Sichuan (China Daily)-- The beginning of will see another mass of graduates fresh from the campus hunting for jobs.
Sichuan University has done something special to help its graduates. One morning last month, a lady stopped her Porsche (保时捷豪华跑车) in front of the students’canteen (食堂). She stepped out of her expensive car and began to polish shoes for the students who were passing by. Later it was discovered that she was a special lecturer who had been invited to talk to students on career development.
Li Hui, 42, started from scratch (白手起家) in 1998 and has expanded her shoe-polishing service from a single one-person stand on a street to a chain of 2,000 stands that operate in supermarkets, hotels and office buildings.
Li Hui said, “Apart from the existing and advertised job opportunities, there are plenty of other ways that people can try to make money. There is nothing ignoble if you are doing an off-line business on your own, such as car washing, house cleaning, shoe polishing, etc.”
It is to be hoped that such a successful grassroots woman as Li Hui will give the coming rush of job hunters an insight into the job market in another way.
61. According to the passage, Li Hui is a ________.
A. canteen manager
B. university teacher
C. businesswoman
D. taxi driver
62. Why did Li Hui polish shoes for the students?
A. To earn money from them.
B. To show the students how to polish shoes.
C. To set an example to job-hunting graduates.
D. To show that shoe polishing is quite an easy job.
63. The students can learn from what Li Hui said that ________.
A. no job is hard if you have a will to do it
B. women can be successful in all careers as men
C. everyone can be rich and famous through hard work
D. there are plenty of opportunities to succeed for everyone
64. What would be the best title for the news report?
A. A Successful Woman
B. A Rich Shoe-Polisher
C. Off-Line Jobs Help Make More Money
D. Self-Employment -- A New Way Out for Job Hunters
B
If you planning to study in the United States, you need to consider several factors （因素）. Everyone has different opinions about where is the best place to live in. Also, the best places to live in are not always home to the best schools. What’s more, many schools specialize in different
areas of study. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, for example, is a great school for computer science. And if you want to study oceanography, your interests may be better served by attending school in a place which is near the ocean.
Now I will tell you about which states I believe are the best to live in. California is a nice state. Northern California especially has very good weather. As for me, I enjoyed the time I spent in Massachusetts, Virginia and Mary land. These states have a lot of history and culture. The weather is not so perfect as that in California, but is still quite nice. My favourite of America is the Midwest. Middle America, I think, is home to the true American sense of values. Besides, there are many good universities, too.
Also you need to think about your likes and dislikes and then research the different areas. You like sunshine and hate snow? Then you probably won’t like the Midwest or even the Northeast. Open space, nature, peace and quiet? Then you’d better stay away from America’s larger cities. Are you interested in government? Then Washington D.C. is the only place for you. Whatever you decide, put some thought into it.
65. From the first paragraph we can infer that in the USA .
A. all colleges and universities lie in big cities
B. all colleges and universities lie in beautiful places
C. famous colleges and universities lie in nice places
D. famous colleges and universities may not lie in nice places
66. should be considered first if you want to study in the USA.
A. The climate
B. The scenery
C. The study condition
D. The living condition
67. The writer likes Middle America best because .
A. he feels the real character of the nation here
B. the weather is fine here
C. the life is full of excitement
D. he likes sunshine and hates snow
68. The passage mainly .
A. tells us something about American universities.
B. gives us some advice on studying in America
C. lets us know about America
D. describes the scenery of America
C

I was 9 years old when I found out my father was ill. It was 1994, but I can remember my mother’s words as if it were yesterday. “Kerrel, I don’t want you to take food from your father, because he has AIDS. Be very careful when you are around him.”
AIDS wasn’t something we talked about in my country when I was growing up. From then on, I knew that this would be a family secret. My parents were not together anymore, and my dad lived alone. For a while, he could take care of himself. But when I was 12, his condition worsened.
My father’s other children lived far away, so it fell to me to look after him.
We couldn’t afford all the necessary medication for him, and because Dad was unable to work., I had no money for school supplies and often couldn’t even buy food for dinner. I would sit in class feeling completely lost, the teacher’s words muffled as I tried to figure out how I was going to manage.
I did not share my burden（负担）with anyone. I had seen how people reacted to AIDS. Kids laughed at classmates who had parents with the disease. And even adults could be cruel. When my father was moved to the hospital, the nurses would leave his food on the bedside even though he was too weak to feed himself.
I had known that he was going to die, but after so many years of keeping his condition a secret, I was completely unprepared when he reached his final days. Sad and hopeless, I called a woman at the nonprofit National AIDS Support. That day, she kept me on the phone for hours. I was so lucky to find someone who cared. She saved my life.
I was 15 when my father died. He took his secret away with him, having never spoken about AIDS to anyone, even me. He didn’t want to call attentio n to AIDS.I do.
72．What does Kerrel tell us about her father?
A. He had stayed in the hospital since he fell ill
B. He depended on the nurses in his final days.
C. He worked hard to pay for his medication.
D. He told no one about his disease.
73．What can we learn from the underlined sentence?
A. Kerrel couldn’t understand her teacher.
B. Kerrel had special difficulty in hearing.
C. Kerrel was too troubled to focus on the lesson.
D. Kerrel was too tired to hear her teacher’s words.
74．Why did Kerrel keep her father’s disease a secret?
A. She was afraid of being looked down upon.
B. She thought it was shameful to have AIDS.
C. She found no one willing to listen to her.
D. She wanted to obey her mother.
75．Why did Kerrel write the passage?
A. To tell people about the sufferings of her father.
B. To show how little people knew about AIDS.
C. To draw people’s attention to AIDS.
D. To remember her father.

Our school has now started an activity called “Build Civilized Classes and a Harmonious Campus.” The slogan is “Get Rid of Bad Habits and Greet Civilization”.
Bad habits do exist. Some students throw rubbish everywhere or spit in public. Some wear long hair. Others are even addicted to smoking and drinking. We require that students get rid of these bad habits.
We urge students to wear their school uniforms and be polite to others.
During the activity, we’ll hold a picture show, a competition for classroom and dormitory decorations and some other events.
We all hope that we can turn each class into a civilized one and our campus into a harmonious place.
