And you must not let anything prevent you from taking those first steps. . You must also commit to the adventure. Just have faith in the skills and the knowledge you've been blessed with and go.J.J. K.K. Rowling,Rowling, HarvardHarvard UniversityUniversityHalf my lifetime ago, I was striking an uneasy balance between my ambition and the expectation from my parents who were not rich.But what I feared most for myself at your age was not poverty, but failure. SteveSteve Jobs,Jobs, StanfordStanford UniversityUniversitySometimes life's going to hit you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith.Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work, and the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking, and don't settle.BillBill Gates,Gates, HarvardHarvard UniversityUniversityWe need as many people as possible to have access to the advanced technology to lead to a revolution in what human beings can do for one another. They are making it possible not just for national governments, but for universities, smaller organizations, and even individuals to see problems, see approaches and - 5 -deal with the world's inequities（不公平）like hunger, poverty, and so on.21.What Michael Dell said is to urge us to .A. listen to our heart B. pursue our dreamsC. follow others' example D. learn from our mistakes22.Who wants to express “Keep looking for what you believe in“?A.

Questions arise, though, when it comes to all of the decisions involved in choosing a college.One of the first considerations may be financial. State and public colleges are often the least expensive. Often, though, the better colleges are private and more expensive. It is sad when gifted students cannot attend a college of their choice just for financial reasons.Another major factor is location. Whether the college is in a small town or large city can have a major impact on its activities. Those who cannot tolerate heat will probably be more comfortable at a northern college.School size also plays a major role in the decision process. If you want to get to know your teachers and avoid feeling like just a number, a small college is suitable. For those of you who consider yourself a “people person“ and want a wide range of activities, a large college is more fitting.Your area of interest is another factor to consider in the decision-making process if you want to get the most from your education. - 6 -Finally, one must take into consideration the colleges to which you can realistically be accepted. An Ivy League school for an average student would probably not be a good match. Similarly, an average school for an above-average student would not work well. The college should provide enough of a challenge for the student to work hard. Although there may not be the perfect college out there, there probably will be one that is close. Those who cannot find a suitable college are probably not looking hard enough.24.What's the main idea of the text?A. Procedures of choosing a college.B. Difficulties in attending a school.C. Pros and cons of going to college.D. Considerations in choosing a college.25.We can infer from the passage that .A. an Ivy League school is probably a state collegeB. a small college may bring you a sense of emptinessC. gifted students with financial aid are likely to choose private collegesD. an average school isn't suitable for an average student26.A “people person“ in Paragraph 4 probably refers to .A. a person who tends to be aloneB. a person who is good at socialityC. a person who is afraid of teachersD. a person who is accustomed to a noisy atmosphere27.What does the author think of choosing a college?A. A small college is a better choice for shy students.B. A northern college has a more comfortable climate.C. The location of a college is more important than the size of it.D. You will always find a suitable college if you look hard enough.C C- 7 -Every year billions of pounds are spent on hair loss treatment. If we succeed in curing hair loss with 3D printed hair follicles(毛囊), it will be a huge revolution. LOreal, the cosmetics firm is partnering with a French bio-printing company called Poietis, which has developed a form of laser(激光) printing for cell-based objects. Poietis technique begins with the creation of a digital map that determines where living cells and other tissue components should be placed to create the desired biological structure. This involves how the cells are expected to grow over time. About 10,000 of these micro-droplets are created every second.Poietis is not the only company working on bio-printing, but most others use another way, which involves pushing a bio-ink through a nozzle(喷嘴), rather than lasers to build their tissue. Poietis suggests its technique puts less stress on the biological matter, meaning there is less risk of causing itit damage. Alopecia UKa charity that provides support and advice about hair losshas mixed feelings about the development. “It is encouraging to know that companies such as LOreal are investing in technology that may help those with hair loss in the future,” said spokeswoman Amy Johnson.“However, we would suggest its still very early to be getting excited about what this potentially could mean for those with medical hair loss. At this point it is unclear as to whether this technology could benefit those with all types of hair loss.”“Also, if this new technology does lead to a treatment option, given the high costs of existing hair transplant procedures, how many people will be able to realistically afford any new technological advances that may become available? As with any other research and development into processes that may be able to help those with hair loss, we watch with great interest.” 28. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?A. How the printing process is carried out.- 8 -B. Where the living cells should be placed.C. How long the cells are expected to grow.D. What the printing equipment is made up of.29. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. hair follicle B. biological matter C. nozzle D. bio-ink 30. The passage implies that the new technology may _.A. meet some practical challengesB. help people with hair loss at presentC. offer solutions to all problems of hair lossD. cost a large sum of money to transplant hair31. What is Amy Johnsons attitude towards the new technology?A. Disapproving. B. Optimistic. C. Cautious. D. Negative.D DIt's the holiday season, the time when we connect with family and friends. Social media sites like Twitter and Facebook are full of festive pictures, featuring parents' catching and sharing those special family moments, their child's wish list, and maybe even a cute video of their child dancing to “Jingle Bell:Rock“ while wearing a diaper(尿片) and Santa hat. Swelling with pride, parents can't wait to get approval with a “thumbs up“ or better yet a personalized message on their treasured post.Adults should be able to post what they want online. However, when exposing family moments online, are they sharing too much information? Do parents have the right to share those cute now, but embarrassing later moments about kids? Have children willingly given their agreement to sharing their cute but funny video online?A recent study found that 75% of parents turn to social media for parenting-related information and social support. There is even a term: used to describe - 9 -the overuse of sharing too much information about kids on social media: “sharenting“. While there's no reliable information on how young children feel about things posted online, we do have information about how teens feel. According to a report by the Family Online Safety Institute, 76% of teens are concerned about their privacy. Many teens constantly search for new apps that allow anonymityanonymity. When names are required, they use screen names that don't reveal real information. If our teens are doing a better job of protecting themselves online, shouldn't parents take the lead and do the same? Plus, with more and more college admission representatives and potential employers surfing the internet for potential candidates, we'd hate for one of our posts to change an important decision. Think about it. online reputations are now becoming inseparable with real life ones. Of course, we can secure our privacy settings, only allowing our friends to view pictures, posts and videos, but that doesn't stop others from uploading our pictures, Adults need to be cautious of sharing information online, especially information about children.So. this holiday season, enjoy family time and share those special memories with family and friends. Before clicking the app to upload photos or videos, stop and think twice.32. Which of the following behaviors is “sharenting“?A. A girl attends a live performance online.B.

What does the underlined word “anonymity“ in Paragraph 4 mean?A. One's real name.B. Using strange names.C. Unchangeable names.D. Being unknown by name.34. What's the author's attitude toward “sharenting“?A. Sympathetic. B. Negative. C. Neutral. D. Unconcerned.- 10 -35. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To state an argument. B. To support an opinion.C. To compare different ideas.D.
