14.Beginning college is exciting:new ideas to explore,new challenges to be met and many decisions to be made;your future begins here.
However,you will find college life is different from your previous school environment.Many of us can be easily defeated by the details of running a well-balanced life.While some of us may have the know-how,I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of others who have walked the college halls before you.
The following you may find useful about life on campus:
•Plan well.There are so many new things to do at a new college or university.Give yourself time to make new friends and became familiar with the campus,but don't forget why you are there.Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely.
•If you don't have a"system"for planning your time now (like a day timer,a potable data book),get one.Most of all,don't depend on your memory.
•Don't miss the guidelines.The restrictions,rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student's handbook.Consider them well-balanced food for thought.What dates are important?What pieces of paper need to be handed in?What can/can't you do in your student residence (住处)?Who has the right for what?What do you need to complete to graduate?
•Write the word"STUDY"on the walls of your bedroom and bathroom,and maybe it will help to write it on a piece of paper and stick it on the telephone,TV and the kitchen table.Consider this-you are paying thousands of dollars for your course.You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course.
•Build your identity.This is the time for you to decide what to do and what not to do.Take as much time as you need to explore new ideas.Do not be afraid of the beyond.This is learning to make good choices.

29.What is the main purpose of the passage?D
A.To explain why college life is exciting.
B.To persuade you to go to college.
C.To describe the importance of college life.
D.To offer advice on college life.
30.According to the passage,why is it exciting to begin college life?D
A.Because you will learn a lot of knowledge.
B.Because you will no longer be afraid of challenges.
C.Because you will make important decisions.
D.Because you get yourself prepared for your future career and life there.
31.The underlined word"know-how"refers toC.
A.an understanding of college regulations.
B.a brand-new environment.
C.practical knowledge concerning college life.

B.college students should spend as much time as possible on social activities.
C.college students needn't learn from those who went to college before them.
D.college students don't need to pay if they repeat or replace a course.

15.No one can deny that buttons are an important device.Whenever we see a button,we are eager to press it because we know something will happen.This is true in most cases,for example on a doorbell and on the"on/off"button on the TV.But some buttons are actually fake,like the"close"button on a lift.
Many people are in the habit of pressing the"close"button because they don't have the patience to wait for the lift doors to shut.But lifts'"close"buttons are a complete scam (骗局),at least in the US-the doors will not close any faster no matter how hard you press.
It started in the 1990s when the Americans with Disabilities Act was passed in the US,making sure that all lifts stayed open long enough so that people with disabilities could enter.Only US firefighters and repairmen can use the buttons to speed up the door-closing process if they have a code or special keys.
But to normal lift riders,the buttons aren't completely useless.According to psychologists,fake buttons can actually make you feel better by offering you a sense of control.
"Perceived (能够感知的) control is very important.It reduces stress and increases well-being,"Ellen J.Langer,a psychology professor,said,"having a lack of control is associated with depression."
Experts have revealed that a lot of buttons that don't do anything exist in our lives for this same purpose.For example,many offices in the US have fake thermostats (温度调节器) because people tend to feel better when they think they can control the temperature in their workspace.
But psychologists found it interesting that even when people are aware of these little"white lies",they still continue to push fake buttons because as long as the doors eventually close,it is considered to be worth the effort.
"That habit is here to stay,"John Kounios,a psychology professor,said."Even though I have real doubts about the traffic light buttons,I always press them.After all,I've got nothing else to do while waiting.So why not press the button in the hope that this one will work?"

25.What was the author's main purpose in writing the article?D
A.To explore people's different habits when it comes to pushing buttons.
B.To describe some different kinds of fake buttons.
C.To explain the advantages and disadvantages of fake buttons.
D.To analyze the functions of fake buttons.
26.In America,the"close"buttons on liftsA.
A.are fake for the convenience of disabled people
B.work only when people press them hard for a while
C.were specially designed to give people a sense of control
D.cannot speed up the process of closing the door in any case
27.The underlined part"for this same purpose"in Paragraph 6 refers toB.
A.making people more patient              
B.giving people perceived control
C.helping people to build up confidence      
D.making people with depression feel better
28.According to John Kounios,people who press fake buttonsC.
A.should give up this habit
B.consider what they do to be meaningless
C.probably do so to kill time
D.don't know that what they press is fake.

12.What's life like on a deserted island?Senator(参议员) Jeff Flake of Arizona decided to find out.
The adventurous senator took a vacation from Capitol Hill and went on a four-day Robinson Crusoe style holiday with his two teenage sons to a remote,uninhabited island in the North Pacific Ocean.
The senator and his sons,15-year-old Tanner and 13-year-old Dallin,traveled 5,200miles from Phoenix,Arizona to the island of Biggarenn.They didn't carry any food or water.
The island is part of the Marshall Islands.It offered no basic facilities,so the Flakes had to catch and cook their own food and purify their water.Their diet was made up of coconuts,crab and fish.They captured the crab and fish themselves and cooked the food over an open fire started with a magnifying glass(放大镜).
The Flakes brought along a lobster(龙虾) trap in hopes of having some delicious treats,but lost it within the first few hours after it was attacked by a shark.They also carried two pumps to remove salt from ocean water.It took them hours each night pumping for just a few gallons of fresh water.
One of the most memorable moments of the trip,the father said,was when he and his 15-year-old son were chased by sharks after spearing(叉) a fish in the ocean.
Still,it was quite an enjoyable holiday for the senator."For a dad it was a wonderful thing.No video games around,no television,no distractions,no texting,"Flake recalled.

41.What's a Robinson Crusoe style holiday like?D
A.People take the holiday to avoid modern entertainment.
B.People go on an adventurous sailing like Robinson Crusoe.
C.People take the holiday to learn to be a skillful fisherman.
D.People take the holiday on a place without any basic living facilities.
42.Where did the Flakes take their holiday?B
A.On a hill.
B.On an island.
C.In the ocean.
D.In a desert.
43.They might have had all the things EXCEPTD.
A.coconuts
B.crab
C.fish
D.lobster
44.What kind of water did they drink?A
A.The purified sea water.
B.Water from the river.
C.The running water nearby.
D.Water they brought from home.
45.What was probably the most difficult period for the Flakes during the holiday?C
A.Being unable to make a fire.
B.Being unable to get fresh water.
C.Being chased by sharks.
D.Being unable to meet people.
