Nowadays many young people don’t want to go to college as it’s costly to receive education at college. So, is a college education worth the price? This is a question more Americans are asking as college costs continue rising while the job market remains weak.
Attending a four-year college in the United States can cost more than $40,000 a year. That information comes from the College Board, a private company. Many people with a college education are drowning in student debt. They have to borrow money to finance their education. Reading this, some people may think it’s really not worth it to spend so much money on college education. But is it really so?
A recent study suggests that a college education is worth it, at least in the United States. That information comes from the Hamilton Project at the Brookings Institution. The study found that someone with a four-year college education earns two times as much as a high school graduate over a lifetime. And for nearly all study programs, an individual with a four-year bachelor’s degree earns even more than someone with a two-year degree.
However, graduates of some college majors may find their situation disappointing. For example, a chemical engineer can expect to earn double the earnings of a social worker over a lifetime. On average, a finance graduate makes more than a nurse or medical aide, while a nurse makes more than an elementary school teacher. Generally, college majors that require skill in mathematics promise high lifetime earnings. Graduates in computer science, engineering, and physics have the highest wages. Majors that involve teaching children or counseling have the lowest pay. Actually, graduates with bachelor’s degrees in some fields earn even less than people with a two-year associate’s degree over a time. They include early childhood education, elementary education and social work.
Now what do you think of going to college? Perhaps you’ve concluded that generally people who go to college earn more than people who don’t receive a college education. And you can earn very good salaries if you choose a good major. Therefore, we can say that a college education is worth the price.
Actually, from my point of view, I think people should go to college. Earnings shouldn’t be the only factor to be considered. Receiving a college education has many other benefits. Considering all the benefits, we can see it’s worth it to go to college.
24. What is the topic of the text?
A. Should a college education be costly?
B. Is a college education worth the price?
C. Can people find good jobs after graduation?
D. Is a four-year degree better than a two- year degree?
25. Paragraph 2 shows that a college education is ____________.
A. tiring B. worthy C. important D. costly
26. On average, which of the following people earns the most?
A. A nurse. B. A social worker.
C. A finance graduate. D. An elementary school teacher.
27. We can conclude from Paragraph 4 that _______________.
A. some college majors shouldn’t exist
B. not all college graduates can find work
C. some college graduates can’t support themselves
D. not all college majors have a guarantee of good wages

Whether they are hunters or the hunted, these clever animals are all masters of disguise (伪装) who can fool even the most beady-eyed passers-by into believing they are not there. Some hide under lily pads, some hide into the bark of a tree while others slip into the snow, either to hide from a hungry predator (捕食性动物) or move silently towards an unwitting prey.
These animals, as some of the earth’s best masters of disguise, can hide from their predators. However, they can’t escape the sharp eyes of American photographer Art Wolfe, who has spent over 35 years working in the deserts of Africa, the rainforests of South America, the mountains of the United States and snow plains of Canada to capture wildlife.
The Seattle, WA photographer says that finding and filming these clever animals is a difficult process, one that often takes many hours. However, for him, it is definitely worth the time because of the thrill of capturing a creature that has managed to blend into its natural habitat so skillfully like none other.
His search has taken him to almost every continent in the world --- from the deserts of Africa to the rainforests of South America and even, the snow plains of Canada. Over the years he has snapped so many amazing photos that he has been able to showcase them in two books --- a children’s book entitled Hiding Out that was first published in 2003 and Vanishing Act, which first came to bookstores in 2005, both of which have been translated into several languages and been extremely popular all over the world.
Besides, he is not done yet. The 61-year-old man continues to unearth nature’s beauties under lily pads, hiding into tree trunks or stealthily awaiting their prey in the white snow! Would you have been able to spot any of them had you not known they were in the photographs?
28. Some animals fool predators by ___________.
A. moving silently to them B. pretending to be friends
C. disguising themselves D. changing things around
29. How old was Art Wolfe when he began to take photos of these animals?
A. 61 B. 35 C. 29 D. 26
30. How did Art Wolfe feel when finding and filming these clever animals?
A. Easy and interesting. B. Hard and excited.
C. Dangerous and enjoyable. D. Complicated and boring.
31. The underlined word “ unearth ” in the last paragraph means _______________.
A. bury something in the ground B. have a close look at something
C. find something and make it known D. leave the earth for another planet
D
We know smoking cigarettes kills. So, manufacturers made electronic cigarettes as a safer smoking choice --- safer than tobacco. E-cigarettes contain the drug nicotine like cigarettes. But they don’t use tobacco. And you don’t light them. They are powered by battery.
So, if e-cigarettes are so safe, why have poison control centers around the United States seen an increase in telephone calls about e-cigarette poisonings? The answer is children.
Most of the calls are from people worried about children who have played with the devices. In the period of one month this year, the United States Centers for Disease Control (the CDC) says 215 people called the Center with e-cigarette concerns. More than half of these calls were for children aged below five. The devices apparently had made them sick.
Tim McAfee, director of the CDC’s Office on Smoking and Health, says the problem is regulation (管控). The federal government doesn’t control e-cigarettes even though they contain liquid nicotine. Mr. McAfree adds that liquid nicotine is a well-known danger. He explains that nicotine poisoning happens when the substance gets into the skin, gets into the eyes or is swallowed. Even a small amount can make a person sick. Nicotine poisoning can cause stomach pain or a sense of imbalance. Headaches and seizures (疾病的突然发作) are also common signs of nicotine poisoning. And too much nicotine can kill a person.
Tim McAfee says e-cigarettes don’t create the level of risk to people that tobacco products do. He notes that almost 500,000 Americans die each year from cigarettes. “Cigarettes are the winner in that contest. And we don’t really know what’s going to happen with e-cigarettes,” he said.
E-cigarettes don’t contain hundreds of harmful chemicals that are found in real cigarettes. So e-cigarettes are considered a useful tool for adults trying to end their tobacco use or quit.
But McAfee worries that teenagers may think electronic cigarettes are harmless. They could become addicted or hooked on the nicotine and then start smoking real cigarettes. In other words, he fears that, for young people, fake e-cigarettes could be a “gateway” to the real thing.
32. What can we learn from Paragraph 1 about e-cigarettes?
A. They don’t contain nicotine.
B. They are much less expensive.
C. They are also made of tobacco.
D. They are devices with batteries.
33. The telephone calls received by the CDC complained about e-cigarettes’ _________.
A. safety issues B. influence on children
C. impact on environment D. harm on smokers’ families
34. Tim MaAfee proves his statement “liquid nicotine is a well-known danger” by _________.
A. giving examples B. listing its effects
C. analyzing its ingredients D. comparing it with solid nicotine
35. What does the underlined sentence “Cigarettes are the winner in that contest.” In Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Cigarettes cause more deaths than e-cigarettes.
B. Cigarettes contain more nicotine than e-cigarettes.
C. Cigarettes are smoked by more people than e-cigarettes.
D. Cigarettes are more popular with teenagers than e-cigarettes.

5 Tips for Helping Your Child Overcome Shyness
If you were a shy child yourself, then you would understand the fear, lack of trust, and isolation that affect your child. 36 It will have a bad effect on his or her friendships, the ability to have intimate relationships, success in work and overall satisfaction with life. By following the steps below, you can help your child effectively overcome shyness.
Become a trusted and responsive parent. If you are an adult who can be relied on to meet your child’s needs and a parent who is caring and responsive, then the sense of trust your child has in you will naturally extend to others. 37 Never make him or her feel bad about being shy or push him or her to engage socially with others.
Be a role model for healthy interactions with others. 38 Teach your child how to approach others by doing it with him. Get down at their level and play with them until you see that your child feels comfortable.
Never introduce your child as being shy. 39 Even if your child is shy, labeling him or her as a shy person will not help him or her overcome shyness. Encourage your child to accept shyness as a truth about himself or herself and help him or her step beyond it.
Let your child play with others in a person-to-person way. A shy child may do better with another child one-on-one than in groups. 40 Children who are shy are able to handle being with another child for a certain amount of time, which can help your child learn how to build relationships with people who are worthy of his or her trust.
A. Be aware of how your child feels and respond to it.
B. Shyness left uncontrolled can affect a child for life.
C. Always remember that your child learns by watching you.
D. Children who are labeled are likely to become their labels.
E. So regularly invite other kids to your house for a short time.
F. In fact, families hurt children much more often than strangers.
G. Show your children that learning new skills from a class is a good thing.

To study abroad is the amazing eye-opening experience, which I recommend it to you. Many partner universities all over the world have a lot of other exchange students whom are just as exciting as you to discover their new environment. It did take some time to get used to a new culture. You also have to get used to study in a different university, with different rules, different ways of teaching and different subjects.

We all want to grow up happily and healthily, and for this goal we must do several things.
Firstly, it is important to have a positive attitude to life. We all know life is filled with not only happiness but also hardship. A positive attitude can help us overcome difficulties and lead us to success. Secondly, we should work hard. We are young and at the age of learning so we should make full use of time to learn more language, which will lay a solid foundation for our future. Thirdly, I strongly suggest taking part in some sports activities, such as playing football, badminton, basketball and so on. Taking more exercise allows us to build a strong and healthy body.
If we can do these things, we will definitely grow up happily and healthily.
