Fees and Expenses (Academic Year 20xx — 20xx) Tuition (学费 ): $ 29, 910 Room and board: $ 8, 387 Other expenses (books, telephone, etc.): $ 3,083 Total: $ 41, 380 63. How many kinds of faculty members are there in Princeton University? A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four. 64. In Princeton University, an undergraduate will pay at least _______ for the Academic Year 20xx—20xx besides tuition. A. $ 41, 380. B. $ 52, 850. C. $ 11, 470. D. $ 8, 387. 65. In what way is Princeton University different from other American universities according to the text? A. It has five colleges B. Its students are mainly undergraduates C. It provides housing for all undergraduate students D. All the faculty members at Princeton are expected to teach and research. 66. Which of the following is NOT true? A. Princeton offers two kinds of undergraduate degrees B. An academic year lasts about nine months in Princeton University C. Undergraduates should spend their first two years in one of five colleges D. It’s about an hour’s train ride from Princeton University to the north of New York. D The 20xx London Olympics had enough problems to worry about. But one more has just been added a munications blackout caused by solar storms. After a period of calm within the Sun, scientists have detected the signs of a flesh cycle of sunspots that could peak in 20xx, just in time for the arrival of the Olympic torch in London. Now scientists believe that this peak could result in vast solar explosions that could throw billions of tons of charged matter towards the Earth, causing strong solar storms that could jam the telemunications satellites and interact links sending live Olympic broadcast from London. “The Sun39。 s activity has a strong influence on the Earth. The Olympics could be in the middle of the next solar maximum which could affect the functions of munications satellites,” said Professor Richard Harrison, head of space physics at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire. At the peak of the cycle, violent outbursts called coronal mass ejections (日冕物质抛射 ) occur in the Sun’s atmosphere, throwing out great quantities of electrically charged matter. “A coronal mass ejection can carry a billion tons of solar material into space at over a million kilometers per hour. Such events can expose astronauts to a deadly amount, can disable satellites, cause power failures on Earth and disturb munications,” Professor Harrison added. The risk is greatest during a solar maximum when there is the greatest number of sunspots. Next week in America, NASA is scheduled to launch a satellite for monitoring solar activity called the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), which will take images of the Sun that are 10 times clearer than the most advanced televisions available. The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory helped to make the hightech cameras that will capture images of the solar flares (太阳耀斑 ) and explosions as they occur. Professor Richard Holdaway, the lab39。 s director, said that the SDO should be able to provide early warning of a solar flare or explosion big enough to affect satellite munications on Earth If we have advance warning, we39。 ll be able to reduce the damage. What you don39。 t want is things switching off for a week with no idea of what39。 s caused the problem, he said. 67. The phrase munications blackout in paragraph 1 most probably refers to ________ during the 20xx Olympics. A. the extinguishing of the Olympic torch B. the destruction of weather satellites C. the transportation breakdown in London D. the collapse of broadcasting systems 68. What can be inferred about the solar activity described in the passage? A. The most fatal matter from the corona falls onto Earth. B. The number of sunspots declines after coronal mass ejections. C. It takes several seconds for the charged matter to reach Earth. D. The solar storm peak occurs in the middle of each cycle. 69. According to the passage, NASA will launch a satellite to ________. A. take images of the solar system B. provide early warning of thunderstorms C. keep track of solar activities D. improve the munications on Earth 70. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage? A. Solar Storms: An Invisible Killer B. Solar Storms: Human Activities to Be Troubled C. Solar Storms: Threatening the Human Race D. Solar Storms: Earth Environment in Danger. 第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 选项中有多余选项。 Our Fears Can Change the Reality of the Situation At times, our worries and anxieties can defeat us. In addition, our worries can change our understanding of what is reality and what is not. Here is a brief list of techniques that you can use to help gain a better viewpoint on things during your anxious moments. 71 A person should take a deep breath and try to find something to do for a few minutes to get their mind off the problem. A person could get some fresh air, listen to some music, or do an activity that will give them a fresh perspective on things. Remember that our fearful thoughts are made to seem worse and can make the problem worse. 72 When unexpectedly having thoughts that make you fearful or anxious, challenge those thoughts by asking yourself questions that will maintain objectivity and mon sense. Be smart in how you deal with your fears and anxieties. Do not try to deal with eve。
