A
My mother, a nurse at Stony Brook University Hospital, worked at night
so that she could come home in time to send me to school. She’d sleep during
the day and be ready when we returned home before heading out again in the
evening. This went on for 23 years. She never complained(抱怨). No matter
how tired she was, she always had enough energy to be my mom
She often had to work on holidays, even on New Year’s Eve, which made
me unhappy. However, before holidays she always decorated the inside and
outside of our house. She ’ d also have cookies baked in the oven, a
holiday-themed movie in the VCR, and music playing throughout our house for
us. But when it was time to go to work, there was no room for debate. “Why
do you have to work on this day of all days?” I’d ask sadly. “They need
me, too, dear son.” She’d say.
For a long time I didn’t understand why she should care so much about
those sick strangers. Recently, as my grandmother became ill, I found myself
spending more time in the hospital. The scenes I saw in the hospital made
me see the different side of my mother. The nurses checked the heart, blood
and oxygen levels to make sure patients were comfortable. They lifted
patients in and out of bed and helped them to the bathroom. Beyond their
duties, the nurses showed consideration(体贴) for each patient.
What I saw helped me understand why my mother was devoted to her
occupation(职业). I was filled with more admiration for my mother.

23. What made the author really understand his mother’s work?
A. The things his mother did during holiday

Since his students began using Quizlet, the English teacher Tristan Thorne
has noticed an improvement in their ability to learn and use new words.
Quizlet is a learning app, a computer program you use on your mobile phone.
It can help users build and test their knowledge of English words. Quizlet
has words set for millions of subjects. And, it is quickly becoming a useful

Quizlet for others to use. He says some apps also make it easy for students
to know their language strengths and weaknesses.

much more active in whole-class or small-group discussions.” Apps let all
students take part in the activity, whether it’s a game, quiz or practice
activity, “ he says.
Many existing learning apps are designed for students of all ages and
levels. Some are designed for group activities. Some support independent
learning. Still some are good for homework. Thorne says he especially likes

I was quite angry with my professor last week when he gave us a task to
“tell someone we love them”. It has to be someone we have never said those
words to before or at least haven’t shared those words with for a long time.
But as I began driving home my conscience started talking to me. It was
telling me that I knew exactly who I needed to say I love you to. You see,
five years ago, my father and I had a disagreement and really never settled
it since that time. We avoided seeing each other unless we absolutely had
to at Christmas or other family gatherings.
So last Tuesday by the time I got home I had convinced myself I was going
to tell my father I loved him. The next morning I was up bright and early.
I could hardly sleep with excitement, nor did my wife.
At 9:00, I called my dad to see if I could come over after work. When he
answered the phone, I just said, “Dad, can I come over after work tonight?
I have something to tell you.” My dad responded with a grumpy face, “Now
what?” I promised it wouldn’t take long, so he finally agreed.
At 5:30, I was at my parents’ house ringing the doorbell, praying that
Dad would answer the door. Dad did answer the door. I didn’t waste any time
and took one step in the door and said, “Dad, I just came over to tell you
that I love you.” His face softened and he began to cry. He reached out
and hugged me and said, “I love you too, son.” Mom walked by with tears
in her eyes.
Two days after that visit, my dad became unconscious. I don’t know if
he’ll make it. What if I had waited to tell my dad? Maybe I will never get
the chance again!
28. What problem did the author decide to solve?
B.
A. His heavy office work load.
hardly-finished
His
assignment.
C. His disagreement with his father.
D. His unpleasant family
gatherings.
29. What does the underlined phrase “a grumpy face” in Paragraph 4 most
probably mean?
A. Great doubt.
D. Soft tone.
30. How did the father feel when the author said “I love you” to him?
D. Indifferent.
B. Bad temper.
C. Good mood.
A. Confused.
B. Moved.
C. Shocked.
31. Which sentence may be the best ending for the text?
A. So don’t believe there will be a problem without a solution.
B. So don’t complain when your teacher gives you assignments.
C. So don’t forget to visit your family even if you are very busy.
D. So don’t wait to do the things that you know ought to be done.
D
Are billionaires good with exams as well as their money? Or are they more
likely to have escaped school at the first opportunity and worked their way
up to make their fortunes?
A study of the educational background of some of the world’s wealthiest
people shows that they are much more likely to have gone to university, and
they are more likely to have a postgraduate degree(硕士或博士研究生学位)
than no degree at all.
It doesn’t give much support for the image of self-taught entrepreneurs
(企业家), who rely on their own wisdom rather than higher education.
The study, by insurance company GoCompare, examined the educational
background of people appearing in the top 1 00 billionaire lists by Forbes
magazine over the past 20 years.
It shows that 76 percent of these billionaires have a degree. Forty-seven
percent of them have a bachelor’s (学士) degree, 23 percent a master’s
(文/理科硕士) degree and 6 percent a doctorate(博士学位). The most popular
subjects were the ones related to economics and engineering. There were many
more studying sciences than arts.
The school attended by the global super rich are also much more likely
to be world-class universities, rather than local ones. Harvard University
is the single most likely name to be found on the resume( 履 历 ) of a
billionaire, though one of the most famous names on the rich list, Bill Gates,
dropped out of Harvard before finishing.
Stanford University in California and the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology have become the launchpads for a rising number of tech
billionaires. Google’s co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin were both
postgraduates at Stanford.
Borthers Charles and David Koch, who are among
the world’s biggest oil tycoons, both got their bachelor’s and master’
s degrees from MIT.
Among U.K. universities, the London School of Economics and Political
Science and the University of Cambridge have the most multi-billionaires
on the Forbes list, while Oxford has produced Rupert Murdoch.
32. The study has found all of the following EXCEPT
A. most billionaires are not self-taught geniuses
B. billionaires are much more likely to have received higher education
C. there are more billionaires without degree at all than those with a
.
master’s degree
D. nearly half of those on Forbes’ top 100 billionaire lists have a
bachelor’s degree
33. Of the following subjects, what is the most likely to have been a college
major of a billionaire?
A. Art history.
B. Computer science.
C.
English literature.
34. What does the underlined word “launchpads” in Paragraph 7 mean?
D. Law.
A. Effective starting points for a career.
B. Favorite places of famous people.
C. Places on the Internet that help you find information.
D. Places where rockets and other spacecraft are sent into space.
35. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?
A. The study was carried out by Forbes magazine.
B. A high percentage of the world’s richest people have a doctorate.
C. Rupert Murdoch went to the London School of Economics and Political
Science.
D. Harvard University has produced more billionaires on the Forbes list
than any other university.
