My mother was a domestic (佣人). Through her work, she observed
that 37 people spent a lot more time reading than
they 38 watching television. She announced that my brother and
I 39 watch two to three pre – selected programs during the week. With our 40
time, we had to read two books each from the Detroit Public Library and 41 written book reports to her. She would mark them up with check marks and highlights. Years later we realized her marks were
a 42 .My mother was illiterate(文盲).
When I entered high school I was a 43 student, but not for long. I began to like fancy clothes. I wanted to__44 with other guys. I went from an A-student to a B-student to a C – student. One night my mother came home from her various jobs and I 45 about not having enough Italian knit shirts.

Barrack Obama has never been shy about comparing himself with Abraham Lincoln. He did so when he announced his presidential election in Illinois, where both he and Lincoln served in the legislature (立法机关). “The life of a tall, thin, self – made Springfield lawyer
tells us that a different future is possible,” Obama said. “He
tells us that there is power in words and that there is power in hope.” Such comparisons have continued on big and small occasions, but the most important similarity, in Obama’s mind, is how he plans to govern if elected.
Obama says he admires Doris Kearns Goodwin’s wonderful Lincoln biography, Team of Rivals. “He talks about it all the time,” says a top assistant. “He is particularly inte rested in the idea that Lincoln successfully won the hearts of many people who had run against him for President, some of them even disagreed with him firmly.” “The lesson is that you shouldn’t let your hatred (憎恨) get I the way of hiring absolutely the b est people,” says Obama. “I think American people are practical … and so I haven an interest in casting a wide net, seeking out people with a wide range of expert knowledge, including Republicans, for the highest positions in the government.”
“I don’t want to have people who just agree with me.” He says. “I want people who are continually pushing me forward and I’d be very interested in having those sorts of Republicans in my government, especially people who can speed up a responsible and logical conclusio n to the Iraq war.”
60．According to Barack Obama, the biggest similarity between Lincoln and himself is that .
A．they both lived in Illinois
B．they served in the same office
C．both of them are black
D．they have the same idea in governing
61．We can conclude from the passage that .
A．Lincoln believed in the power of words and hope
B．Lincoln was supported by all American people
C．Obama admires Doris Kearns Goodwin very much
D．Obama believes no one can put an end to the Iraq war soon
62．Obama is willing to cooperate with those who disagree with him because .
A．he is interested in Republicans’ ideas
B．he doesn’t want to show his hatred to the public
C．they have the highest positions in the government
D．they may push him to make the right decisions
63．The author wrote the passage to .
A．compare Obama and Lincoln B．help Obama to win more supporter
C．tell us something about Obama D．announce Obama’s political ideas

The terrible college entrance exam is not only a big challenge
for Chinese high school students, but also a very important exam in the lives of South Korean students. Although the long, cold winter has already started in South Korea, the annual (年度的) national exams have made the atmosphere very heated.
More than 675,000 South Korean high school graduates took the college entrance exam last Wednesday. They usually take exams in Korean, maths, sociology, history and foreign languages.
Officially there is one college place for every 1. 33 students. But because all the students want to go to the top universities in the country, the competition can reach one place for 2014 students. The students want to attend these colleges for both their famous names and better job opportunities.
Because students face fierce competition, they have to study very hard to realize their dreams. Park Seung said he and his classmates often go to school before 730 a. m. After school has finished at 630 p.m., most of them go to the library to continue their study instead of returning home. Since many libraries in South Korea are open 24 hours a day, they often stay long into the night. Many of the Senior 3 students only sleep for three to four hours a day.。
