212913. （2024•周至四中•高二下期中） In today's difficult economic time，it's natural to rethink your goal of studying abroad．Does the benefit outweigh the cost？The answer，in fact，is yes，when you look at the road ahead．
   When the economy becomes more challenged，competition for the workforce increases，and employers look for employees with the best credentials（资力）．Having an overseas degree - from a university where strong English skills are required - can make all the difference．The added expertise of a foreign degree，along with more cultural experience，can make you more qualified for many jobs．
   A 50-year study of 3，400 studentows that studying abroad is usually a defining moment in a young person's life and continues to impact the participant's life for years after the experience．
   82% said that they acquired skills that influenced their career path．70% stated that it ignited（点燃）an interest in a career direction that they pursued after the experience．
   And the effect on one's career can be equally strong．A study by the Queensland，Australia government showed：
   61% of employers stated overseas studying experience was positive on a graduate resume．72% of employers felt that a second language made a graduate a more attractive employee．
   Still，there's the question of how to pay for studying overseas．But the cost doesn't have to be as high as you think．Scholarships may be available to cover some or all of these costs．And，there are plenty of ways to further offset（抵消）the cost - through financial tips，advice and grants（补助金）．

（1）The second study shows that studying abroad       ．
A．helps one to get a job
B．affects one's whole life
C．affects one's career direction
D．helps one to make more money
（2）The author tries to prove his idea by       ．
A．giving examples
B．answering questions
C．listing facts and numbers
D．offering advice and solutions
（3）What does the author think about the university fees？
A．Financial tips must increase the university fees．
B．Scholarships can cover some of the costs．
C．Money is a serious problem for studying abroad．
D．There are few ways for the students to earn money．
（4）What does the author intend to tell us in the passage？
A．Studying abroad is easy．
B．Studying abroad is rewarding．

202805. （2020•西安中学•三模） We often hear such statements： "I spilled （洒出） juice，but it wasn't my fault．"， "I got in trouble at school，but it wasn't my fault．" or "I was in a car accident，but it wasn't my fault．" That "It's not my fault．" is a go-to response for so many people and especially teenagers．
   Parents complain they are tired of the "excuse"．The reason why variations of "It's not my fault．" are so popular is that it lets us off the hook from guilt and blame．I'm a fan of not owning responsibility for things that I can't control．Teens who often say "It's my fault．" when something bad happens tend to be highly self-critical，perfectionistic and more easier to be troubled by anxiety and depression．
   While it is important to recognize lack of reason to blame oneself，many teens over-rely on "It's not my fault．" When trying to get them to take responsibility，parents usually attempt to convince their teens that something is their fault．The approach tends to be ineffective and turn into a power struggle．No one wins．A more effective approach can be to stress significant drawbacks to consistently focusing on removing our responsibility with this phrase．
   Overuse of the phrase can result in feelings of lack of ability to control their own lives．This sense has been shown to cause low motivation．Besides creating feelings of lack of ability，overuse of "It's not my fault．" focuses a teen's attention on what is done as opposed to what needs to be done．
   People may not have caused all their problems but they have to solve them anyway．The example I frequently share with teens is the question of what one will do if he is pushed into a deep lake．One can certainly stay in water，yelling， "It's not my fault．" However，that won't get him out of water．He needs to swim to the shore，regardless of the fault．
   If you take a proper approach to communicating with your teens，you can help them avoid over-reliance on "It's not my fault．"

（1）What phenomenon is described in Paragraph 1？
A．The teenagers' dislike for school life．
B．The common trouble faced by teenagers．
C．The reasons for blaming others for accidents．
D．The tendency for people not to be responsible for mess in life．
（2）What type of teens tends to suffer great mental pressure according to the text？
A．Those lacking confidence and ambition．
B．Those allowing others to find excuses．
C．Those unable to get along well with others．
D．Those often blaming themselves for some incidents．
（3）What's the author's attitude to parents' usual way of guiding children？
A．Supportive．
B．Negative．
C．Ambiguous．
D．Neutral．
（4）What lesson is conveyed in the example often shared by the author？
A．We should try to avoid troubling others．
B．We should focus on how to solve problems．
C．We should dare to point out others' mistakes．
D．We should be self-critical as much as possible．

204810. （2022•周至四中•高二下期末） You've heard that plastic is polluting the ocean—between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year.But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference？Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does.He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage，forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.
   At the beginning of the year，the artist built a piece called "Strawpocalypse，" a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves，frozen mid-crash.Made of 168，000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups，the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City，Vietnam.
   Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled.Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source（来源）of plastic pollution，but they've recently come under fire because most people don't need them to drink with and，because of their small size and weight，they cannot be recycled.Every straw that's part of Von Wong's artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes.Once the drink is gone，the straw will take centuries to disappear.
   In a piece from 2018，Von Wong wanted to illustrate（说明）a specific statistic：Every 60 seconds，a truckload's worth of plastic enters the ocean.For this work，titled "Truckload of Plastic，" Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10，000 pieces of plastic，which were then tied together to look like they'd been dumped（倾倒） from a truck all at once.
   Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.

（1）What are Von Wong's artworks intended for？
A．Beautifying the city he lives in.
B．Introducing eco-friendly products.
C．Drawing public attention to plastic waste.
D．Reducing garbage on the beach.
（2）Why does the author discuss plastic straws in paragraph 3？
A．To show the difficulty of their recycling.
B．To explain why they are useful.
C．To voice his views on modern art.
D．To find a substitute for them.
（3）What effect would "Truckload of Plastic" have on viewers？
A．Calming.
B．Disturbing.
C．Refreshing.
D．Challenging.
（4）Which of the following can be the best title for the text？
A．Artists' Opinions on Plastic Safety

205369. （2020•西安中学•高一上期末） If a stranger offered you money to keep a suitcase in your spare room，would you accept？How about the other way round：if you had too many belongings，would you consider trusting someone you met online with their safekeeping？Anthony Paine believed enough of us would answer "yes" to these questions to launch his own startup （新兴公司），Stashbee．His business links people with space to those who need it．
   And it's just one player in the booming "sharing economy"，an industry that relies on people renting out things like their beds，bikes and even parking spaces．Airbnb，a company valued at 200 bn RMB，provides a platform for those renting property short-term．DogVacay pairs holiday making pet owners with pet-friendly hosts，and aims to be profitable by 2017．
   All their business models revolve around one simple word：trust．So，how does Stashbee measure up？BBC journalist Dougal Shaw decided to try it out for himself．He had some odds and ends to store while renovating his house，and met a host through the site who could keep them for 475 RMB for two months．All relatively smooth and painless．
   Heavyweights （行业巨头） in the traditional storage industry，such as Big Yenow and Access，aren't convinced．A representative from Access told Shaw he was skeptical about storing with "amateurs"．He considered 24/7（全天候） access to the items and better security as the main advantages of his service．
   Stashbee agree that dealing with security concerns is important，but say business success depends more on people overcoming a distrust of strangers we've been taught since childhood．They aren't alone．Companies such as Costockage，Roost and Spacer all run similar storage businesses，and are all relying on a shift in consumer attitudes．
   And the concept of social storage doesn't stop there．CityStasher believe there's a gap in the market for those who want to store things for extremely short periods of time．
   Would you try it out？It's a question of trust．

（1）The author put forward two questions at the beginning of the text to        ．
A．expect readers to answer them
B．carry out a survey among readers
C．start a conversation among readers
D．draw readers attention to the topic
（2）How does Dougal Shaw try out Stashbee's business？
A．Experiencing in person．
B．Doing a survey online．
C．Analyzing some data．
D．Exchanging his belongings．
（3）What does the traditional storage industry value most？
A．Trust．
B．Security．
C．Cost．

202730. （2020•西安中学•六模） Online programs to fight depression are already commercially available．While they sound efficient and cost-saving，a recent study reports that they are not effective，primarily because depressed patients are not likely to engage with them or stick with them．
   The study looked at computer-assisted cognitive behavioral therapy （CBT） and found that it was no more effective in treating depression than the usual care patients receive from a primary care doctor．
   Traditional CBT is considered an effective form of talk therapy for depression，helping people challenge negative thoughts and change the way they think in order to change their mood and behaviors．However，online CBT programs have been gaining popularity，with the attraction of providing low-cost help wherever someone has access to a computer．
   A team of researchers from the University of York conducted a randomized control trial with 691 depressed patients from 83 physician practices across England．The patients were split into three groups：one group received only usual care from a physician while the other two groups received usual care I from a physician plus one of two computerized CBT programs．Participants were balanced across the three groups for age，sex，educational background，severity and duration of depression，and use of antidepressants．
   After four months，the patients using the computerized CBT programs had no improvement in depression levels over the patients who were only getting usual care from their doctors．
   "It's an important，cautionary note that we shouldn't get too carried away with the idea that a computer system can replace doctors and therapists，" says Christopher Dowrick，a professor of primary medical care at the University of Liverpool． "We do still need the human touch or the human interaction，particularly when people are depressed．"
   Being depressed can mean feeling "lost in your own small，negative，dark world，" Dowrick says．Having a person，instead of a computer，reach out to you is particularly important in combating that sense of isolation． "When you're emotionally vulnerable，you're even more in need of a caring human being，" he says．

（1）What does the recent study say about online CBT programs？
A．Patients may not be able to carry them through for effective cure．
B．Patients cannot engage with them without the use of a computer．
C．They can save patients trouble visiting physicians．
D．They have been well received by a lot of patients．
（2）What has made online CBT programs increasingly popular？
A．Their effectiveness in combating depression．
B．The low efficiency of traditional talk therapy．
C．Their easy and inexpensive access by patients．
D．The recommendation by primary care doctors．
（3）What is Professor Dowrick's advice concerning online CBT programs？
A．They should not be neglected in primary care．
B．Their effectivenesould not be overestimated．
C．They should be used by strictly following instructions．
D．Their use should be encouraged by doctors and therapists．
（4）What is more important to an emotionally vulnerable person？
A．A positive state of mind．
B．Appropriate medication．
C．Timely encouragement．
D．Human interaction．

205313. （2021•新城区•高一下期末） Major cities across the country，from Washington D.C.to Los Angeles，are heating up.The downtown parts of Phoenix can be up to 15 degrees warmer at night than its suburb（郊区）.During the day，the street can reach over 160 degrees，hot enough to cook an egg.Unsurprisingly，walking across such a hot street to get to work，school，and do your daily work takes its toll on your health.
   Local governments have turned to planting trees to help stop rising temperatures in city areas.These tree planting efforts are usually announced with much showing off but are not as simple as planting a few trees and calling it a day.There's typically this sort of blind faith that trees will provide all of wonderful social benefits.But the environmental benefits that trees provide depend entirely on context.Tree planting plans may not lead to the cooling joy we desire in city areas.
   While tees，theoretically，are a "green" solution to unbearable summer city weather，in practice，many problems arise，namely keeping track of just how many trees have already found their roots and convincing land owners to keep planting trees along their personal property（私产）.In some cases，cities are already doing a good enough job that they are running out of space，like in Washington，D.C.where they are currently at 38 percent canopy （树冠）coverage but are hoping to raise coverage up to 40 percent.But the biggest problem is that public area alone isn't enough for new trees in Washington D.C，as well as in cities like Phoenix and Los Angeles，and now，citizens will have to plant trees on personal property to help reach their canopy coverage goals.In many cases，that means landowners need to take care of those trees since they technically don't belong to the city itself.
   At the end of the day，trees are a good starting point，but we still have so much to learn about how well they work to cool down our hottest cities.

（1）What does the underlined word "toll" in paragraph 1 mean？
A．Cost.
B．Turn.
C．Time.
D．Place.
（2）What is the author's attitude to planting trees to cool cities？
A．Unconcerned.
B．Dissatisfied.
C．Supportive.
D．Confident.
（3）What is the biggest problem of planting trees in cities？
A．Skills of planting trees.
B．Space for planting trees.
C．The high canopy coverage.
D．The unsure tree ownership.
（4）What can be the best title for the text？
A．Heating Cities in the United States
B．A "Green" Solution to Climate Change
C．A Typical Blind Faith in Planting Trees
D．Problems of the Measure to Cool Hot Cities

205387. （2020•西安中学•高三上期末） Many Beijing residents go to great lengths to avoid breathing the city's smoggy air，especially when it reaches critical pollution levels，but one local entrepreneur decided that canning（灌装） and selling this poor quality air as a souvenir would be a great idea．Believe it or not，he was right．
   After seeing a number of companies achieve commercial success by canning fresh air from countries like France，Canada or Australia and selling it in China，Dominic Johnson-Hill，a British-born citizen of Beijing and owner of the Plastered 8 souvenir shop，decided to turn the idea on its head and sell canned Beijing air throughout China and abroad．
   "I'd seen people going crazy to buy canned air from Canada and Australia，so I thought it was time to push business the other way，" the entrepreneur said． "They're perfect gifts!What else are you going to take home when you go home from Beijing？A roast duck？A Plastered T-shirt？These cans are light，portable，you can just imagine someone' s face when they unwrap （打开） it for Christmas．"
   The few mouth-fulls of Beijing air come in standard tin cans featuring a couple of iconic city landmarks as well as a bitter description of the contents： "a unique mix of nitrogen，oxygen and some other stuff"．The ironic （讽刺的） souvenirs cost 28 RMB （US ＄4）and are available at the Plastered 8 shop，as well as on its online shop．But if you're actually considering buying some，you'd better ask shop in advance，as they are virtually flying off the shelves．Johnson-Hill said that hiop is selling hundreds of Beijing air cans every day．
   Personally，the well-sold can probably is an awakening for the public to be concerned about the living conditions．Yet one thing that' s not particularly clear is whether the air is really collected from Beijing，as the cans are labeled as "Made in Shenzhen"．There's a big chance that's just a kind of Plastered 8 humor，as they also list "Choking Hazard" and "May have unidentified objects inside．" as warnings．
   Anyway，it is probably a unique way to arouse public awareness of protecting the environment．

（1）What contributes to Dominic's idea of canning and selling the poor quality air？
A．Try to get used to it．
B．Sell it all over the world．
C．Can it as a souvenir．
D．Try to push business the other way．
（2）How may one feel when receiving canned Beijing air for Christmas？
A．Satisfied．
B．Surprised．
C．Frightened．
D．Refreshed．
（3）Which of the following can replace the underlined word "stuff" in Paragraph 4？
A．liquids
B．objects
C．minerals
D．risks
（4）What can we infer from the passage？
A．There are unidentified objects in the canned Beijing air．
B．The Plastered 8 souvenir shop is famous for its humour．
C．People should make efforts to protect the environment．
D．Dominic Johnson-Hill likes the poor quality air in Beijing．

205275. （2021•阎良区•高一上期末） A team of conservationists （环境保护主义者）captured 14 Loa water frogs earlier this month in northern Chile，a wildlife group reported.
   The International Union for Conservation of Nature （IUCN） lists the Loa water frog as "critically endangered".The not-for-profit Global Wildlife Conservation group said the 14 frogs were in poor condition when they were discovered in late June.The animals were small and struggling because of a lack of food and water.
   The Loa water frogs are known to live only in a single body of water near Calama，in Chile.The city sits in the middle of the Atacama Desert，where water is in great demand.
   There was little water in the area where the frogs were found，the conservation group reported.The frogs' environment had mostly dried up because water is being taken away and used for human activities，the group said.The activities include mining，agriculture and land development. "All of the frogs had been pushed into a tiny pool of muddy water，the organization said. "The team collected the last 14 individuals and brought them to the National Zoo of Chile to start a conservation breeding program."
   Zoo specialists are closely watching the small creatures and trying to give them everything they need to survive and be healthy.Conservation groups have called on Chile's government to take steps to halt any illegal water usage that threatens the frogs' natural environment.They would also like to see creation of a government-supported shelter to protect the animals.
   Jon Paul Rodriguez heads the IUCN's Species Survival Commission.He suggested that an emergency plan be developed to prepare the Calama area for the frogs' return.
   "We need to work very hard to restore their environment because it's pointless to breed them if they don't have a home to go back to in the wild，" Rodriguez said.

（1）What do we know about the frogs when they were rescued？
A．They were looking for food.
B．They were in good condition.
C．They were approaching death.
D．They were moving for new water source.
（2）What has made these frogs endangered？
A．Lack of water.
B．Water pollution.
C．Human hunting.
D．Extreme climate.

205227. （2021•长安区一中•高二上期末） Captured（捕获的）carbon dioxide（CO₂）could be used to extract（提炼）useful metals（金属）from recycled technology such as smartphone batteries rather than just being buried underground.The technique could help make it more economical to capture the greenhouse gas before it enters the atmosphere.
   "If you also extract metals by filling CO₂，you add value to a process that is known to be costly，" says Julien Leclaire at the University of Lyon，France.
   CO₂ is the main cause of modern climate change，so many people have attempted to develop technologies to capture it when it comes from power plants and other major sources.The gas can then be stored underground.The problem is that such carbon capture and storage（CCS）is expensive."No one wants to pay the price for it，" says Leclaire.
   To make CCS more appealing，Leclaire's team has found a use for the gas.
   His team collected CO₂ from a car gas，cooledit，then pumped it into a mix of chemicals.
   The CO₂combined with the mix to make many molecules（分子）of variouapes and sizes.
   The team found that this process could sort out mixtures of metals，because one metal would dissolve（溶解）in the liquid while another would form a solid.In a series of experiments，they successfully separated three kinds of metals-all of which are used in batteries，smart phones and computers.
   If the process can be widely used，it could be a more environmentally friendly way to recycle batteries and other electrical equipment，says Leclaire.This is normally done using highly reactive chemicals，which are potentially polluting.Replacing them with CO₂ should lead to a much lower environmental pollution，he says.
   Other researchers and companies are trying to change captured CO₂ into useful materials like plastics，which are normally produced from petrol，but this is chemically difficult.Leclaire says his approach is more inline with how CO₂ behaves naturally."Instead of copying what we know how to do better and cheaper with oil，let's find things you can only do with CO₂，" he says.

（1）What can we learn from the first paragraph？
A．Extracting useful metals from recycled technology is widely used now.
B．Useful metals in the atmosphere are used to make smart phone batteries.
C．Abandoned smart phone batteries may have been buried underground before.

206073. （2016•七十中•高二下期末） No one can change the weather．Nobody can control the weather．But if we read correctly the signs around us，we can tell what the more important changes in the weather will be．This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting．

205293. （2021•阎良区•高二下期末） There you are in your favorite clothing store.You don't really need to buy anything，but everything is so cheap and stylish!Before you know it，you leave the store with bags and bags of new clothes.
   On the surface，this doesn't seem so bad.However，there are a lot of hidden costs behind the cheap price tags（标牌）.To put it plainly，the fashion industry is terrible for the planet.Not only does it use up a lot of resources，but it also heavily pollutes the environment with chemicals，microplastics and unwanted waste.
   Fashion is one of the least sustainable industries on the planet，commented Michael Stanley-Jones."We've all become our own waste managers，hoarding fashion waste in our houses，" he noted.
   It doesn't just take up space in our cupboards，though.It also ends up in landfills（垃圾场），too.But，thankfully，the fashion trend tides are changing.People are increasingly examining their own consumption and what changes they can make to become sustainable，Jane Fellner，founder and CEO of sustainable fashion seller Loopsler，told the Guardian.
   In particular，with its typically lower prices and rare fashion finds，shopping secondhand has become an increasingly popular and eco-friendly option.According to online reseller ThredUp，the secondhand market is predicted to reach ＄ 80 billion by 2029.And，although fast fashion will continue to grow 20 percent over the next 10 years，secondhand fashion is expected to grow an unbelievable 185 percent in that same amount of time.Fellner continued： " Secondhand has become more socially acceptable.Thrifting （节约）is now massive on TikTok."
    The only true sustainable way to shop is to not shop at all，unless you're buying clothes that already exist.

202501. （2021•西安中学•一模） Free school meals are back in the news.Footballer Marcus Rashford's petition（请愿书） to extend free school meals provision （供给） into the school holidays has collected 1.1 million signatures，causing the government to reverse policy.It has restarted the debate over free school meals，fuelled，most recently，by figures forecasting that if the government ends as planned the current ￡20 top-up（附加款），another 200，000 children will slip into poverty.This is in addition to the 550，000 children already living in poverty previous to COVID-19.
   The roots of the current school meals system lie in the mid-19th century.In Manchester，independent charities as well as official bodies started to provide free meals for undernourished children in the 1870s.When education became compulsory in the following decades，the extent of the issue became apparent.Proponents of feeding starving children pointed out that it was due to government order that children were in school，not working and contributing to the family food budget，so the government should pay.
   Reception was mixed.Then，as now，children rejected foods they weren't used to.Diaries of the time talked of "little bags of mystery" （sausages）.Some children were put off brassicas （芥菜类） for life.Finding the balance between cheap and good proved hard.The chief medical officer talked about the lack in calorie value and elements of a well-balanced diet which a needy child does not get at home，such as milk，cheese，eggs，green vegetables，fruit and meat.In 1980，the Tory government，desperate to cut costs，made provision largely optional and abolished nutritional standards.Over the next 15 years convenience and cost became the most important.
   Today，school meals provision is linked to benefits：in England around 17 percent of children are entitled to free school meals.Provision is outsourced （外包），leading to huge variation.In the last year，we've seen all of the age-old debates repeated once more.How do we decide who is entitled？How do we guarantee quality？Who decides what children eat？Who pays？Undernutrition does not just have physical effects，but also affects behavior and ability to learn.It has a lifelong impact.The arguments around free school meals seem never to end.But they are hugely important and，until poverty is ended，they will not and should not go away.

（1）Why did Marcus Rashford start the petition？
A．To feed an increasing number of children in poverty.
B．To restart the debate over free school meals.
C．To raise fund for hunger relief for children.
D．To lift children out of poverty.
（2）What does the paragraph 2 probably talk about？
A．Manchester and independent charities set up school free meals.
B．It was government that should pay for the school meals.
C．How did the current school meals system come into existence？
D．It was compulsory education that contributed to free school meals.
（3）What can we infer about school meals from paragraph 3？
A．Some children liked brassicas provided in the school.
B．School meals were both tasty and cheap.
C．School meals failed to meet children's nutritional needs.
D．The Tory government chose nutrition over cost.
（4）What does the writer think of the debates over free school meals？
A．Never-ending.
B．Meaningless.
C．Influential.
D．Necessary.

206056. （2016•七十中•高一下期末） Silence means differently in different cultures．Silences may be thoughtful，or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say．A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness，or worry．Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable；therefore attempts may be made to fill every gap with conversation．Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person's needs．
Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people，just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do．Therefore，when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and suddenly stops，what maybe implied（暗示） is that the person wants the listener to consider what has been said before continuing．In these cultures，silence is a call for reflection．
Other cultures may use silence in other ways，particularly when dealing with conflicts among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power．For example，Russian，French，and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion．However，Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in authority rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her．In still another use，persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect，particularly to an elder or a person in authority．
Nurses and other care-givers need to be aware of the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal anxiety their patients may be experiencing．Nurseould recognize their own personal and cultural construction of silence so that a patient's silence is not interrupted too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily．A nurse who understands the healing（治愈） value of silence can use this understanding to assist in the care of patients from their own and from other cultures．
（1）What does the author say about silence in conversations？
A．It is culture-specific．
B．It promotes friendship．
C．It implies anger．
D．It is content-based．
（2）Which of the following people might regard silence as a call for careful thought？
A．The Mexicans．
B．The French．
C．The Chinese．
D．The Russians．
（3）What does the author advise nurses to do about silence？
A．Let it continue as the patient pleases．
B．Make use of its healing effects
C．Evaluate its harm to patients．
D．Break it while treating patients．
（4）What may be the best title for the text？
A．Sound and Silence
B．Speech Is Silver；Silence Is Gold
C．Silence to Native Americans
D．What It Means to Be Silent．

205980. （2016•西安一中•高二下期末） University-the best days of my life!I made lots of friends in my student dorm，went to great parties，joined the debating society…and，well，I did some work too-but I must admit my lecturers were very patient with my tardiness（拖拉）．
It's easy to look back at our university days through rose-tinted spectacles but the truth is that when we first arrived on campus，most of us were out of our comfort zone．
In fact，a survey of students at Imperial College London has revealed that 3 out of 4 students experience high levels of stress，or a mental health condition，during their time at college．The survey，completed by over a thousand students，also found that 70% of those that experience stress do so at least once a week，and 9% of students feel stressed constantly．
Kirsty，a student at Exeter University，didn't enjoy her first days in college．She says："When I first got to university I don't think I'd realized that I'd forgotten how to make friends．I'd been with the same school friends for seven years，and so I was trying to balance social success with academic success while learning how to look after myself at quite a young age．"
Dr Ruth Caleb of the counseling service at Brunel University in London has some tips that should make life easier for students before they set off for university．She says："Certain things that I think it would be very helpful for students to have put in place are an ability to do the practical things of life-to do the washing，to do the cleaning and so on-being able to cook．Budgeting is extremely important in university life．"And Caleb adds："You should learn how to spend time on your own comfortably．"
I graduated and learnt how to take care of myself the hard way．I hope that new students these days remember to acquire some life skills before they make the big jump．
（1）Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined part in Paragraph 2？
A．rose-shaped glasses
B．positive perspectives
C．negative sides

（2）What did Kirsty find most difficult to do during her first days in college？
A．Not knowing how to make new friends．
B．Not realizing the importance of making friends．

（3）Which of the following tips are helpful or important EXCEPT         according to Dr．Ruth Caleb？
A．having the ability to cook
B．being able to do the cleaning
C．learning how to spend money on one's own
D．balancing social success and academic success
D．Acquiring some life skills isn't that important to new students．

A．He quickly adapted to the new environment when he first arrived on campus．
B．He graduated from college with many achievements．
C．It might have taken him some time to get used to college life．
