Ⅰ.阅读理解
In colleges around the country, most students are also workers.
The reality of college can be pretty different from the images presented in movies and television. Instead of the students who wake up late, party all the time, and study only before exams, many colleges are full of students with pressing schedules of not just classes and activities, but real jobs, too.
This isn't a temporary phenomenon. The share of working students has been on the rise since the 1970s, and onefifth of students work year round. About onequarter of those who work while attending school have both a fullcourse load and a fulltime job. Such jobs can also be critical for developing important professional and social skills that make it easier to land a job after graduation. With many employers looking for students with alreadydeveloped skill sets, onthejob training while in college can be the best way to ensure a job later on.
But it's not all upside. Even fulltime work may not completely cover the cost of tuition and living expenses. That means that though they're sacrificing time away from the classroom, many working students will still graduate with at least some debt. And working full time can reduce the chance that students will graduate at all, by cutting into the time available for studying and attending classes.
There is little reward for attending but not finishing college. Students who end up leaving school because of difficulty in managing work and class are likely to find themselves stuck in some of the same jobs they might have gotten if they hadn't gone at all. The difficulty of working too much while in school can create a cycle that pushes students further into debt without receiving any of the financial or career benefits.
1.According to the passage, what is the reality of college students?
A.They throw parties a lot.
B.They stay up late every night.
C.They work besides attending classes.
D.They pay no attention to exams.
2.What is the indirect cause of an increasing number of working students?
A.The need of developing social networks.
B.The lack of summer jobs for young adults.
C.The chance of finding a job after graduation.
D.The expenses of high tuition and living costs.
3.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Working students are more likely to finish college.
B.Students can cover their college expenses through working.
C.Students receive a huge reward for managing work and class.
D.Working while attending school may not help students get career benefits.
4.What is the best title for the passage?
A.The Difficulties of Landing a Job
B.The Struggle of WorkSchool Balance
C.The Reward of Working While Studying
D.The Images of Working College Students
[语篇解读] 这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了大学生在校期间工作的利与弊。
1.C [细节理解题。根据第一段中“In colleges around the country, most students are also workers.(在全国的大学里,大多数学生也是工人)”和第二段中“Instead of the students who wake up late, party all the time, and study only before exams, many colleges are full of students with pressing schedules of not just classes and activities, but real jobs, too.(许多大学里挤满了学生,他们的日程安排很紧,不仅有课程和活动,还有真正的工作,而不是那些起得很晚、总是聚会、只在考试前学习的学生)”可知,在大学里面,多数的学生除了上课,他们还工作。故选C项。]
2.C [推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“With many employers looking for students with alreadydeveloped skill sets, onthejob training while in college can be the best way to ensure a job later on.(很多雇主都在寻找那些已经掌握了技能的学生,所以大学期间的在职培训是确保以后找到工作的最好方法。)”可知,打工学生数量增加的间接原因是毕业后增加了找到工作的机会。故选C项。]
3.D [细节理解题。根据最后一段“The difficulty of working too much while in school can create a cycle that pushes students further into debt without receiving any of the financial or career benefits.(在学校工作太多的困难会造成一个恶性循环,使学生进一步陷入债务,却得不到任何经济或职业上的好处)”可知,在校期间工作太多可能对学生的财务或者职业发展并无益处。故选D项。]
4.B [主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章讲述大学生在校期间工作利与弊。在能完成学业的情况下还能培养自己工作所需要的技能,并能得到一定的物质回报,是好事儿,但是要达到平衡却很困难。选项B“在校期间学习工作平衡的冲突”概括了全文内容,适合作为标题。故选B项。]

Dear_Linda,
I am more than glad to learn that you like to take home some art crafts with Chinese characteristics for your family and friends. Here comes my advice.
I would like to recommend to you two typical Chinese art crafts — china and paper cutting. First, it's a good idea to buy a set of china tea cups, which have been popular with Chinese people for thousands of years and also enjoy a good reputation worldwide. Besides, paper cutting, a delicate craft which needs creativity and careful work, is also a kind of traditional Chinese folk art. I'm sure your family and friends will be fond of the gifts.
Looking_forward_to_your_prompt_reply._
Yours,_
Li_Hua
