Ⅲ. Reading Comprehension

Section A

Directions: There are 2 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You are required to choose the ONE that best fits into the statement. Mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.

Surveys about freshmen tell us why most students go to college: 88% want a "better chance for a good job", and 81% want to be "rich and wealthy". However, most students today cannot reach these goals. One careful study has discovered that the undergraduates are spending less time on study—from about 25 hours per week in the early 1960s to below 15 hours today.

Studying also leads to better college grades. To have better grades means higher chances of becoming "rich and wealthy". One study of 20,000 alumni(校友) 15 years after their graduation found the following results. Those who were in the top third of the class earned a lot more than those in the middle third. The middle third earned more than classmates in the bottom third. Not surprisingly, those whose grades were not good at college wished they had studied more in school.

Whether students should study alone or with others is more complicated. If the teachers leave problems for students to solve, group study is often helpful if students first try to study by themselves. But simply getting together with classmates without first studying alone seems bad for learning. In choosing courses, many students prefer classes with a little homework and easy grading. Yet taking harder courses with longer readings and more papers helps to increase learning.

In college, there will still be plenty of time for fun. Once again, however, researchers find that not all outside activities are good. In general, activities, such as participating in student organizations and talking with classmates can be more fruitful.

Last but not least, college is a wonderful place to have new interests,  enrich your experience, and set your goals. In doing so, you might think again about whether "being rich and wealthy" should be your main reason for studying in college.  According to several investigators, money seekers are usually less satisfied with their lives. Maybe they are more likely to neglect things that are more important, such as family, friends and work.

11、 The majority of students go to college with the goal of ______.

A. serving the country                  B. earning much money

C. becoming famous                    D. seeking fun

12、 Compared with the students in the early 1960s, today's undergraduates spend ______ hours less on study.

A. 15          B. 25                C. 10                D. 40

13、 Which of the following statements is NOT true? ______

A. Grades do affect the chances of becoming rich.

B. Those who got top grades in college wished they had studied harder.

C. Studying alone before getting together in a group can be helpful for students.

D. Challenging courses can give the students more benefit than the easy ones.

14、 Which of the following activities is beneficial for college students? ______

A. Watching TV.        B. Playing with the computer.

C. Serving in student organizations. D. Talking with online friends.

15、 Why do people who focus on making money feel less satisfied with life? ______

A. Because they don't have other hobbies.

B. Because they are single-minded.

Would it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees communicate with each other and transmit their wealth to the next generation?

UBC Professor Simard explains how trees are much more complex than most of us ever imagined. Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their cooperation and support, passing around necessary nutrition "depending on who needs it".

Nitrogen(氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi(真菌) networks, making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons(神经元) in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all.

Simard talks about "mother trees", usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend.  She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down "mother trees" with no awareness of these highly complex "tree societies" or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.

"We didn't take any notice of it," Simard says sadly. "Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them a chance." If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.

16、 Which is the closest meaning of the word "transmit" in Paragraph 1? ______

A. Change.  B. Pass on. C. Exchange. D. Support.

17、 The Underlined sentence "the opposite is true" in Paragraph 2 probably means that trees ______.

A. depend on each other                B. compete for survival

C. protect their own wealth             D. provide support for dying trees

18、 "Mother trees" are very important because they ______.

A. look the largest in size in the forest

B. seem more likely to be cut down by humans

C. pass on nutrition to young trees

D. know more about the complex "tree societies"

19、 The underlined word "it" in the last paragraph refers to ______.

A. how "tree societies" work           B. how trees grow old

C. how forestry industry develops      D. how young trees survive

20、 Which of the following statements is NOT CORRECT according to the passage? ______

A. Trees communicate with each other more deeply than we think.

B. Nitrogen and carbon play very important roles in the forest ecological system.

C. When "mother trees" are cut down, we are reducing the chances of survival for the forest.

D. We couldn't make efforts for the future environmental protection.
