In my family, it was just another step toward the American dream. As soon as I graduated, I enrolled (入学)in the English Department of Colorado State University. I went on to earn two scholarships, and membership in the National Honor Society. I truly believed the hard work was worth it.It wasn't until a few months ago that I realized how clueless I was. I had been combing through the classifieds when my eyes fell upon my dream job: “National College Magazine looking for writers ”.Thrilled, I spent the weekend composing a resume . Needless to say, I was stunned when the interviewer barely took one glance before throwing it aside."No experience," he said flatly.I felt like screaming, "What do you mean, no experience? Look at these grades."I was left to absorb the shock of rejection, thinking that nobody ever told me that a 4. 0 student would be turned down for a job.Didn't all of my hard work count for anything?I see plenty of demands for two years of experience at a print publication, but none requiring extensive knowledge of how to write academic papers. Yet 95% of my energy in school went toward the latter, leaving me little time to devote to anything else. If career preparation is supposed to be the point of college, then why isn't it the focus?Has a college degree just become another societal status symbol like fancy cars or designer clothes?Given my experience, I feel that a college degree would be a lot more valuable if students were required to get some outside experience to supplement their in — class knowledge. Instead of requiring four science classes, why not three science classes and an internship? In my college career, I took one class that taught me how to write and submit essays for publication. This ever — so — brief taste of the real world was like holding an ice cream sundae in front of a child and only giving her a small bite.1．Why did the author study so hard at college?A．To maintain a family tradition. B．To land an ideal job.C．To fulfill parents' expectations. D．To win scholarships for the tution2．What accounted for the author's failure in job hunting?A．His dull resume. B．His misjudgment in high scores.C．His lack of experience. D．His poor performance in the interview.3．What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph imply?A．Academic writing is a small part of college life.B．College education always covers unimportant things.C．Competition in college is not as fierce as that in the real world.D．The author feels held back by his lack of real — world experience.4．What does the author want to tell us by writing this article?A．Get a college degree and you will go far.B．College students should make the best of their time.C．Career preparation is a necessity for college education.D．Landing a successful career is better than a college degree. BAlthough it has been indicated in recent years that plants are capable of seeing, hearing and smelling, they are still usually thought of as silent. But now, for the first time, Itzhak Khait and his colleagues at Tel Aviv University in Israel found that tomato and tobacco plants made ultrasonic(超声的)sounds at frequencies humans can't hear when stressed by a lack of water or when their stem is cut.Microphones placed 10 centimeters from the plants picked up sounds in the ultrasonic range of 20 to 100 kilohertz. Human hearing usually ranges from 20 hertz to 20 kilohertz. " These findings can alter the way we think about the plant kingdom , " they wrote in their study, which has not yet been published.On average, drought - stressed tomato plants made 35 sounds an hour, while tobacco plants made 11. When plant stems were cut, tomato plants made an average of 25 sounds in the following hour, and tobacco plants 15. Unstressed plants produced fewer than one sound per hour. It is even possible to distinguish between the sounds to know what the stress is. The researchers trained a machine — learning model to separate the plants，sounds from those of the wind, rain and other noises of the greenhouse, correctly identifying in most cases whether the stress was caused by dryness or a cut, based on the sound's intensity and frequency. Water — hungry tobacco appeared to make louder sounds than cut tobacco, for example. Although Khait and his colleagues only looked at tomato and tobacco plants, they believe other plants may make sounds when stressed.Enabling farmers to listen for water — stressed plants could " open a new direction in the field of precision(精准) agriculture", the researchers suggest. They add that such an ability will be increasingly important as climate change exposes more areas to drought.Khait's study also suggests that insects and some mammals can hear and respond to from as far as 5 metres away. A moth may decide against laying eggs on a plant that sounds water - stressed. Edward Farmer at the University of Lausanne, Switzerland thinks the idea that moths might be listening to plants is “a little too speculative”. After all, there are already plenty of explanations for why insects avoid some plants and not others.5．What were tomato and tobacco plants' reactions to different stresses?A．They reacted to different types of stress with the same sound.B．Cut tomato plants produced more sounds per hour than water — hungry ones .C．Cut tobacco plants seemed to make lower sounds than drought - stressed ones.D．Tobacco plants might make louder sounds than tomato plants when short of water. 6．What's the main idea of Paragraph 4?A．The potential applications of the research.B．Challenges facing farmers in the future.C．Farmers' contributions to the research.D．The future development of agriculture.7．What does the underlined word "speculative" in the last paragraph probably mean?A．Practical. B．Surprising.C．Unsupported. D．Complicated.8．What may be the best tide for the text?A．Silent scream B．Mysteries of natureC．Inner voices D．A yet - to-be - published study C  The following picture books are a wonderful way to improve the summer experience with kids.♦ Vampirina at the Beach by Anne Marie PaceVampirina and her best monster friend head to the beach during the full moon on a perfect summer night to enjoy all the fun and festivities the beach has to offer.

It makes everyone in the room feel better because they, consciously or unconsciously, are smiling with you. Growing evidence shows that an instinct for facial mimicry(模仿) allows us to empathize with and even experience other people’s feelings. If we can’t mirror another person’s face, it limits our ability to read and properly react to their expressions. A review of this emotional mirroring appears on February 11 in Trends in Cognitive Sciences.In their paper, Paula Niedenthal and Adrienne Wood, social psychologists at the University of Wisconsin, describe how people in social situations copy others’ facial expressions to create emotional responses in themselves. For example, if you’re with a friend who looks sad, you might “try on” that sad face yourself without realizing you’re doing so. In “trying on” your friend’s expression, it helps you to recognize what they’re feeling by associating it with times in the past when you made that expression. Humans get this emotional meaning from facial expressions in a matter of only a few hundred milliseconds.“You reflect on your emotional feelings and then you generate some sort of recognition judgment, and the most important thing that results in is that you take the appropriate action—you approach the person or you avoid the person,” Niedenthal says. “Your own emotional reaction to the face changes your perception of how you see the face in such a way that provides you with more information about what it means.”A person’s ability to recognize and “share” others’ emotions can be prevented when they can’t mimic faces. This is a common complaint for people with motor diseases, like facial paralysis(瘫痪) from a stroke, or even due to nerve damage from plastic surgery. Niedenthal notes that the same would not be true for people who suffer from paralysis from birth, because if you’ve never had the ability to mimic facial expressions, you will have developed compensatory ways of interpreting emotions.People with social disorders associated with mimicry or emotion-recognition damage, like autism(自闭症), can experience similar challenges. “There are some symptoms in autism where lack of facial mimicry may in part be due to limitation of eye contact,” Niedenthal says.Niedenthal next wants to explore what part in the brain is functioning to help with facial expression recognition. A better understanding of that part, she says, will give us a better idea of how to treat related disorders.12．According to the passage, facial mimicry helps ________.A．experience one’s own feelings clearly B．change others’ emotions quicklyC．respond to others’ expressions properly D．develop friendship with others easily13．We can know from Paragraph 4 and 5 that ________.A．people with motor diseases may also suffer from autismB．people born with facial paralysis may still recognize emotionsC．people with social disorders can’t have eye contact with othersD．people receiving plastic surgery have difficulty in mimicking faces14．According to Niedenthal, the next step of the study will focus on ________.A．how we can treat brain disorders                 B．what can be done to regain facial mimicryC．how our brain helps us with emotional mirroring    D．what part of our brain helps recognize facial expression15．The passage is written to ________.A．discuss how people react positively to others’ smilesB．draw people’s attention to those with social disordersC．introduce a new trend in facial expression recognitionD．explain how emotional mirroring affects people’s empathy 第二节 (共5小题:每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Hello!
