Last month ,studenrs from 103 universities in 88 coontries took part in international computer programming contest. The Battle of the Brain took place in Harbin, China. Three---person terms from each school had hours to solve eleven real world problems.

Jerry Cain coached the team from Standford University in Palo Alto,California. He says the problems involved, among other things, paperweights, robots, castles and lakes.

JERRY CAIN: “One of the programming problems was trying to figure out how to break an chocolate bar into a certain number of pieces of a certain number of sizes and to do it as quickly as possible. And that’s probably the simplest of all them.”

The students first listed the problems in order of difficulty and then they wrote the needed software systems. They designed ways to test their solutions.

Contest spokenman Doug Heintzman says the world champions receive prizes and scholarships. They are also guaranteed an offer of employment or practice period with IBM. “We’re had past world champions that IBM has given a post to in our Zurich research Iaboratory and they are now working on some of the Ieading edge materials in science and physics.

California is the most populous state in the United States, and the third largest by land area, after Alaska and Texas. California is located on the West Coast of the United States, bordered by Oregon to the north, Nevada to the northeast, Arizona to the southeast, the Mexican state of Baja California to the south, and the Pacific Ocean to the west. Its four largest cities are Los Angeles, San Diego, San Jose, and San Francisco. The state is home to the nation’s second and sixth largest census statistical areas as well as eight of the nation’s fifty most populous cities. California has a varied climate and geography, and a diverse population.

California’s geography ranges from the Pacific coast to the Sierra Nevada mountain range in the east, to Mojave desert areas in the southeast and the Redwood — Douglas fir forests of the northwest. The center of the state is dominated by the Central Valley, one of the most productive agricultural areas in the world. California is the most geographically diverse state in the nation, and contains the highest (Mount Whitney) and lowest (Death Valley) points in the contiguous United States. Almost 40% of California is forested, a high amount for a relatively arid state.

Beginning in the late 18th century, the area known as Alta California was colonized by the Spanish Empire. In 1821, Mexico, including Alta California, became the First Mexican Empire, beginning as a monarchy, before shifting to a republic. In 1846 a group of American settlers in Sonoma declared the independence of a California Republic. As a result of the Mexican-American War, Mexico ceded California to the United States. It became the 31st state admitted to the union on September 9, 1850.

In the 19th century, the California Gold Rush brought about dramatic social, economic, and demographic change in California, with a large influx of people and an economic boom that caused San Francisco to grow from a hamlet of tents to a world-renowned boomtown. Key developments in the early 20th century included the emergence of Los Angeles as center of the American entertainment industry, and the growth of a large, state-wide tourism sector. In addition to California’s prosperous agricultural industry, other important contributors to the economy include aerospace, petroleum, and information technology. If California were a country, it would rank among the ten largest economies in the world, with a GDP similar to that of Italy. It would be the 35th most populous country.

46. Which of the following is TRUE about California?

A. The population in California is larger than that in any other state in the US.

B. A state of Mexico lies to the southeast of California.

C. Eight biggest cities in California are among the most developed ones in North America.

D. Few races of people live in California except the white and black people.

47. What is the second paragraph mainly about?

A. California’s culture                                   B. California’s history

C. California’s location                                  D. California’s geography

48. How did the United States admit California as its 31st state?

A. By occupying the land.                       B. By colonizing the land.

C. By winning a war against Mexico.              D. By offering aids to Mexico.

49. Why did San Francisco grow from a hamlet of tents to a world-famous boomtown?

A. Because it became the center of the American entertainment industry.

B. Because it had the best growth of a large, state-wide tourism.

C. Because a large number of people rushed there in search of gold.

D. Because it developed many such important contributors to economy as IT.

50. What if California were a country?

A. It would be richer than Italy, a European country.

B. It would be one of the ten richest countries.

C. Its population would be larger than that of 34 countries.

D. It would have a better economy than it has now.

.

Section B

Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.

I am a good mother to three children. I have tried never to let my profession stand in the way of being a good parent.

I no longer consider myself the center of universe. I show up. I listen. I try to laugh. I was  a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make marriage vows(誓約)mean what they say. I am a good friend to my friends, and they to me. Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.

So here’s what I wanted to tell you today: Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion, the bigger paycheck, the larger house.

Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love, and who loves you. And remember that love is not leisure, it is work. Pick up the phone. Send an e-mail. Write a letter. And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking for granted.

It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours, and our minutes. It is so easy to exist instead of to live. I learned to live many years ago. Something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what, today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all.

I learned to love the journey, not the destination. I learned to look at all the good in the world and try to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally. And I tried to do that, in part, by telling others what I had learned.

65. How did the writer form her view of life?

   A. Through social experience             B. By learning from her friends

   C. Through an unfortunate experience      D. From her children and husband

66. The sentence “It is so easy to exist instead of to live.” means that people tend to _________.

   A. waste a lot in life                    B. work rather than enjoy life

   C. make a living rather live a real life      D. forget the most important lessons in life

67. It can be inferred from the passage that_________.

   A. The author likes travelling very much      

B. The author did not try her best to work well

   C. The author spent all her time caring for children 

D. the author is a success in personal life

68. The best title for this passage probably is______.

   A. Love your friends                   B. Live a real life

   C. Don’t waste time                    D. Be a good wife and mother
