A
Remember back to when you were a young child. Can you recall who your heroes were? Were they people in your family? Were they from books, or TV, or movies?
During their teen years, young people search for two types of heroes. The first type of hero they look for is someone they can admire. Too often, however, they confuse superstars with heroes. Most TV or movie superstars aren’t really heroes---they’re celebrities(名流), products of the media. The danger comes when young people confuse the heroic with the famous. In fact, because they don’t have real heroes, people of all ages turn to fantasy(想象中的)heroes. And the media, in turn, fill this
need with Indiana Jones, Superman, Conan the Barbarian, James Bond, Luke Skywalker, and other fantasy figures.
The second type of hero young people sometimes choose stands for disobedience(叛逆) toward parents and rules. An example is Bluto Bluntarsky in the movie Animal House. Bluto is a terrible troublemaker. Of course, some teenagers may actually admire Bluto’s personal qualities.
Are these real heroes? Not really, because who they are and what they do are purely a dream. Real heroes are ones you love and want to keep as heroes forever. Celebrities are easy come, easy go.
But don’t count real heroes out yet. Even in an age when people say there are no heroes---only celebrities---there are countless heroes. There are many heroes who are not so well known. They have risked life, or anything valuable on a matter of principle.
Everyone needs heroes to admire. Whether they’re movie stars, relatives, nextdoor neighbors, or strangers we’ve read about, we need them. By what they do, heroes show us that we, too, can do something outstanding, even if we are only “ordinary” people.
56. What problem do young people often have about “heroes”?
A. They search for heroes in their dreams.
B. They never learn from heroes
C. They are uncertain about who to admire
D. They often love troublemakers
57. What is the author’s opinion about the topic?
A. There are very few real heroes.
B. Heroes can be famous people
C. Principles cause heroes’ death
D. All people can do some heroic deeds.
58. Young people need heroes mainly because they want to ______.
A. have role models
B. become superstars
C. admire celebrities
D. love fantasy figures
59. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Becoming Heroes
B. Everybody Needs Heroes
C. Celebrities or Heroes?
D. Why Heroes?
B
In well over half the languages of the world, it is possible to change the meaning of a word simply by changing the pitch(声高) level at which it is spoken. Languages that allow this are known as tone languages.
The number of tones(音调) in a language can be different. The simplest systems have only two tones, high vs low(eg. Zulu); Yoruba has three (high, mid, low); Lushai has four(extra-high, high, mid,low); Thai has five(low, mid, and high-falling, high-rising, low-falling-rising); Cantonese Chinese has six (mid-and low-level, high-and low-falling and high-and low-rising). Tonal differences may affect either the vocabulary or the grammar of a language. Probably the most widely known case is Mandarin Chinese, which has four tones.
Grammatical uses of tone are also common. In several languages of West Africa (e.g. Twi, Bini), a change of tone signals the difference between certain tense forms. In Bini, for instance, a low tone is used for present tense, and a high or high-low tone for past tense.
When a set of tones is produced, adjacent(邻近的)tones tend to influence each other. For example, a low tone that has a high tone in front of it will usually begin with a downward pitch movement. In particular, the information system of the language can cause changes in the pitch level of tones. In a sentence where there is a gradually falling intonation, the tones towards the beginning of the sentence will be spoken at a higher level than the tones towards the end. This
gradual lowering of tones is known as downdrift. It may even result in a high tone at the end of a sentence having the same pitch level as a low tone at the beginning!
60. What is the text mainly about?
A. Tone language
B. The number of tones
C. Grammar and tones
D. Changes in tones
61. Which of the following seems to have the largest number of tones?
A. Tai language
B. Mandarin Chinese
C. Lushai
D. Cantonese Chinese
62. What is special about some tone languages?
A. The same words may have different pitches.
B. The tones have little influence on meaning.
C. Higher pitches refer to things in the past.
D. Different tones are used for different tenses.
63. How would a high tone influence the low tones following it?
A. The low tones will begin with a lower pitch movement.
B. The low tones will start with a higher pitch production.
C. The low tones are spoken at a lower level.
D. The low tones end with a higher tone.

Higher Education IN THE United States
Higher education in the United States includes any program of study at two-year-colleges, four-year colleges and graduate schools. There are more than 4,100 community community colleges, colleges, and universities in the United States. Four-year colleges grant undergraduate bachelor’s degrees (B.A. or B.S.). Two-year colleges, often called community colleges, offer the Associate of Arts or the Associate of Science degrees (A.A. or A.S.) The words college and university are often the same, but it is generally understood that a university can offer graduate degrees as well. These degrees can be quite specialized, such as a Master of Arts in a particular subject or even doctorate degrees.
American colleges and universities may be public, private, or religious(宗教的). Public universities are owned by the states. Students pay tuition(学费)at public universities, but those who have lived in the state for a certain period of time do not pay as much as students from outside the state. The annual average cost of tuition, fees and room and board at universities was $36,564 in 2014. These costs, however, depend on the size, location, reputation(声誉), etc. of the university.
Private and religious institutions can be very expensive because they do not receive the same type of funding that public schools do, although they may get some money from the state for certain programs. Some American private universities are considered the best in the nation, if not in the world, but the costs of these schools are very high. It is usually not necessary to be a member of a particular region to attend the religious school.
Last, there are also some technical institutions that are privately owned, like business. These technical institutes offer two-year programs in such fields as automotive engineering, business, and electronics. The training is very specialized, and the goals of the students are specifically related to a particular occupation.
64. What degrees do the community colleges offer?
A. Bachelor’s degrees
B. Master’s degrees.
C. A.A. or A.S.
D. Doctorate degrees.
65. What’s the distinctive feature of public universities?
A. Room and board are free.
B. They are supported by the states.
C. The average cost is over $36,564 per year.
D. Students from different states pay the same tuition.
66. Why do some people choose to attend private universities?
A. They receive funding from the government.
B. They are located near where students live.
C. They are excellent in education.
D. They provide some financial help.
67. Where can we possibly find the text?
A. A fashion magazine
B. A storybook
C. A travel guide
D. A government website

James Murray was scholar who wrote articles about the history of languages, particularly English. In the mid-1870s he was earning his living teaching at Mill Hill School, a private school for boys, near London, English, where he lived with his wife, Ada, and their children, Murray was an active member of the Philological Society, and in the summer of 1876, a senior member, Frederick Furnivall, asked if he would become editor of a new dictionary.
Murray was aware that the Philological Society had been working on a new dictionary for twenty years and that Furnivall had become editor of the project in 1864. The society members wanted to publish a dictionary that would show how words came into being, giving quotations(摘录) from early and later works that would show how the meaning of each word had changed. Furnivall had sent old books to volunteer readers, asking them to find quotations that showed early usage of words. In the beginning, readers had been enthusiastic, but after ten years of sending in small pieces of paper, with no news of how the overall project was progressing, many readers had lost interest. Furnivall had become stuck with the huge amount of work and had never actually started compiling(编撰) the dictionary.
Murray agreed to take over Furnivall’s job as editor on condition that the society find a publisher. In the late spring of 1878, the directors of the Oxford University Press agreed to publish the dictionary. They offered to provide a salary and expenses for the editor, pay for the costs of printing, and find buyers who would buy each part as it was published over the ten years it was believed necessary to complete the project.
The society hoped the new dictionary would compete favorably with the 1864 edition of Webster’s An American Dictionary of the English Language,the best-selling dictionary on the market. The new dictionary would be seven thousand pages long---four times the size of Webster’s because it provided information about the history of words, whereas Webster’s dictionary just explained the meaning of words.
68. What did J. Murray do for a living before he was invited to edit a dictionary？
A. Writing
B. Managing the Philological Society
C. Teaching
D. Doing research
69. The project people gathered information about history of words from_____.
A. various books
B. actual language use
C. members of the society
D. famous quotations of the time
70. What can we infer about Murray’s life after he became the editor of the dictionary?
A. He remained an active member of the society.
B. He put all his attention on the work.
C. He received pay from the society.
D. He kept looking for buyers.
71. What is the biggest difference of Murray’s dictionary from others?
A. It focuses on where words came from.
B. It gives exact meaning about words.
C. It was written by thousands of people.
D. It took a very long time to complete.
