Dear Mr. Jones,
I epect you may be slightly surprised to receive a letter from someone living as near as your net-door neighbor; but I have to raise a subject that it will be easier for me to discuss in writing.
You may have noticed that I have a line of apple trees running alongside the fence that separates our two gardens. You may also have taen pleasure in the frequent sight of your two children sitting on your lawn directly by the fence. And you may also have noticed that my apple trees, so to spea, bend over the fence and seem to loo down at your children with interest.
It is only natural that your children should sometimes seem to return that interest. And it is not only natural, but, I acnowledge, quite legal, for them occasionally to show that interest by picing all the apples that hang over on your side of the fence.
But to be plain with you, Mr. Jones, I am tired of seeing your children, day after day, tear the branches off the side of every one of my apple trees, and leave
my trees looing as though a battle had been fought on one side of them. I am, if anything, even more tired of waing up these fine autumn mornings, to find even the apples on my side of the fence much less in number. I now this is the wor of your children, since last night I was woen at midnight by the noise they were maing climbing one of my trees, and (as they may have told you) chased them home.
While I am on the subject, I am at least grateful to you for eeping your bonfires on the far side of your garden this year. Last year neither I nor your children had any apples, because the smoe from your bonfire destroyed all the flowers before the apples had time to form. I hope that net year—for the first time since I came to this village—I shall have my apples, and your children will have theirs and that the sight of the line of apple trees will be a pride to us both.
Otherwise, I shall not epress my displeasure simply in writing to you, but shall have to refer the matter to those capable of taing stronger action.
Yours sincerely,
J. Smith.

Do you have a business brain? Are you always looing for the net big idea? Maybe, lie me, you might feel setting up a new company is something you might do when you’re older, when you have more eperience. But that’s not always the case.
While some of us may feel young adulthood is a time of uncertainly finding our place in the world, sleeping late and partying hard, others are already on a path to great business success. Tae the founder of Microsoft, Bill Gates, who started his company as a young university student at Harvard in the US. There are many other eamples of young entrepreneurs (企业家) who have become hugely successful, proving that there’s no minimum age to becoming top dog.
But to be the net business eecutive requires effort. You need to acquire a een mind and good business intelligence and above all, you need enthusiasm. Starting a new business comes with an element of ris but if you are able to spot the net big idea, it’s probably worth giving it a try. Jessica Rose owns a jewelry maing business and admits that “when I first started I had no business training but when I woe up on e day, I thought I’d really love to be a jewelry designer.” She went on to be a successful young entrepreneur.
Being young and in business does have its drawbacs; you may worry you have nothing to bring to the table and that the people who wor for you tend to be older and wiser. That’s what young British entrepreneur Suleman Sacranie found. He started his third business while studying chemistry at university. He says “now I’ve got two additional directors who have grey hair” but when they first started he s ays he could tell they were thining in the bac of their heads, “I’ve got a id sitting in front of me.”
You may thin setting up a new start-up is easier said than done. As well as ideas, y ou need financial bacing and epert guidance. But if you’re studying h ard at university and don’t have the desire to go into business and mae your fortune, eep on studying – an education is priceless!
29. At the very beginning, what’s the author’s attitude to the necessity of being
aged and eperienced in setting up a new company?
A. Supportive.
B. Negative.
C. Impersonal.
D. Critical.
30. The author taes Jessica Rose for eample in order to show that __________.
A. doing business needs great effort
B. enthusiasm is more important than a een mind
C. business training is not necessary
D. it is easy to set up a new business
31. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?
A. Older directors shouldn’t be employed if you are young.
B. Age plays an important role in setting up new business.
C. If you don’t intend t o set up business, just focus on your study.
D. Education is more valuable than setting up a business.
D
Aniety has now surpassed depression as the most common mental health disease among college students, though depression, too, is on the rise. More than half of students visiting campus clinics cite aniety as a health concern, according to a recent study of more than 100,000 students nationwide by the Center for Collegiate Mental Health at Penn State.
The causes range widely, eperts say, from mounting academic pressure at earlier ages to overprotective parents to engagement with social media. Aniety has always played a role in the development of a student’s life, but now more students eperience aniety so acute that they are seeing professional help.
Aniety has become characteristic of the current generation of college students, said Dan Jones, the director of Counseling and Psychological Services at Appalachian State University in Boone, N. C. Because of increasingly pressures during high school, he and other eperts say, students arrive at college preloaded with stress. Accustomed to etreme parental oversight, many seem unable to govern themselves. And with parents so accessible, students have had less incentive to develop life sills. “They can’t tolerate discomfort or having to struggle,” Dr Jones said.
More often, aniety is mild and temporary, the indication of a student under the control of a normal developmental issue-learning time management, for eample, or how to handle rejection from a sorority(女生联谊会). Mild aniety is often treatable with early, modest interventions. But to care for rising numbers of severely troubled students, many counseling centers have moved to triage protocols
(分诊措施). That means that students with less urgent needs may wait several wees for first appointments.
32.What results in aniety mentioned according to the passage?
A. Overprotection from parents and teachers.
B. The social media pressure.
C. The dev elopment of students’ life.
D. Considerably learning pressure
33. What does the underlined word “incentive” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Motivation.
B. Attention
C. Appreciation.
D. Direction.
34. How do many counseling centers deal with some severely troubled students?
A. To send them to some psychological hospitals.
B. To teach them how to manage time.
C. To move to triage protocols.
D. To treat them with early, modest interventions.
35. Which of the following would be the best title for the tet?
A. College mental health centers overburdened with depression students.
B. Students burdened with aniety on the rise
C. Different mental diseases among college students.
D. Aniety and mental problems.
