These appear in consumer magazines and in magazines for automobile enthusiasts, and both types are usually available in your lib
14、rary if youre not a subscriber. The consumer magazines generally pay more attention to practical things like roominess, gas mileage, and repair records; the enthusiasts magazines pay more attention to things like performance and style. You should remember that the enthusiasts magazines depend on the
15、 auto industry for the advertising that keeps them in business and some (not all) will manage to find something nice to say about all cars. So read about several road tests of the car you are thinking of getting. You may want to skip this step because your mind is already made up-maybe you always bu
16、y a certain make of car or you like one that a friend has. But check the magazines road tests anyway; they may change your mind. Note too that Federal law requires manufacturers to make available to prospective purchasers certain items of information regarding tires, braking, and passing and acceler
17、ation ability. This information must be available in the dealers showroom, and also normally found in the glove box of the vehicle, either in the owners manual or as a separate document.

We tend to assume that experts and religious leaders tell us “th
22、e truth“. We tend to believe that things advertised on television or in newspapers cant be bad for us. However, encouragement of critical thinking in students is one of the goals of most colleges and universities. Few professors require students to share the professors own beliefs. In general, profe
23、ssors are more concerned that students learn to question and critically examine the arguments of others, including some of their own beliefs or values. This does not mean that professors insist that you change your beliefs, either. It does mean, however, professors will usually ask you to support th
24、e views you express in class or in your writing. If your premises (前提) are shaky, or if your arguments are not logical, professors personally point out the false reasoning in your arguments. Most professors want you to learn to recognize the premises of your arguments, to examine whether you really
25、accept these premises, and to understand whether or not you draw logical conclusions. Put it this way: Professors dont tell you what to think; they try to teach you how to think. On the other hand, if you intend to disagree with your professors in class, you should be prepared to offer a strong argu
26、ment in support of your ideas. Arguing just for the sake of arguing usually does not promote a critical examination of ideas. Many professors interpret it as rudeness. （分数：17.50）(1).In the first paragraph, the writer tries to tell us that people_.（分数：3.50）A.easily accept certain things without a sec

39、nce at a lecture. It suddenly seems to you as if everybody knows everybody else; everybody is sure of himself; everybody, that is, except you.

40、neliness by joining a club or a society, by going out and meeting people. Does this really help? There are no easy solutions.

41、d knows what to do, but you are adrift and helpless. The fact of the matter is that, in order to survive, we all put on a show of self-confidence to hide our uncertainties and doubts.
