Planning is the key. At least three weeks in advance think about what you will need to assemble (收集). That way, you will not be doing things at the last minute. Make several copies of all of your important documents. Those include all things youve been issued and the first two pages in your passport showing your picture, birth date, passport number. Keep one set of copies in your carry-on luggage, one in your checked baggage and leave a set at home preferably with someone who can send them to you if needed. Visit the Office of the International students in the Intercultural Center to have your student card signed and to request a “enrollment verification letter (入学签到书) and a copy of your financial statement. Do this at least one week before you travel. Do not wait until the last minute. Be sure your visa is up to date and that it will not expire (过期) within the next six months. If you are traveling outside of the United States to a country other than your home country, you are urged to contact the embassy of that country to learn if you need a visa to enter that country. If so, ask what the requirements, cost and timeframe are to apply for a visa before you go to the bank. Keep in mind that it often takes 23 weeks to process a visa application, so you should leave enough time for it If you are traveling in the United States, it is always a good idea to carry your original passport and ID card with you at all times. If you are stopped by any government official (police, border patrols, immigration officers, etc.), you will be required to show them your original documents. 46. What does the writer think is most important while preparing for traveling?A. Time B. Suggestions C. Money D. Documents47. Where could the traveler apply for a visa to enter a foreign country? A.

In the New York Knicks 92-85 win over the Los Angles Lakers last Saturday, Lin had a career-high 38 points. And a day later, he led the Knicks to their fifth straight victory, 100-98, to Minnesota Timberwolves. In his previous games, Lin, 23, had 23 points against the Washington, 25 points against New Jersey and 28 more against Utah in his first start. No doubt, Lin fever is starting to spread. If you havent already caught “Linsanity (林疯狂), get ready because its coming, as the Knicks pin their championship hopes on the rising star. If you want to know more about Lin, here are five facts about him from the Associated Press (AP): 1. He is smart. Before graduating from high school in Palo Alto, California, Lin sent his resume to all the Ivy League schools. He only got into Harvard and Brown, and he chose Harvard. In , Lin graduated with a degree in economics. 2. He is the first American player in the NBA of Chinese descent (血统). Lin was born in the US and his family is Asian. Despite not being born in China, Lin has co-opted Yao Mings old fan base of Asian-Americans who see him as a powerful role model. 3. He wasnt drafted (选拔). After graduating from Harvard, Lin wasnt drafted by any NBA team, which would have made him the first Ivy League alumni(校友) to be drafted since 1955.4. He started off on the Golden State Warriors. Lin first signed with the Warriors in July, , but rarely played in games before the start of the fourth quarter. His first time on the court for the Worriers earned him seven points, three rebounds(篮板) and two assists (助攻)in just 11 minutes. 5. He is a perfect fit for the Knicks. New York Knicks has been in need of a reliable point guard and to Mike DAntoni, the Knicks coach who is going through a tough season, Lin is a most unexpected asset (有价值的人). “Lin just does everything easy and the rest of the guys around him are playing the way we want to play, DAntoni said. “I think its for real, and it can only get better.49.

We all want happy relationships but if we do not keep that relationship alive, it can also be one of the most distraught things in life. There may be no hard and fast rules in making good relationships, as each of us has different preferences and points of view as to what is a great relationship. The following are some major key points in making relationships work.It is often said that building good relationships is all about communication. Good communication indeed governs a good relationship knowing the right thing to say, when to say it, how to say it, and accepting that some things are better left unsaid. I personally think communication must be broadened because relationships involve more decisions to make. From study to work, from money to entertainment and even in things about yourself or about your friend that you do not know, communication is essential in these aspects of the relationships.Of course, being with someone is not saying that you totally agree with him all the time. You and your friend come from different family backgrounds, raised in different environments so there may be disagreements here and there. However, it is important in making relationships work to express disagreements without pushing the relationship to end. Again, good communication and learning to compromise (妥协) at times are necessary.As the relationship lasts longer, you may also discover things about you and your friend that you may not have known before. Therefore, supporting each other on both your “hidden selves can also make a good relationship.Love is an important aspect of building relationships and for me, I always believe that love needs open communication, respect, support and understanding each other in making relationships work.52. The underlined word “distraught in Paragraph 1 probably means_. A. helpless B. surprising C. funny D. upsetting53. To communicate well with people, you should know that_. A. supporting each other in anything helps build a good relationshipB. a white lie is necessary sometimesC. compromises are essential at any timeD. your friends need to have the same backgrounds with you54. According to the text, which of the following are important for a good relationship?a. communication b. support c. love d. hidden selvesA. a, b, d B. a, c, d C. b, c, d D. a,b, c55. What would be the best title for the text?A. The Importance to Express Disagreements B. Keys to Making Relationships WorkC. Different Opinions on Good RelationshipsD. Forbidden Rules in Building Good Relationships第二节(共5小题;每题2分,总分值l0分)根据短文内容,从下框的AF选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最正确选项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余项。A. Help your children get organizedB. Help your children set a scheduleC.
