第八高级中学(gāojízhōngxué)2021届高三英语上学期期中试题〔实验班〕一、阅读理解A.Putting Movies on MobilesMovies in the theater get their recognition at awards ceremonies such as the Oscars. But how about movies for phones? They are getting their turn at MoFilm— the first mobile film festival.The first MoFilm competition received 250 entries from more than 100 countries. Entries were restricted to films that were five minutes or less in length—best for viewing and sharing on mobile phones. An independent team of judges then selected a shortlist of five film-makers. The winner was chosen from the shortlist by an audience voting using their phones.New PlatformsThe awards highlight the increasing influence that mobile phones are showing in the entertainment industry. Many grassroots filmmakers start out with short films. They are thwarted by the lack of opportunities to screen their work. Therefore, mobile phones are increasingly being seen as a new platform for these short works.It is a good place for anyone who wants to express themselves and find a way to have that expression be seen by a wide audience. Just think about how many people have mobile phones in the world!New Technology AdvancesMoFilm is pioneering content for mobile and online services that is a world away from Hollywood. The majority of films made for mobiles are now short in length, taking into account the screen size. However this could be overcome as technology advances.In the near future, longer films will likely be seen on the mobile phone. And there are mobile companies creating phones where users can watch moviesat higher quality.Wherever you see movies, one thing is certain: the quality of work, the simple ability at story telling, and the thing that inspires someone to tella story can really come from anywhere.21.At the first MoFilm, ______.A.the best films were five minutes or less in lengthB.over 100 countries took part in the competitionC.movies in the theater got their recognitionD.the winner was chosen by experts’ voting22.The underlined word “thwarted〞means “______〞.A.surprisedB.disappointedC.frightenedD.encouraged23.Nowadays the majority of films made for mobiles are short in length because of ______.A.the screen sizeB.online servicesC.technology advancesD.the mobile phone24.We can learn from the text______.A.It is impossible to see longer films on mobile phone.B.Mobile companies will creating more films.C.The quality work can only be seen in the theater.D.The quality of work can also be seen from MoFilms.B.Have you ever noticed that you feel happier and more relaxed after you eat bread, pasta or fruit? Do you find that you are more energetic and awake after eating yogurt or beans? These things are not accidents. Food affects how we feel more than we may think. Scientists researching food and itseffect on our moods are beginning to understand that we can influence our feelings with what we eat.There are chemicals in our brains that control our moods. One of the most basic of these is serotonin (血清素) , one of the most commonly recognized. When serotonin levels increase, we feel more relaxed and happy; when the levels decrease, we feel unhappier.Proteins (蛋白质) found in nuts, vegetables, tofu and some milk products contain a chemical that makes us feel more awake and energetic.Another chemical that can easily affect our mood is caffeine (咖啡因). Caffeine, which is found in coffee, chocolate and many types of tea, is perhaps the worst thing you can have when you are feeling stressed. Yetcoffee or chocolate are often the first things people think of eating whenthey are under pressure. Caffeine and sugar can reduce your blood sugar level, which changes your brain chemistry and vitamin levels, making you feel even more stressed.Of course, enjoying a nice meal with friends, whatever we eat, can also affect how you feel. It is important not to worry about eating the rightfoods to control your mood. Most importantly, though, remember the old rule:try to eat different foods, and do not eat too much!25.Which of the followi ng can’t make you more energetic?A.yogurtB.beansC.sugarD.nuts26.How many types of chemicals controlling moods are mentioned in the passage?A.TwoB.ThreeC.FourD.Five27.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Being with friends also plays a big role in feeling happy.B.When you feel stressed, you can eat too much food.C.We are supposed to eat healthy food to keep a slim figure.D.You have to pay attention to what you eat to change your mood.C.Proudly reading my words, I glanced around the room, only to find my classmates bearing big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes. Confused, I glanced toward my stone-faced teacher. Having no choice, I slowlyraised the report I had slaved over, hoping to hide myself. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?〞Quickly, I flashed back to the day Miss Lancelot gave me the task. This was the first real talk I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. Since my idea of history came from an ancient teacher in my home country, I had never heard of that name before. As I searched the name of this fellow, it became evident that there were two people bearing the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice: flip (掷) a coin. Heads—the commander, and tails—the peanuts guy. Ah! Tails, my report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.Weeks later, standing before this unfriendly mass, I was totally lost. Oh well, I lowered the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American Revolution.〞 The whole world became quite! How could I know that she meant that George Washington?Obviously, my grade was awful. Heartbroken but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to Miss Lancelot, but she insisted: No re-dos; nonew grade. I felt that the punishment was not justified, and I believed I deserved a second chance. Consequently, I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, that chance unfolded as I found myself sitting in the headmaster’s office with my grandfather, now having an entirely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the embarrassing moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster informed me of my option to skip the sixth grade. Justice is sweet!28.What did the author’s classmates think about his report?A.sad.B.Ridiculous.C.Boring.D.Puzzling.29.Why was the author confused about the task?A.He followed the advice and flipped a coin.B.He was unfamiliar with American history.C.He forgot his teacher’s instruction.D.He was new at the school.30.The underlined word “burning〞 in Para. 3 probably means _______.A.annoyedB.ashamedC.eagerD.ready31.In the end, the author turned things around _______.A.by redoing his taskB.through his own effortsC.with the help of his grandfatherD.under the guidance of his headmasterD.It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs.In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t.It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs.But this isn’t accepted by al l people.Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living.This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education.In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school.People can get education for a living in a short time.Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone.Even language and maths need not be taught in detail(详细(xiángxì)地), either.Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man.It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities.After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of cation is to make a man lead a better cated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and take an interest in the world.I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.32.People with little education usually ________.A.spend a long time in schoolB.have a good chance to get a jobC.spend the best years to choose jobsD.have fewer chances to get a good job33.The earliest education was probably to ________.A.make a man lead a better lifeB.teach a man to write and readC.make people get a way of livingD.teach people to read good books34.The underlined word“well-rounded〞in the passage means “________〞 in Chinese.A.圆满的B.崭新的C.公平(gōng píng)的D.全面的35.It is expected that educated people will be able to ________.A.accept education as a way of livingB.take an interest in the whole worldC.develop their abilities to make playsD.learn subjects like language and math二、七选五根据短文内容,从短文后的选项里面选出能填入空白处的最正确选项,选项里面有两项为多余选项。

安徽省名校联盟2023-2024学年高三上学期实验班12月大联考英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解Four best beaches in ZanzibarNungwi BeachThis beach is located in the north of the island and is famous for its amazing sunsets and lively atmosphere. You will love the soft white sand and the crystal (水晶般的) clear water. It is one of the most beautiful beaches in Zanzibar. But, be careful with the tides, because they can rise very fast and catch you.Paje BeachSituated in the east of the island, Paje Beach is characterized by strong tides. Here you will find a relaxed atmosphere and a dream beach with crystal clear waters and silky soft sand. On top of that, you can practice water sports such as kitesurfing, because this beach is known as one of the best in the world for this activity. In addition, if you like the nightlife, here you will find a lot of bars and nightclubs to spend a fun night.Jambiani BeachJambiani beach is one of the most remote beaches of Zanzibar and that is why it is one of our favorites. It has a length of 7 km and is located southeast of the island. It has hardly any rocks and the sand is very fine. It is a very quiet and uncrowded beach.Matemwe BeachLocated on the east coast of Zanzibar, this beach is one of the longest on the island. During low tide, the water goes down 2 kilometers, and the locals take advantage of it to collect sea animals.The beach is beautiful but yes, in this particular one, it is essential to enter the water with great care and even appropriate footwear, as there are a lot of sea urchins (海胆).1.What can visitors do when they choose Nungwi Beach?A.Catch the tides.B.Watch wonderful sunsets.C.Enjoy a colorful nightlife.D.Experience various water sports. 2.Which place is suitable for visitors to practice kitesurfing?A.Nungwi Beach.B.Paje Beach.C.Jambiani Beach.D.MatemweBeach.3.Who will probably be attracted to Matemwe Beach?A.Sunrise lovers.B.Brave surfers.C.Sea animal collectors.D.Nightclub frequenters.“Never Again” sits at the intersection of art and craft. The object is both a basket, made from sweetgrass and palmetto (棕榈), and an abstract sculpture. Much wider than it is tall, from a distance “Never Again” seems to be of one hue, but on closer inspection you can see that its brown, cream and green fibers change into purposeful patterns of color. Such details encourage viewers to study the work slowly, the way you might examine one of Jackson Pollock’s paintings carefully.The piece was made by Mary Jackson, an African-American artist, in 2007. In 2008 Mrs Jackson received $500,000 to support the creation of work that both preserved “the centuries-old craft of sweetgrass basketry” and moved “the tradition in amazing new directions”.Born in 1945, Mrs Jackson grew up in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. She is Gullah, a member of an ethnic group who preserve the African roots of their distinct language and culture. Mrs Jackson was introduced to traditional weaving (编织) techniques by her mother and grandmother at the age of four.In the 1960s, after finishing school, Mrs Jackson moved to New York to find work. There, she visited the city’s museums and discovered Minimalism and Pop Art, which had a deep effect on her. When she returned to South Carolina in 1972, she picked up basketmaking again, but with a new feeling.Her works show clear shapes and innovative dimensions. Early works, such as “Cobra with Handle”, are complex, but still usable baskets. Mid-career pieces, including “Two Lips”, reveal a delicate turn away from utility towards aestheticism (唯美主义). It is a delicate work that is ill-suited to holding rice or produce.“I wanted to do something that was very different from what my ancestors made,” she says. “Never Again” is perhaps the best representation of her work; Mrs Jackson says she named the piece to reflect her belief that she would not be able to create another object as striking. (It took her three years to complete.) “I don’t think I’ll continue to make these baskets like how I used to, she says. Instead, approaching her 80s, she is “working on newthings”.4.What is “Never Again”?A.It’s an appealing abstract sculpture.B.It’s a basket made by an African farmer.C.It’s patterns of color mixed for no purpose.D.It’s a painting created by Jackson Pollock.5.What influenced Mary Jackson when she lived in New York?A.Prehistoric items.B.Contemporary arts.C.Minimalism and Pop Art.D.Jackson Pollock’s paintings. 6.What’s the feature of the works of Mary Jackson?A.It’s simple and practical.B.It’s traditional and costly.C.It’s aesthetic and complex.D.It’s functional and economical. 7.Which of the following best describes Mary Jackson?A.Shy and confident.B.Brave and strong.C.Talented and innovative.D.Ambitious and successful.Listening to an audiobook (有声书) before bed affects a person’s brain activity after they nod off as well as the content of their dreams.Better understanding this effect could help treat certain mental health conditions by targeting memory processing during sleep. When we sleep, our brain spontaneously (自发地) “replays”, or reactivates, patterns of electrical activity that are related to learning to transfer important new information to long-term memory storage. It has been suggested that dreams may reflect this reactivation, but exactly how is unclear.To investigate, Deniz Kumral at the University of Freiburg, Germany, and her colleagues asked 20 people to listen to different audiobooks just before they went to sleep. These included The Mystery of the Blue Train by Agatha Christie and Inkheart by Comelia Funke.Among the participants who remembered their dreams, the researchers could identify which audiobook each had heard from their descriptions of the dreams. While the participants slept, the researchers also used an EEG (脑电图) cap that detects electrical activity to record their brain waves. This showed that the wave patterns during the rapid eye movement phase of sleep, when dreams occur, were more similar between those who had heard the same audiobook than those who had heard different ones, suggesting that the listening experienceshaped the brain activity.Further analysis of the patterns revealed that high-frequency beta waves — between 18 and 30 hertz — were most strongly associated with the participants recalling the audiobook-related content of their dreams. The findings suggest that daily life experiences can shape dream content via memory reactivation, according to the researchers. But while dreaming may serve a distinct purpose in memory formation, it could also be a by-product of memory processing.“Daytime experiences are rarely replayed as experienced, but are almost always modified or surface in different contexts,” says Kumral. “Individuals with certain psychological conditions or mental problems might benefit from tailored strategies that enhance memory processing or treat disorders of dreaming during sleep, potentially contributing to improved mental and emotional health.”8.What did the researchers ask the participants to do?A.Record their dreams every night.B.Wear an EEG cap during the day.C.Listen to audiobooks during the day.D.Listen to audiobooks just before sleep. 9.Why did Deniz Kumral and her colleagues do the research?A.To know how people process information.B.To find out the contents of people’s dreams.C.To reveal the secret of improving people’s memory.D.To investigate how dreams replay patterns of electrical activity.10.What does the underlined word “modified” in the last paragraph probably mean?A.Stored.B.Changed.C.Forgotten.D.Strengthened. 11.What is the main idea of the text?A.The importance of dreams in memory formation.B.Integration of daily experiences into dreams.C.Listening experiences influencing brain activity.D.Listening to audiobooks before bed shaping one’s dream.Maj Tim Peake has backed the idea of solar farms in space, saying the concept is “becoming absolutely viable (可行的)”.Peake said the falling cost of launching heavy goods into orbit meant that such complex structures could soon be sent to space, with the potential to provide significant power. Peake,the first British European Space Agency (ESA)astronaut to visit the International Space Station, said, “It boils down to hard numbers at the end of the day. Launching thousands of tons of hardware into low Earth orbit is becoming absolutely viable.”The ESA has been exploring the idea of space-based solar power plants, and commissioned two “concept studies” earlier this year. It is hoping to present a business case to the EU by 2025. Peake said the agency calculated that solar farms in space would be financially viable when goods could be launched at a cost of $1,000 (£807) per kg or less.He told an energy tech summit last week, “So far, the actual costs have been about $2,700 per kilo. Launches using the Falcon Heavy can reduce that to about $1,500 and the so-called Starship brings that down by an order of magnitude to about $300 per kilo.”The Falcon Heavy and Starship are rockets designed by Elon Musk’s Space X aerospace company. The Falcon Heavy is already transporting goods such as satellites into space, while the Starship is in development. An unmanned test flight in April exploded minutes after liftoff. Unlike previous launchers, they are reusable and designed to return to Earth undamaged. This means there is no need to construct a new rocket for each launch, bringing costs down. The ESA’s Solaris project aims to launch solar panels into space, programmed to robotically link up with other panels to build a solar farm.While Earth-based solar farms are unable to generate electricity in the dark, space-based panels can harvest the sun’s energy continuously. Peake said, “If you can build solar farms in space, then you can send that energy down to ground stations via microwaves. It means clean, limitless energy from space becomes an absolute possibility.”12.What is the function of the first paragraph?A.A definition of solar farm.B.An introduction to the main topic.C.The background information of the text.D.Presentation of a new phenomenon in technology.13.What’s the purpose of listing figures in the text?A.To highlight importance of the task.B.To prove the task well workable.C.To tell the cost of building solar farms.D.To show difficulties of building solar farms.14.Why are the Falcon Heavy and Starship rockets more favorable?A.They are reusable and can reduce costs.B.They can transport goods into space quickly.C.They are designed by a reliable and big company.D.They have been used in many successful launches.15.What’s the advantage of space-based solar panels?A.They can generate electricity continuously.B.They can send energy down to ground stations.C.They are programmed to link up with other panels.D.They are more efficient in harvesting the sun’s energy二、七选五Gesturing is powerful and important to our conversations. The challenge is to use it to good effect. Here are some tips that can help you take advantage of gesturing.Encourage gesturing in your children, students and anyone else you are trying to teach.16 Gesturing while learning will also make them more likely to solve the same problem in a new way. That is important because being able to generalize what we learn is essential to acquiring new knowledge.17 While learning to talk, children typically convey sentence-like meanings in a combination of gesture and speech before using words alone -- for example, pointing at a box and saying “open”. If a child fails to produce these gesture-word combinations, it may be a sign that their spoken language development will be delayed, allowing you to intervene and help.Pay attention to other people’s gestures. These offer a window into the speakers’ thoughts. These thoughts are often at the cutting-edge of their knowledge or address issues that are uppermost in their minds. 18Be careful that your gestures say what you want them to. Those you talk to will pay attention to your gestures, so choose them wisely. 19 And if you are questioning someone, be aware that a gesture may unintentionally influence them to tell you what you want to hear rather than give their own fair answer.Gesture more when you speak. It will help you learn and understand more. If you gesture while talking, you will remember more of what you have said. 20 This can give you a way of seeing what others are thinking but not saying.A.Observe the gesturing of kids.B.Remember, gestures can reveal what you might want to hide.C.This will help them understand the material you are conveying.D.Whether we realize it or not, gestures are a part of our communication.E.What’s more, when you gesture, the people around you tend to do so too.F.Noticing and responding to such gestures will help you understand their thoughts.G.Knowing how to use gestures effectively can make you a better communicator.三、完形填空After a college football player named Brian Dooley noticed his teammate was juggling26.A.handed B.delivered C.bought D.mailed 27.A.whispers B.noises C.cheers D.jokes 28.A.depressed B.fearful C.embarrassed D.thankful 29.A.sent B.posted C.presented D.returned 30.A.rewarded B.paid C.commented D.observed 31.A.project B.motivation C.plan D.theory 32.A.run B.build C.start D.support 33.A.means B.tells C.explains D.decides 34.A.sick B.proud C.scared D.ashamed 35.A.yard B.farm C.market D.field四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Here are some great scholarships and grant(奖学金、助学金) opportunities to get the ball rolling on your dreams of becoming a teacher.Straightforward Teacher ProgramThis is one of the most popular and unique scholarships available for students working towards becoming teachers. The foundation offers their scholarships every three months as opposed to each year. During each payment, four students receive a $500 scholarship.Prezell Robinson Scholarship Programit is so incredibly helpful that many students choose to study in the state for the only purpose of receiving it. It is offered to college students who come from low-income high schools or families that are interested in pursuing a long term career in education at any level.New York State Scholarship Programwant to give back to their community through their ability to teach. The catch for this scholarship is that the students must be pursuing a teaching career in mathematics or science at the secondary level.Also, because the program was designed to improve the education system in New York, the candidates must sign a service contract agreeing to work full time within the state for at least five years after graduation.Coca-Cola ScholarshipsCola Foundation. There is the Coca Cola Teaching Foundation that will provide free money for students pursuing an education in the teaching field. This is the most obvious for teachers, but do not be afraid to check out their other offers.Funds For TeachersNot all scholarships or grants are for students entering or already in college. The Funds for Teachers scholarships are for graduates who are already working in the field, but want to improve their possibilities, skills and education in an effort to increase their ability to teach the students that cross their path more effectively. Teachers in PreK through 12th grade are applicable(适用) no matter where they teach or what subject they specialize in.36. How many students get their scholarships each year according to the Straightforward Teacher Program?A. Four.B. Sixteen.C. Eight.D. Six.37. The reason why many students choose to study in the state of North Carolina is that________.A. they can pursue a long term career in educationB. there are some good universities in North CarolinaC. they can receive Prezell Robinson ScholarshipD. they can go to college easily38.

Five Scholarships for StudentsBIf you happen to be near Ocean Avenue Elementary in Portland, Maine, you might see Paige Marchand walking to school. According to Portland TV station WCSH, Paige is part of a “walking school bus”—a group of kids who walk to school together every day. A parent comes along to act as a driver of sorts, to make sure the kids walk safely. But the kids look out for each other, too.“Sometimes, they’ll pick one person to go ahead of everybody and then just stop at each crossing, waiting for everyday to catch up. Everyone is excited,” Paige told WCSH reporter Chris Rose.This Wednesday morning was October 5th, 2011. That morning, more than 3,700 schools across the country participated in International Walk to School Day. The goal is to get more kids walking every day—like Paige—so long as there’s a safe route to and from school.“The only walking a lot of students do is to walk from the classroom to the door of their parent s’ car,” said Paul Holman, a physical education teacher at Spence Elementary in La Crosse, Wisconsin. “It’s great exercise. And it’ll help you get fit instead of fat. We let the kids know that walking is a start.”Forty years ago, approximately half of all kids walked to school, according to people who keep track of such statistics. Today, that number is reportedly down to around 13 percent. International Walk to School Day is talking to reverse that trend.When it started 14 years ago in Chicago, Hlinois, it was known as “National Walk Our Children to School Day.” But within a few years, it went international, and today millions of kids in all 50 states and a number of other countries participate.Last week, Spence students took part in a regional “Walk to School Challenge” to celebrate the day. Kids who have to take buses to school were able to participate. They did their walking inside the school’s gym.“I like to walk in school,” Spence student Cowan Reuter told Anderson. The school with the highest participation rate got a special trophy(奖杯), according to the Tribune. The name of the trophy? “The Golden Shoe.”41. The group of kids who take part in the “walking school bus”____________.A. have to walk to school aloneB. have to take a bus to schoolC. have a teacher to look after themD. enjoy walking to school42. According to Paul Holman, the walk _________.A. aims to get kids to lead a green lifeB. is good for kid’s physical healthC. is enough for kids’ daily exerciseD. doesn’t need to be done every day43. The underli ned word “reverse” in Paragraph 5 is closes in meaning to “_______”A. examineB. AppreciateC. changeD. report44. International Walk to School Day started in_______.A. 1997B. 2001C. 2007D. 201145. We can learn from the passage that the “Walk to School Challenge” ______.A. was an internationally famous activityB. was organized for kids walking to schoolC. was actually held inside a schoolD. awarded the winner a golden shoeCDo you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness, happiness, goodness, and self-respect? The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized as “honor” help you create this life of good feelings.Here’s an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item. If we keep silent and profit from the clerk’s mistake, we would drive home with a sense of excitement. Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune. On the other hand, if we tell the clerk about he uncharged item, the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty. We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might never share with another soul.Then what is it to do with our sense of happiness?In the first case, where we don’t tell the clerk, a co uple of things would happen. Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief. In the process, we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect. We would also demonstrate that we cannot be trusted, since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends. We damage our own reputations by telling others. In contrast, bringing the error to the clerk’s attention causes different things o happen. Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable. Upon leaving the store, we feel honorable and our self-respect is increased. Whenever we take honorable action we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility.There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions. Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions. Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence. And it’s easy to think and act honorable again when we’re happy. While the positive cycle can be difficult to start, once it’s started, it’s easy to continue. Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind, which is important for our happiness.46. According to the passage, the positive action in the example contributes to our______.A. self-respectB. financial rewardsC. advertising abilityD. friendly relationship47. The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal to______.A. lyingB. StealingC. cheatingD. advertising48. The phrase “bringing he error to the clerk’s attention” in Paragraph 5 means______.A. telling the truth to the clerkB. offering advice to the clerkC. asking the clerk to be attentiveD. reminding the clerk of the prices49. How will we feel if we let the clerk know her mistake?A. We’ll be very excitedB. We’ll feel unfortunateC. We’ll have a sense of honorD. We’ll feel sorry for the clerk50. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?A. How We Can Live TruthfullyB. The Importance of PeacefulnessC. Ways of Gaining Self-respectD. Happiness through Honorable ActionsDCollege graduation brings both the satisfaction of academic achievement and the expectation of a well-paying job. But for 6000 graduates at San Jose State this year, there’s uncertainty as they enter one of the worst job markets in decades. RyanStewart has a freshly-minted(新兴的)degree in religious studies, but no job prospects.“You look at everybody’s parents and neighbors, and they’re getting laid off and don’t have jobs,” said Stewart. “Then you look at the young people just coming into the workforce… it’s just scary.”When the class of 2003 entered college, the future never looked brighter. But in the four years they’ve been here, the world outside has changed dramatically.“Those were the exciting times, lots of dot-com opportunities, exploding offers, students getting to p dollar with lots of benefits,” said Cheryl Allmen- Vinnidge of the San Jose State Career Center. “Times have changed. It’s a new market.”Cheryl Allmen- Vinnidge ought to know. She runs the San Jose State Career Center, sort of a crossroad between college and the real world. Allmen-Vinnidge says students who do find jobs after college have done their homework.“The typical graduate who does have a job offer started working on it two years ago. They’ve postured(定位) themselves well during the summer. They’v e had several internships(实习),” she said. And they’ve majored in one of the few fields that are still hot, like chemical engineering, accounting, or nursing, where average starting salaries have actually increased over last year. Other popular fields (like information systems management, computer science, and political science) have seen big declines in starting salaries.Ryan Stewart (he had hoped to become a teacher) may just end up going back to school. “I’d like to teach college some day and that requir es more schooling, which would be great in a bad economy,” he said.To some students, a degree may not be a ticket to instant wealth. For now, they can only hope its value will increase over time.51. The expression “dot-com” in the Paragraph 4 probably means “_____”.A. a company making dotsB. jobs related to high-technologyC. teaching on the InternetD. a well-known website52. What does Chery1 Allmen-Vinnidge mean when she says students have “done their homework”? A. They have spent time preparing themselves to find a job.B. They have gone to summer schools for further studies.C. They are good students who have finished their homework on time.D. They have found full-time jobs as their future career before graduation.53. The purpose of a college career center is probably to ______.A. help students to finish their homeworkB. find jobs for students while they are in schoolC. prepare students to find jobs after they graduateD. help high school students get accepted to college54. Ryan Stewart is probably going to _____.A. get teaching jobB. become a religious leaderC. change his majorD. go back to school55. What does the underlined sentence “To some students, a degree may not be a ticket to instant wealth” in the last paragraph mea n?A. Having a college degree does not provide travel discounts.B. A college degree doesn’t promise a person a high-paying job.C. Most students with degrees will not be able to find good jobs.D.
