In the last decade tuition costs have skyrocketed(猛涨 )At the same time there has been a cutback in federal aid to

25、 students. College loans are now much【 C11】 _(hard)to obtain. Consequently, most students must work at least part time. A final cause of student shock is the large selection of majors available. Because of the magnitude(重要性 )and difficulty of choosing a【 C12】 _, colleges can prove a time of great in

26、decision(犹豫不决 )Many students switch majors. As a result, it is becoming common place to take five or six years to get a degree.

29、 learn a foreign language as a part of a broad education. There is usually, however, no immediate and specific requirement for such children to make use of the language in any communicative situation. The purpose of learning the language is essentially, a “deferred“(延缓的 )purpose, deferred till the t

30、ertiary level of education, normally at university, where, it is agreed, a knowledge of English would be helpful in their academic studies. Immediate aims of learning English are defined by the requirements of examinations. Inevitably what is taught to primary and secondary level children is not a c

31、ommunicative knowledge of English language use, but a knowledge of how the rules of English language use, but a knowledge of how the rules of English operate. The language system is taught by means of systematic audio-lingual drill and exercise techniques based on habit formation theory of learning

32、and a structural description of English. This may be an effective manner of teaching English usage, but it is less certain that an understanding of how these rules are related to language in use for communicative purpose is an automatic result of this instruction. What the thousands of children succ

33、eed in learning in this way is what is necessary in order to pass examinations. Whether such examinations accurately reflect the uses to which English will be put at the tertiary level is another matter altogether. Adults, on the other hand, unless they are learning a foreign language for “pleasure

34、at evening institutes, as a “cultural“ and social experience, are generally highly conscious of the use to which they intend to put it. That use is frequently associated with an academic or professional requirement; without knowledge of the foreign language, their development in their chosen sphere

35、of work could be restricted or at least adversely affected. Directions: Decide whether the following statements are True or False. 61 The main topic of this passage is English learning as a part of a general education. （ A） TURE （ B） FALSE 62 According to the author, present examinations do enable s

36、tudents to use English for communication. （ A） TURE （ B） FALSE 63 The author believes that English teaching should help students with their future academic requirements. （ A） TURE （ B） FALSE 64 Audio-lingual techniques are the best way to teach English for communication. （ A） TURE （ B） FALSE 65 Adul

37、ts usually know why they learn foreign languages. （ A） TURE （ B） FALSE Section B 65 Aficionados of Hollywood Westerns know all about the legal code that says “shoot first, ask questions later“. But now, Republican legislators in Texas spiritual home of the six-shooter and a John Wayne-style frontier

38、 spirit want to enshrine the principle into law. Sponsors of a new bill in the state legislature call it the Castle Doctrine-the idea that anyone invading your home or threatening your safety deserves everything they have coming to them. Critics are already calling it the “shoot the neighbour“ law a

39、nd questioning whether Texas, of all places, really needs to give its citizens further encouragement to take matters of crime and punishment into their own hands. “I believe Texans who are attacked in their homes, their businesses, their vehicles or anywhere else have a right to defend themselves fr

40、om attack without fear of being prosecuted and face possible civil suits alleging wrongful injury or death,“ Texas Senator Jeff Wentworth of San Antonio home to The Alamo said recently in support of the bill. In theory, Texas law obliges citizens under attack to consider a retreat before opening fir

41、e. In practice, prosecutors and legal experts find it hard to recall a case where a citizen shooting in self-defence got into trouble for doing so. “Ive lived in Texas 30-plus years and Id be astounded to hear of a Texas jury that convicted someone who blasted a guy who was in his house,“ said Profe

42、ssor Jerry Dowling of Sam Houston State University. This is a state where businesses and home owners have signs that read “We dont call 911“ next to a large picture of a rifle. A few years ago, when ranch owners along the Rio Grande became upset at the number of Mexican immigrants on their land, the

43、y started shooting at them, and won the overwhelming support of their neighbours, even as they created a major international incident. Still, the bill shows every sign of being passed into law. In the State Senate, 27 of the 31 members have signed on as co-sponsors. In the House, two-thirds of the 1

44、50 members have indicated their support for it. The inspiration for the legislation comes less from fears for public safety than it does from pressure from the National Rifle Association, the powerful US gun lobby. Over the past two years, the NRA has inspired similar shoot first laws in 15 other st

45、ates, including Florida where legislators are now having serious second thoughts after the killing of a nine-year-old girl who was an innocent bystander caught in a shoot-out in a gang-ridden neighbourhood of Miami. The Florida law theoretically offers immunity to both sides in the shoot-out on the

46、grounds that they were firing in self-defence. Texas liberals a small but noisy breed have wasted no time making merciless fun of their state representatives, not least because one of the buildings where the Castle Doctrine would apply is the state Capitol. That, wrote an alternative publication in

47、Austin called In The Pink, “could prove challenging for lobbyists“. Advocates of gun-control, meanwhile, are worried the new law will do nothing to protect genuine victims of crime. “The current laws wont throw someone into jail for legitimate self-defence,“ said Zach Ragbourn, chair of the Brady Ca

48、mpaign to Prevent Gun Violence. “It could lead to gun fights and the death of innocent people“. Directions: Answer the following questions with the information given in the passage in a maximum of 10 words for each question. 66 What is meant by the Castle Doctrine? 67 What does Texas law currently r

49、equire people to do when someone breaks into their house? 68 What warning signs do some people put up outside houses/businesses? 69 Why Florida has second thoughts? 70 What do liberals in Texas feel about this law? Section C 70 Many people, particularly recent college graduates, dream of owning their own businesses. Although such ventures ar
