16、on. Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.37 Some US colleges adopt a different approach. “We would all like to say we do not care how much parents give, in the form of donations or tuition, but we do because we care about what is good for the institution,

17、“ says Richard Fuller, head of admissions at Hamilton College in New York State. This is a break from the post-war tradition of trying to ignore money. Admissions to US universities were democratized by the growth of scholarships and loans to cover the roughly 35 000 needed to attend an elite univer

18、sity such as Harvard or the Ivy league of east coast colleges. This led to so-called “need-blind“ policies.But as the cost of attracting faculty and building facilities has risen, colleges including Hamilton, Johns Hopkins, Smith and Oberlin have changed tack. They have started to state openly that

19、parents ability to pay is a factor in admissions policy, particularly for marginal candidates.The retreat of need-blind policies caused an uproar and Brown University, Rhode Island, reinstated the approach. Ruch Simmons, the universitys new president, received a full scholarship when she attended Di

20、llard University in New Orleans. She regards a need-blind admissions policy as a “moral imperative“.But even at need-blind colleges, wealth can help. “You would probably have to get (admissions officers) dead drunk before they would admit it-but of course if Jack Welchs or Bill Gates kids show up, t

21、hey are going to get different treatment,“ says Tom Mortenson, editor of Postsecondary Education Opportunity newsletter.37 Before this passage, the author talked about the practice of the Oxford university, then what is the attitude held by Oxford university about offering admission opportunity for

25、ny people think a telephone is essential. But I think it is a pest and a time waster. Very often you find it impossible to escape from some idle chatter-box (唠叨的人), or from some- body who wants something for nothing. If you have a telephone in your own house, you will admit that it tends to ring whe

26、n you least want it to ring; when you are asleep, or in the middle of a meal or a conversation, or when you are just going out, or when you are in your bath. Are you strong-minded enough to ignore it, to say to yourself, “Ah, well, it will all be the same in a hundred years time?“ You are nor. You t

27、hink there may be some important news or message for you. I can assure you that if a message is really important it will reach you sooner or later. Have you ever rushed dripping from the bath, or chewing from the table, or pushed from the bed, only to be told that you are a wrong number?But you will

28、 say, you need not have your name printed in the telephone book, and you eau have a telephone which is only usable for outgoing calls. Besides, you will say, isnt it important to have a telephone in case of sudden emergencyillness, accident, or fire? Of course, you are right, but here in a thickly p

29、opulated country like England one is seldom far from a telephone in case of dreadful necessity.I think perhaps I had better try to justify myself by trying to prove that what I like is good. I admit that in different circumstancesIf I were a tycoon (实业界巨头), for instance, or bedridden (病卧在床 ) I might

30、 find a telephone essential. But then if I were a taxi-driver I should find a car essential. Let me put it another way: there are two things for which the English seem to show particular interest: one is mechanical invention, the other is literature. My own business happens to be with the use of wor

31、ds but I see I must now stop using them. For I have just been handed a slip of paper to say that somebody is waiting to speak to me on the telephone. I think I had better answer it. After all, one never knows, it may be something important.42 What does the word “pest“ in the second sentence of Para.

32、1 mean?（A）destructive animal.（B） troublesome thing.（C） favorite hobby.（D）attractive device.43 What is the main idea of the passage?（A）One should be strong-minded enough to ignore a phone call.（B） A telephone is a necessity or a nuisance.（C） Important message will reach you sooner or later.（D）One had

35、ar is essential for a taxi-driver.47 The United States became a rich industrial nation toward the end of the 1800s. There were more goods, more services, more jobs, and a higher standard of living. There was more of everything, including problems. One problem was the monopoly of a certain line of pr

36、oducts or service. In some other cases, several companies that manufactured the same product would agree not to compete with one another. They would all agree to charge the same price. These arrangements made it impossible for customers to shop around for lower prices for certain products.Some peopl

37、e decided that huge corporations had too much power and controlled too many markets. Because of their wealth and power, they could see to it that governments passed laws favorable to them. Many people believed that monopoly and price fixing were bad for customers and bad for the country so that they

38、 should be broken up.Finally, the national government and some states passed laws that placed limits on corporations and big companies. These laws made it illegal for companies to make agreements to charge only a certain price. Later on the national government forced monopoly to be broken up.Such la

39、ws and government action didnt entirely do away with monopolies. Nor did they stop the growth of huge corporations. But they did show that American people had decided that some of the changes that had occurred were harmful.47 The word “monopoly“ (Line 3, Para.1) most probably means _.（A）the producti

40、on of certain kinds of goods（B） complete control and possession of a trade（C） a big corporation or company（D）an agreement on fixed prices48 From the passage it can be seen that _.（A）people had to buy things at certain shops before（B） the prices of big companies goods are much lower（C） fixed prices a

41、re not welcome by customers（D）there are fewer markets in some states than in others49 According to the laws, companies _.（A）were not allowed to control the markets（B） could not force the customers to buy their products（C） should have fixed prices for their products（D）must produce the same kind of go

42、ods for the same markets50 Some American people thought that _.（A）the government sometimes did things in favor of big corporations（B） the countrys industry was growing too rapidly（C） shops should have the same price for the same kind of goods（D）their countrys wealth was both good and bad to the peop

43、le51 We can conclude from the passage that _.（A）the markets in the U.S. are still influenced by the big corporations（B） the U.S. government has made great efforts to control the markets（C） customers in the U.S. are satisfied with the attitude of the government towards big corporations（D）it has been

44、easier for the markets in the U.S. to develop52 A friend of mine, in response to a conversation we were having about the injustices of life, asked me the question, “Who said life was going to be fair, or that it was even meant to be fair?“ Her question was a good one. It reminded me of something I w

45、as taught as a youngster: life isnt fair. Its a disappointment, but its absolutely true. One of the mistakes many of us make is that we feel sorry for ourselves, or for others, thinking that life should be fair, or that someday it will be. Its not and it wont.One of the nice things about surrenderin

46、g to the fact that life isnt fair is that it keeps us from feeling sorry for ourselves by encouraging us to do the very best we can with what we have. We know its not “lifes job“ to make everything perfect, its our own challenge. Surrendering to this fact also keeps us from feeling sorry for others

47、because we are reminded that everyone is dealt a different hand (分到不同的牌 ); everyone has unique strengths and problems in the process of growing up, facing the reality arid making decisions; and everyone has those times that they feel victimized or unfairly treated.The fact that life isnt fair doesnt

48、 mean we shouldnt do everything in our power to improve our own lives or the world as a whole. To the contrary, it suggests that life isnt fair, we tend to feel pity for others and for ourselves. Pity, of course, is a self-defeating emotion that does nothing for anyone, except to make everyone feel

49、worse than they already do. When we do recognize that life isnt fair, however, we feel compassion for others and for ourselves. And compassion is a heartfelt emotion that delivers loving-kindness to everyone it touches. The next time you find yourself thinking about the injustices of the world, try reminding yourself of this very ba
