The unique features of colleges and universities in the US.a(chǎn)re hardly shared by their competitors in Europe or Asia.Many foreign students are attracted not only to the academic programs at a particular US college but also to the larger community,which affords the chance for them to absorb the surrounding culture.Clubs,sports teams,student publications and drama societies (41)Fcolorful and enjoyable American campus life.However,few foreign universities put much emphasis on this."In people's minds,the campus and the American university are both admirable,"says Brown University President Vartan Gregorian.In America,people have a strong (42)Athat a student's daily life is as important as his learning experience."
    Foreign students also come in search of (43)C.America's menu of opinions---research universities,state institutions,private liberal-arts schools,community colleges,religious institutions---is (44)I.No any single Europeans country can offer such variety."In Europe,"says history professor Jonathan Steinberg,who has taught at both Harvard and Cambridge,there is only one system,and that is it."From the beginning,students overseas usually are required to (45)Gprofessional skills in a specific field,whether law or philosophy or Chemistry.Most American universities insist that students have a(n)(46)Eon natural and social sciences,languages and literature before choosing a field of concentration.
         Such (47)Jphilosophies grow out of different traditions and power structures.In Europe and Japan,universities are (48)Konly to a ministry of education,which sets academic standards and provides money.

分析 本文主要寫了美國(guó)校園重視集體生活,比如俱樂部、運(yùn)動(dòng)隊(duì)、學(xué)生刊物以及戲劇社團(tuán).美國(guó)學(xué)生平日生活和他們的學(xué)習(xí)經(jīng)歷同等重要,美國(guó)各類學(xué)校應(yīng)有盡有,選擇空間很大.

解答 41.F 考查謂語,根據(jù)句意:俱樂部,運(yùn)動(dòng)隊(duì),學(xué)生刊物和戲劇社團(tuán)描繪多彩多姿的美國(guó)校園生活,分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知主語是Clubs,sports teams,student publications and drama societies 要填的是謂語動(dòng)詞"描繪…的特征",所以選F.
42.A 考查名詞,根據(jù)句意:在美國(guó),人們又一個(gè)非常堅(jiān)決的信仰那就是學(xué)生的日常生活與他們的學(xué)習(xí)經(jīng)歷是一樣重要的,分析句子可知that a student's daily life is as important as his learning experience是一個(gè)同位語從句,所以答案選名詞belief.
43.C 考查上下文理解,根據(jù)下文羅列的America's menu of opinions---research universities,state institutions,private liberal-arts schools,community colleges,religious institutions,可見美國(guó)的各類學(xué)校都有選擇的空間很大,所以答案選choices.
44.I 考查形容詞,分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)這是一個(gè)主系表結(jié)構(gòu)的句子主語是America's menu of opinions研究型大學(xué)、政府機(jī)構(gòu)、私立文理學(xué)院,通信都是舉世無雙的,無可匹敵的"incomparable",所以答案選I.
45.G  考查動(dòng)詞,根據(jù)句意:開始的時(shí)候海外的學(xué)生通常被要求在特定領(lǐng)域展示專業(yè)技能,demonstrate動(dòng)詞"展示,證明",所以答案選G.
46.E  考查名詞,根據(jù)句意:很多美國(guó)的大學(xué)堅(jiān)持讓學(xué)生在自然和社會(huì)科學(xué)、語言和文化領(lǐng)域都有嘗試,try是名詞"嘗試",所以答案選E.
47.J 考查形容詞,根據(jù)句意:這種對(duì)立的哲學(xué)成長(zhǎng)出不同的傳統(tǒng)和權(quán)力結(jié)構(gòu),這里用形容詞opposing修飾名詞philosophies,所以答案選J.
48.K 考查形容詞,根據(jù)句意:在歐洲和日本,大學(xué)只負(fù)責(zé)一個(gè)教育部,本句缺表語,responsible形容詞"負(fù)責(zé)的"在句中做表語,所以答案選K.
49.H  考查動(dòng)詞,集權(quán)化很有可能確保所有的學(xué)生都有大致相同的資源和大致相同水平的執(zhí)行,ensure是動(dòng)詞"確保",所以答案選H.
50.B 考查動(dòng)詞,根據(jù)句意:它也有可能阻止測(cè)試不同的想法,discourage動(dòng)詞"阻止,使氣餒",所以答案選B.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 選詞填空主要是完形填空題和所給詞的形式填空,做這類題,有些是固定搭配,有的是固定句式,還有的是聯(lián)系上下文猜測(cè)代詞所指的內(nèi)容和生 詞的含義,你必須知道每個(gè)詞的意思,從句意和語法兩方面 思考界定.還有一些是易混淆的近義詞組,務(wù)必弄清楚各個(gè)詞組的含義.

11.Virginia is set to begin enforcing the toughest drunken-driving punishment,one that will require thousands of first-time offenders-whether they were highly drunk or slightly over the limit-to install (安裝) in their cars blood-alcohol testing devices that can lock the ignition.The devices work like this-A driver must blow into a blood alcohol device linked to the car's ignition.If the result is higher than the legal limit,the car will not start.The device also requires random"rolling retests"once the driver is on the road.
Virginia's current law requires only repeat drunken-driving offenders or those with a blood alcohol level of 0.15or higher to have an ignition interlock device in their car.
The new law,which takes effect in July,will roughly increase the number of people required to use ignition interlock devices four times,and offenders will have to pay about﹩480 for a typical six-month installation.
The measure has caused a debate between groups battling drunken driving and those representing offenders.Such groups as Mothers Against Drunk Driving and the Washington Regional Alcohol Program say that Virginia's 274 alcohol-related road deaths and more than 5,500 injuries in 2010 remained unacceptably high despite years of cracking down on drunken driving.Ignition interlock devices,they say,reduce repeat offenses.But some public defenders and lawyers argue that the devices are too severe a punishment for offenders at the legal blood alcohol limit of 0.08,and that the court system will be burdened by more cases going to trial and lower-income drivers will be affected by the fees.
Del.Sal R.Iaquinto,who sponsored the bill,had a simple reply for concerns about the costs of the interlock devices:"How much does a life cost?""Blowing into a tube for six months,you will remember that,"Iaquinto said."And you?re not likely to offend again."

61.The ignition probably refers to the part in a car where.D
A.the alarm goes off  B.the car is fueled
C.the key is placed   D.the engine starts
62.Who are required to install the blood  alcohol devices according to the current law?A
A.The repeat drunken-driving offenders.
B.The first time drunken-driving offenders.
C.Drivers whose blood alcohol level is below 0.15.
D.The drivers who are not able to pay offence fees.
63.Some groups support the new law becauseB.
A.the government can be financed to build roads
B.some traffic deaths and injuries may be avoided
C.lower-income drivers will not afford to drink again
D.the court system is forced to work more effectively
64.The debate aroused by the measure suggests thatC.
A.justice has long arms
B.punishment is the key to all
C.no law is absolutely perfect
D.prevention is better than cure
65.According to Del.Sal R.Iaquinto,the new law isB.
A.severe  B.workable  C.unpractical  D.flexible.

Sin City:The hard Goodbye by Frank Miller
I probably have read this comic book 30times.I can easily say that Marv is my favorite comic book character.He is violent with a heart of gold.This story is so well written.As I was reading Marv getting closer to the truth about who was trying to frame (陷害) him,it was like watching a movie.The pace of the story was amazing and I really can not take my eyes off.
Akira by Katsuhiro Otomo
I saw the movie years before I could read the original work.After reading the original work,I realized that though the movie is great,the comic book is far better!In the comic book,it goes deeper into the Tetsuo character development and tells a lot more about the lady Mariko whom we barely see in the movie.My brother,who is not even a comic book reader,has read this 2500-page series twice.
The Ultimate Spider-Man by Mark Bagley and Michael Bendis
I was not even born when Spider-Man started making his first web.So Mark Bagley decided to revisit the web slinger for their younger audience.Michael Bendis did an amazing rewrite of the web slinger.In the rewritten version,Peter Parker didn't grow up in the 1960s but born in the 21st century.And let me tell you,there is no rest for the Spider-Man in that comic book as he is fighting all his classic foes (敵人).
Watchmen by Dave Gibbons and Alan Moore
Who is watching the watchmen?I love this line.The story takes place years after the watchmen used to watch over society.An old man is murdered.We learn shortly that he is a member of the watchmen.Rorchach thinks it is a conspiracy (陰謀) and that all the ex-members of the watchmen are in danger.But who is behind the conspiracy?

32.If you want to read a story about a violent but kind-hearted man,you should readB.
A.The Ultimate Spider-Man      
B.Sin City:The hard Goodbye
C.Watchmen                  
D.Akira
33.What did the writer realize after reading the original work of Akira?D
A.The story isn't good enough to make a good movie.
