His father was 44 . “We might not play baseball, but we can play music together.”When Patrick was at the University of Louisville, his father 45 classes with him.

But graduate school is costly, time consuming and requires a lot of in-depth study, and also parents will lay down more money and banks will supply more student loans.However, there are some students who should be pursuing graduate degrees. Teachers, lawyers, doctors, professors and ministers are a few examples of those who will benefit from class work past a bachelors degree. Their professions call for additional courses and more specialization and therefore higher education is a must. Still, all students in general should not adopt the idea that graduate school is necessary for individuals who want to make more money. Working hard right after college can lead to promotions in the future. It seems that it does more good to network or internship（实习）with professionals while pursing a bachelors degree than it does to plete a masters and distant oneself from the world of work.If a student graduates with a four-year degree and immediately enters the work force , he will most likely start an entry-level pay. In a couple of years this employee will gain seniority and experience, therefore increasing their chance for pay rise. He will learn the information at his job-site that he did not learn in school. His bachelors degree loan can be immediately chipped away ,and his maturity level can increase as real work related responsibilities set in. But, if the student pursues a masters degree, he may be able to demand more pay initially when he finally goes job hunting, but years of serious money making as well as work experience will already be lost.Students should not shy from the workforce just because uncertainty follows graduation. Those who pursue a graduate degree just because they do not want to leave school and because they view the “real world” as scary should think again. Using graduate studies as a hiding place from the full-time job is a waste of time.56.College graduates who go to work can _ than those who pursue graduate degrees.A. make more money in the future B. acquire more experienceC. get a better jobD. bee more responsible57.The underlined words “chipped away” can most possibly be replaced by_.A. given out B. set down C. thrown away D. paid off58. What would be the best title for the passage?A. College graduates shouldnt pursue graduate degrees B. College graduates should think twiceC. How can college graduates make more money?D. Students use graduate school to avoid reality BOne way to sell stuff is to make things that people want to buy. Another way is to offer “free trials” and then hit customers with bills. This brings us to PDC Education Ltd, run by Rebecca Jordan and Kirsty Weir of Leeds, whose website teaching-resources-uk offers teaching plans for teachers.Rosemarie Brady, finance manager of Rutlish School in Merton, southwest London, tells us that one teacher called Amanda Seyfried downloaded the “free” resources. “Unfortunately in very small print, they state that unless the free trial is cancelled, then you will be charged,” she says.A year has gone by and now theyve been sent a second bill for 500 pounds, just because they forgot to cancel the “free trial”.Merton Counciland its not the only onehas sent a warning to all its schools saying: “ Only in the very (easily missed) small print of the terms and conditions is it explained that, after the 14-day trial, schools will be automatically signed for a two-year contact with the pany.”“This will only be stopped if the teacher who requested the trial writes directly to PDC to cancel before the 14 days have expired(期满). The fee can be as much as hundreds of pounds, with the threat of debt recovery if they are not paid.”Among the online plaints is this one from a teacher. “How disappointed I am that they will not even consider seriously re-negotiating the invoice(清单).”Rebecca Jordan of PDC Education said, “ The whole purpose behind the free trial is that we have confidence in our business. This free trial period gives teachers the chance to see what is on offer without having to mit to a payment.”Only a “very small number” of teachers have plained when they receive an invoice, she added. “ Their only plaint is that they have not checked what they are signing up to but that is not our fault, the position is totally clear. The prices and the trial terms are clear to see on the online sign up page.”Its true the terms and conditions are on their website. But perhaps its unhelpful that they run to almost 3000 words.59. We know from the passage that_.A. Merton Council suggests that PDC Education Ltd should be closed downB. the website teaching-resources-uk uses tricks to cheat people out of moneyC. the users plained that they had not been informed of writing to PDC earlierD. the education website promises to enlarge their warning print and cut down the term60. Which of the following words best describes the authors attitude towards PDC?A. Critical B. Reserved C. Doubtful D. Positive61. What might be the best title for the passage?A. An education website B. A lesson in “free” trialsC. A mysterious invoice D. Traps on the webCWhy are people interested in eating raw foods or whole foods? One reason is that eating these types of food reduces the risk of acid accumulation in your body.Raw and whole foods are usually digested more efficiently than cooked and refined foods. When we cook foods, we destroy the natural enzymes (酶) that are part of the food in its raw form. These enzymes were intended by nature to help us digest the food. When we consume food without these natural enzymes, our bodies either digest the food improperly or allow too many nutrients to be absorbed into the bloodstream. In both instances, the result is obesity（肥胖）. When too many nutrients are absorbed at once, the body grows fat. Improperly digested food moves slowly through the digestive tract（消化道）, where it bees increasingly acidic. To protect its vital organs from this acidic waste, the body changes the acid into fat and stores it safely away from the organs.Processed foods contain chemical elements, which might confuse the appetite mechanism that tells us when weve had enough to eat; as a result, people often overeat. Processed foods also upset the digestive cycle. The body will either identify these foods as allergens（过敏原） and then store them safely away from the organs as fat, or the remains of undigested food will bee acidic and enter the bloodstream as acid waste, which will stick to the blood vessel walls and block the passage of vital oxygen and nutrients heading for the bodys cells. The bodys metabolism (新陈代谢) bees inactive, and the result is weight gain and obesity. The accumulation of acid in the digestive tract makes digestion increasingly inefficient. When that happens, even healthy foods can bee acidic and the food allergies will bee more mon. To stop this vicious circle in its tracks, people need to consume food and supplements that will neutralize（中和）the acid already accumulated in body. Eating the right types of raw and whole foods can help. Its also important to restore your enzyme balance. You need to identify and avoid the foods that cause acid accumulation and consume the foods that increase enzyme production. If you truly want to change and help your body heal itself, you need to take an active approach.62. It can be inferred from Para. 2 that _. A. foods with natural enzymes help people keep fit B. wed better be cautious about raw and whole foods C. it is essential for people to protect their vital organs D. giving up cooked and refined foods is a new lifestyle 63. Processed foods are unhealthy because they _.A. destroy bodys cells B. may lead to obesity C. are difficult to digest D. stop bodys metabolism 64. What is the main purpose of this passage?A. To warn people of the problem of obesity.B. To advocate eating more raw and whole foods. C. To inform people of the harm of processed foods.D. To tell the differences between raw and processed foods.65. What is likely to be talked about following the last paragraph?A. Different causes of acid accumulation. B. Correct ways to cook raw foods.C. Suitable types of raw and whole foods.D. Active approaches to avoid acid.DAdvertisers tend to think big and perhaps this is why theyre always getting criticism. Their critics（批评家）seem to resent（对.不满） them because they have a gift for self-promotion and because they have so much money to throw around. Its unjust, they say, that this entirely unproductive industry (if we can call it that) should absorb millions of pounds each year. It only goes to show how much profit the big panies are making. Why dont they stop advertising and reduce the price of their goods? After all, its the consumer who paysThe poor old consumer! Hed have to pay a great deal more if advertising didnt create mass markets for products. It is precisely because of the heavy advertising that consumer goods are so cheap. But we get the wrong idea if we think the only purpose of advertising is to sell goods. Another equally important function is to inform. A great deal of the knowledge we have about household goods es largely from the advertisements we read. Advertisements introduce us to new products or remind us of the existence of ones we already know about. Supposing you wanted to buy a washing machine, it is more than likely you would obtain details regarding performance, price, etc., from an advertisement.Lots of people pretend that they never read advertisements, but this claim may be seriously doubted. It is hardly possible not to read advertisements these days. And what fun they often are, too! Just think what a railway station or a newspaper would be like without advertisements. Would you enjoy gazing at a blank wall or reading railway byelaws(内部规则) while waiting for a train? Would you like to read only closely printed columns of news in your daily paper? A cheerful, witty advertisement makes such a difference to a dull wall or a newspaper full of the daily ration(定量) of disasters.We must not forget, either, that advertising makes a positive contribution to our pockets. Newspapers, mercial radio and television panies could not survive without this source of revenue（收益）. The fact that we pay so little for our daily paper or can enjoy so many broadcast programs is due entirely to the money spent by advertisers. Just think what a newspaper would cost if we had to pay its full price!Another thing we mustnt forget is the small ads. which are in virtually every newspaper and magazine. What a tremendously useful service they perform for the munity! Just about anything can be acplished through these columns. For instance, you can find a job, buy or sell a house, announce a birth, marriage or death in what used to be called the hatch（giving birth）, match and dispatch column but by far the most fascinating section is the personal or agony column（读者来信专栏）. No other item in a newspaper provides such entertaining reading or offers suc
