单选题Normally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course that he attends gives him a credit, which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a university student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is possible for a student to move between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice. For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for participation in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. Students who advise the academic authorities usually perform the effective work of maintaining discipline. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in this career.

followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summary below
by choosing no more than three words from the passage. Remember to write the
answers on the answer sheet.
The Totara Language Institute is part of the University of
Waikato in the city of Hamilton, in New Zealand' s North Island. Intensive
English classes are taught in blocks of four weeks throughout the year and
students may enrol for as many blocks as they wish. Classes are for 5 hours each
day, Monday to Friday, and include preparation for several international English
language examinations. All the courses are taught by highly qualified teachers,
many of whom also teach on Language Institute graduate programmes in second
language teaching and applied linguistics. Classes are small, usually from
10-12 students with a maximum number of 15, and normally contain a mix of
students from a wide range of countries. Students who study English at the
Language Institute become international members of the Waikato Students' Union.
The option is available to move on to university study if students meet the
English language and academic entry levels for their choice of programme. The
Language Institute provides student support, welfare and activities services.
Students are met at Auckland airport on arrival and accommodation is provided
with local families or in University Halls of Residence with New Zealand
students. Hamilton, one of New Zealand's fastest growing
cities, is ideally located for a wide range of leisure and cultural activities.
The Waikato River, the longest river in New Zealand, flows through the centre of
the city, providing a picturesque and park-like setting of riverside walks and
gardens. The Waikato region is a diverse agricultural area, rich in historic
sites, arts and crafts, hot springs, native forests, mountains and rivers.
Within easy reach is an unspoilt coastline; the wild and rugged west coast
beaches famous for surfing, and the more peaceful east coast resorts are only a
short drive from Hamilton. Further afield the mountains of the central North
Island, 3 hours' drive away, provide superb ski facilities in winter, and hiking
country in summer. The Language Institute activities
co-ordinator can assist students to arrange any sport and leisure
activities. Assistance is also available for ongoing travel arrangements for
students. Students on a visitor visa or work permit may study for a maximum of 3
months. Courses of longer duration require a student permit which is issued for
the length of study only. SUMMARY:

单选题{{B}}Section B{{/B}} Directions: In this
section, there is one passage followed by 5 questions. Read the passage
carefully, then answer the questions in a maximum of 10 words.
Questions 61-65 are based on the following
passage. One hundred and thirteen million Americans
have at least one bank-issued credit card. Credit cards give their owners
automatic credit in stores, restaurants, and hotels, at home, across the
country, and even abroad, and they make many baking services available as well.
More and more of these credit cards can be read automatically, making it
possible to withdraw or deposit money in scattered locations, whether or not the
local branch bank is open. For many of us the "cashless society" is not on the
horizon--it's already here. While computers offer these
conveniences to consumers, they have many advantages for sellers too. Electronic
cash registers can do much more than simply ring up sales. They can keep a wide
range of records, including who sold what, when, and to whom. The information
allows businessmen to keep track of their list of goods by showing which items
are being sold and how fast they are moving. Decisions to recorder or return
which employees are the most efficient, allowing personnel and staffing
assignments to be made accordingly. And they also identify preferred customers
for promotional campaigns. Computers are relied on by manufactures for similar
reasons. Computer-analyzed marking reports can help decide which products to
emphasize now, which to develop for the future, and which to drop. Computers
keep track of goods in stock, of raw materials on hand, and even of the
production process itself. Numerous other commercial
enterprises, from theatres to magazine publishers, from gas and electric
utilities to milk processors, bring better and more efficient services to
consumers through the use of computers.

单选题
Questions 56-60 are based on the following
passage. It is generally accepted that every experience
teaches the child something and the effects are cumulative. "upbrigning" is
normally used to refer to the treatment and training of the child within the
home. This is closely related to the treatment and training of the child in
school, which is usually distinguished by the term "education". In a society
such as ours, both parents and teachers are responsible for the opportunities
provided for the development of the child, so that upbringing and education are
interdependent. The ideals and practices of child rearing vary
from culture to culture. In general, the more rural the community, the more
uniform are the customs of child Upbringing. In more technologically developed
societies, the period of childhood and adolescence tends to be extended over a
long time, resulting in more opportunity for education and greater variety in
character development. Early upbringing in the home is naturally
affected both by the cultural pattern of the community and by the parents'
capabilities and their aims and depends not only on upbringing and education but
also on the innate abilities of the child. Intelligent parents,
however, realize that the particular setting of each family is unique, and there
can be no rigid general rules. All parents have to solve the
problems of freedom and discipline. The younger the child, the more readily the
mother gives is to his demands to avoid disappointing him. She knows that if his
energies are not given an outlet, her child's continuing development may be
warped. A child must be allowed to enjoy this "messy" but
tactile stage of discovery before he is ready to go on to the less physical
pleasures of toys and books. Similarly, throughout life, each stage depends on
the satisfactory completion of the one before.
