15、e should possess a perfect and wonderful love. ”Her parents asked to see him，then. The very worried Galaxy took Kazrim home a few days later. When they were on the train，Kazrim told her,“Im going to tell your parents that Ill be looking after you well with all my life!” Galaxy was deeply moved.As so

16、on as they had entered the house，Galaxy introduced him to her parents. She said,“This is Kazrim. ”Just right after her speech，an unbelievable thing happened. Kazrim threw the gift away and held her in his arms tightly.He said. “YOU CAN TALK?”It was the same question that Galaxy wanted to ask，too.The

20、the anger of Galaxys parents.22（8分）It is that time of the year again. Up and down the country, thousands of students stay in the library, attempting to cram（ 死記硬背） the information necessary to get through finals. I am one of them a Cambridge finalist, attempting to deal with the Oxbridge stress in t

21、he only way I know: caffeine hits and reclusion（隱遁生活）. Whether you love or hate Oxbridge, the fact that these two universities provide unique learning environments is something of a double-edged sword. On the one hand, students have access to some of the best education in the world; on the other han

22、d, the pressure that comes with this can prove damaging to them and cant be swept under the carpet for they have to face it eventually.Many Cambridge students find themselves trapped in a pressure of expectation, whether this comes from their supervisors or tutors, their director of studies or even

23、from themselves. The drive towards achievement is either the key to success or to possible serious personal issues, as Mark Phippen, head of the University of Cambridges Counseling Service said, “There are plenty of perfectionists in Cambridge, but it can work two ways: it can push them to accomplis

24、h and to achieve, or it can get out of hand, disabling them.”Many students say that they cant handle it any more while working in certain libraries which are filled with other students hard at work. The competition and paranoia（ 多 疑 ） are more common than what we realize or question: you can feel as

25、 if you are being judged for how much time you spend on Facebook or YouTube, or how little time you spend reading.Too many students feel almost frustrated by the pressure to achieve but feel unable to speak about it. As everyone seems to be coping, they must also pretend to cope too. The only thing

26、students have: tutors and supervisors regularly encourage students to avoid extracurricular activities, urging them to focus on their studies to such an extent that many find it hard to handle it. One current Cambridge tutor has been known for checking up on the activities of students involved in ex

27、tracurricular theatre by searching for them on the website, which details who is involved in certain plays each term just in case it affects the students work output.Problems arise when the pressure produces mental health issues. Problems have been brought to attention in articles primarily from Oxf

28、ords Cherwell and Cambridges The Tab. The attention has made the Cambridge University Student Union set up Students Deserve Better a campaign to handle complaints about supervisors and tutors lacking the ability to provide proper spiritual support. “When I told my supervisor about my problems with a

29、nxiety and therefore about my worries surrounding the workload she was suggesting, she said that I would probably feel less anxious once the work was done,” a finalist student called Jane said. “It shouldnt be an accepted response in one of the worlds best universities. Their responses only worsened

30、 any feelings I had concerning my final year.”P(pán)hippen said, “At this point the exams seem like the most important thing in the world. However, two years down the line youll realize that the exams you did at university arent very important at all, as what then becomes more important is what you have

31、done within those two years afterwards. Finalist exams can become depressing for students studying at any university. All you must remember is that you are not alone and you are good enough, and that a few years down the line, your ability to recount the plots of Euripides nineteen plays will no lon

So why worry?”1、The underlined part “be swept under the carpet” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “ ”.Abe covered up Bbe dealt withCbe given up Dbe figured out2、Whats Mark Phippens attitude towards the pressure put on the students at Oxbridge?ACritical. BDoubtful.CObjective. DAmbig

34、 can handle it.4、What Jane said in Paragraph 5 suggests that she .Adidnt get her problems across to her supervisorBhad expected better spiritual guidance from her tutorsCwas dissatisfied with her supervisors delayed responsesDwas glad that Students Deserve Better was set up to help students like her

35、5、In the last paragraph, Mark Phippen aims to.Aguarantee the equality of examsBstress the importance of examsCease students pressure from examsDencourage students to perform better in exams6、Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?AOxbridge pressure: the key to students achie

Recess(休息) was in full swing. She remained awkward around her classmates. She seemed unsure of what to do or say

46、, yet I could see her eyes longing for acceptance. Many students had already decided that her friendship would not be worth the energy required to overcome the awkwardness. Others teased her. Most ignored her except for one.Brianna, the class clown, was making the other students laugh, as usual. “Br

47、ianna, do you see Molly down there? Would you mind walking down there and inviting her to come up here with the rest of us?”Brianna sighed. I could tell she didnt want to sacrifice precious minutes of her own recess to do what I was asking of her, but I also knew her heart. She often thought of othe

Though bribery(行賄) was not the ideal way to handle this situation, I needed her cooperation.“Here, Ill pay you for your time.”She offered an insincere smile

49、, grasped the green paper, and headed down the hill.As the rest of the children screamed and laughed, my eyes locked on Brianna as she neared the picnic table. Molly could be difficult, and I wouldnt have been surprised if she sent Brianna back alone, refusing her invitation. When she encouraged her

50、self to a standing position, I sighed with relief.A minute later, 1 felt tap on my shoulder. “Here, Mrs. D” She handed me the D-buck.“ Why?” I asked.“I shouldnt keep this.” Her eyes fell to her feet, guilt radiating from her quiet voice. “I dont want Molly to think 1 only went to get her so I could

Quiet carriages on trains are a nice idea: travelers voluntarily make their ph

54、ones silent, turn stereos off and keep chatter to a minimum. However, in reality, there is usually at least one silly babbler(喋喋不休的人) to break the silence.A couple of problems prevent peaceful trips. First, there is a sorting problem: some passengers end up in the quiet carriage by accident and are

55、not aware of the rules. Second, there is a commitment problem: noise is sometimes made by travelers who choose the quiet carriage but find an important call hard to ignore.The train operators are trying to find answers. Trains in Queensland Australia, are having permanent signs added to show exactly

56、 what is expected; a British operator has invested in some technology to prevent phone calls.Microeconomics suggests another approach. Fining people for making a noise would surely dissuade(勸阻) the polluter and is a neat solution in theory, but it requires costly monitoring and enforcement. Another

57、way would be to use prices to separate quiet and noisy passengersin effect, creating a market for silence. A simple idea would be to sell access to the quiet carriage as an optional extra when the ticket is bought. Making the quiet coach both an active choice and a costly one would dissuade many of

58、those who dont value a peaceful ride.Charging may also solve the commitment problem. This is particularly tricky, as attitudes to noise can change during the journey. Some passengers would pay the quiet premium but still chatter away when some vital news arrives. Schemes that reward the silenta rati

59、ng system among fellow passengers, for examplecould help. The idea is that losing your hard-won reputation offsets the short-term gain from using the phone. But such a system also fails the simplicity test.A 2010 book by George Akerlof and Rachel Kranton argues that “norms”feelings about how everyon

60、e should behavealso play a role in decision-making. Charging a price, even if just a token amount, means the quiet carriage becomes a service that fellow passengers have bought, not just a preference they have expressed. Perhaps different norms would come into play, encouraging calm. If not, a perso
