and plenty of water on hand．
    For the most part，if you forget to bring along certain supplies you can purchase replacements．Many popular vacation destinations have inflated prices．To prevent unnecessary expenses，you are encouraged to check your luggage before you leave．In addition to the above mentioned preparation tips，you must inform friends and family of where you are going．In case something happens back home，you can easily be reached．

    21．What's the writing purpose of this passage？A
    A．give advice on how to prepare for vacation
    B．make a plan for his summer vacation
    C．share his experience about summer vacation
    D．warn readers against cheaters during vacation
    22．If you travel to a tropical country，C．
    A．you must consider the climate first
    B．you should wear shorts and T-shirts
    C．you must prepare proper clothes
    D．you should expect the sunny weather
    23．What can we learn from the passage？B
    A．vacationing at the beach is always the first option
    B．vacationers on beach are at the risk of sunburn
    C．you should drink plenty of water before going to beach
    D．you have to stay outdoors when going camping．

    The girl was assigned to look after an old man suffering from cancer whose children lived abroad．Their living conditions were not satisfactory while the old man had a lot of savings．She was expected to comfort him and keep up his spirits．Every Saturday the girl came on time to keep his company，telling him stories．When he was having an intravenous drip （静脉滴注），she would help massage his arms．The doctor found the patient much improved mentally．The old man began to involve himself actively in the medical treatment and he seldom shouted at others．
    But something that happened made the doctor uneasy and puzzled．Each time the girl left，the old man would give her some money．The doctor did nothing to interfere （干涉），unwilling to offend the old man．A month later the old man showed evident signs of decline after suffering coma （昏迷） a few times．When rescued from the latest coma，the old man told the doctor his last wish，"I have deep sympathy for the girl．Will you be kind enough to help her finish her studies？"But the doctor knew that her family was well-off and she had no difficulty pursuing her studies．Sometimes she even came to the hospital in her father's car．
    When the girl came at the weekend after the death of the old man，the doctor told her the bad news．She was very sad and burst into tears．Then she handed $ 500 to the doctor，saying，"The old man had all along thought I came to do the job because of poverty．He gave me money so that I could continue my schooling．"Now he got the answer to the puzzle．In the last period of his life，the old man found it a real pleasure to be able to help a girl badly in need．
