【題目】 New Mexico has announced a plan to make public colleges and universities free for all people in the state, a Proposal considered one of the most ambitious attempts in education these years.
The plan, if approved, would allow students, regardless of household income, to attend any of the 29 states public colleges and universities. State officials estimate that the program, officially called the New Mexico Opportunity Scholarship, will help 55,000 students each year attend college.
Calling the plan “the moonshot for higher education,” New Mexico Gov. Michelle LujanGrisham announced it on Wednesday at the New Mexico Higher Education Summit in Albuquerque. “It means better enrollment (注冊). It means better students' success. In the long run, it means economic growth, improved outcomes for New Mexico workers and thinkers and parents,” Lujan Grisham said, “It means a better trained workforce.”
Twenty other states have set up tuition free education programs for two-year community colleges. And New York created a scholarship program to allow students to go to public colleges and universities without paying tuition. But there are household income requirements and other rules, including that receivers live and work in New York for several years after graduating. The New Mexico proposal has no such restrictions. And some experts wonder if the lack of program regulations is one of its disadvantages.
Wil Del Pilar, the vice president for higher education at The Education Trust, said there is a risk that wealthier students will benefit the most in the program, since there are no income requirements. “When you have limited state dollars, I would argue that we should target those dollars toward those who struggle the most to pay,” Del Pilar told NPR.
Like the New York s scholarship program, New Mexico's covers just tuition, not other living costs. To Del Pilar that is a problem. He said the promise of free college takes more than eliminating (取消) tuition. Paying for housing, meals, books and transportation are still challenges for many low-income students, he said.
【1】What's the purpose of the New Mexico plan?
A.To reform the system of education.
B.To improve the quality of education.
C.To attract more students around the world.
D.To make higher education more accessible.
【2】What was Lujan Grisham’s attitude towards the New Mexico plan?
A.A little doubtful.B.A little confused.
C.Full of curiosity.D.Full of confidence.
【3】Compared with the New Mexico plan, the New York program .
A.has fewer restrictionsB.benefits more students
C.has more requirementsD.covers more living costs
【4】What is the problem with the New Mexico plan according to Del Pilar?
A.It is limited to tuition.B.It doesn't include tuition.
C.It opens to all college students.D.It's only available to poor students.

【題目】 When my husband and I moved back to the United States years ago, we had been living an adventurous life on a boat overseas. We moved to Maine and fell in love with a piece of land. It came with a huge farmhouse much larger than we needed. We went rapidly from living in an extremely small space on the water with only two bags to a life on land as a family of four in a big house jammed with stuff.
How did we end up with so much stuff? We just didn't see things piling up so quickly. It's an embarrassment of riches. It's an overabundance. And it's burying us.
A couple of weeks ago, going through a pile of books I’d organized, I found my late mother's now-twenty-year-old copy of “Simplify Your Life" by Elaine St. James. I’d read it a number of times, adding my own penciled notes and folding down more pages.
Wondering if St. James wrote other books on the topic, I began an Internet search that led me deeper and deeper into simplicity, and a concept that was new to me, zero waste. I sensed that what was missing from our life, from our home, was emptiness. My house can't breathe, it's no wonder I feel like I can't either.
Now, my husband and I have undertaken an experiment that we hope will lead to a major lifestyle shift for our whole family. I first started to declutter and downsize by cleaning my kitchen. I emptied out my cupboards and drawers. I put everything needed on our dining-room table. Everything else went into a huge bin for sale. My drawers are beautiful now and I’m content to take this step.
Like any new beginning, there are hesitations. But in a few months, we will move into a new house less than half the size of the one we have. Can my two kids adjust to the idea of reducing their two separate rooms to one small shared bedroom with just a few toys? I can see I'm still thinking about what I will lose. But what I hope becomes clearer is what we will gain by letting go.
【1】How did the author feel about the life back to the United States?
A.She enjoyed the new spacious house.
B.She loved the abundance of materials.
C.She complained about owning too much.
D.She desired a much richer life.
【2】Why did the author mention Elaine St. James and her book?
A.To show what a great influence James had on her.
B.To advise more people to read James's book.
C.To indicate how her late mother liked reading.
D.To explain why a simple life counts to everyone.
【3】What does the underlined word “declutter" mean in Para 5?
A.recoverB.remove
C.prepareD.escape
【4】What is the author doing according to the last paragraph?
A.Persuading her kids to live simply.
B.Reflecting her hesitations about letting go.
C.Questioning her sudden change on life.
D.Missing her life on the boat.

【題目】Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.
Last year, a report by a committee of education experts said that a lot of American students cannot write well. The report noted the concerns of business leaders and teachers. The experts said that more students should have to pass a writing test 【1】 they can finish high school. They pointed out major college entrance tests are changing now 【2】 (include) a writing part.
Educators know that teaching students to write well is not easy. One problem is the amount of time needed to read through large amounts of work. So some companies 【3】 (develop) computer programs that can grade students writing more quickly than a person can. Writing tests can also cost 【4】 (little) to carry out by computer than paper-and-pencil. These computer systems, known as e-readers, use artificial intelligence to think in a way 【5】 teachers. For two years, both a computer and humans graded the student writing. Officials say there was almost no difference between the computer grades and 【6】 given by the human readers.
The entrance test commonly 【7】(use) by business schools, the GMAT, already uses e-readers. The GRE and TOEFL tests might start; officials are deciding.
Systems 【8】(use) to grade writing in college classes as well. The computers read a few hundred examples of student writing already graded by humans. Then the systems compare new writing against those already examined.
Some teachers say machines can never do the job as well as people can. A computer can find spelling and grammar mistakes, but it can never really understand 【9】 a writer is trying to say. Critics say a program cannot follow a thought or judge humor or understand a beautifully expressed idea.
But inventors of the programs say computer grading guarantees that each piece of writing is graded in the same way. They also say the systems 【10】(mean) to judge knowledge more than creativity.

After supper, Li Hua came and asked me go and see a film with him. In our way to the cinema we saw the little girl sitting by the roadside cry. We bring her a cake to stop her crying.
