College is a big deal for American students as well as for Chinese students.During the
college application,some parents become extremely worried.This only adds to the pressure.
Before I applied to the colleges,I told my parents I would get everything straightened out.
If I needed any help,I promised that I would ask them.
As it turned out,I had no problem putting everything together on my own,including my
resume and a basic outline of my activities in high school.The only part where I asked my
parents for advice was the essays.In writing and revising the essays,I needed feedback from an
audience.As my parents know me better than anyone,they were perfect for the job.
The essays are extremely important in college admissions.In a competitive pool of
applicants,the test scores and activities,as well as the recommendations are all going to be
英语笔试第5页(共12页)
very similar.The essays are the one area in which students can make themselves stand out
Essays don't have to be big and complicated.I wrote three essays,mainly focusing on small
matters and using simple sentences.The admissions officers have to read hundreds of essays a
day;they are already tired of SAT vocabularies and long sentences.Therefore,a
straightforward writing style is refreshing to their eyes as well as their minds.Essays were the
key to my success in the admissions game.Ijust wrote about what I wanted to say,not whatI
thought the admissions officers would like to hear.
In my main narrative-style essay,I told the story of my American journey at the age of 14.
During that time,I was not bogged down (by trying to fit into a new environment;
instead,I looked up to Mother Teresa for guidance and strength.I found my new self and grew
to love the name Teresa and the memories it held.
In my two minor essays,I explained the major events of my life,why I loved writing and
why my dad is the person who has the greatest influence on me.Both provided details of my
character.The essay about writing,which is titled "I Shall Not Live in Vain"(inspired by an
Emily Dickinson poem),eamned a lot of praise.It is because I really looked into my heart and
thought deeply in order to reach my answers.Looking back upon those days,I really appreciate
what I have done to help me finally make it.
41.I asked my parents for advice about my essays because
A.they are more experienced
B.they know me perfectly well
C.they are the only people I can rely on
D.they are extremely worried about my application

Hundreds of people die at sea every year due to ship and airplane accidents.Emergency
teams have little time to rescue those in the water because the probability of finding a person
alive falls dramatically after six hours.Beyond tides and challenging weather conditions,
unsteady coastal currents often make search and rescue operations extremely difficult.
New insight into coastal flows gained by an international research team led by Geroge
Haller,Professor of Nonlinear Dynamics at ETH Zurich,promises to enhance the search and
rescue techniques currently in use.Using tools from dynamical systems theory and ocean data,
the team has developed an algorithm to predict where objects and people floating in water will
go."Our work has a clear potential to save lives,"says Mattia Serra,the first author of a study
recently published in Nature Communications.
In today's rescue operation at sea,complicated models of ocean dynamics and weather
forecasting are used to predict the path of floating objects.For fast-changing coastal waters,
however,such predictions are often inaccurate due to uncertain boundaries and missing data.
As a result,a search may be launched in the wrong location,causing a loss of precious time.
Haller's research team obtained mathematical results predicting that objects floating on
the ocean's surface should gather along a few special curves()which they call Transient
Attracting Profiles(TRAPs).These curves can't be seen with our eyes but can be tracked from
instant ocean surface current data using recent mathematical methods developed by the ETH
team.This enables quick and precise planning of search paths that are less sensitive to
uncertainties in the time and place of the accident.
In cooperation with a team from MIT,the ETH team tested their new,TRAP-based search
algorithm in two separate ocean experiments near Martha's Vineyard,which is on the
northeastern coast of the United States.Working from the same real-time data available to the
Coast Guard,the team successfully identified TRAPs in the region in real-time.They found
that buoys and manikins(浮标和人体模型)thrown in the water indeed quickly gathered along
英语笔试第7页(共12页)
these emerging curves."Of several competing approaches tested in the project,this was the
only algorithm that consistently found the right location,"says Haller.
"Our results are rapidly obtained,easy to interpret,and cheap to perform,"points out
Serra.Haller stresses:"Our hope is that this method will become a standard part of the tool kit
of coast guards everywhere."
46.In a search and rescue operation,
A.the survival rate drops to almost zero after six hours
B.the use of dynamics leads to the wrong location
C.weather conditions are a determining factor
D.changing currents present a challenge
47.The main significance of the new algorithm is
A.accurately predicting weather conditions during rescue operations
B.dependence on satellite technology to locate distressed individuals at sea
C.cost-effective,efficient tracking of objects and individuals in coastal waters.
D.predicting the exact time and location of ocean accidents
48.What is the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 2?
A.a mathematical way of operating data
B.a principle in science and technology
C.a software to locate anything floated
D.an approach to rescue lives
49.Paragraph 5 mainly talks about
A.the collection of data
B.the testing of the algorithm
C.the identification of the TRAPs
D.the cooperation of two research teams
50.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A.How Mathematics Can Save Lives at Sea
B.How Coastal Waters Affect Saving Lives
C.Why Algorithms Are Popular in Rescue Operations
D.Why Success Rates of Rescue Operations Have Fallen

Have you ever found that those so-called classical literature is actually boring and wordy?
Have you ever been employed to read such works with total reluctance and unwillingness?
However,these works,when published,suddenly became a hit all around the world,and won a
large number of followers.Why here exists the huge distinction between their venerable fames
and your natural judgement?
The answer lies not in the works themselves,but in the mismatch between readers'
expectations and the historical context in which these texts were created.Classics reflect the
language,values,and concerns of their own time,which can feel distant or irrelevant to modern
readers.Long-winded descriptons,unfamiliar social customs,and archaic sentence structures
can be barriers to engagement.However,labeling them as boring overlooks the lasting human
truths they contain-truths that have resonated for generations.
One key reason we struggle to connect with classical literature is that these works explore
deep emotions and moral dilemmas-love,guilt,ambition,loss-that resonate most when
we've lived through similar experiences ourselves.It is difficult to appreciate Shakespeare's
meditation on mortality in Hamlet until we have lost someone we love;it is hard to understand
Jane Eyre's moral independence without having struggled with our own identity.These books
don't lack meaning-we simply haven't grown into them yet.
Like a child who cannot fully grasp the complexities of adult life,an inexperienced reader
may fail to see the emotional depth of classic literature.That's why the same book can feel
entirely different when read at different stages of life.A passage that once seemed dull may
suddenly feel profound.A character's decision that once seemed irrational may now appear
deeply human.Classics don't change-but we do.Our growth brings new insights into old
texts.
More importantly,literature helps us practice empathy.By stepping into the shoes of
people from different times,cultures,and social classes,we broaden our emotional perspectives.
We are exposed to ways of thinking and feeling that may be unfamiliar but are essential to
understanding the human experience.
So perhaps the problem is not with the books,but with how we approach them.Some
books ask us to slow down,think harder,and feel deeper.That is not a flaw()it is their
strength.And as we gain more life experience,these works reveal their beauty,wisdom,and
英语笔试第9页(共12页)
reee.Throughem,eon't just understand literatureweometounderstand others,
and ultimately,ourselves.
51.What is the main reason the author suggests modem readers may struggle with classical
Literature?
A.Classical literature uses outdated vocabulary
B.Classical works reflect values and concerns from a different historical context
C.Modern readers lack interest in older texts
D.Classical works are too short to engage with deeply
52.According to the article,why might a young reader find Hamlet or Jane Eyre difficult to
relate to?
A.They carry many special designs of plots
B.They have not yet experienced similar emotions
C.They have little empathetic ability
D.The characters are too unrealistic
53.What is the primary purpose of literature,as described in the article?
A.To entertain readers with exciting plots
B.To expose readers to different historical periods
C.To help readers practice empathy and understand others
D.To teach readers about the complexities of life
54.What is the central argument of the article?
A.Classical literature is irrelevant to modern readers
B.We should approach classical works with openness and patience
C.Modern literature is superior to classical literature
D.Some classical literature should be rewritten for modern readers
55.Which of the following best summarizes the article's view on classical literature?
A.Classical literature is outdated and should be replaced by modern works
B Modern readers should learn to read classical literature carefully
C Classical literature is useful for academic study and personal growth
D.Classical works has its necessary values behind
