Let’s get started by checking out Student Guide for your academic journey! Signing up for ESL (English as a Second Language) ESL courses are designed to help international students improve academic English language skills. Enrollment (课程注册) priority is given to degree students. If space is available, you may enroll. You will then be asked to take an ESL Placement Test. The test results will help you choose the class that is appropriate for you. Changing Your Course Enrollment List You may change your class schedule during the first two weeks of the term by adding or dropping courses from your enrollment list. After the second week of classes, there will be a charge for each schedule change. Students often attend classes in which they are not enrolled on the first day of instruction to try adding this new course to the list, as other students may have dropped it. Withdrawing from Courses If you choose to drop a course, you must follow the UCLA procedures for removing it from your schedule. If you forget to officially drop that course, a “F” (Fail) grade will be registered on your record at the end of the term. If, at a later date, you wish to apply for a job or graduate school where an official copy of your UCLA record is required, it will be to your advantage to provide an impressive academic record. Taking Exams Some instructors choose to put previous test papers on library reserve,  making them available to all students.

For most students, it’s the first time they’re living away from home and managing their own life. Not surprisingly, adapting to this new lifestyle can be challenging. The following four tips will make high school graduates better prepared for college life. Goal setting When setting goals, whether they’re academic, career, or personal, re-member they should be attainable but not too easy, so that you really have to push yourself to achieve them, and feel rewarded when you do. Writing down your goals and breaking down each huge, long-term goal into smaller more practical ones can help make it feel more real, and writing out a plan for achieving it can give you a roadmap to success. Interpersonal skills At college, you will interact with fellow students, professors, librarians, and many others. Strong interpersonal skills will help you build relationships during this time, and get more out of them. If you feel that your interpersonal skills need some work, practice asking thoughtful questions and listening closely, develop your understanding by putting yourself in someone else’s shoes, and enhance your self-confidence. Studying With fewer in-class hours and more on-your-own learning, you’re required to really digest learning material rather than simply memorize facts. To be successful in college you’ll need to learn how to integrate large amounts of information obtained through reading, do research, and write papers. Organization is the key, so if you are not someone who is naturally organized, set up your study schedule. Budgeting Managing money is a critical life skill, and for many, it is at college that they develop it for the first time. Start by estimating your financial balance. Then give high priority to the expenses on basic needs and determine how much money to set aside every month to cover those costs. Don’t forget about savings…and the fun stuff(movies, dinners out), too. 1.Who is this passage most probably written for? A.College teachers. B.University graduates. C.High school teachers. D.Would-be college students. 【答案】1.D 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍了高中毕业生如何为大学生活做更好准备的四个技巧。 1.推理判断题。根据第一段中的首句“Getting into college is a big step for high school graduates, and it comes with a lot of changes.(对于高中毕业生来说,进入大学是一大步,它带来了很多变化。 )”和最后一句“The following four tips will make high school graduates better prepared for college life.(以下四个技巧将使高中毕业生为大学生活做好更好的准备。)”可知,该文主要针对于高中毕业生的。故选D项。 【变式2-1】(2025·天津和平·一模)WHAT’S ON IN WINTER Winter is here but shorter days don’t mean less to do.

Here are key applications of AI in modern agriculture:Precision Farming AI-powered sensors and drones collect real-time data on soil moisture, nutrient levels, and crop health. Machine learning algorithms analyze this data to optimize irrigation, fertilizer use, and pest control. For example, a farmer in California reduced water usage by 30% using AI-guided irrigation systems.Crop Disease Detection AI image recognition tools can identify plant diseases early by analyzing photos of leaves or fruits. A study by the University of Tokyo showed that AI systems achieved 98% accuracy in detecting tomato blight, far surpassing human capabilities.Autonomous Farming Equipment Self-driving tractors and harvesters equipped with AI navigate fields, plant seeds, and harvest crops with minimal human intervention. These machines use GPS and computer vision to avoid obstacles and ensure precise operations.Yield Prediction By processing historical data, weather patterns, and satellite imagery, AI models predict crop yields months in advance. This helps governments and organizations plan food distribution and prevent shortages. In India, AI-based predictions helped farmers increase wheat production by 15% in 2024.Livestock Monitoring Wearable AI devices track animal health, detecting illnesses or stress through changes in movement, temperature, or vocalizations. Dairy farms in the Netherlands reported a 20% drop in cattle mortality after adopting AI monitoring systems: Despite its benefits, we must be vigilant of challenges AI adoption faces, such as high initial costs and the need for digital infrastructure in rural areas.

While these practices are seen as cultural expressions rather than guarantees of wish fulfillment, many visitors enjoy participating just as a way to express good wishes. Fountain of Wealth, Suntec City, Singapore Listed by the Guinness Book of Records in 1998 as the largest fountain in the world, the Fountain of Wealth is located in one of Singapore’s largest shopping malls, Suntec City. The fountain is said to be rich in positive energy, which visitors can absorb by touching the water. The fountain is turned off periodically throughout the year, giving visitors the chance to walk around the fountain and collect coins, which are believed to possess charm and good luck. Abraham Lincoln’s Tomb, Illinois, USA The final resting place of the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln’s tomb is decorated with statues, but none is quite as famous as the large bronze statue in front of the memorial. About 200,000 people visit the tomb each year, many rubbing Abraham’s nose. Some believe that rubbing the nose of any statue brings good luck, and with the nose of a person successful enough to become the president within arm’s reach, it makes sense that people take advantage. Blarney Stone, Cork, Ireland They don’t call it the luck of the Irish for nothing! Legend has it that kissing the Blarney Stone at Blarney Castle in Cork, Ireland will bring you “the gift of speech or debate”. Sir Winston Churchill and Mick Jagger have both reportedly made their luck at this very site. However, it’s not easy to kiss this stone of eloquence. Visitors must lean backward over a parapet (护栏). The Guardhouse Monkey, Mons, Belgium Located just outside of the Mons City Hall in Belgium, a small metal monkey has become a big attraction. Legend has it that if you rub the sculpture’s head, you’ll be blessed with good luck. The monkey’s head has been rubbed so many times in hopes of fulfilling people’ wishes that its head is now shiny. 31.Which statement is TRUE about Fountain of Wealth? A.It has held the title of the world’s tallest fountain since 1998. B.Visitors can only admire the fountain after they shop in Suntec City. C.It is said that touching the water of the fountain is beneficial for visitors. D.Visitors can walk around the fountain and collect coins when it is operating. 32.What can we learn about Abraham Lincoln according to Paragraph 3? A.He passed away in the 16th century. B.He designed the decoration of the statue. C.His statue was badly damaged by visitors. D.He was a president and admired by people. 33.The underlined word “eloquence” in the passage refers to ______. A.the spirit of passing down traditions B.the luck of winning competitions C.the ability to speak in a fluent and persuasive way D.the skill of leaning backward over the parapet 34.What has caused the Guardhouse Monkey’s head to become shiny? A.Being located just outside of the Mons City Hall in Belgium. B.Having been rubbed repeatedly by visitors seeking good luck. C.Being made of a spcial metal that naturally becomes polished. D.Being exposed to years of weather and sunshine. 35.Where is the passage most probably taken from? A.A travel magazine. B.A collection of folk tales. C.A news report. D.A science fiction. 【答案】31.C 32.D 33.C 34.B 35.A 【导语】这是一篇应用文,文章介绍了一些具有和好运有关的喷泉、雕像或传统的景点。 31.细节理解题。根据Fountain of Wealth部分中“The fountain is said to be rich in positive energy, which visitors can absorb by touching the water.(据说这座喷泉富含正能量,游客可以通过触摸水来吸收正能量)”可知,据说触摸喷泉的水对游客有益。故选C。 32.细节理解题。根据Abraham Lincoln’s Tomb部分中“The final resting place of the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln’s tomb is decorated with statues, but none is quite as famous as the large bronze statue in front of the memorial. About 200,000 people visit the tomb each year (作为美国第16任总统亚伯拉罕·林肯的最后安息之地,林肯墓上装饰着雕像,但没有一个像纪念碑前的大型青铜雕像那样著名。每年约有20万人参观坟墓)”可知,林肯是一位总统,受到人们的敬仰,故选D。 33.词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Legend has it that kissing the Blarney Stone at Blarney Castle in Cork, Ireland will bring you ‘the gift of speech or debate’.(传说,亲吻爱尔兰科克郡布拉尼城堡的布拉尼石会给你带来‘演讲或辩论的礼物’)”可知,传说亲吻这块石头,口才会变好,由此推知划线词所在句意为“然而,要亲吻这块雄辩之石并不容易”,eloquence意为“口才,雄辩”,C项“流利而有说服力的说话能力”符合题意,故选C。 34.细节理解题。根据The Guardhouse Monkey部分中“The monkey’s head has been rubbed so many times in hopes of fulfilling people’ wishes that its head is now shiny.(为了满足人们的愿望,这只猴子的头被揉了很多次,现在它的头闪闪发光)”可知,由于被寻求好运的游客反复摩擦,卫兵猴的头变得闪闪发光,故选B。 35.推理判断题。根据全文内容,结合第一段“Whether it’s good health, a prosperous career or to be lucky in love, certain fountains, statues, and traditions are linked with good fortune in some tourist attractions. While these practices are seen as cultural expressions rather than guarantees of wish fulfillment, many visitors enjoy participating just as a way to express good wishes.(在一些旅游景点,无论是健康、事业有成还是爱情幸运,某些喷泉、雕像和传统都与好运有关。虽然这些做法被视为一种文化表达,而不是愿望实现的保证,但许多游客喜欢参与其中,只是作为表达美好愿望的一种方式)”可知,文章介绍了一些具有和好运有关的喷泉、雕像或传统的景点,应是出自一个旅游杂志,故选A。 8.(2025·天津北辰·三模)Here is some information about the application for graduate study at the University of Washington (UW).Degree Types Applications are for the following three types of students.

For most students, it’s the first time they’re living away from home and managing their own life. Not surprisingly, adapting to this new lifestyle can be challenging. The following four tips will make high school graduates better prepared for college life. Goal setting When setting goals, whether they’re academic, career, or personal, re-member they should be attainable but not too easy, so that you really have to push yourself to achieve them, and feel rewarded when you do. Writing down your goals and breaking down each huge, long-term goal into smaller more practical ones can help make it feel more real, and writing out a plan for achieving it can give you a roadmap to success. Interpersonal skills At college, you will interact with fellow students, professors, librarians, and many others. Strong interpersonal skills will help you build relationships during this time, and get more out of them. If you feel that your interpersonal skills need some work, practice asking thoughtful questions and listening closely, develop your understanding by putting yourself in someone else’s shoes, and enhance your self-confidence. Studying With fewer in-class hours and more on-your-own learning, you’re required to really digest learning material rather than simply memorize facts. To be successful in college you’ll need to learn how to integrate large amounts of information obtained through reading, do research, and write papers. Organization is the key, so if you are not someone who is naturally organized, set up your study schedule. Budgeting Managing money is a critical life skill, and for many, it is at college that they develop it for the first time. Start by estimating your financial balance. Then give high priority to the expenses on basic needs and determine how much money to set aside every month to cover those costs. Don’t forget about savings…and the fun stuff(movies, dinners out), too. 1.Who is this passage most probably written for? A.College teachers. B.University graduates. C.High school teachers.

Here are key applications of AI in modern agriculture:Precision Farming AI-powered sensors and drones collect real-time data on soil moisture, nutrient levels, and crop health. Machine learning algorithms analyze this data to optimize irrigation, fertilizer use, and pest control. For example, a farmer in California reduced water usage by 30% using AI-guided irrigation systems.Crop Disease Detection AI image recognition tools can identify plant diseases early by analyzing photos of leaves or fruits. A study by the University of Tokyo showed that AI systems achieved 98% accuracy in detecting tomato blight, far surpassing human capabilities.Autonomous Farming Equipment Self-driving tractors and harvesters equipped with AI navigate fields, plant seeds, and harvest crops with minimal human intervention. These machines use GPS and computer vision to avoid obstacles and ensure precise operations.Yield Prediction By processing historical data, weather patterns, and satellite imagery, AI models predict crop yields months in advance. This helps governments and organizations plan food distribution and prevent shortages. In India, AI-based predictions helped farmers increase wheat production by 15% in 2024.Livestock Monitoring Wearable AI devices track animal health, detecting illnesses or stress through changes in movement, temperature, or vocalizations. Dairy farms in the Netherlands reported a 20% drop in cattle mortality after adopting AI monitoring systems: Despite its benefits, we must be vigilant of challenges AI adoption faces, such as high initial costs and the need for digital infrastructure in rural areas.

While these practices are seen as cultural expressions rather than guarantees of wish fulfillment, many visitors enjoy participating just as a way to express good wishes. Fountain of Wealth, Suntec City, Singapore Listed by the Guinness Book of Records in 1998 as the largest fountain in the world, the Fountain of Wealth is located in one of Singapore’s largest shopping malls, Suntec City. The fountain is said to be rich in positive energy, which visitors can absorb by touching the water. The fountain is turned off periodically throughout the year, giving visitors the chance to walk around the fountain and collect coins, which are believed to possess charm and good luck. Abraham Lincoln’s Tomb, Illinois, USA The final resting place of the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln’s tomb is decorated with statues, but none is quite as famous as the large bronze statue in front of the memorial. About 200,000 people visit the tomb each year, many rubbing Abraham’s nose. Some believe that rubbing the nose of any statue brings good luck, and with the nose of a person successful enough to become the president within arm’s reach, it makes sense that people take advantage. Blarney Stone, Cork, Ireland They don’t call it the luck of the Irish for nothing! Legend has it that kissing the Blarney Stone at Blarney Castle in Cork, Ireland will bring you “the gift of speech or debate”. Sir Winston Churchill and Mick Jagger have both reportedly made their luck at this very site. However, it’s not easy to kiss this stone of eloquence. Visitors must lean backward over a parapet (护栏). The Guardhouse Monkey, Mons, Belgium Located just outside of the Mons City Hall in Belgium, a small metal monkey has become a big attraction. Legend has it that if you rub the sculpture’s head, you’ll be blessed with good luck.
