单选题 If you've been on campus for very long, I'm certain that you've already heard about this course. You may know that last semester about fifty percent of the students enrolled in my course failed it. Let me explain how this came about before you jump to any conclusions. In the first place, since this is a composition class, I expect my students to follow certain rules of formality (格式). Unfortunately, many students today dislike having to follow rules of any kind, especially those which they may feel to be unnecessary. For example, I ask that each of your papers be typed. I count off points for various kinds of mistakes. A misspelled word will cost you 5 points. You've lost 25 points if you've misspelled five words. If you write an incomplete sentence, you've lost 10 points. If you give me two complete sentences as one without adequate punctuation (标点), you've lost 15 points. I do not accept late papers. You will receive a zero for any theme (作业) which you fail to submit on time. I expect you to read each assignment. To make certain that you have read the assignment, I will give you a short unannounced quiz from time to time. This class meets on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. You will have a total of six major tests throughout the semester. Your final grade will be based on an average of these major tests, the pop tests, and eight written themes. If you have any questions at any time, you can see me on Tuesdays. My office is on the second floor of this building. Your assignment, for Wednesday is to read Hemingway's short story on page 55. Friday will be the last class day of this week, so you can expect to write a short in-class theme for me then.

单选题Harvard University is the oldest institute of higher learning in the United States. Founded 16 years after the arrival of Pilgrims at Plymouth, the university has grown from 9 students with a single master to the present enrollment of more than 18 000 students, including undergraduates and students in 10 graduate and professional schools. Over 14 000 people work at Harvard, including more than 2 000 faculties. Harvard has produced six presidents of the United States and 34 Nobel winners. During its early years, Harvard offered a classic academic course based on the model of English universities, but consistent with the prevailing (流行的，盛行的；占优势的) Puritan philosophy. Although many of its early graduates became ministers in Puritan churches throughout New England, the university never formally belonged to a specific religious group. Under President Pusey, Harvard started what was then the largest fund-raising campaign in the history of American higher education. It was 82.5 million dollars program for the university. The program increased faculty salaries, broadened students aid. created new professorships, and expanded Harvard's physical facilities. Nell L. Rudenstine took office as Harvard's 26th president in 1991. As part of an overall effort to achieve greater coordination among the university's schools and faculties, Rudenstine encouraged academic planning and identified some of Harvard's main intellectual priorities. He also stressed the importance of the university's excellence in undergraduate education, the significance of keeping Harvard's door open to students from families of different economic backgrounds, the task of adapting the research university to an era of both rapid information growth and serious fund shortage.

单选题For each question or statement there are 4 choices markedA.,B.,C. andD.. You should make the correct choice and mark tire corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. In 1971 the Royal College of Physicians decided to take action oo the problem of smoking and health. They formed an organization called Action on Smoking and Health—ASH. Its aims are to make people aware of the dangers of smoking and to help those people who do smoke to give up. As part of its campaign to make people see how smoking damages us all, both as individuals and as members of society, ASH has gathered together some every convincing facts and figures. For instance, smoking is very harmful to industry. Nearly 50 million working days are lost in Britain every year due to smoking—at least four times the number of days lost in strikes. And the cost of treating people suffering from smoking related disease is around ￡ 100 million each year. But the human suffering which smoking causes is far more serious than the economic price which society has to pay. 95% of those who suffer from bronchitis are smokers. It has been estimated that 20% of all cigarette smokers become disabled by chronic bronchitis and may eventually die of the disease. Over 20,000 people die of bronchitis every year. Lung cancers kill more people than any other types of cancers; 90% of them are caused by smoking. With coronary heart disease the risk of death is 2 to 3 times as great in smokers as in non-smokers and this disease is now the major cause of death in Britain. Bronchitis, lung cancer anti coronary heart disease are the three most serious reasons for not smoking but. there are other reasons which are also important. The message from ASH is clear—if you do smoke you should give up now and if you don' t smoke then you should not start—ever.
