about 22 between 2018 and 2020 Electrical engineering physics and economics degrees also make the top 10 all with an average mid-career salary of more than 110000 a yearNot all masters degree holders enjoy anywhere near such optimistic job prospects 前景 or extraordinary pay Biology chemistry and history degrees are toward the bottom of the listbut that doesnt mean theyre useless If youre enthusiastic about these fields the lower pay and slimmer job prospects shouldnt prevent you from pursuing a mastersBefore you make a decision you should bear one thing in mind masters degree-holders dont necessarily earn more than other people in similar jobsso dont base your decision to pursue one on the idea that youll bring in bigger paychecksIts also important to think about work-life balance and employee satisfaction for the common jobs associated with these degrees You need to consider overall happiness Bardaro says If obtaining a masters degree causes an imbalance due to time devoted to education and potentially more stress at work then one will need to decide if these costs are worth it63 Forbes turned to Payscalecom to __________A let users compare their salaries with those of other people in different jobsB see how fast employment was expected to increase between 2018 and 2020C sum up the pay of those graduates with 35 popular degrees in different fieldsD figure out the

safely conclude that __________A obtaining a masters degree is a mustB a masters degree is not always worth pursuingC obtaining a masters degree leads to an imbalance between work and lifeD those with masters degrees are bound to earn more than other people in similar jobsEHe wrote that the human mind is capable of excitement without the application of gross 粗俗的and violent stimulants 刺激物 And it appears that simply reading thosewords by William Wordsworth prove his pointResearchers at the University of Liverpool found the works of Shakespeare and Wordsworth and the like had a beneficial effect on the mind lifting the readers spirits by catching their attention and leading to moments of self-reflection Using equipment they examined the brain activity of volunteers as they read pieces of classical English literature both in their original form and in a more simplified modern translationAnd according to the Sunday Telegraph the experiment showed the more challenging works set off far more electrical activity in the brain than the ordinary versionsThe research also found poetry in particular increased activity in the right hemisphere of the brain an area concerned with autobiographical memory which helped the reader to reflect on and reevaluate their own experiences in light of what they had read The academics said this meant the classics were more useful than self-help booksThe brain responses of 30 volunteers was monitored in the first part of the research as they read Shakespeare in its original and modern formIn one example volunteers read a line from King Lear Afather and a gracious 仁慈的 aged man him have you madded before reading the simpler A father and a gracious aged man him you have enraged 使暴怒Shakespeares use of the adjective mad as a verb caused a higher level of brain activity than the straightforward translationReading classics is not just a matter of style It is a matter of deep versions of experience that promotes the cognitive 认知的 ability said Prof Davis who will present the findings at the North of England education conference in Sheffield this week67 What does the author suggest by saying simply reading those words by William Wordsworth prove his pointA William Wordsworths poems are full of wisdomB It excites readers to read William Wordsworths poemsC Only gross and violent words can arouse peoples excitementD William Wordsworths poems are the application of gross and violent stimulants68 In what way did the researchers make their conclusionA By questionnaireB By online chattingC By lab experimentD By telephone interview69 According to the researchers at the University of Liverpool reading classical works can benefit readers in __________A helping relieve their pressureB helping them focus more on their workC helping them think about themselves carefullyD helping keep their spirits up for a whole day70 Which of the following sets off the most electrical activity in the brainA Reading nursery rhymesB

AChoosing where to live may be one of the biggest decisions you’ll make when you move to Sydney, but you’ll have plenty of help.Temporary arrival accommodationBefore you move to Sydney, we recommend that you book a temporary place to stay. Once you get here, you can look for longer-term accommodation..au/accommodation/short-termOn-campus-residential colleges (fully catered饮食全包的)The University has eight residential colleges on the Camperdown/Darlington Campus, including International House, a residential community of global scholars.

Living in self-catered flats on campus.D. Living in fully catered houses on campus.BEveryone should be so lucky as to have a friend like Francia Raisa. On Thursday, singer and actress Selena Gomez, 25, used Instagram to explain why she was “laying low” this summer. She posted a photo of herself in a hospital bed with her friend Francia Raisa holding hands. She said she recently received a kidney transplant from her best friend because of complications(并发症) from lupus(狼疮), an autoimmune disease, which means it is the result of the immune system attacking normal tissue, including the kidneys, brain, heart and lungs.People with lupus may first experience tiredness, joint pain or a little bit of rash(皮疹) on their bodies and can go for a long time before their doctors realize it is more serious. Many people see two or four doctors before the real problem is picked up. According to Dr. Kyriakos Kirou, roughly a third to one-half of people with lupus develop kidney disease, and up to one in five of them will eventually need a transplant, sometimes because they weren’t treated with effective drugs to prevent the immune system from attacking the kidneys. Though Gomez said that she was “very well now,” she warned about the dangers of not taking medical diagnoses seriously, like she initially did.Her Instagram post also called attention to two major health topics: the need for living organ donators and the fact that Gomez represents three groups more likely to be diagnosed with lupus and lupus-related kidney disease. Nine out of 10 people diagnosed with lupus are women, and most develop the disease between the ages of 15 to 44. And lupus is two to three times more common among women of color, including Hispanic women, according to the Lupus Foundation.Raisa is Latina, and Gomez’s father is of Mexican o rigin. While it’s not essential that the organ donator and receiver be of the same ethnicity, people who share a similar background sometimes are better matched, according to data from the United Network for Organ Sharing.24. What can we learn about Francia Raisa?A. She is lucky.B. She is selfless.C. She is optimistic.D. She is encouraging.25. What is lupus like at its early stage?A. It is deadly.B. It is hard to recognize.C. Its symptoms are psychological.D. It reminds you of a kidney disease.26.Wh at does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. People with lupus.B. Colored women lupus patients.C. Lupus patients with kidney disease.D. Women between the ages of 15 to 44.27.What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?A. Raisa and Gomez have a similar background.B. Gomez has fully recovered thanks to the kidney from Raisa.C. It is vital for the donator and receiver to be of the same race.D. The organ from the donator of the same race matches the receiver better.CA few weeks ago, I called an Uber to take me to the Boston airport for a flight home for the holidays. As I slid into the back seat of the car, the warm intonations(语调) of the driver’s accent washed over me in a familiar way.I learned that he was a recent West African immigrant with a few young children, working hard to provide for his family. I could relate: I am the daughter of two Ethiopian immigrants who made their share of sacrifices to ensure my success. I told him I was on a college break and headed home to visit my p arents. That’s how he found out I go to Harvard. An approving eye glinted at me in the rearview window, and quickly, we crossed the boundaries of rider and driver. I became his daughter, all grown up — the product of his sacrifice.And then came the fatefu l question: “What do you study?” I answered “history and literature” and the pride in his voice faded, as I knew it might. I didn’t even get to add “and African-American studies” before he cut in, his voice thick with disappointment, “All that work to get into Harvard, and you study history?”Here I was, his daughter, squandering the biggest opportunity of her life. He went on to deliver the age-old lecture that all immigrant kids know. We are to become doctors (or lawyers, if our parents are being generous) —to make money and send money back home. The unspoken demand, made across generations, which my Uber driver laid out plainly, is simple: Fulfill your role in the narrative(故事) of upward mobility so your children can do the same.I used to feel anxious a nd backed into a corner by the questioning, but now as a junior in college, I’m grateful for their support more than anything. This holiday season, I’ve promised myself I won’t huff and get annoyed at their inquiries. I won’t defensively respond with “but I plan to go to law school!” when I get unrequested advice. I’ll just smile and nod, and enjoy the warmth of the occasion.28.What disappointed the driver?A. The author’s attitude towards him.B. The school that the author is attending.C. The author’s major s in history and literature.D. The author’s interests in African American studies.29. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “squandering” in Paragraph 4?A. wastingB. creatingC. valuingD. seizing30. Why are immigrant kids expected to be doctors or lawyers?A. Their parents want them to move upward in society.B. Their parents are high achieving as well.C. They have more opportunities.D. They are very smart in general.31. How did the author react to the driver’s questioning?A. Getting upset.B. Feeling satisfied.C. Defending herself.D. Appreciating his concern.DWhat’s small, buzzes here and there and visits flowers? If you said bees or hummingbirds, you got it. You wouldn’t be the first if you mixed the two up. Now a group of researchers even say we should embrace our history of considering the two together in the same group. The way scientists study bees could help them study hummingbird behavior, too.Scientists first compared the two back in the 1970s when studying how animals search for food. The idea is that animals use a kind of math to make choices in order to minimize the work it takes to earn maximum rewards. Researchers at the time focused on movement rules, like the order in which they visited flowers, and where flowers were located relative to others. It was “almost like an algorithm(算法)” for efficient searching, said David Pritchard, a biologist at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. Hummingbirds and bees had similar solutions.As the field of animal cognition(认知) appeared, hummingbird and bee research parted. Neuroscientists and behavioral ecologists developed ways to study bee behavior in naturalistic settings. Hummingbird researchers compared hummingbirds to other birds and borrowed methods from psychology to study their ability to learn in the lab. To be fair, hummingbirds and bees differ. For example, hummingbirds have more advanced eyes and brains than bees. Honeybees and bumblebees are social; hummingbirds typically aren’t.But however they perceive(感知) or process information, they both experience similar information, Dr. Pritchard said. In day-to-day searching for food, for example, hummingbirds may rely on more of a bee’s-eye view than abird’s-eye view. Like other birds, they rely on landmarks, distances and directions to make maps when travelling long distances, but they don’t use these cues to find flowers. Move a flower just an inch or so away from where a hummingbird thought it was and it will hover over the flower’s original location. Dr. Pri tchard is investigating if, like bees, hummingbirds engage in view matching — hovering, scanning snapshots of a place to its memory and using those as references later.32.What is the center of research on hummingbirds and bees in the 1970s?A. Memory.B. Movement rules.C. Reward calculating.D. Information processing.33.Which subject’s research methods were adopted to study the learning ability of Hummingbirds?A. Math.B. Biology.C. Ecology.D. Psychology.34.How do researchers find out that hummingbirds are not like birds?A. By setting them free.B. By moving flowers.C. By matching view.D. By making maps.35.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Hummingbirds and BeesB. Hummingbirds in the LabC. New Trends in Studying BeesD. Thinking of Hummingbirds as Bees第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
