With today’s college application fees averaging around $ 80, you can expect to spend hundreds of dollars on college before you are even accepted into a school. One of the easiest ways to save money on college application fees before you begin applying is to narrow down your list of schools. To save money, try to limit the schools to which you apply to about 2-3 reach schools and 2-3 safety schools. At some schools, being a relative of a graduate can secure you a free application. If you are applying to a school where one of your parents or grandparents is a former graduate, check to see if you’ re qualified for it. Research the preferred method of applying for each school on your list. Some schools offer free online applications, yet charge a fee for paper submissions. This is because online applications save schools the cost of employing a staff member to physically enter the application information. Several states, such as Michigan and North Carolina, take part in College Application Week, where many schools in the participating states cancel their application fee for the week. Be sure to contact the schools to I j which you are applying to see if they participate in College Application Week and when the program takes place in that state. Apply for early admission. If you have already decided on which college is your top choice, consider applying under an Early Action or Early Decision admission program. If you are accepted, you won’t have to submit application fees to other schools. For more information regarding college applications and the fees associated with them, contact your high I school advisor or the admissions department at your school(s) of interest. 21. The passage is mainly written to______. A. introduce famous universities in the United Stales B. show some practical ways to apply an ideal college C. advertise for successful applications and advisors D. offer tips to save money on college application fees 22. What does the author advise to do in the second paragraph? A. Write down your favorite universities. B. Reduce the number of your university choices. C. Apply to two universities each time. D. Mind your safety when applying to college. 23. Some schools offer free online application to______, A. receive fees faster than before B. employ someone else to work C. cut down the cost of employment D. enter the application information 24. It can be known from the passage that______, A. application fee might be canceled conditionally B. many countries attend College Application Week C. applying for early admission is the best policy D. admission departments determine your future B Every year, some 6.9 million children under the age of five die from diseases like malaria, pneumonia and HIV. The untold story of child survival is that the global community now has the combined knowledge, technical know-how and affordable tools to end such child deaths. Evidence shows that it is possible to decrease under-five death rates in developing countries to levels approaching those in wealthier countries. That is why 4 years ago — June, 2012 — the US, Ethiopia and India joined the United Nations Children’s Fund (or UNICEF) to launch Child Survival Call to Action, a global effort to save children’s lives. The goal was to lower child death rates in the hardest-hit countries to 20 deaths per 1,000 live births by the year 2035. Zambia started a plan focused on nutrition and immunization (免疫) that will save more than 26,000 children each year. Congo is distributing pre-packaged supplies to prevent and treat the most common killers. They hope to save the lives of half a million children by 2017. Similar efforts are taking place in Ethiopia, Bangladesh, Yemen, and elsewhere. Child Survival partner companies are also developing life-saving vaccines (疫苗) and treatment for diarrhea. Private enterprisers and medical professionals are training and equipping health workers in 54 countries with life-saving tools. Still others are developing and delivering safe water treatment and storage products. “This high-level forum inspired a global movement — Committing to Child Survival: A Promise Renewed,” wrote UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake. “Four years passing, it continues to build and, today, 174 countries and over 400 civil society and faith-based organizations have taken up the charge in their own commitments. While we still have a long way to go, the first 4 years have seen impressive gains.” 25. The underlined word “those” in Paragraph 1 refers to______. A. 6. 9 million under-five children B. affordable tools to end child death C. deaths in the developing countries D. death rates of children under five 26. Child Survival Call To Action was founded to______. A. improve the living conditions for poor children B. decrease under-five death rates in some countries C. raise some money to save children’s lives D. save children in the poorest countries 27. What can be inferred from the passage? A. All diseases can be prevented or treated. B. Governments and partners joined the initial effort. C. Nutrition holds the key to lower the death rates. D. Only governments made their best to reduce the deaths. 28. How does Anthony Lake feel towards Child Survival Call to Action? A. Time-consuming. B. Wasteful. C. Positive. D. Cold. C How you feel and react to your environment on a day-to-day basis can be measured by your behavior, thoughts, and emotions. Your personality gives you away! There are four fundamental characteristics of personality. First, it is constant and people tend to behave in the same way when they meet similar situations. Second, personality not only influences actions, but it also actually causes people to behave in specific ways. Third, personality is influenced by both psychological and biological factors. Finally, personality is expressed not only in behaviors, but through emotions, thoughts, social behavior, and close relationships. How the world distinguishes you is a direct reflection of and reaction to how you present yourself to them. Race, age, and sex are qualities you have no control over, but certainly contribute to your personality because of how the world senses you based on them. A person who continuously experiences racial discrimination may guard himself against it by at first seeming cold and unfriendly. But once he opens up, you may discover someone completely different inside. Physical ones, which you develop over time, also contribute to your personality, and include walking pace, eye contact, and facial expressions. How you want the world to see you influences how you present yourself to others. Characteristics such as altitude, response and general mindset create the surface of your one-of-a-kind personality. If you’re like many people, the aspects of your personality you choose to show might depend on the people you meet. For instance, the personality you exhibit around your boss is probably a lot different from the personality you show to your closest friends. All of these elements make up the “you” that only you truly know. And only you can decide when to share these parts of your personality with other colleagues. 29. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. Some aspects of personality. B. Ways to develop personality. C. What contributes to personality. D. Why personality is important. 30. It can be known from Paragraph 2 that______. A. one’s personality is merely determined by birth B. personality consists of behavior, thoughts and relationships C. personality has nothing to do with one’s career life D. the environment and the situation influence one’s personality 31. The intended readers for the passage are probably______. A. receptionists B. students C. office clerks D. police officers D For many, Daylight Saving Time (DST: 夏令时) simply means remembering to change the clocks and twisting your sleep schedule. “Even though the time change is only an hour, it is something that causes much more destruction than people believe,” said Dr. John Sharp, a psychologist and psychiatrist at Beth-Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. “It’s not just an extra hour of sleep; it’s more of a fast-forward into winter.” With days getting darker earlier, Sharp suggests making a to-do list for activities after work ahead of time. “Any plans you have, say, going to the gym after work, require much more effort and determination. It’s much better to plan more carefully and not just rely on how you feel, especially when it is dark out,” he said. “Figure it out in advance and stick with the plan.” In addition. Sharp says in the weeks after Daylight Saving, some may feel like they have a bigger appetite. “Eating more during this time is not the answer. People need to stay on an eating schedule and keep up healthy habits. ” However, Sharp said there are ways to better acclimate yourself to the time change. If you are having trouble sleeping, he suggests taking some melatonin (退黑激素) in the evening. In contrast, if you find yourself feeling sleepy. Sharp said there is nothing wrong with adding an extra caffeinated drink during your day. A word to the wise? One sure way to better adjust to the time change is to start going to bed 15 minutes earlier starting four days before Daylight Saving, adding an additional 15 minutes each night. 32. Which is probably the best title for the passage? A. Are you prepared for DST? B. Why DST was introduced? C. What DST has brought to life? D. How DST has been popular? 33. What does John Sharp suggest in Paragraph 2? A. Getting up earlier than before. B. Sticking to the daily routine. C. Being aware of quality sleep. D. Getting well-prepared for DST. 34. The underlined word “acclimate” in Paragraph 4 can be replaced by______. A. adopt B. accelerate C. adapt D. acknowledge 35. The passage is probably taken from______. A. a scientific report B. an interview C. a speech D. a statement 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Some Ways to Avoid Getting Sick Nobody enjoys being sick but even the best of us can fall sick.
