2.Text2With the extension of democratic rights in the first half of the nineteenth century and the ensuing decline of the Federalist establishment, a new conception of education began to emerge.Education was no longer a confirmation of a preexisting status, but an instrument in the acquisition of higher status.For a new generation of upwardly mobile students, the goal of education was not to prepare them to live comfortably in the world into which they had been born, but to teach them new virtues and skills that would propel them into a different and better world.Education became training; and the student was no longer the gentlemaninwaiting, but the journeyman apprentice for upward mobility.In the nineteenth century a college education began to be seen as a way to get ahead in the world.The founding of the landgrant colleges opened the doors of higher education to poor but aspiring boys from nonAngloSaxon, workingclass and lowermiddleclass backgrounds.The myth of the poor boy who worked his way through college to success drew millions of poor boys to the new campuses.And with this shift, education became more vocational: its object was the acquisition of practical skills and useful information.For the gentlemaninwaiting, virtue consisted above all in grace and style, in doing well what was appropriate to his position; education was merely a way of acquiring polish.And vice was manifested in gracelessness, awkwardness, in behaving inappropriately, discourteously, or ostentatiously.For the apprentice, however, virtue was evidenced in success through hard work.The requisite qualities of character were not grace or style, but drive, determination, and a sharp eye for opportunity.While casual liberality and even prodigality characterized the gentleman, frugality, thrift, and selfcontrol came to distinguish the new apprentice.And while the gentleman did not aspire to a higher station because his station was already high, the apprentice was continually becoming, striving, struggling upward.Failure for the apprentice meant standing still, not rising.第26题:Which of the following is true according to the first paragraph?[A] Democratic ideas started with education.[B] Federalists were opposed to education.[C] New education helped confirm people’s social status.[D] Old education had been in tune with hierarchical society.

    Text 2

    You' re busy filling out the application form. for a position you really need; let' s assume you once actually completed a couple of years of college work or even that you completed your degree.

    Isn't it tempting to lie just a little, to claim on the form. that your diploma represents a Harvard degree? Or that you finished an extra couple of years back at State University? More and more people are turning to utter deception like this to land their job or to move ahead in their careers, for personnel officers, like most Americans, value degrees from famous schools. A job applicant may have a good education anyway, but he or she assumes that chances of being hired are better with a diploma from a well - known university. Registrars at most well - known colleges say they deal with deceitful claims like these at the rate of about one per week.

    Personnel officers do check up on degrees listed on application forms, then, if it turns out that an applicant is lying, most colleges are reluctant to accuse the applicant directly. One Ivy League school calls them "impostors"; another refers to them as "special cases" one well -known West Coast school, in perhaps the most delicate phrase of all, says that these claims are made by "no such people."

    To avoid outright lies, some job -seekers claim that they "attended" or "were associated with" a college or university. After carefully checking, a personnel officer may discover that "attending" means being dismissed after one semester. It may be that "being associated with" a college means that the job seeker visited his younger brother for a football weekend. One school that keeps records of false claims says that the practice dates back at least to the turn of the century—that' s when they began keeping records, anyhow.

    If you don' t want to lie or even stretch the truth, there are companies that will sell you a phony diploma. One company, with offices in New York and on the West Coast, will put your name on a diploma from any number of nonexistent colleges. The price begins at around twenty dollars for a diploma from "Smoot State University." The prices increase rapidly for a degree from the "University of Purdue." As there is no Smoot State and the real school in Indiana is properly called Purdue University, the prices seem rather high for one sheet of paper.

    26. The main idea of this passage is that ______.

    A) employers are checking more closely on applicants now

    B) lying about college degrees has become a widespread problem

    C) college degrees can now be purchased easily

    D) employers are no longer interested in college degrees


    正确答案:B

    How was your college education funded?


    正确答案:
               

  • 第3题:

    About 35%of all high school graduates in America continue their education in an institution of higher learning.The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university.These institutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts(B.A.)or Bachelor Science(B.S.)degree.Some students attend a junior college(providing only a two-year program)for one to two years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore(二年级生)or junior(三年级生).
    It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one.Most private schools require strict entrance examinations and a high grade point average(GPA),as well as specific college prep classes in high school.Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous private schools are very expensive.Poorer students can sometimes attend,however,by earning scholarships.Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters or doctoral degrees in grad(graduate)school.Occupations in certain fields such as law or medicine require such advanced studies.
    Since college costs are very high,most students work at part-time jobs.Some have full-time jobs and go to school part-time.Often some will take five or more years to complete a four-year program because of money/job demands on their time.
    While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student’s time,most still enjoy social activities.Sports,dances,clubs,movies,and plays are all very popular.However,gathering together for long,philosophical talks at a favorite meeting place on or near the university is probably the most popular activity.
    College education is_______in America.

    A.quite common
    B.very rare
    C.something difficult
    D.almost impossible

    问答题
    Cambridge University  When we say that Cambridge is a university town, we do not mean just that it is a town with a university in it. Manchester and Milan have universities, but we do not call them university towns. A university town—like Uppsala, Salamanca or Heidelberg—is one where there is no clear separation between the university buildings and the rest of the city. The university is not just one part of the town; it is all over the town. The heart of Cambridge has its shops, pubs, marketplace and so on, but most of it is university—-colleges, faculties, libraries, clubs and other places for university staff and students. Students fill the shops, cafés, banks, and churches, making these as well part, of the university.  The town was there first. Two Roman roads crossed there, and there are signs of building before Roman times (earlier than A.D.43). Trouble in Oxford I 1209 caused some students and their teachers to move. Cambridge became a centre of learning, and the authority of the head of the university, the chancellor, was recognized by the king in 1226.  At that time many of the students were very young (about fifteen), and many of the teachers were not more than twenty-one. At first they found lodgings where they could, but this led to trouble between town and gown and many students were too poor to afford lodgings. Colleges were opened so that students could live cheaply. This was the beginning of the college system which has continued at Cambridge up to the present day.  The colleges were built with money from king, queens, religious houses, or other sources. One example is Clare College. It was first founded in 1326 as University Hall. After the Black Death ( a disease which killed nearly half the population of England between 1349 and 1350) it was founded with money from the Countess of Clare. In providing it, the Countess stated that the college was to be for the education of priests and scholars. Today there are nearly thirty Colleges. The answer are University College, founded in 1965, and Clare Hall, founded in 1966, both for graduates. Very few students can now live in college for the whole of their course; the numbers are too great.  Many of them live in lodgings—digs—at first and move into college for their final year. But every student is a member of his college from the beginning. While he is in digs he must eat a number of meals in the college hall each week. His social and sports life centers on the college, although he will also join various university societies and clubs. To make this clearer, take the imaginary case of John Smith.  He is an undergraduate at Queen’s College. His room is on E staircase, not far from his tutor’s rooms on C staircase. He has dinner in the fine old college hall four times a week. He plays rugger for Queen’s and hopes to be chosen to play for the university this year. His other favorite sport is boxing, and he is a member of the university club. He is reading history, and goes once a week to Emmanuel College to see his supervisor to discuss his work and his lecturers. He belongs to several university societies—the Union, the Historical Society, a photographic club, and so on—and to a member of college societies. With about 8,250 undergraduates like John Smith and over 2,000 postgraduates, the city is a busy place in full term. Undergraduates are not allowed to keep cars in Cambridge, so nearly all of them use bicycles. Don’t try to drive through Cambridge during the five minutes between lectures. On Monday John Smith has a lecture in Downing College ending at 9:55 and another in Trinity at 10. His bicycle must get him there through a boiling sea of other bicycles hurrying in all directions.

    剑桥大学 当我们说剑桥是一座大学城的时候,并不是指这个城镇里有所大学。曼彻斯特和米兰也都有大学,但我们不说它们是大学城。当大学的建筑与城镇中的其他建筑融合在一起,没有明显分界时,这样的城镇才叫做大学城,乌普萨拉、科姆巴拉、塞拉曼卡和海德堡皆是如此。在大学城里,大学不仅是城镇的一部分,而是遍及城镇的每个角落。剑桥的城镇中心也有很多商店、酒吧和市场等其他场所,但是更多的是学院、科系、图书馆、俱乐部以及其他为教职工和学生服务的设施。学生们在这些商店、咖啡馆、银行和教堂之间出入,使得这些地方也成为大学的一部分。
    先有了剑桥城,而后才有剑桥大学。城里有两条罗马式大道从中贯穿,种种建筑迹象表明,早在罗马时代(公元43年以前),这里就有人类居住。l209年“牛津风波”后,许多学生和教师纷纷离开牛津大学来到这里,剑桥便成为学术中心。1226年,英国国王认可了剑桥校长的官方身份。
    当时的很多学生都年纪甚小,大概15岁左右,教师也大多不超过21岁。起初,他们自己解决住宿问题,但随后就导致了“居民与师生”之间的冲突,许多穷学生都付不起住宿的费用。学院开放后,学生们才有了便宜的住所。这也成为大学住宿体制的开端,自剑桥开始一直延续至今。
    创建各类学院的资金分别是由国王、王后和教会提供的。当然也有其他的来源,比如克莱尔学院。它始建于1326年,当时是大学的礼堂。在黑死病(1349年至l350年间爆发的一种疾病,将近一半的英国人死于此病)爆发之后,克莱尔伯爵夫人出资对其进行了重新修建。当时,伯爵夫人提出该学院要以牧师和学者为培养对象,并以此为赞助的条件。如今,剑桥大学共有将近三十所学院,其中最新的学院当属建于1965年的大学学院和1966年的克莱尔礼堂,它们都是为研究生而修建的。现在,因为学生人数太多,很少有学生能一直住在校内完成学业。
    入学之初,很多学生就住在校外宿舍,在最后一个学年才搬回校内居住。尽管如此,学生从一开始就是学院的一份子。哪怕是住在校外宿舍,他们每周也会在校内食堂吃几次饭。而且,他们的社交生活和体育锻炼也主要在校内进行,还会参加一些大学社团和俱乐部的活动。下面,我们假设有一名叫做约翰·史密斯的学生,以他为例来看一下学生们的大学生活。约翰·史密斯是皇家学院的一名本科生。他的宿舍在E楼,与住在c楼的导师相距不远。他每周会四次光顾历史悠久而且饭菜可口的学院餐厅。他是皇家学院橄榄球队的一员,今年还有希望入选校队参加比赛。拳击是他的另一个体育爱好,所以,他也是校拳击俱乐部的成员。约翰主修历史,每周在爱曼纽学院与他的导师碰面,商讨和研究课程方面的问题。除此之外,他还参加了几个大学社团,包括学生会、历史学社、摄影俱乐部等,同时还是学院社团的成员。这座有着8,250名与约翰·史密斯一样的本科生和2,000多名研究生的大学城终年是一个繁忙之地。因为不允许本科生开车,所有的本科生都以自行车为交通工具。在课间,你可别想能在五分钟内骑车穿越整个校园。约翰·史密斯有一节周一在冬林学院上的课,9:55结束。为了赶上10:00在三一学院的课,他必须骑车穿行于熙熙攘攘的车流当中。

    单选题
    A characteristic of American culture that has become almost a tradition is to respect the self-made man-the man who has risen to the top through his own efforts, usually beginning by working with his hands. While the leader in business or industry or the college professor occupies a higher social position and commands greater respect in the community than the common laborer or even the skilled factory worker, he may take pains to point out that his father started life in America as a farmer or laborer of some sort. This attitude toward manual (体力的) labor is now still seen in many aspects of American life. One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only comfortably but even luxuriously (豪华地)furnished and in which there is every evidence of the fact that the family has been able to afford foreign travel, expensive hobbies, and college education for the children; yet the hostess probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash dishes afterward, furthermore the dinner will not consist merely of something quickly and easily assembled from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie bought at the nearby bakery. On the contrary, the hostess usually takes pride in careful preparation of special dishes. A professional man may talk about washing the car, digging in his flowerbeds, painting the house. His wife may even help with these things, just as he often helps her with the dishwashing. The son who is away at college may wait on table and wash dishes for his living, or during the summer he may work with a construction gang on a highway in order to pay for his education.The expression "wait on table" in the second paragraph means "()".
    A

    work in a furniture shop

    B

    keep accounts for a bar

    C

    wait to lay the table

    D

    serve customers in a restaurant


    正确答案: C
    解析: [解析] 词义猜测题。wait on table意为“服务顾客”,注意其后的washing dishes也有一定的暗示意义,故答案为D。

    B

    C

    college education benefits only the intelligent, ambitious, and quick-learning people

    D

    intelligent people may learn quicker if they don’ t go to college


    正确答案: A

  • 第8题:

    问答题
    Some people believe that a college or university education should be available to all students. Others believe that higher education should be available only to good students. Which view do you agree with and why?

    正确答案:
    Most universities require the completion of a secondary, or high school education for admission. They also require proof of academic performance to guarantee that the student has the knowledge and skills needed to successfully complete their higher education. I believe that if a student has a poor academic record through their primary and secondary education,they should not be allowed to attend university.
    In the first place, a university education should be considered a privilege, not a right. A consistent effort must be made through the first two lower stages of a person’s education in order for them to earn the right to study in university. When I was in high school, I saw many students skip class regularly to shop, smoke drugs, or just because they “didn’t feel like” going to class. The obvious result was low grades. These students were all at least 17 or 18 years old, old enough to understand the value of their education. However, they did not value their secondary education and therefore,in my opinion, should not have the opportunity to study in university.
    In the second place, because education is cumulative, a student must work consistently through primary and secondary school to master facts and establish a foundation of knowledge in order to meet the demanding academic requirements of university courses. In primary and secondary school, students have the opportunity to develop their writing skills and analytical abilities, both essential to learn to cope with the challenges of higher learning. For students without the appropriate skills,success is unlikely. One university I attended published statistics showing a 50% dropout rate for first year students; the main reason listed was that the students were unprepared for the rigor of university life.
    In the third place, the limited educational resources at present in China make it almost impossible to provide every student with a college or university education. This means that students have to fight for their admission to the colleges and universities. As long as the present competition for higher education goes, it is not realistic to talk about letting every student have higher education. Competition for a successful walk through the single—plank bridge of college entrance examination is the most fair way to determine that privilege to higher education in China.
    Many people take their education for granted. In my high school, most people only needed to make a little effort to maintain an A or B average, but there were still many people who weren’t willing to make any effort at all. I am sure that these people without proven track records should not, have the privilege of attending university’ especially when higher education resources are not abundant.
    解析:
    文章引文段作者用I believe that…明确表明了论点,即初等和中等教育阶段成绩差的学生不应被大学录取。正文部分作者从三方面论证自己的观点:高等教育应该是特权,而不是权利;上大学应该具有足够的知识积累;中国的现状不允许给每个人都提供高等教育。在论据方面用到了逻辑推理、举例、列数字等方法。文章结尾部分简洁明了,与首段形成了照应。

    Passage Four

    Students all over the world have to work for their education. A college education in the United States is

    expensive. The costs are so high that most families begin to save for their children's education when their children are babies. Even so, many young people cannot afford to pay the expenses of full-time college work. They do not have enough money to pay for school costs. Tuition for attending the university, books for classes, and living expenses are high. There are other expenses such as chemistry and biology lab fees and special student activity fees for such things as parking permits and football tic, kets. The cost of college education increases every year. However, classrooms are still crowded with students. Some American students have scholarships or other support, but many do not.

    Students from other countries have money problems to overcome, too. Because students in most international programs need to have a sponsor, they work hard to earn scholarships or special loans. International students understand the value of going to school in another country. They also know that it is difficult. Yet just as Americans choose to attend American universities in spite of the difficulty, however, it is usually possible for students from abroad to work on university campuses to pay for some of the costs of their education. Some people believe that students value their education more if they work for it.
