Work, Volunteer… Graduate!

I have some good news and some bad news. First, the bad news: just having good grades may not be    31    to get you your high school diploma. That’s because, as of last year, students are required to complete 90 days of    32    training and 60 hours of volunteering in order to graduate. Now, the good news: the new requirements are going to give you a    33    start in coping with the real world after your school days are over.

The Ministry of Education made the changes because it wants students to break out of their cocoons. Much like Mark Twain’s famous quote: “I have never let my schooling    34    will my education,” the ministry feels there are    35    and necessary lessons to be learned outside of the classroom— lessons such as the responsibilities required in a workplace and, by volunteering, the responsibilities required of a good citizen.

The ministry’s changes, however, may be somewhat problematic. Students are already overwhelmed with schoolwork, so where will they find the time? While many organizations need volunteers on weekends and you can easily    36    that part of the requirement, finding a place to do your practical training will be more difficult. It will probably have to be done during vacations.

Many Western companies offer internships and summer jobs to high school students. They see it as part of their corporate responsibility and it’s also a good way for them to    37    potential employees. Chinese companies, however, offer fewer internships and summer jobs, and their programs are not well-developed.

Students may just end up sitting around all day. Worse yet, there are some companies which do hire students but just to exploit their    38    . There are stories of vocational school students who, as part of their practical training, are sent to factories where they assemble computer parts. They spend long hours on an assembly line and are paid low wages. Not much to learn there except how to be tired, bored and    39    .

    40    , your practical experience will be better and you will learn useful lessons. The most important of which is, as one businessman said, “In the workplace, you have to get an A-plus all the time— being ‘just good enough’ just isn’t good enough.”

III. Reading Comprehension (45%)

Section A (15%)

Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C, D. fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fit the context. (每小题1分，共15分)

Winston Churchill began his love affair with painting in his 40s, under disastrous circumstances.    41    First Lord of the Admiralty (海军) in 1915, he was deeply involved in a campaign in Dardanelles that could have    42    the course of a bloody world war.    43    when the mission failed, with great loss of life, he paid price both publicly and privately. He was    44    from the admiralty.

“Defeated by the failure, I thought he would    45    grief,” said his wife, Clementine. He retired with his family to Hoe Farm. There, as Churchill later recalled, “The inspiration of painting came to my    46    !”

After the war, painting would offer deep    47    . When, in 1921, the death of mother was followed two months later by the    48    of his beloved daughter, Marigold. Hit by grief, Churchill stayed at the home of friends in Scotland, finding comfort in his painting. He wrote to Clementine: “I went out and painted a beautiful river in the afternoon light with golden hills in the    49    . I keep    50    the hurt of losing Marigold”.

Historians have called the decade after 1929, when the Conservative government fell and Churchill was
