大学进阶英语第三册练习题参考Unit OneOpenerGoing on a working holiday has many advantages:• A working holiday visa grants you access to a country for a longer period of time than a standard tourist visa.• The travel is sustainable in the sense that you can keep refilling your travel funds with employment.• You can try different types of jobs, even the ones that you normally wouldn’t do when at home. And in this sense, a working holiday could be a life-changing experience.• You are more likely to meet and make friends with the locals, not just other tourists. They can introduce you to a new culture.• A working holiday makes a good break. A popular time to sign up for a working holiday is th e break between high school and college or the break after college and before entering the real working world.Transcript:A working holiday is when you spend a significant amount of time in another country and have the working rights to back it up. You are able to pick up a job or two (or 6) and break that arrangement up by traveling or moving on to a new location in the country.In general, a working holiday visa grants you access to a country for a longer period of time than a standard tourist visa. In Australia, for example, the typical tourist visa is for 3 months while a working holiday visa is for 12 months.With a working holiday visa, you can work as you go, meaning you won’t necessarily go into debt while spending time abroad. Your method of travel may vary. Some prefer to travelup-front for several months and then spend the rest of the time working in one or two different locations. Others prefer to work for a month, travel for a month and then work for a month again. Either way, the travel is sustainable in the sense that you can keep refilling your travel funds with employment.With a working holiday visa, you are basically given the opportunity to test out any type of job, and you are probably put in a position to accept ones that you normally wouldn’t when athome. You never know what you might discover. A working holiday, in this sense, could end up being a life-changing experience.Moreover, by taking up employment in a country abroad, you are more likely to meet and make friends with the locals, not just other tourists, and that can do wonders for really introducing you to a new culture.A working holiday also makes a good break. A popular time to sign up for a working holiday is that break between high school and college or the break after college and before entering the real working world. Later working holiday experiences are often used by individuals as a way to explore the new and unknown. Taking part in a working holiday is a great idea to consider.Reading & InteractingI.

You will need to fill out various forms, including a visa application. Make sure it is the sort that allows you to take employment, rather than just being an ordinary tourist type that allows you to do sightseeing only. Alongside that, of course, you need to book your ticket. Once that is all done you will be ready to set off. Don’t let the thought of stepping outside your comfort zone frighten you, don’t let it stress you out. You may set out on your own, travelling solo, but you will soon make friends with many of the new people you meet on the way. So, start browsing the Internet to see where you would like to start your adventure!4.2 TranslationIf you are fully prepared, your working holiday abroad can be one of the most rewarding experiences you can ever have. Here are some tips. First, you need to choose your destination wisely by browsing relevant websites. Then fill out the necessary paperwork, apply for a visa and book your flight as early as possible. Try to learn some new job skills prior to your departure, which can give you more employment options abroad and help you save up enough money fortravel. Within weeks of arriving in a foreign country, people often feel stressed out or kind of confused, so be prepared for the emotional stress. Make friends with local people instead of taking the adventure solo. And whenever possible, go on sightseeing excursions and capture the places you visit in words or pictures. Last, always follow your heart and do what you truly want to do.Reading & Comprehending1. Comprehension Check for Reading 11. F2. F3. T4. T5. F6. F7. T8. F9. T 10. F2.

But with proper preparation, you may minimize the costs of this extraordinary opportunity; visit our Financing page to learn more about paying for tuition. In this section, we explore money matters that you may encounter on a daily basis during your adventure in the States.As with any country, it is not advisable to carry large amounts of cash around with you. There are other options such as credit cards or traveler's checks, which are all valid forms with which to pay for things in the U.S.Traveler's checks are one of the safest and easiest ways to transport money, because you may have them replaced if they get lost or stolen. If you choose to carry traveler's checks with you from your home country to the States, be sure they are denominated in U.S. funds. Most businesses—except taxi drivers and public transportation personnel—will accept U.S.-denominated traveler's checks during regular business hours, typically between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. It is wise to bring about $100 with you in U.S. cash, so you will be able to manage upon your arrival in the States.ScriptMany people wonder why some students can get straight A's, and here Professor Wilson tells us what some of his top students do.They take good notes in class. Jones, a super-achiever, says, "Reading the textbook is important, but the teachers are going to test you on what they emphasize in class. That's what you find in your notes."The top students also take notes while reading the text assignment. In fact, Jack Smith of Ohio State University uses his "home-made" system, in which he draws a line down the center of a notebook, writes notes from the text on one side and those from the teacher's lecture on the other. Then he is able to review both aspects of the assignment at the same time.Just before the bell rings, most students close their books, put away papers, whisper to friends and get ready to rush out. But Anderson uses those few minutes to write a two- or three-sentence summary of the lesson's principal points, which he scans before the next day's class.Good students schedule their time. When a teacher assigns a long paper, Lewis draws up a timetable, dividing the project into small pieces, so it isn't so hard. "It's like eating a steak," she says. "You chew it one bite at a time."To get good marks, one also has to speak up in class. "If I don't understand the principle that my teacher is explaining in economics, I ask him to repeat it," says Campbell. Class participation goes beyond merely asking questions, though. It's a matter of showing intellectual curiosity.。

大学英语3第一单元试题(含答案)
Online HomeWork_U1B3I. Reading ComprehensionSection A Fast ReadingBack in a tiny village near Nuremberg, lived a family with eighteen children. Just to keep food on the table for the family members, the father worked almost eighteen hours a day. Two of Albrecht Durer the Elder’s children, Albrecht and Albert, wanted to pursue talent for art, but they knew that their father would never be financially able to send either of them to Nuremberg to study at the academy.After many discussions, the two boys decided to toss a coin. The loser would go down into the nearby mines and, with his earnings, support his brother while he attended the academy. Then, when that brother who won the coin toss completed his studies, he would support the other brother at the academy, either with the sales of his artwork or, if necessary, also by laboring in the mines.They tossed a coin after coming back from church on a Sunday morning. Albrecht Durer won the toss and went off to Nuremberg. Albert went down into the dangerous mines and financed his brother, whose work at the academy was an almost immediate sensation. Albrecht’s etchings (版画), woodcuts (木刻画) and oils were far better than those of most of his professors, and by the time he graduated, he was beginning to earn considerable fees for his commissioned works.When Albrecht Durer returned to his village, the family held a big dinner to celebrate Albrecht’s homecoming. After the meal, Albrecht rose to drink a toast to his beloved brother for the sacrifice that had enabled Albrecht to fulfill his ambition. He said, “Albert, now it is your turn to go to Nuremberg to pursue your dream, and I will take care of you.”Albert rose and glanced down the long table at the faces he loved, and said softly, “No, brother. Look what four years in the mines have done to my hands! The bones in every finger have been smashed at least once, and lately I have been suffering from arthritis (关节炎) so badly in my right hand that I cannot even hold a glass to return your toast, much less make delicate lines on canvas (画布) with a brush.”By now, Albrecht Durer’s hundreds of masterful portraits, sketches and woodcuts hang in every great museum in the world, but most people are familiar with only one of Albrecht Durer’s works. More than merely being familiar with it, you very well may have a reproduction hanging in your home or office.To pay homage to Albert, Albrecht Durer drew his brother’s hands with palms together and thin fingers stretched skyward. He called his drawing “Hands,” but the entire world immediately opened their hearts to his great masterpiece and named it “The Praying Hands.”Statements based on the passage:T 1. The father of Durer family could not afford any child’s study at the academy.F 2. Albrecht and Albert had to toss a coin to decide who should go to the academy, because one of them had to stay at home and help their father.F 3. Before deciding to toss a coin, Albrecht and Albert had many discussions with their father.T 4. Albrecht achieved great success at the academy, and his works were even better than most of his professors’.F 5. Albrecht decided to support Albert’s study at the academy with the sales of his artwork and by laboring in the mines.F 6. Albert said it was too late for him to go to the academy because he was no longer interested in art after working in the mines for many years.F 7. Although Albrecht had many masterful portraits, only one of them has received popular recognition.T 8. Among Albrecht’s works, “Hands” is the one which is reproduced most.T 9. Albrecht created “Hands” in order to show respect and honor for his brother Albert.F 10. People renamed Albrecht’s drawing “The Praying Hands” because they just wanted to pay homage to his great achievement.Section B Passage ReadingPassage 1Valentine’s Day probably has its origin in the ancient Roman celebration called Lupercalia(牧神节). It was celebrated on February 15. In the Roman calendar February was in the spring. The celebration honored the gods Lupercus and Faunus as well as the twin brothers Romulus and Remus, the legendary founders of Rome. As part of the ceremony the priests paired up young men and women. The girls’ names were placed in a box and each boy drew a girl’s name. The couple was paired then until the next Lupercalia.In 260 AD the emperor Claudius II, called Claudius the Cruel, decided that young soldiers would only be distracted by marriage and so ordered that young men may not marry. Valentinus (Valentine), a Christian priest, defied the emperor and got married in secret. He was caught and executed on February 14, the eve of Lupercalia. His name became associated with young love forever after. In 496, Pope Gelasius set aside February 14 to honor him as Saint Valentine and it has been St. Valentine’s Day ever since.In the Middle Ages some of the customs of the Lupercalia still persisted in spite of the attempts of the Church to put an end to these non-Christian customs and Christianize the holiday. Both men and women drew names from a bowl to see who their valentines would be. They would wear the names on their sleeves for a week. Today we still sometimes “wear our hearts on our sleeves” when we cannot conceal our feelings.In the 1600s, it became common to give flowers, particularly the rose, as a sign of love as the “language of flowers”. This came to Europe from Turkey. The color and placement of the rose held a special significance--a red rose, for example, meant beauty. Flowers have been part of Valentine’s Day ever since.D 11.

It is caused by a tiny worm which can penetrate the skin of a human being and cause a potentially serious illness. The larvae (幼虫) of these worms live in certain types of snails. When they are ready, the larvae leave the snails and enter the bodies of men and animals.In many African rivers there is a large animal called a hippopotamus. It looks rather like an enormous sausage with short legs and a big mouth. Hippos spend much of their time in the river and they do not seem to serve any purpose. Because of this, some African governments ordered that the great animals should be shot on sight to provide meat for local people. When hunters killed most of the hippos in some areas, the number of cases of the disease increased rapidly. There were outbreaks of the disease in areas which had not previously experienced it. At first, the health authorities could not understand the reason why the disease had spread. They made investigations and discovered some very surprising facts.When they are in the water, hippos keep the muddy water in motion because they move about frequently. When they climb up on the river bank, they go in single file, making natural channels down which rain water can flow into the river. Without the hippos, mud gathered in the rivers and caused them to run over their banks. At the same time, rain water was unable to drain into the rivers easily, and this helped to produce floods. Certain types of water snail breed rapidly on flooded land, carrying with them the larvae which spread schistosomiasis.Now African governments are importing hippos so that Nature can do her work properly and keep the water snails under control. This is one example of what happens when Man interferes with the work of Nature.A 16. We know that a potentially serious illness is caused when ______.A. the skin of a human being is penetrated by a tiny wormB. the larvae of snails enter the bodies of human beingsC. human beings keep pet snailsD. human beings eat too much meat of hipposD 17. Why were hippos shot to death in Africa?A. Because they look like sausages with short legs and big mouth.B. Because some governments wanted to provide meat for local people.C. Because there were too many hippos in the river.D. Because they were considered useless.A 18. Why did schistosomiasis spread in some areas in Africa?A. Because many hippos were killed.B. Because there were too many channels in the river.C. Because the number of the larvae was increased.D. Because the water snails were kept under control.D 19. According to the passage, which of the following is true about African governments?A. They didn’t build enough channels to drain the floods.B. They couldn’t find out the connection between hippos and the spread of schistosomiasis.C. They are trying to kill water snails which carry the larvae with schistosomiasis.D. They are trying to control the spread of schistosomiasis in an eco-friendly way.C 20. Nature cannot do her work in a satisfactory way if ______.A. too many hippos are killedB. governments interfere with local peopleC. man interferes with the work of natureD. a disease spreadsSection C Reading in DepthIn the 1990s, everyone believed that education was the key to economic success. A college degree, even a postgraduate degree, was G for everyone who wanted a good job as one of those “symbolic analysts”.But computers are proficient at analyzing symbols; it is the messiness of the real world that they have trouble with. Therefore, many of the jobs that once required a college degree have been E . The others can be done by any intelligent person, whether or not he has studied literature.This trend should have been K in 1996, when “downsizing”suddenly became news. Because, for the first time, white-collar, college-educated workers were being fired in large J , even while skilled mechanists and other blue-collar workers were in great D. This should have signaled that the days of the ever-rising wage premiums for people with higher education were over.Eventually, the eroding payoff of higher education created a C in education itself. Why should a student put himself through four years of college and several years of postgraduate work to A academic credentials with little monetary value? Nowadays, jobs that require only 6 or 12 months of vocational training pay nearly as much as if not more than a job that requires a master’s degree, and pay more than one requiring a Ph.D.So F in colleges and universities has dropped almost two-thirds since its peak at the turn of this century. Today a place like Harvard is, as it was in the 19th century, more of a social institution than a O one--a place for children of the wealthy to M their social graces and befriend others of their class.II.

Once she could not even pick up the phone bill and had to ask her parents to loan her some money.Fortunately, through her own hard work, she has now got through the most difficult time.She is determined to continue pursuing her vision of a better life.Recent Changes in Chinese Family Life (Model paper) Great changes have taken place in Chinese family life in the past twenty years. In my parents' words, the difference between their childhood and mine is as vast as that between heaven and earth.When my parents were young, there was no TV, no computers nor any other electronic appliances in their home. Their food was simple and their clothing plain. What is unbelievable to young people today is that they seldom dined out in a restaurant, or traveled to a scenic spot for a holiday.In contrast to family life one generation ago, each family in China today has at least one TV set and many have been equipped with telephones, computers, even cars. While the senior members of a family watch films on TV at home, the younger members like to play computer games or talk to their friends who may live thousands of miles from them.The changes in Chinese family life mirror the economic development of our country. Without the prosperity of the whole country, our family life would probably be just the same as before. Times have changed, and changed, most would surely agree with me, for the better. (194 words)。

Of major concern to Amtrak and its advertising agency DDB Needham, were the long-distance western 31 where ridership had been declining significantly.At one time, trains were the only practical way to cross the vast areas of the west. Trains were fast, luxurious, and quiteconvenient 32 to other forms of transportation existing at the time. However, times changed and the automobile became America’s standar d of convenience. Also, air travel had easily established itself as the fastest method of traveling great distances. Therefore, the task for DDB Needham was to encourage consumers to consider other 33 of train travel in order to change their attitudes and increase the likelihood that trains would be considered for travel in the west.Two portions of total market were 34 : A) anxious fliers—those concerned 35 safety, relaxation, and cleanliness and B) travel-lovers—those viewing themselves as relaxed, 36, and interested in the travel experience as part of their vacation. The agency then developed a campaign that focused on travel experiences such as freedom, escape, relaxation, and enjoyment of the great western outdoors. It stressedexperiences 37 by using the trains and portrayed western train trips as wonderful adventures.Advertisements showed pictures of the beautiful 38 that could be enjoyed along some of the more famous western routes and emphasized the romantic names of some of these trains (Empire Builder, etc.). These ads were strategically placed among family-oriented TV shows and programs 39 nature and America in order to most affectively reach target audiences. Results wereimpressive.

It speeded up physical expansion, it sorted out people and land uses, and it accelerated the inherent instability of urban life. By opening vast areas of unoccupied land for residential expansion, the omnibuses, horse railways, commuter trains and electric trolleys pulled settled regions outward two or four times more distance from city centers than they were in the pre-modern era. In 1850, for example, the borders of Boston lay scarcely two miles from the old business district; by the turn of the century the radius (半径范围) extended ten miles. Now those who could afford it could live far removed from the old city center and still commuter there for work, shopping, and entertainment. The new accessibility of land around the outer edge of almost every major city sparked an explosion of real estate development and fueled what we now know as urban sprawl. Between 1890 and 1920, for example, some 250,000 new residential lots were recorded within the borders of Chicago, most of them located in remote areas. Overthe same period, another 550,000 were plotted outside the city limits but within the metropolitanarea.Anxiousto take advantage of the possibilities of commuting, real-estate developers added 800,000 potential building sites to the Chicago region in just thirty years—lots that could have housed five to six million people.Of course, many were never occupied, there was always a huge surplus subdivided, but vacant land around Chicago and other cities. These excesses underscore a feature of residential expansion related to the growth of mass transportation: urban sprawl was essentially unplanned. It was carried out by thousands of small investors who paid little heed to coordinated land use or tofuture land users. Those who purchasedand prepared land for residential purposes, particularly land near or outside city borders where transit lines and middle-class inhabitants were anticipated, did so to create demand as much as to respond to it. Chicago is a prime example of this process. Real estate subdivision there proceeded much faster than population growth.41. The passage is mainly concerned with _____.A) types of mass transportationB) instability of urban lifeC) how supply and demand determine land useD) the effects of mass transportation on urbanexpansion42. The author mentions all of the following as effectsof mass transportation on cities EXCEPT _____.A) growth in city areaB) separation of commercial and residential districts C) changes in life in the inner cityD) increasing standards of living43.

We started to learn language when we were born. However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they don't have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their ethnic identity and, even more, they are ignoring their parents whose English is not very good.I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native language in their new country, but this doesn't help very much in getting a good job. My aunt didn't teach Korean to her children in order to help them succeed in the US; she did so, hopefully, to help them establish a Korean identity. Though the second generation is born in the new country, they often get confused about their identity. My cousins told me that when they visited Korea a few years ago, they felt different from other Koreans. They could even feel it just strolling around the street because they wore different clothes.We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make an effort not to be ignored by their children and to make their children understand their heritage by teaching them the parents' language. This is important in helping the second generation establish their identity.1.Which people are having trouble with language?A. Natives.B. People of the 2nd generation.C. People when born.D. Immigrants.2.Why are children ignoring their parents?A. Children have lost their identity.B. Parents cause children to suffer.C. They speak different languages.D. They have different job levels.3.The author's aunt taught Korean ________.A. so she could preserve her languageB. so she would have a job in AmericaC. to help children succeed in their new countryD. to help children keep their Korean identity4.The author's cousins felt ________.A. they were not similar to people in KoreaB. they could not get a job in AmericaC. it was all right to look and feel differentD. it was important to keep their identity5. A proper title for this passage is ________.A. The Identity of the Second GenerationB. Korean Problems in AmericaC. Learning a New Language in the USD. Keeping Your Culture in a New LandQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage or dialog.Two similar-sounding English words caused trouble for a man who wanted to fly from Los Angeles to Oakland, California. His problems began at the airport in Los Angeles. He thought he heard his flight announced, so he walked to the gate, showed his ticket, and got on the plane. After flying for twenty minutes, the man began to worry. Oakland was north of Los Angeles, but the plane seemed to be heading west, and when he looked out his window all he could see was ocean. "Is this plane going to Oakland?" he asked the flight attendant (服务员). The flight attendant was shocked. "No," she said. "We're going to Auckland-Auckland, New Zealand."English is not the only language with similar-sounding words. Other languages, too, have words that can cause mistakes, especially for foreigners.Auckland and Oakland. When similar-sounding words cause a mistake, probably the best thing to do is just laugh and learn from it. Of course, sometimes it's hard to laugh. The man who traveled to Auckland instead of Oakland didn't feel like laughing. But even that mistake turned out all right in the end. The airline (航空公司) paid for the man's hotel room and meals in New Zealand and for his flight back to California. "Oh well," the man later said, "I always wanted to see New Zealand."6.The main topic of this passage is ________.A. mistakes made by people in airportsB. troubles experienced by foreigners in a new countryC. difficulties had by people when taking a planeD. problems caused by words that sound alike7.She told him the plane would arrive in ________.A. OaklandB. AucklandC. Los AngelesD. California8.The man realized something was wrong when ________.A. he landed in Oakland, CaliforniaB. he saw that the flight attendant was shockedC. he noticed the direction of the planeD. he walked up to the gate9.The sentence "Oh well, I always wanted to see New Zealand."reflects ________.A. the man's sense of humorB. the man's frustrationC. the man's disappointmentD. the man's despair10.According to the passage one proper way to deal with amistake caused by similar-sounding words is ________.A. to have a sharp earB. to learn a good pronunciationC. to speak clearly and slowlyD. to laugh and learn from itQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage or dialog.Yinlan looked at the people sitting around the table and smiled with satisfaction. Everyone in her family was there—her children, her grandchildren, and her new great-grandson, just one month old. Her whole family had come to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival(节日).Two days after the Harvest Moon Festival, Yinlan died peacefully in her sleep. Her family was sad but at the same time grateful. They felt happy that they had been able to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival with her one last time. Everyone said it was remarkable that Yinlan had died just two days after the holiday.Actually, the timing of Yinlan's death was not remarkable at all. Recently sociologists (社会学家) studied the death rate among elderly Chinese women in California. They discovered that the death rate drops 35 percent before the Harvest Moon Festival and then rises 35 percent. Sociologists believe that these changes in death rate show the mind's power over the body. The Harvest Moon Festival, when families gather, is important to elderly Chinese women. Apparently some women are able to postpone (推延) their deaths so that they can celebrate the festival one last time.The idea that people can postpone the time of their deaths is not new. Many families tell stories of a relative who held on to life until after an important event. The stories people tell, however, are just that: stories. They are not proof that people can postpone their deaths. The sociologists' work is important because the sociologists studied facts, not stories. The facts—the drop and rise in death rates—prove that people really can postpone their deaths.11.When did Yilan die?A. During the Harvest Moon Festival.B. Before going to sleep.C. Just before the Harvest Moon Festival.D. A couple days after the Harvest Moon Festival.12.The writer tells us the story of Yilan to let us know that_________.A. the Harvest Moon Festival is important to elderly Chinese womenB. Chinese families get together to enjoy the Harvest Moon FestivalC. families are often sad during the Harvest Moon FestivalD. people may be able to put off death for an important event Array13.Where did the study take place?A. China.B. Yilan's home.C. Festival grounds.D. California.14.What does the author describe as "not new"?A. The work of sociologists.B. Proof of postponing death.C. The Harvest Moon Festival.D. Stories of putting off death.15.What provides us with proof?A. The stories of family members.B. The numbers showing death rates.C. The important events.D. The postponing of death.Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage or dialog.Today's trumpet (喇叭,小号) is one of the world's oldest instruments. It is the result of many centuries of development. Although it looks nothing like the ones of old days, there are many similarities. All trumpets are hollow tubes (管) They are all blown. And they all use the player's lips to produce their basic sound. The trumpet developed as players and makers worked to improve its design, size, shape, material, and method of construction. Theywanted to create an instrument that would produce a beautiful andattractive tone, enable the performer to play all the notes of the scale, extend the range higher and lower, make it possible to play more difficult music, and in general, be easier to play well. The remarkable way in which the modern trumpet achieves these goals is a measure of the success of all those who struggled to perfect this magnificent instrument.The trumpet is actually the leading member of an entire family of related instruments. There are trumpets of several different sizes, and in several different keys. There are cornets (短号), bugles (军号), flugelhorns (粗管短号), and a number of others that are all similar to the trumpet in the way they are made and played.The trumpet family is much more than a group of related instruments that can stir one with their sound, or narrow tubes of metal capable of producing a variety of musical sounds. It is a link to many different periods of history and to people of many cultures. From the use of trumpets in ancient religious ceremonies to the part they play in modern rock bands, the trumpet family of instruments has much to tell about civilization and its development.16.How do trumpets all resemble each other?A. They require the same force when blowing them.B. They make the same sound when playing them.C. They use a player's lips to make a sound.D. They have the same size of hollow tube.17.Why did players and makers want to improve the trumpet?A. They wanted an instrument that'd be easy to play.B. They wanted an instrument to play easy music.C. They wanted an instrument of different sizes.D. They wanted an instrument that looked attractive.18.What is the trumpet the leading member of?A. Trumpet family instruments.。

Traditional colleges and universities have developed distance learning programs to accommodate individuals who would not otherwise have the time or funds to earn an advanced degree・Online programs require the same amount of study and work as a classroom program・ If you are under the impression that courses offered online will be a walk in the park, think again! Online degree programs are often more difficult than traditional university programs due to the fact the work and study is left up to the student. Time management skills are crucial, since there is not a particular time of the day set aside specifically for study. It may take some time to become accustomed to this method of scholarship, but the pros of online classes may outweigh the cons in your situation・The main difference between online degree programs and traditional higher education is the location of learning. Instead of being confined to a stuffy classroom filled with students, these online classes have a more personal feeling. While many students would be hesitant to speak one to one with a class instructor, online programs find their students more willing to contact their professors via e-mail. This great participation encourages better understanding of the course material・ Of course, not attending a class also comes with additional barriers. A student must be equipped with time management skills in order to succeed in an online class. Students that lack the proper time management skills may find themselves overwhelmed with course work at the end of the semester or falling behind in their studies.Whether you choose to attend a traditional college or university or enroll in an online higher education program, the chances of success are equal. In the end, it is up to you in order to complete the course of study and earn your degree・ For busy individuals or[共5题](1)According to the passage, the main difference between online degree programs and traditional higher education is _________ •[本题2分](A)the requirement for time management skills(B)the place where students choose to study(C)the tuition students have to pay(D)the knowledge students learn from the class你选择的答案:B [正确]正确答案:B(2)Which of the following is TRUE about online degree programs?[本题2 分](A)Online degree programs are very easy for most of the students・(B)The students in online classes are shy to communicate with the professors・(C)Online degree programs can help students make progress in understanding the course material.(D)Online degree programs are better than traditional higher education.你选择的答案:C [正确]正确答案:C(3)Which of the following is NOT the advantage of online degree programs?[木题2 分](A)Students can benefit from the flexible time-tables provided by online degree programs.(B)Students can enjoy more personal feeling from online degree programs.(C)Students have to stay in the classroom for a whole day.(D)It\ much easier for students to exchange ideas with the teachers via e-mail・你选择的答案:C [正确]正确答案:C(4)To succeed in online degree programs, it is necessary for the students to _________ ・[力7题2 分](A)make a plan on how to use their time(B)communicate with the classmates(C)listen carefully to the teachers(D)finish their homework 你选择的答案:A [正确]正确答案:A(5)Online degree programs are most appropriate to ________ ・[本题2 分](A)the people who are unemployed(B)the people who lack time management skills(C)the people who have more free time(D)the people who want to earn an advanced degree but busy with their own business 你选择的答案:D [正确]正确答案:D42.Successful and happy distance learners have a few characteristics in comm on. Compare yourself to the following list to determine whether or not online classes are a good fit for your personality and habits・1.Successful distance learners do just as well, if not better, without people looking over their shoulder. While some people need teachers to keep them motivated and on-task, distance learners are able to motivate themselves. They realize that they will never be face-to-face with the people who give them assignments and grade their work, but they don" need others to encourage them. The most successful students are self-motivated and set their own goals.2.Successful distance learners never (or at least rarely) put off their assignments or wait until the last moment to write their papers. These students enjoy the freedom of working at their own pace and appreciate the ability to complete their work in as much time as it takes them, instead of waiting for an entire class. However, they understand that putting off their work too often can end lip adding months, if not years, to their studies.3.Successful distance learners have good reading comprehension skills・ While most people learn by listening to lectures and taking notes, the majority of distance learners are expected to master material through reading alone・ Although some distance learning courses offer video recordings and audio clips, most programs require that students understand a large amount of information that is only available through written text. These students are able to comprehend texts at the college level without the direct guidance of a teacher.4.Successful distance learners can resist constant distractions. Whether it's the phone ringing off the hook, the kids screaming in the kitchen, or the temptation of TV programs, everyone faces distractions. Successful students know how to filter out the constant disturbances that threaten their progress・ They feel comfortable turning down an invitation or letting the machine pick up the phone when they know there is work to be done.[共5题](1)Which of the following is NOT included in the successful distance learners J characteristics?

This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercise-and as a result, we are ageing unnecessarily soon.Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age, and how the process of ageing could be slowed down・With a team of colleagues at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain volumes of a thousand people of different ages and varying occupations・Computer technology enabled the researchers to obtain precise measurements of the volume of the front and side sections of the brain, which relate to intellect and emotion, and determine the human character. (The rear section of the brain, which controls functions like eating and breathing, does not contract with age, and one can continue living without intellectual or emotional faculties.) Contraction of front and side parts was observed in some subjects in their thirties, but it was still not evident in some sixty-and-seventy-year-olds.Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple remedy to the contraction normally associated with age-using the head.The findings show in general terms that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. Those least at risk, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White collar workers doing routine work in government offices are, however, as likely to have shrinking brains as the farm worker, bus driver and shop assistant.Matsuzawa^s findings show that thinking can prevent the brain from shrinking・ Blood must circulate properly in the head to supply the fresh oxygen the brain cells need. “The best way to maintain good blood circulation is through using the brain/9he says. “Think hard and engage in conversation. Don't rely on pocket calculators?5[共5题](1 )The team of doctors wanted to find out ________ •[本题2 分](A)why certain people age sooner than others(B)how to make people live longer(C)the size of certain people's brains(D)which people are most intelligent你选择的答案:A [正确]正确答案:A(2)W hat are their research findings based on?「木题2 分](A)A survey of farmers in northern Japan.(B)Tests performed on a thousand old people.(C)The study of brain volumes of different people・(D)The latest development of computer technology・你选择的答案:c [正确]⑶The doctor J s tests show that ___________ .[本题2 分](A)our brains shrink as we grow older(B)the front section of the brain does not shrink(C)sixty-year-olds have better brains than thirty-year-olds(D)some people's brains have contracted more than other people's你选择的答案:A [正确]⑷The word "subjects” in paragraph 5 means____________ ・ 1 本题2 分](A)something to be considered(B)branches of knowledge studied(C)persons chosen to be studied in an experiment(D)any member of a state except the supreme ruler你选择的答案:c [正确](5)According to the passage, which people seem to age slower than the others?[本题2 分](A)Lawyers.(B)Farmers.(C)Clerks.(D)Shop assistants.你选择的答案:A [正确]44.Soccer is played by millions of people all over the world, but there have only been few players who were truly great. Howdid these players get that way—was it through training and practice, or are great players bom, not made? First, these players came from places that have had famous stars in the past—players that a young boy can look up to and try to imitate. In the history of soccer, only six countries have ever won the World Cup一three from South America and three from Western Europe・ There has never been a great national team——or a really great player——from North America or from Asia. Second, these players have all had years of practice in the game. Alfredo Di Stefano was the son of a soccer player, as was Pele. Most players begin playing the game at the age of three or four- Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighborhood—a poor, crowded area where a boy,s dream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman, but to become a rich, famous athlete or entertainer. For example, Liverpool which produced the Beatles (甲壳虫乐1钦),had one of the best English soccer teams in recent years. Pele practiced in the street with a "ball” made of rags. And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall in the slums (贫民窟)of Belfast.All great players have a lot in common, but that doesn^t explain why they are great. Hundreds of boys played in those Brazilian streets, but only one became Pele. The greatest players are born with some unique quality that sets them apart from all the others-[共5题](l )According to the author, which of the following statements is TRUE?[木题2 分](A)Great soccer players are born, not made.(B)Truly great players are rare.(C)Only six countries have ever had famous soccer stars・(D)Soccer is the least popular sport in North America and Asia你选择的答案:B [正确]⑵The word “tricks” at the end of Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to____________ •[本题2 分](A)"experience^(B)"cheating"(C)“skills”(D)"(raining"你选择的答案:C [正确](3)_________________________________________________________ Pele is cited as an example in the second paragraph to illustrate that _______________________________________________________ •[本题2 分](A)famous soccer players live in slum areas(B)people in poor areas are bom with some unique quality(C)children in poor areas start playing football at the age of 3 or 4(D)many great soccer players come from poor areas你选择的答案:D [正确](4)From the statement “only one became Pe le v in the last paragraph, we can learn that ___________ •[本题2 分](A)Pele is the greatest soccer player(B)the greatest players are born with some unique quality(C)Pele's birthplace sets him apart from all the other players(D)the greatest players practice with "balls" made of rags你选择的答案:B [正确](5)Which of the following is NOT included in the factors of a soccer player" s success?[本题2 分](A)his family background(B)his neighborhood (C) his practice (D) his height 你选择的答案:D [正确]45.With 11 Internet courses and three master's degrees to his credit, 28-year-old Charles Sturek _(1)_ the panic he felt during his first week of e-class.

Rather, the activity must be (17)___ in part for the purpose of doing it together with my friend, and this is the point of saying that (18)___. This raises the following questions: (19)___, and what is it about friendship that makes shared activity so central to it? The common answer to this second question (which helps pin down an answer to the first) is that shared activity is important (20)___ that is characteristic of friendship as such, and the "shared" pursuit of such shared interests is therefore an important part of friendship.11.accounts12.interact13.engage14. include15. relevant16.fence17. pursued18. the shared activity must be motivated, at least in part, by the friendship itself.19.in what sense can such activity be said to be "shared,"20. because friends normally have shared interests as a part of the intimacyReading ComprehensionDirections:There are two passages in this part.

(20 points)Passage OneImagine a world in which there was suddenly no emotion — a world in which human beings could feel no love or happiness, no terror or hate. Try to imagine the consequences of such a transformation. People might not be able to stay alive: knowing neither joy nor pleasure, anxiety nor fear, they would be as likely to repeat acts that hurt them as acts that were beneficial. They could not learn: they could not benefit from experience because this emotionless worldwould lack rewards and punishments. Society would soon disappear: people would be as likely to harm one another as to provide help and support. Human relationships would not exist: in a world without friends or enemies(敌人), there could be no marriage, affection among companions, or bonds among members of groups. Society's economic underpinnings (支柱) would be destroyed: since earning $10 million would be no more pleasant than earning $10, there would be no incentive(激情) to work. In fact, there would be no incentives of any kind. For as we will see, incentives imply a capacity to enjoy them. In such a world, the chances that the human species(种、类)would survive are next to zero, because emotions are the basic instrument of our survival and adaptation. Emotions structure the world for us in important ways. As individuals, we categorize(分类)objects on the basis of our emotions. True we consider the length, shape, size, or texture, but an object's physical aspects are less important than what it has done or can do to us — hurt us, surprise us, anger us or make us joyful. We also use categorizations colored by emotions in our families, communities, and overall society. Out of our emotional experiences with objects and events comes a social feeling of agreement that certain things and actions are "good" and others are "bad", and we apply these categories to every aspect of our social life — from what foods we eat and what clothes we wear to how we keep promises and which people our group will accept. In fact, society exploits(激发)our emotional reactions and attitudes, such as loyalty (忠诚), morality, pride, shame, guilt, fear and greed; in order to maintain itself it gives high rewards to individuals who perform important tasks such as surgery, makes heroes out of individuals for unusual or dangerous achievements such as flying fighter planes in a war, and uses the legal penal (刑法的) system to make people afraid to engage in antisocial acts.21. The reason why people might not be able to stay alive in a world without emotion is that __B_____.A. they would not be able to tell the texture of objectsB. they would not know what was beneficial and what was harmful to themC. they would not be happy with a life without loveD. they would do things that hurt each other's feelings22. According to the passage, people's learning activities are possible because they ___C____.A. believe that emotions are fundamental for them to stay aliveB. benefit from providing help and support to one anotherC. enjoy being rewarded for doing the right thingD. know what is vital to the progress of society23. It can be inferred from the passage that the economic foundation of society is dependent on _____C__.A. the ability to make moneyB. the will to work for pleasureC. the capacity to enjoy incentives(刺激)D. the categorizations of our emotional experiences4. Emotions are significant(重要的) for man's survival(生存) and adaptation(适应) because ___B___.A. they provide the means by which people view the size or shape of objectsB. they are the basis for the social feeling of agreement by which society is maintainedC. they encourage people to perform dangerous achievementsD. they generate more love than hate among people25. The emotional aspects(方面) of an object are more important than its physical aspects in that they ______D_.A. help society exploit(剥削) its members for profitB. encourage us to perform important tasksC. help to perfect the legal and penal(刑罚的) systemD. help us adapt our behavior to the world surrounding us Passage TwoSomeday a stranger will read your e-mail without your permission or scan the website you've visited. Or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits.In fact, it's likely some of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without your permisson? It might be a spouse, a girlfriend, a marketing company, a boss, a cop or a criminal. Whoever it is, they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen — the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked.Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, that it's important to reveal yourself to friends, family and lovers in stages, at appropriate times. But few boundaries remain. The digital bread crumbs (碎屑) you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are, where you are and what you like. In some cases, a simple Google search can reveal what you think. Like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret.The key question is: Does that matter?For many Americans, the answer apparently is "no".When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it. A survery found an overwhelming pessimism about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is "slipping away, and that bothers me."But people say one thing and do another. Only a tiny fraction of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to preserve their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths (收费站) to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy economist Alessandro Acauisti has run a series of tests that reveal people will surrender personal information like Socail Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon (优惠卷).But privacy does matter — at least sometimes. It's like health: When you have it, you don't notice it. Only when it's gone do you wish you'd done more to protect it.26. What does the author mean by saying "the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked" (the underlined part in Para. 2)? AA. People's personal information is easily accessed without their knowledge.B. In the 21st century people try every means to look into others' secrets.C. People tend to be more frank with each other in the information age.D. Criminals are easily caught on the spot with advanced technology.27. What would psychologists advise on the relationships between friends? CA. Friends should open their hearts to each other.B. Friends should always be faithful to each other.C. There should be a distance even between friends.D. There should be fewer disputes between friends.28. Why does the author say "we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret" (the underlined part in Para. 3)? BA. Modern society has finally evolved into an open society.B. People leave traces around when using modern technology.C. There are always people who are curious about others' affairs.D. Many search engines profit by revealing people's identities.29. What do most Americans do with regard to privacy protection? DA. They change behaviors that might disclose their identity.B. They use various loyalty cards for business transactions.C. They rely more and more on electronic devices.D. They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it.30. According to the passage, privacy is like health in that ___.DA. people will make every effort to keep itB. its importance is rarely understoodC. it is something that can easily be lostD. people don't cherish it until they lose itVocabulary and StructureDirections: Each of the following sentences is provided with four choices.

Such __D__ the case, there were no grounds to justify your complaints.A. wasB. had beenC. would beD. beingA final common thread in philosophical accounts of friendship is shared activity. The backgroundintuition is this: never to share activity with someone and in this way to interact with him is not to have the kind of relationship with him that could be called friendship, even if you each care for the other for his sake. Rather, friends engage in joint pursuits, in part motivated by the friendship itself.These joint pursuits can include not only such things as making something together, playing together, and talking together, but also pursuits that essentially involve shared experiences, such as going to the opera together. Yet for these pursuits to be properly shared in the relevant sense of "share," they cannot involve activities motivated simply by self interest: by, for example, the thought that I'll help you build your fence today if you later help me paint my house. Rather, the activity must be pursued in part for the purpose of doing it together with my friend, and this is the point of saying that the shared activity must be motivated, at least in part, by the friendship itself.This raises the following questions: in what sense can such activity be said to be "shared," and what is it about friendship that makes shared activity so central to it? The common answer to this second question (which helps pin down an answer to the first) is that shared activity is important because friends normally have shared interests as a part of the intimacy that is characteristic of friendship as such, and the "shared" pursuit of such shared interests is therefore an important part of friendship.。

Boys with Eating Disorders (紊乱,失调)Why isn't Tony Eating?No one knows what Tony does at lunchtime. His friends all gather at the dining hall where they share stories and eat. They talk about their lives and the things they have seen in movies or read in books. But Tony doesn't care about these things, and he doesn't join them. In fact, there is only one thing on Tony's mind-building the perfect body. And while his friends are chatting away, Tony is in the gym by himself, lifting weights. Now, he is able to lift more than ever. He has also measured his arms and legs and weighed himself. He knows he is in the best shape of his life. But it's not enough.Introduction-a real problemPeople say that women and girls are the ones who have body size issues, the ones who develop eating disorders, and the ones affected most by the media pressure. It is true that women and girls are affected more, but the same issues also affect men and boys. Experts believe the number of boys affected is increasing and that many cases may not be reported, since males are reluctant to acknowledge any illness mostly associated with females.Where it comes fromThere is more and more media pressure for men and boys to take on the look of the well-muscled athletes and actors. Males are becoming uncomfortable about their physical appearance and self-image. Sports, health, and fitness magazines focus on the importance of having muscles and the methods to obtain those perfect sportsbodies. Boys tend to do a great deal of weight training and, if they do not see immediate results, they often turn to using steroids (类固醇) and vitamins that advertise unbelievable muscle gain.The average boy cannot come near meeting the impossible "standard" of the media's male body perfection. They are not going to be Arnold Schwarzenegger or some other action star, or have the well-muscled body of athletes. The most popular magazines carry images of women and men on the covers that represent about 3 percent of the population. Obviously, that leaves 97 percent who cannot measure up to that level of a desired body image. Magazines, especially those aimed at men and boys, spread the "body building" message around. Advertisements promote weight lifting, body building or muscle toning. The V-shaped body with great muscles is emphasized as the ideal.The need to make weight for a sport like boxing can cause eating disorders. The demand for pills (药片) that give energy and decrease a person's desire to eat is high among those needing to make weight. Weight training, sports, and conversation with friends can lead boys to abnormal eating habits, which can lead to eating disorders.Even the toys they play with create pressure. The toy action figures have more muscles today than they did in the past. Their bodies are setting unrealistic ideals for boys in much the same way dolls have been blamed for giving an unrealistic body ideal for girls.One of the side effects of this body consciousness for both boys and girls is the tendency to turn to smoking to keep their weight down. Overweight boys in the age range of 9 to 14 were 65% more likely to think about or try smoking than their peers. The same study found that boys who worked out every day in order to lose weight were twice as likely to experiment with tobacco. Males with poor body image are also more likely to take drugs and get angry easily.The effects of a poor body imageIt's not uncommon for people who think poorly of their bodies to have problems in other areas of their lives, including careers and relationships. One's feelings of self-worth, behavior, and social confidence can all be related to either a good or a bad body image. How you see yourself affects every part of your life.More and more health-care professionals are starting to realize the degree that boys can be influenced by body image. One recent study showed that of boys between the ages of 7 and 9, fifty percent wanted to reshape their body. This percentage (百分比) increases as they reach their teens and want to take part in sports and impress girls. It is something that can follow you throughout life if you do not learn to understand that there is more to you than your muscles and body shape.Advice for people with a poor body imageIf you are a boy or a young man who is worried too much about how your body looks, you should remember that your body is just one part of who you are. And it is not even a very important part. You are not just what your body means. Your worth as a person, or your identity as a man, is not determined by your weight or body shape. Develop your potential. Think about your unique gifts. Meaningful relationships, well-established goals, and kindheartedness to others lead to a balanced life and better feelings of one's self. An over-muscled body just doesn't do these.And if you are still having trouble with doubts or concerns about your body, rather than work out more or eat less, see a doctor about your problems. By talking to a psychologist, you may reduce your anxieties, and finally make them a thing of the past so that you can turn to much more important things in life. Psychologists have had a great deal of success stories in treating young men with the same problem, and, most likely, they will be able to help you as well.1.Tony is most concerned with ________________.A. having an eating disorderB. eating his lunchC. building a perfect bodyD. gaining weight2.________________ are more affected by the body size issues.A.

We started to learn language when we were born. However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they don't have the same native language. Also, the secondgeneration is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their ethnic identity and, even more, they are ignoring their parents whose English is not very good.I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native language in their new country, but this doesn't help very much in getting a good job. My aunt didn't teach Korean to her children in order to help them succeed in the US; she did so, hopefully, to help them establish a Korean identity. Though the second generation is born in the new country, they often get confused about their identity. My cousins told me that when they visited Korea a few years ago, they felt different from other Koreans. They could even feel it just strolling around the street because they wore different clothes.We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make an effort not to be ignored by their children and to make their children understand their heritage by teaching them the parents' language. This is important in helping the second generation establish their identity.1.Which people are having trouble with language?A. Natives.B. People of the 2nd generation.C. People when born.D. Immigrants.2.Why are children ignoring their parents?A. Children have lost their identity.B. Parents cause children to suffer.C. They speak different languages.D. They have different job levels.3.The author's aunt taught Korean ________.A. so she could preserve her languageB. so she would have a job in AmericaC. to help children succeed in their new countryD. to help children keep their Korean identity4.The author's cousins felt ________.A. they were not similar to people in KoreaB. they could not get a job in AmericaC. it was all right to look and feel differentD. it was important to keep their identity5. A proper title for this passage is ________.A. The Identity of the Second GenerationB. Korean Problems in AmericaC. Learning a New Language in the USD. Keeping Your Culture in a New LandQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage or dialog.Yinlan looked at the people sitting around the table and smiled with satisfaction. Everyone in her family was there—her children, her grandchildren, and her new great-grandson, just one month old. Her whole family had come to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival (节日).Two days after the Harvest Moon Festival, Yinlan died peacefully in her sleep. Her family was sad but at the same time grateful. They felt happy that they had been able to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival with her one last time. Everyone said it was remarkable that Yinlan had died just two days after the holiday.Actually, the timing of Yinlan's death was not remarkable at all. Recently sociologists (社会学家) studied the death rate among elderly Chinese women in California. They discovered that the death rate drops 35 percent before the Harvest Moon Festival and then rises 35 percent. Sociologists believe that these changes in death rate show the mind's power over the body. The Harvest Moon Festival, when families gather, is important to elderly Chinese women. Apparently some women are able to postpone (推延) their deaths so that they can celebrate the festival one last time.The idea that people can postpone the time of their deaths is not new. Many families tell stories of a relative who held on to life until after an important event. The stories people tell, however, are just that: stories. They are not proof that people can postpone their deaths. The sociologists' work is important because the sociologists studied facts, not stories. The facts—the drop and rise in death rates—prove that people really can postpone their deaths.6.When did Yilan die?A. During the Harvest Moon Festival.B. Before going to sleep.C. Just before the Harvest Moon Festival.D. A couple days after the Harvest Moon Festival.7.The writer tells us the story of Yilan to let us know that_________.A. the Harvest Moon Festival is important to elderly ChinesewomenB. Chinese families get together to enjoy the Harvest MoonFestivalC. families are often sad during the Harvest Moon FestivalD. people may be able to put off death for an important event8.Where did the study take place?A. China.B. Yilan's home.C. Festival grounds.D. California.9.What does the author describe as "not new"?A. The work of sociologists.B. Proof of postponing death.C. The Harvest Moon Festival.D. Stories of putting off death.10.What provides us with proof?A. The stories of family members.B. The numbers showing death rates.C. The important events.D. The postponing of death.Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage or dialog.Another example of the dangers of a restricted diet may be seen in the disease known as "beri-beri" (脚气病), which used to affect large numbers of Eastern peoples who lived mainly on rice. In the early years of the 20th century, a Dutch scientist named Eijkman was trying to discover the cause of beri-beri. At first he thought it was transmitted (传送) by a germ (细菌). He was working in a Japanese hospital, where the patients were fed on rice which had had the external husk (壳) removed from the grain, called "white rice." It was thought this would be easier for weak, sick people to digest.Eijkman thought his germ theory was confirmed when he noticed the chickens in the hospital yard, which were fed on scraps (碎片) from the patients' plates, were also showing signs of the disease. He then tried to isolate the germ he thought was causing the disease, but his experiments were interrupted by a hospital official, who ruled that the huskless polished rice was too good for chickens. Thechickens should be fed cheap rice with the external covering still on the grain, called "brown rice."Eijkman noticed that the chickens began to recover on the new diet. He began to consider the possibility that eating brown rice somehow prevented or cured beri-beri—even that a lack of some ingredient in the husk might be the cause of the disease. Indeed this was the case. The element needed to prevent beri-beri was shortly afterwards isolated from rice husks and is now known as Vitamin B.

The main objection tovegetarianism (素食主义) on a long-term basis is the difficulty of getting enough protein—the body-building element in food.If you have ever been without meat or other animal foods for some days or weeks (say, for religious reasons) you will have noticed that you tend to get rather weak physically. You areglad when the fast (禁食) is over and you get your reward of a delicious meat meal.Proteins are built up from about twenty food elements called"amino acids" (氨基酸), which are found in greater amounts in animal protein than in vegetable protein. This means you have to eat a great deal more vegetable than animal food in order to get enough of these amino acids. A great deal of the vegetable food goes to waste in this process and from the physiological (生理学的) point of view there is not much to be said in favor of life-long vegetarianism.The economic side of the question, though, must beconsidered. Vegetable food is much cheaper than animal food.However, since only a small proportion of the vegetable protein is useful for body-building purposes, a consistent vegetarian, ifhe is to gain the necessary 70 grams (克) of protein a day, has to consume a greater bulk of food than his digestive organs can comfortably deal with. In fairness, though, it must be pointed out that vegetarians claim they need far less than 70 grams of protein a day.16.
