It is a plain fact that we are in a world where competition is going on in all areas and at all levels. This is exciting.
People choose to learn things that are useful,and do things that are profitable. Today's college education is also affected by this general sense of utilitarianism (功利主義) .Many college students choose business or computing programming as their majors,1 .
It is not unusual to see the college students taking a parttime job as a warmingup for the real battle. I often see my friends taking GRE tests,working on English or computer certificates and taking the driving lessons to get a license. Well,I have nothing against being practical. As the competition in the job market gets more and more intense,2 .
However,we should never forget that college education is much more than skill training. Just imagine,if students' utilitarianism prevails on campus,living no space for the cultivation of their minds,or nurturing of their soul,3 . If utilitarianism prevails in society,we will see people bound by mindforged manacles (手銬) lost in the moneymaking ventures;we will see humility losing their grace and dignity,and that would be disastrous.
I'd like to think society as a carriage and people pursue for profit or fame as a horse that pulls the carriage. Yet without the driver picking direction,4 . A certificate may give you some advantage,but broad horizons,positive attitudes and personal integrities are assets you cannot acquire through any quick fixed way.
In today's world,the highest level of competition is not of skills or expertise,but vision and strategy. 5
A. convinced that these professions are where the big money is
B. the students will go in the opposite way and be trapped in dilemma
C. We will find university is a place where competition is much more fierce.
D. we will see university is training out welltrained spiritless working machines
E. Your intellectual quality as well as personality traits largely determines how far you can go in your career
F. the carriage would go straight and may even end up in a dangerous situation
G. students do have reasons to be practical 1, 2. 3. 4. 5.

Trust has been considered as the basis of any relationship,including friendship. No relationship can last long with a lack of trust. Not many of your friends will have real faith in you as you would like to believe. 1 Sometimes,it takes years,even a complete lifetime,to trust someone. However,how do we know if our friends have faith in us?
2 With whom will you share things that you don't want everyone to know? It would be with a close friend,whom you trust as much as you trust yourself.
Whom do you look up to for advice when you need it the most? It has to be either your parents or your friends. 3 This is a shining example of trust. You only seek advice from people you hold in high regard and find dependable. The friends who trust you will never forget to include you in the important decisions of their life.
Arguments and heated discussions are a part of every relationship,and this is also true for friendship. 4 While some people find it difficult to forgive and forget,your friends will never have problems moving on. It is because they trust you and believe that you will never cause any pain to them on purpose.
There are times in life when you find yourself a lonely soldier. 5 Your friends will never let you down and will strongly stand for you when you need encouragement. You can determine that they trust you and believe in your beliefs,if they side with you when you need them the most.
A. People can be extraordinarily jealous sometimes.
B. You know they will never pass on a wrong suggestion.
C. In fact,winning trust is,by far,the most challenging aspect of relationships.

C ★★★★☆
Deep in a research lab in New Jersey,16-year-old Alon Millet carefully presses out tiny drops of a special solution(溶液) onto rows of bean(綠豆) he has raised from seed. It's a task he,s patiently performed for nearly three years. He is trying to help in the fight against world hunger.
The US Agency for Inteb iational Development (USAID) — an organization that works to end poverty (貧窮) 一thinks Alon may be onto something very big. The teenager was one of four students to get a US $10,000 award from the agency last year — chosen from among 1,700 secondary schools in more than 70 countries.
Courtney Mason,the program manager for the US Global Development Lab,called Alon’s work the“most promising” among hundreds of projects the agency has reviewed at science competitions across America. “Alon’s seed breeding(培植) will probably change the way plants are grovel in the developing world,making them survive drought and natural disasters,” Mason said.
Alon has some of the usual interests of a teenager,like playing video games,but he also loves to read scientific research papers. One day more than three years ago,Alon was reading about research with his father by an Israeli company that had used a certain solution to make trees grow larger. And that,in turn,helped to produce more paper with fewer trees.
“So I started thinking, ‘What else could this be used for?’ ”Alon said.
He chose the mung bean,which is a main food in the developing world,and got in touch with the company,FuturaGene,who agreed to share some of the solution. He started experimenting. Could he make the beans grow larger and survive bad weather conditions? After two years of measuring,testing and examining,he proved that he could. Now He’s on his 26th experiment with his mung beans.
9. What's the purpose of Alon’s experiments?
A. To write a scientific paper.
B. To help solve the problem of world hunger.
C. To enter a science competition.
D. To win an award from USAID.
10. What is Courtney Mason's attitude toward Alon’ s work?
A. He thinks it useless.
B. He thinks highly of it.
C. He is curious about it.
D. He is strongly against it.
11. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. Alon’s unusual hobbies.
B. The influence of Alon’s father on him.
C. How Alon’s research was performed.
D. What inspired Alon to do his research.
12. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Hungry for answers
B. Mung beans in the lab
C. Alon’ s 26th experiment
D. The seriousness of poverty
