In mdern times, when fd is available in grcery stres, finding lve is mre 2 in peple’s lives. The 3 is all arund us. It is easy t prepare a list f mdern stries having t d with lve. An endless number f bks and mvies qualify as lve stries in ppular culture.
Researchers are studying whether lve, a highly valued emtinal state, can be 4 . They ask, what is lve? Tthpaste cmpanies want us t think attractin is all abut clean teeth, but clean teeth g nly s far. Scientists wnder hw much the brain gets invlved. Yu have prbably heard that ppsites attract but that 5 attract, t. One thing is certain: The truth abut lve is nt yet set in stne.
First Impressin
T help determine the 6 f attractin, researchers paired 164 cllege classmates and had them talk fr 3, 6 r 10 minutes s they culd get a sense f each ther’s individuality.

The British Medical Jurnal recently featured a strng respnse t what was judged an inapprpriately lenient reactin by a medical schl t a student cheating in an examinatin. Althugh we have insufficient reliable data abut the extent f this phenmenn, its preventin, r its effective management, much can be cncluded and acted upn n the basis f cmmn sense and cncepts with face validity.
There is general agreement that there shuld be zer tlerance f cheating in a prfessin based n trust and ne n which human lives depend. It is reasnable t assume that cheaters in medical schl will be mre likely than thers t cntinue t act dishnestly with patients, clleagues, insurers, and gvernment.
The behavirs under questin are multifactrial in rigin. There are familial, religius, and cultural values that are acquired lng befre medical schl. Fr example, cuntries, cultures, and subcultures exist where bribes and dishnest behavir are almst a nrm. There are secndary schls in which neither staff nr students tlerate cheating and thers where cheating is rampant; there are hmes which imbue yung peple with high standards f ethical behavir and thers which leave ethical training t the harmful influence f televisin and the market place.
Medical schls reflect sciety and cannt be expected t remedy all the ills f a sciety. The selectin prcess f medical students might be expected t favr candidates with integrity and psitive ethical behavir—if ne had a reliable methd fr detecting such characteristics in advance. Medical schls shuld be the majr fcus f attentin fr imbuing future dctrs with integrity and ethical sensitivity. Unfrtunately there are trubling, if incnclusive, data that suggest that during medical schl the ethical behavir f medical students des nt necessarily imprve; indeed, mral develpment may actually stp r even regress.
The creatin f a pervasive institutinal culture f integrity is essential. It is critical that the academic and clinical leaders f the institutin set a persnal example f integrity. Medical schls must make their institutinal psitin and their expectatins f students abslutely clear frm day ne. The develpment f a schl's culture f integrity requires a partnership with the students in which they play an active rle in its creatin and nurturing. Mrever, the schl's examinatin system and general treatment f students must be perceived as fair. Finally, the treatment f infractins must be firm, fair, transparent, and cnsistent.
1. What des the authr say abut cheating in medical schls?
A. Extensive research has been dne abut this phenmenn.
B. We have sufficient data t prve that preventin is feasible.
C. We are safe t cnclude that this phenmenn exists n a grand scale.
D. Reliable data abut the extent, preventin and management f the phenmenn is lacking.
2. Accrding t the authr, it is imprtant t prevent cheating in medical schls because ____________.
A. The medical prfessin is based n trust.
B. There is zer tlerance f cheating in medicine.
C. The medical prfessin depends n the gvernment.
D. Cheating exists extensively in medical schls.
3. What des the authr say abut the cause(s) f cheating?
A. Family, culture and sciety play an active part.
B. Bad schl envirnment is the leading cause f student cheating.
C. Parents are always t blame fr their children’s cheating behavir.
D. Cheating exists primarily because students learn bad things frm TV.
4. Accrding t the authr, what precautins shuld medical schls take t prevent students frm cheating?
A. Medical schls shuld establish a firm mral standard t weed ut applicants with lw integrity.
B. Medical schls shuld make effrts t remedy the ills f a sciety.
C. Medical schls shuld teach future dctrs integrity and ethical values.
D. There is nthing medical schls can d t imprve the ethical behavir f their students.
5. The authr will prbably agree with which f the fllwing statements?
A. Medical schls shuld make exams easier fr the students t alleviate the fierce cmpetitin.
B. Prminent figures in the medical institutin shuld create a set f mral standards t be applied in medical schls.
C. Medical students shuld play an active rle in the creatin and preservatin f a culture f integrity.
D. Thse students wh cheat in the exams shuld be instantly expelled frm schl.
Sectin C
Directins: Read the fllwing passage. Fill in each blank with a prper sentence given in the bx. Each sentence can be used nly nce. Nte that there are tw mre sentences than yu need.
Imagine living n the edge f a vast desert, which is mving quietly clser t yur village every day and cvering yur fields. The desert is n the mve. This is called desertificatin.
Desertificatin ccurs in regins clse t an already existing desert. __1__. The first is ver-use d water in the area. There is nt enugh water in any case, and if it is nt carefully used, disaster can fllw. As time ges n, water shrtages make farming mre and mre difficult. In sme places, lcals can remember lcal lakes and marshes which were nce the hmes fr all kinds f fish and birds. They ave been cmpletely buried by the stand nw. Farmers leave the land, and fields are replaced by deserts.
The secnd cause is misuse r ver-use f the land. __2__ Plughing large fields and remving bushes and trees means that the wind will blw away the sil. Once the sil is lst, it is hard t replace, and if there is rain, it has nwhere t g, and brings n benefit.
__3__ Every spring, the skies ver sme f eastern cities, thusands f kilmeters away frm the deserts, can be darkened by sandstrms. Dust frm deserts can have a great effect n weather systems. While desertificatin is perhaps being partly caused by glbal warming., these sandstrms can make glbal warming wrse by adding ti what is knwn as the greenhuse effect.
What can be dne t slw dwn r stp the prcess f desertificatin? A great deal f wrk is already under way. Obviusly the first steps are t find new water surces. __4__ Sme types f grass als hld the sil tgether, and stp the wind taking it. Withut these effrts, it will be harder and harder t stp the wrld’s deserts in their tracks, and mre and mre farmers will give up and head fr cities. The lessn t be learnt lies beneath the sand.

There is a saying that the schl is ging t establish a club and it will chse frm the fllwing three nes: Literature Club, Debate Club and the Prgramming Club. As a senir student f the schl I d hpe t have a literature club. My pints are as fllws :
The first and the fremst ne is that with the rapid develpment f e-related technlgy, student d have an increasing pprtunities t read all kinds f materials nline. Hwever, thse shrt-time reading are unavidably fragments frm different materials. Therefre, there must be a place that prvides cmplete materials fr fragments that students are interested in.
Furthermre, a literature club can prvide students a place t debate abut a certain tpic, fr a debate can make a cllisin f insightful views abut a certain tpic. And a certain kind f bks can prvide student a relatively free and valuable chance t read bks which are ut f textbk bundaries t braden their hrizn. Besides，It can give them a chance t find friends that have same interests.
The third ne is that the teachers can be welcmed fr guidance. Fr students knwledge and learning experiences less abundant as thse teachers, a teacher’s jining can give them a new chance t knw the materials that they are reading better. Frm the teachers’, they d need the inflw f new knwledge t replace they ut f dated ideas and make them refreshed with new cncepts, which can benefits them mre than reading.
T sum up, a literature club will be the first pririty f my wn, n matter fr the students r the teachers. It will give student a new chance t learn mre, the mre pprtunity fr teachers t view the new wrld and the freedm t cmmunicate between teachers and students.

Fr example, in ne f the mst utstanding scenes in the film, the first party scene, Nick walks quickly frm ne party guest t anther party guest trying t explain all the gssip abut Gatsby until he is finally intrduced t the man himself, while the mst stirring versin f Rhapsdy in Blue (蓝色狂想曲), which was cmpsed by American musician Gerge Gershwin in 1924, is played in the backgrund.
--- Fx News
Directr Baz Luhrmann’s main challenge was “either t find a visual equivalent(相等物) fr Fitzgerald’s elegant essay--the pen secret f the bk’s staying pwer-- r t match his wn unusual persnal strengths with the material. He tries it bth ways, with varying degrees f success.
DiCapri des a gd and prfessinal jb as the scialite(社会名流) by re-creating Fitzgerald’s descriptin f Gatsby’s charm. “He can lk at smene fr an instant and understand hw, perfectly, he r she wants t be seen. --- Time Magazine
