As we all know sewing-machine(縫紉機(jī)) repair is one of the fastest growing businesses in the world today. Newspapers, women’s magazines, high schools and colleges are all encouraging millions of American women to do their own sewing, not only to make their own shirts and sweaters, but also to make nice clothes for their husbands, sons, or boyfriends. The lattes figures(數(shù)字) show that over 89 million American women, because of the high costs of ready-to-wear clothing are now making almost all of their families’ clothes. Most of these women get great satisfaction from making the family clothes on their own sewing machines. So it is natural that the demand(要求) for excellent service of sewing machines is growing.

Think of it! 89 million or more sewing machines, not including another 10 million sewing machines in schools of all kinds, need service at least once a year, and quite possibly four or more times each year. I know some women who return their sewing machines to repairmen time after time to get them fixed properly. I’ve seen sewing machines come out of repair shops in worse condition than they were when they went in.

So I’ve decided to write an introduction book to sewing-machine repair and teach people how to repair their own sewing machines at home. It’s not that difficult. In the book, I will teach you everything you need to know about how to repair your sewing machine.

The author wrote the passage to        .

  A. teach women to repair their sewing machines.

  B. explain his or her purpose in writing the book

  C. introduce the reasons for doing one’s own sewing

  D. tell us that sewing-machine repair is a fast-growing business

American women make clothes by themselves because        .

  A. they cannot buy the clothes they see in magazines

  B. their husbands or boyfriends want them to do so

  C. ready-to-wear clothes cost a great deal of money

  D. they can’t get great satisfaction from buying clothes

We learn from the passage that sewing machines        .

  A. aren’t very difficult to be repaired

  B. cannot work well after one year

  C. don’t easily get broken

  D. need service 4 times a month

It can be inferred from the passage that        .

  A. the book will also show you how to make nice clothes

  B. there are not enough sewing-machine-repair shops in America

  C. over 99 million sewing machines need service at least once a year

  D. the demand for excellent service of sewing machines grows the fastest in America

For years my husband, John, and I had dreamed of taking our three kids to Disney World．We'd planned our trip down to the last detail and dollar．But in Georgia, halfway there, our car broke down．

At a garage, the mechanic promised our Mercury Sable would be repaired by the next week．Meanwhile, John tried to find us a rental car．After many phone calls, John finally found a car．Luckily, our auto club would pick up the tab．We ended up arriving there three hours behind schedule．We tried every ride and met Mickey．

At the end of the long weekend we called the garage to check on our car．It turned out that the mechanic hadn't even looked at it yet! John got on the phone again．He found it would cost more than $ l, 100 to rent a car to drive home．That plus a plane ticket for him to go pick up our own car and we'd be out over $2,000!

I wailed（痛哭） and asked John, "What are we going to do?"  He said, "It'll work out．" John encouraged me not to lose heart and he insisted on trying to find a way out．Amazingly, John found a car transport company that had a car we could drive home, paying only for gas! But all the way home I couldn't stop thinking about the money we'd still need for John's trip back to the garage and another long driving home．

When we got home, the high school student who had fed our cats asked how our trip was．I gave him the rundown, "Things worked out okay except that our car's still stuck in Georgia．" "No problem," he said．"I'm heading to Florida for a spring break with my parents．We'll be glad to stop in Georgia on the way back and pick up your car．"

We ended up spending only $50 more than we'd budgeted．The next week, our car was back, and I had a new understanding of dealing with trouble．Whatever happens, if you never give up, a good solution will come out at last．

Students who work during term time to support themselves at university are far more likely to graduate with a poor degree, according to a government-funded study published yesterday.

Undergraduates with part-time jobs are a third less likely to get a first or upper second-class degree than other students, harming their career chances. Students from the poorest backgrounds were most likely to take jobs during term because they could not depend on help from their parents.

The report, commissioned (委托) by the Department for Education and Skills, also found a clear relation between fear of debt and employment in non-graduate jobs. Students from poorer backgrounds are known to he more unwilling to be in debt than those from middle class families.

The study of 8,600 people who graduated in 1999 was made by Peter Elias, of Warwick University, and Kate Purcell, from Bristol Business School. They found that twice as many first-class degrees were awarded to students who did not work during term compared with those who did. Between 35 and 38 percent who worked during term achieved a lower second, compared with about 28 percent of those who did not.

Professor Elias said that the increase in school fees next year to ￡3,000 would have to be monitored (監(jiān)控) carefully for its effect on poorer students. "Higher education is going to be a harder struggle for those who do not come with all the advantages," he said.

He suggested that universities could get in touch with employers to provide work experience on good salaries to choose students during holidays, so that they did not have to work during term.

1.What's the main idea of the passage?

A. Students at university like to take part-time jobs to support themselves,

B. Term-time jobs at university lead to poorer examination results.

C. The school fees are becoming higher and higher at university.

D. Students at university have much difficulty getting first-class degrees.

2.Why did lots of students take term-jobs at university?

A. No one would lend them money to continue their study.

B. They wanted to improve themselves by taking part-time jobs,

C. Their families were poor and couldn't afford the high expense.

D. They thought earning money was more important than studying.

3.Students who took term-jobs at university ____.

A. had no possibility to study better than those who didn't

B. couldn't graduate from school normally in the future

C. might have trouble in finding a job in the future

D. were more independent than those who didn't in the future

4.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Poor students can't take part-time jobs all the time at university.

B. Employers have the duty to help poor students solve the money problem.

C. First class degrees couldn't be given to the students whose families were poor.

D. High school fees are one of the important reasons why students have to take term-jobs.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2011級(jí)重慶八中高三（上）第四次月考英語(yǔ)試題 題型：閱讀理解

Hungry for the brightest students, many of the country's stronger universities are actively discounting tuition （學(xué)費(fèi)）．And it's the high achievers, rather than the needy students, who are getting a good chunk of the money．The practice is remarkably widespread, reaching almost all but the 30 or so Ivy and other top colleges that forbid good grades-based financial aid．Schools are also becoming more aggressive in raising their discounts．At the DePauw University Website, enter an SAT or ACT score, grade point average and class rank, and a computer program immediately tells you what kind of "award"．Only "the real unlucky" pay full price any more．

About 76% of first-year students got some form of discount this year at 331 private schools．Average award per student: $7,000．At small schools with tuition under about $20,000, the average discount is even higher, with some schools returning over half their tuition．                                                         

Carnegie Mellon even tells students it will "negotiate（討價(jià)還價(jià)）" and perhaps match financial-aid packages if kids are offered bigger awards at other schools．Much as banks and insurers offer special rates to their best customers, schools are giving the biggest breaks to their top students．Public four-year colleges, too, are offering discounts．

The flip side of big discounts is that less money is available to improve academic programs and keep school infrastructure （基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施） up to date．Universities that have sharply increased their tuition discount rates have seen graduation rates fall, and that's true even among highly selective schools．They get the students in the door, but don't have the services to keep them．

1.From the first paragraph, we can judge that _______．

A．a(chǎn)ll the universities don’t offer tuition discounts．

B．Ivy and other top colleges offer financial aid to the high achievers

C．the needy students get more money from the universities

D．the graduation rates of the students from highly selected schools fall

2.The underlined words “flip side” in the last paragraph probably mean “_______”．

A．a(chǎn)dvantage

B．disadvantage

C．bad practice

D．good function

3.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A．The brightest students are not at all hungry for stronger universities．

B．About 76% of first-year students got an award of $ 20,000 per year．

C．Public colleges never offer discounts to the students．

D．Colleges should concentrate more on the services to keep the students

4.This passage mainly talks about _______．

A．the great benefit of offering lower tuition

B．college tuition discounts in popularity

C．the top students in need of tuition discounts

D．reducing graduation rates due to big discounts
