     Choosing the perfect college for yourself is a tough task, because there are many good
colleges out there. However, you need to take a campus(校園)tour because, the college
websites always present a rosy picture where happy faces laugh and study on lush (繁茂的)
green lawns, the libraries store the latest collection of books, and all the facilities(設(shè)施)are the
most advanced. However, the reality may be many a time different from what actually is shown
in the booklets or on the official college website. You will find a lot of information about any
college by taking a tour of its campus, and then deciding on it. Reading the following may be
of help to you.
     ● When to plan the college visit
     Prepare a list of your choice of colleges as you near your senior year in high school, and
plan the tour to these colleges soon before you start the application process. You can visit on
weekdays (Monday to Thursday), as generally during Fridays the campus is full of activities,
and you may not find anyone to interact(互動)with.
     ● Check the infrastructure(基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施)
     The first thing you will notice on a campus tour will definitely be the outer infrastructure, like
the buildings, lawns, vehicle parking facility, etc. Check if the buildings are neatly maintained
and are in a good condition. Go by your gut feeling (本能反應(yīng)). A college should have good
infrastructure; along with well-equipped libraries and comfortable classrooms. Walk around the
campus and check the inner infrastructure.
      ● Check the dormitory and cafeteria(自助餐廳)
     You should thoroughly check all the facilities in the dormitory. It is often the case that most
colleges are good as far as education is concerned, but they do not have good residential
(居住的)facilities. You can ask the students who stay on-campus about services like a laundry
room, Internet availability, etc. Visit the cafeteria, and if it's permitted, taste the food there to
understand the quality of food which has been prepared.
      ● Check the campus
     A visit to the campus gives you the actual feel of the campus life. Take a look at the campus,
is it clean and tidy, and as per your expectations(符合你的期望)? You can make out a lot
about the college by visiting it. Think about what you want from a college; is your focus more
on academics or on extra-curricular(課外的)and sporting activities? Picture how you want
your college to be and only then take the decision.
     ● Interact
     A campus visit facilitates (使容易) interaction with the students and professors, and through
this you can get to know a lot about the college. Talk to any students, and ask them about the
campus life and their experiences. Also inquire with the professors and students about the various
courses available, their level of difficulty and so on. Visiting the college is the best way to find if
the college is suitable for you.

請認真閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中，選出最佳選項.
In the debates about how a particular piece of land is to be used, the priorities often conflict. What should you do, for example, if you find out that under the fertile fields of a farming community there is a thick bed of coal which can be strip mined(露天礦) ? Strip mining tears up top soil and plants. But mining may create jobs, bring money to the towns businesses. Those who approve of strip mining say that the coal is needed, and they point out that it is quicker and cheaper to get coal from the surface than to go deep into the earth to get it by standard mining techniques. On the other hand, it takes nature 500 years to create an inch of top soil. As the countryside fills up, people are becoming more aware of the need for open space. Nearly every proposal for a new power plant, highway, or airport draws fierce opposition. Everyone wants the big, land-eating “uglies” to be in someone else’s backyard. Minneapolis and St.Paul, Minnesota, for example, have been debating about the site of a future airport for years. Yet if a new airport is needed, it will have to go somewhere.
How do we find our way out of the land-used problem? One way might be to reexamine our values, to think in new directions. Does everyone have to have a car with its need for highways and parking lots? What about developing mass transport systems that use less land? Do suburbs have to spread? Can they be designed so they use less space? Do we have to have more energy? If we do, do we really have to strip-mine coal to provide it?
However difficult they may be to arrive at, choices will have to be made if we want to preserve the beauty and usefulness of the land. For there is at least one point on which all of us can agree: The land does have its limits.
1. The word “priorities” in the sentence means ____.
? A. the various needs           B. the most important goal
? C. the number one necessity     D. the first thing to be considered
2. “…, people are becoming more aware of the need for open space. ” tells us that ____.
? A. people are thinking to develop their living space into the sky
? B. people noticed the need for unoccupied land
? C. people are struggling to get more land from the space ?
D. people are becoming more active on the space issue
3. How do we find our way out of the land use problems?
?A. One way might be to reexamine our values, to think in new directions.
B. Everyone has to have a car with its need for highways and parking lots.
?C. We have to have more energy. We need strip-mine coal to provide it.
D. We may develop mass transit systems which use less land.
4. “Everyone wants the big, land-eating ‘uglies’ to be in someone else s backyard.” shows that        .
? A. people don t want more big projects
? B. people don t want to live in the neighborhood of the big projects
? C. people regard the large construction projects are “uglies ”
? D. people don t like the undesirable building projects
5. The main idea of this article is ____.
?  A. The Limits of Land            B. Land    
C. Land and Our Life Styles      D. Land and Space

     Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not
necessary so, however, Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here's how.
     1) Plan your time carefully. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have
to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping,
dressing, etc. then decide a good, regular time for studying. Don't forget to set aside enough time for
entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is
happening to your time.
      2) Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which
may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios,
or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.
      3) Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teachers
say. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher
says.
     4) Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points
that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read
that material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
     5) Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a
subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won't end if you don't pass a test, so
don't be overly worried.
     There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many
others after you have tried these.

     A long story about people is usually called a novel. It can be about any kind of man, woman, or child.
It can be about kings, or Chicago newsboys, or housewives. The French writer, Victor Hugo, wrote his
novel Les Miserables about a poor man who stole a loaf of bread. The American writer, Ernest Hemingway,
wrote A Farewell to Arms about a young American with the Italian Army in World War One.
     A novel can tell the story of any kind of action, over any period of time. The modern Irish writer, James,
Joyce, covers less than twenty- four hours in Ulysses. Yet, Joyce takes a thousand pages to tell all that
happens from the time one man gets up in the morning until he goes to bed early the next morning. A
German writer, Herman Hesse, uses only one hundred and fifty pages in his novel Demian to cover a boy's
life from the age of ten until he becomes a young man.
     A novel does not just tell the things that people do. It also tells why they do them. The Badge of Courage,
by the American novelist, Stephen Crane, tells about a young soldier in the War between the states who runs
away the first time he is in battle. The book shows why he acted as he did. It describes his mental suffering
until he overcomes his fears. People buy novels because they enjoy reading about other people. The novel
satisfies the human desire to know and understand our fellow creatures.

     White-collar workers going to great lengths for stress relief A soldier of the South Korean special attack
corps paints his eyes during a friendly Taekwondo match at a South Korean Army Base in Pochon, north of
Seoul. Stressed out white-collar workers are scaling (攀登) skyscrapers, camping out on rooftops, smashing
up restaurants, pretending to be children and even visiting cemeteries in a bid to relieve the pressure of modern
life.
     As the country's economy continues to steam ahead, once popular forms of entertainment, such as karaoke,
card games and even boxing bars, appear to be losing their appeal.
     Consider the members of Shanghai's Cat Rain club. By day, this group of young women works executive
jobs, but by night they climb buildings so they can spend the night on the roof.
      "It's a good way to release our pressure. You feel relaxed when you're sitting on the roof, looking up to
the sky and chatting with intimate (親密的) friends," said Gong Ying, 25.
     The stress of work is not just limited to people in Shanghai.
     A recently opened restaurant in Beijing encourages customers to smash plates-as long as they are willing to
pay to replace them.
     Though there has been some debate about the extravagance (奢侈) of such services, some psychologists
say the activity reflects the desire of some white-collar workers to vent their angst.
     Some workers even appear eager to return to their childhoods. This May, hundreds of people took part in
a festival in which adults pretended to be children. It was an adults-only event, and participants could read
comics and eat sweets all day.
     Scenic places such as parks and rivers can also help people relax and put things in perspective. But a
cemetery?
     Cemetery companies in Shanghai organized visits to local graveyards for stressed-out workers in March.
The participants were taken to quiet spots in the cemetery where they could contemplate (考慮、打算) life
and their futures.
      Roof-camper Chen Bin, an IT marketing professional, said she had camped out on a rooftop about 30
times. When she's not sleeping out under the stars, she also has several other adrenalin-fueled interests, such
as downhill racing and paragliding.
      "Pressure may bring us distress, but it doesn't mean we can't find ways out," Chen says."Life should be
imaginative."
