It was light in all the rooms;  44  was well known to me,but   45 were all the people who were sobbing as if their hearts would   46 ? I was puzzled and frightened.

Around it were soldiers who were acting as   49 ; there were some people   50  pitifully. ‘‘Who is dead in the White House?” I asked.
“The president,” was the answer.
“It’s   51 !”I said to myself and was surprised. How did he die?”
“He was killed by an assassinator (暗杀者)!” was the answer.
  52  came a loud burst of crying from the crowd,which woke me from my dream. I slept   53 that night, and although it was  54  a dream I have been rather angry about it   55 .”

Bill Gates, the billionaire Microsoft chairman without a single earned university degree, is by his success raising new doubts about the worth of the business world’s favorite academic title: the MBA (Master of Business Administration).
The MBA, a 20th century product, always has borne the mark of lowly commerce and greed on the tree-lined campuses ruled by purer disciplines such as philosophy and literature.
But even with the recession(经济萎缩) apparently cutting down the hiring of business school graduates, about 79,000 people are expected to receive MBAs in 1993. This is nearly 16 times the number of business graduates in 1960.
“If you are going into the corporate world it is still a disadvantage not to have one,” said Donald Morrison, professor of marketing and management science. “But in the last five years or so, when someone says, ‘Should I attempt to get an MBA?’ the answer a lot more is: It depends.”
The success of Bill Gates and other non-MBAs, such as the late Sam Walton of Wal-Mart Stores Inc., has helped inspire self-conscious debates on business school campuses over the worth of a business degree and whether management skills can be taught.
The Harvard Business Review printed a lively, fictional exchange of letters to dramatize complaints about business degree holders. The article called MBA hires “extremely disappointing” and said “MBAs want to move up too fast, they don’t understand politics and people, and they aren’t able to function as part of a team until their third year. But by then, they’re out looking for other jobs.”
The problem, most participants in the debate acknowledge, is that the MBA has acquired an aura (光环) of future riches and power far beyond its actual importance and usefulness.
Business people who have hired or worked with MBAs say those with the degrees of ten know how to analyze systems but are not so skillful at motivating people. “They don’t get a lot of grounding in the people side of the business”, said James Shaffer, vice-president and principal of the Towers Perrin management consulting firm.
小题1:According to paragraph 2, what is the general attitude towards business on campuses ruled by purer disciplines?
A.Envious(嫉妒的).B.Realistic.
C.Scornful(蔑视的).D.Appreciative.
小题2:. It seems that the argument over the value of MBA degrees had been fueled mainly by ___.
A.the complaints from various employers
B.the success of many non-MBAs
C.the criticism from the scientists of purer disciplines
D.the poor performance of MBAs at work
小题3:. What is the major weakness of MBA holders according to the Harvard Business Review?
A.They are usually self-centered.
B.They are aggressive and greedy.
C.They keep complaining about their jobs.
D.They are not good at dealing with people.
小题4:. From the passage we know that most MBAs ________.
A.can climb the corporate ladder fairly quickly
B.quit their jobs once they are familiar with their workmates
C.receive salaries that do not match their professional training
D.cherish unrealistic expectations about their future
小题5: What is the passage mainly about?
A.Why there is an increased enrollment in MBA programs.
B.The necessity of reforming MBA programs in business schools.
C.Doubts about the worth of holding an MBA degree.
D.A debate held recently on university campuses.

Girls are born to imagine, particularly those at the age of seventeen or eighteen.   16 , I was one of them and sometimes I would go to extremes. That was exactly what happened several days ago, causing me great embarrassment.
I was waiting for my train home at the station when a boy   17  at my side. His beautifully-curved face, his fashionable clothing and everything else about him, was so  18  that I just couldn’t help gazing (注视) at him. What was more   19  was that, he was also stealing some   20  at me, which made me blush (脸红) to the ends of my ears! Still, I tried to be calm and   21  that nothing had happened.

To my pleasant surprise, my   26  came true this time, as the handsome guy was drawing

You know I will give it to you without   30 , and that is so unladylike!” I was still struggling and trembling when he   31  right in front of me. “Excuse me...” he said with a slight hesitation. His voice was so nice, but I wish I had not   32  it, for in the end, he said: “I am sorry, but could you please give me my   33  back? Yours is over there.” Oh, my God! Nothing could have been more   34  when I handed his bag back to him, as shame almost brought me to tears.
From that, I drew a big   35 : never imagine too much if someone gives you a few glances.

Alia Sabur, from Northport, N. Y., US, went to college at age 10. And four years later, Sabur became a bachelor of science in. Applied Mathematics summa cum laude(以最优等成绩)from Stony Brook University -- the youngest female in US history to do so.  Her education continued at Drexel University, where she earned a Master of Science and a Doctor of Philosophy (哲学博士) in Materials Science and Engineering.
With an unlimited future ahead of her, Sabur directed her first career choice to teaching. "I really enjoy teaching," she said. She was three days short of her 19th birthday in February, 2008, when she was hired to become a professor at Konkuk University in Seoul, Korea.  This distinction made her the youngest college professor in history, according to the Guinness' Book of Worm Records, beating the previous record held by Colin Maclaurin, a student of Isaac Newton, in 1717.
Although she doesn't start until next month, Sabur has taken up teaching math and physics courses at Southern University in New Orleans. Sabur is old enough to teach in the city, but not to join her fellow professors in a bar after work. In Korea, where the drinking age is 20, she might have more luck.  In traditional Korean culture, children are considered to be 1 year old-when they are born, and add a year to their age every New Year instead of their actual birthday, so in Korea Sabur is considered 20.
On top of her unprecedented (空前的) academic achievements, Sabur has a black belt in Tae Kwon Do (跆拳道黑带). She is also a talented clarinet (竖笛) player who has performed with musicians like Lang Lang and Smash Mouth. So is there anything Sabur can't do?
小题1:We can learn from the passage that Sabur is ________.
A.America's youngest bachelor of science
B.Drexel University's youngest student
C.the world'syoungest college professor
D.the world's youngest female teacher
小题2:When Sabur was hired as a professor, her actual age is ________.
A.fourteenB.eighteenC.nineteenD.twenty
小题3:What does the author mean by saying "she might have more luck" (in Paragraph 3)?
A.Sabur might be permitted to drink in a Korean bar.
B.Sabur would be allowed to attend parties in Korea.
C.Sabur is old enough to teach at Konkuk University.
D.Sabur is lucky to be hired by Konkuk University.
小题4:According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A.Alia Sabur is the youngest female doctor from Stony Brook University.
B.Colin Maclaurin has once been the youngest college professor in the world.
C.In Korea, Alia Sabur is not allowed to drink for she is still underage.

When most people turn 21, they spend too much time partying and having fun. But when Adele turned 21, she did something completely different.
After going through a tough breakup(分手), the British singer turned her pain into glory and recorded one of the most moving albums of the year.
The album, 21, which was released in January, has already hit the charts in 14 countries, according to the Billboard magazine.
It also noted that Adele made history as the first artist since the Beatles to have two top five singles and two top five albums in the charts at the same time (Adele’s first album, 19, was released in 2008. Each album is named for her age when she wrote it).
Now, after touring around the world for almost a year, the DVD of her live concert, released on November 29, is Adele’s latest work.
Having topped the pre-order list of Amazon. com for over a month already, this one seems set to stay on top for a while.
Born in north London, Adele sang her way up honestly:  In 2006, she was signed by England’s XL Recordings on the strength of (基于)a three-song demo(样本唱片) a friend of hers had posted on MySpace;within two years she had won the BRIT Awards ‘Critics’ Choice prize and been tipped by the BBC as the “Sound of 2008”.
In 2009 she got the best new artist Grammy Award, and went on a world tour in support of the album 19 with a sold-out show in Los Angeles.
According to Adele herself, much of the inspiration of her music comes from one single breakup.
That’s probably what has made the singer’s success-that emotional certitude(确信), according to Dickins.
“The key to great singers is believing every single word they sing, ” he said. “And I think you believe every word that comes out of Adele’s mouth. You can feel her life force through her voice. ”
小题1:When she wrote album 19, she is at the age of______.
A.21B.18C.20D.19
小题2:How many awards did Adele get?
A.One.B.Two.C.Three.D.Four.
小题3:The underlined word “released” can be best replaced by ______.
A.recordedB.came out
C.soldD.written
小题4: In Adele’s opinion, where does her inspiration of music mainly come from?
A.Emotional certitude. B.One single breakup.
C.A three-song demo. D.A world tour.
