They work for a little over minimum wage and I often wonder how they make ends meet. One of the clerks, Charlie, was always wearing his glasses but he didnt one day. I asked him about it and he said theyd been out of order and that he couldnt afford a new pair. His family needed money. It was obvious that he was having a difficult time.We wanted to help him, so we turned to our own eye doctor for assistance with a plan. We had his secretary contact him, asking him to e in for an eye exam for free. We told the doctor to let him order whatever glasses he wanted and that we would pay for them. Although Charlie questioned what was going on, the doctor just told him that someone had offered the money for his new glasses. When we went in to pay the bill, the doctor told us he was so touched by our idea that he waived the exam fee and only charged us for half the price of the glasses!It was so wonderful to see Charlie in her new glasses and he enjoyed telling all the regular customers how the gift came about. Im sure that upon hearing her story, ideas of kindness may have emerged in the minds of many. 4. Why didnt the clerk Charlie wear glasses one day?A. It was very warm and fine.B.

Questions arise, though, when it es to all of the decisions involved in choosing a college.One of the first considerations may be finance. State and public colleges are often the least expensive. Often, though, the better colleges are private and more expensive. It is sad when gifted students cannot attend a college of their choice just for financial reasons.Another major factor is location. Whether the college is in a small town or large city can have a major impact on its activities. A water lover probably will be more fortable spending four years near an ocean or a lake. Those who cannot tolerate heat will probably be more fortable at a northern college. Distance from home may also e into consideration. If family is a top priority, that person should stay close to home; on the other hand, if independence is desired, a campus farther from home would be more appropriate.School size also plays a major role in the decision process. If you want to get to know your teachers, a small college is suitable. For those of you who consider yourself a “ people person” and want a wide range of activities, a large college is more fitting. Your area of interest is another factor to consider in the decision-making process if you want to get the most from your education. The whole point of college is to learn what is of interest to you.Crucially(至关重要地), one must take into consideration the colleges by which you can realistically be accepted. An Ivy League school for an average student would probably not be a good match. Similarly, an average school for an above-average student would not work well. The college should provide enough of a challenge for the student to work hard. Although there may not be the perfect college out there, there probably will be one that is close. Those who cannot find a suitable college are probably not looking hard enough.8.When it es to going to college the author thinks _.A. financial situation is the first to consider B. students are unwilling to leave their homeC. students will bee homesick D. students are eager to attend their ideal university9.What is the main idea of the third paragraph?A. Students can be independent at college. B. A long distance will make students upset.C. The location of the college is a main factor. D. The climate must be taken into consideration.10.What does the underlined part “ people person” in the passage mean? A. A person of great capacity. B. A very particular person. C. A very sociable person. D. A person of great importance.11.Which is the most important factor when choosing a college? A. The location of a college. B. The examination result. C. School size. D. The ing challenges.DWhile famous foreign architects are invited to lead the designs of landmark buildings in China such as the new CCTV tower and the National Center for the Performing Arts, many excellent Chinese architects are making great efforts to take the center stage. Their efforts have been proven fruitful. Wang Shu, a 49-year-old Chinese architect, won the xx Pritzker Architecture Prize which is often referred to as the Nobel Prize in architecture on February 28. He is the first Chinese citizen to win this award. Wang serves as head of the Architecture Department at the China Academy of Art (CAA). His office is located at the Xiangshan campus(校园) of the university in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. Many buildings on the campus are his original creations. The style of the campus is quite different from that of most Chinese universities. Many visitors were amazed by the plex architectural space and abundant building types. The curves(曲线) of the buildings perfectly match the rise and fall of hills, forming a unique view. Wang collected more than 7 million abandoned bricks of different ages. He asked the workers to use traditional techniques to make the bricks into walls, roofs and corridors. This creation attracted a lot of attention thanks to its mixture of modern and traditional Chinese elements(元素). Wangs works show a deep understanding of modern architecture and a good knowledge of traditions. Through such a balance, he had created a new type of Chinese architecture, said Tadao Ando, the winner of the 1995 Pritzker Prize. Wang believes traditions should not be sealed in glass boxes at museums. That is only evidence that traditions once existed, he said.Many Chinese people have a misunderstanding of traditions. They think tradition means old things from the past. In fact, tradition also refers to the things that have been developing and that are still being created, he said. Today, many Chinese people are learning Western styles and theories rather than focusing on Chinese traditions. Many people tend to talk about traditions without knowing what they really are, said Wang. The study of traditions should be bined with practice. Otherwise, the recreation of traditions would be artificial and empty, he said. 12.Wangs winning of the prize means that Chinese architects are _. A.following the latest world trend B. getting international recognitionC. working harder than ever before D. relying on foreign architects13.What impressed visitors to the CAA Xiangshan campus most? A. Its hilly environment. B. Its large size. C. Its unique style. D. Its diverse functions.14.What made Wangs architectural design a success? A. The mixture of different shapes. B. The balance of East and West.C. The use of popular techniques. D. The harmony of old and new.15.What should we do about Chinese traditions according to Wang? A. Spread them to the world. B. Preserve them at museums.C. Teach them in universities. D. Recreate them in practice.第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容， 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项 Color is fundamental in home design-something youll always have in every room.

This new trend is being increasingly popular in recent years. This phenomenon shows that our living standard has been rising greatly and more and more families attach great importance to childrens education. Its well known that some oversea schools offer better education with advanced facilities and teaching concepts. So its a wise choice for the rich families to send their children abroad because they can afford the high tuition fees. Besides, while living abroad, these children will have to learn to be independent and try to take care of themselves. I think this experience will be beneficial to their further development.
