Read the two passages and answer the questions. (20 points)

Passage 1

Normally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a credit. which he may count towards a degree. In many

American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for

one semester .A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while

attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester.

Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is

possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for

a student to move between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.

For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and therecord is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for participation in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. Students who advise the academic authorities usually perform the effective work of maintaining discipline. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in his career.

41. Normally a student would at least attend ______ classes each week.

A. 36  B. 20

C. 15  D. 12

42.According to the first paragraph an American student is allowed ______

A. to live in a different university

B. to take a particular course in a different university

C. to live at home and drive to classes

D. to get two degrees from two different universities

43. American university students are usually under pressure of work because ______.

A. their academic performance will affect their future careers

B. they are heavily involved in student affairs

C. they have to observe university discipline

D. they want to run for positions of authority

44. Some students are enthusiastic for positions in student organizations probably because________.

A. they hate the constant pressure strain of their study

B. they will then be able to stay longer in the university

C. such positions help them get better jobs

D. such positions are usually well paid

45.The student organizations seem to be effective in _____.

A. dealing with the academic affairs of the university

B. ensuring that the students observe university regulations

D. keeping up the students’ enthusiasm for social activities

Passage 2

Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.

During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s

true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as: “Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.

You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit

can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up

late anyway. Counteract (对抗) your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than

you want to. If our energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in

the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam (鼓

起干劲)and work better at your low point.

Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch.

Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome

search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine

work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper

hours.

46. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably________.

A. he is a lazy person

B. he refuses to follow his own energy cycle

C. he is not sure when his energy is low

D. he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening

47. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?

A. Unawareness of energy cycles.

B. Familiar monologues.

C. A change in a family member’s energy cycle.

D. Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.

48. If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should ________

A. change his energy cycle  B. overcome his laziness

C. get up earlier than usual  D. go to bed earlier

49.You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will __________.

A. help to keep your energy for the day’s work

B. help you to control your temper early in the day

C. enable you to concentrate on your routine work

D. keep your energy cycle under control all day

50.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?

A. Getting off to work wit a minimum effort helps save one’s energy.

B. Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of day.

C. Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.
