Vince, Jason, Rosa, Danny和Donna各自打算參加學(xué)校的一個俱樂部。閱讀第71~75題中的個人情況說明和A到F六個俱樂部介紹，選出特合各人個性特征的最佳選項。選項中有一項是多余選項。

1. As a freshman in university, Vince enjoys a lot of spare time. But unlike some of his classmates who waste the time on sleep and computer games, he wants to make his spare time more colorful. He will use the first year to travel around to broaden his horizon.

2. Having traveled a lot, Jason realized the need to keep the beautiful scenery forever in his mind. So he saved money and bought a camera. Now all he needs is the skill to catch the breathtaking moment.

3. Smart and adorable, Rosa is a popular singer in her university. Besides, like an English-majored student, she speaks fluent and beautiful English. It always comes to her mind why not put singing and English together, it will be a perfect way to learn and entertain.

4. Everyone has a dream, so does Danny. He dreamed of becoming a diplomat(外交官) since childhood. So he likes to read the books concerning politics, economy and foreign affairs. His classmates thus gave him the nickname "Mr. Know Everything".

5. Donna spent her childhood mostly in her father's study, where she did a lot of readings about Chinese classical literatures. Now as a college student, she thinks she should make full use of her free time to read as many literary books as possible.

A．Siyuan Club It was founded in September, 2007. Our club is aimed at bringing students into traditional Chinese culture and classical literature. We have had some outings for visiting cultural relics and watched art movies related to Eastern and Western ancient cultures. All these activities can build a good link between Chinese and Western cultures.

B．View Forum This club aims to explore students' global view in politics and enable students to think logically and critically by looking at and discussing current events. There are 12 members and 4 meetings have been held on the discussion of several different topics. Students are encouraged to focus on the happenings in the world and build their own opinions.

C．Mathematics Club It is an academically-oriented club organized by students who are interested in mathematics, who are strong or even weak at mathematics. It is like an extended stage to continuously study mathematics outside the classroom. There are about 45 club members arranging regular team work, collecting updated exercises for extra practice, organizing lecture notes for revision and recruiting new members.

D．Photographic Club It was established by a group of shutterbugs with the purpose of promoting an interest in photography. Students can learn how to take and edit photos using professional software and have the opportunities to exhibit their works. Also the members are required to take pictures in all the university affairs.

E. Youth Club     It was founded in October, 2006. It is aimed at making students' spare time more colorful. Our club mainly organizes trips for both individuals and organizations and all our activities are based on investigation in order to give good service to students.

F. Harmony Club     Established in November 2007, this club is to teach traditional English song; and deliver English culture and music. One reason why it is so popular is that it often invites famous musicians to give coaching lessons here. You are welcome to join it.

“The price of books for our students is just getting higher and higher and，combined with the rising cost of tuition，it’s killing these students，”said Peter Jason，a college professor．“Remember，students are one of the poorest groups of people in America．Almost half of them have at least one part-time job．In fact，one of my students has three jobs．And she still manages to have high scores and go to school full-time.”

Textbook prices are traditionally high．Adding to that problem，many college teachers change textbooks year after year；they either upgrade to a new edition or switch to an entirely different textbook．This further hurts students because if an instructor no longer uses a particular textbook，that book has no resale value．

Dr．Jason decided to make lire a little easier and a lot cheaper for his students by writing his own book on public speaking．“Many books have an increased price because of CD-ROMs，lots of color photographs and pictures．I talked to my students，and many of them，like me，prefer to keep things simple! So，a few years ago，I wrote my own textbook．Compared to most other public speaking books，mine is half the number of pages，and one-third the price．That is，$30 instead of $90．When I wrote a second edition last year，students only had to buy the 35 new pages, For only $7．00，they had almost a new book. Now my loose-leaf textbook enjoys great popularity among the students．Maybe in the future more writers and publishers will try it．”   

1.What did Dr. Jason say about students at college?

A．They are short of money．                B．They need better textbooks

C．They should do part-time jobs．            D．They are trying to get high scores．

2.What did Dr．Jason decide to do to help the students?

A．To choose cheaper textbooks．            B．To write a textbook himself．

C．To speak to his students.                  D．To use old textbooks．

3.How much does a public speaking textbook usually cost?

A．About 7 dollars.                        B．About 30 dollars.

C．About 37 dollars．                      D．About 90 dollars．

4.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

A．Dr Jason's textbook has CD-ROMs and nice pictures.

B．More writers and publishers will write simpler textbooks．

C．Dr．Jason teaches public speaking at a college．

D．Dr-Jason’s textbook is not well received．

Mark and his brother Jason both were looking at the shining new computer enviously. Jason was determined not to go against their father’s wishes but Mark was more adventurous than his brother. He loved experimenting and his aim was to become a scientist like his father.

“Dad will be really mad if he finds out you’ve been playing with his new computer.” Jason said, “He told us not to touch it.”

“He won’t find out.” Mark said, “I’ll just have a quick look and shut it down.”

Mark had been scolded before for touching his father’s equipment. But his curiosity was difficult to control and this new computer really puzzled him.

“It was a strange-looking machine –one his dad had brought home from the laboratory where he worked. “It’s an experimental model,” his father had explained, “so don’t touch it under any circumstances.” But his warning only served to make Mark more curious. Without any further thought, Mark turned on the power switch. The computer burst into life and seconds later, the screen turned into colors, shifting and changing and then two big white words appeared in the center of the screen: “SPACE TRANSPORTER.”

“Yes!” Mark cried excitedly, “It’s a computer game. I knew it! Dad’s only been pretending to work. He’s really been playing games instead.” A new message appeared on the screen:

“ENTER NAMES

VOYAGER 1: …

VOYAGER 2: …”

Mark’s fingers flew across the keyboard as he typed in both of their names.

“INPUT ACCEPTED. START TRANSPORT PROGRAM. AUTO-RETRIEVE INITIATED（自動回收程序已啟動）.”

The screen turned even brighter and a noise suddenly rose in volume.

“I think we’d better shut it off, Mark,” Jason yelled, reaching for the power switch. He was really frightened.

But his hand never reached the switch. A single beam of dazzling white light burst out of the computer screen, wrapping the boys in its glow (光芒), until they themselves seemed to be glowing. Then it died down just as suddenly as it had burst into life. And the boys were no longer there. On the screen, the letters changed.

“TRANSPORT SUCCESSFUL. DESTINATION: MARS. RETRIEVE DATE: 2025.”

1.Why did Mark touch the computer against his father’s warning?

A．He wanted to take a voyage.

B．He wanted to practice his skill

C．He was so much attracted by it.

D．He was eager to do an experiment.

2.Where did the boy’s father most likely work?

A．In an electronic factory.

B．In a computer company.

C．In a scientific research center.

D．In an information processing center.

3.Mark thought “SPACE TRANSPORTER” on the screen was the name of          .

A．a(chǎn) computer game

B．a(chǎn) company website

C．a(chǎn) software producer

D．a(chǎn)n astronomy program

4.Why did Jason want to shut off the computer?

A．He was afraid of being scolded.

B．He didn’t like the loud noise and light.

C．He didn’t want to play games any more.

D．He was afraid something dangerous might happen.

5.What happened to the boys at the end of the story?

A．They were blown into the air.

B．They were sent to another planet.

C．They were hidden in the strong light.

D．They were carried away to another country

Few of us make money by losing sleep．But three graduate students at Brown University in Providence built a company around sleep deprivation （睡眠不足）．

         Jason Donahue, Ben Rubin and Eric Shashoua were working late nights in Brown's business and engineering schools．They began thinking about ways to sleep better．They discovered they weren't alone in burning the midnight oil．Around 20% of Americans get less than six hours of rest a night．

         The friends imagined a smart alarm clock that could track how much time people spend in the most restorative （有回復(fù)作用的） stages of the sleep cycle: REM （rapid eye movement） and deep sleep．What would it cost to design such a thing? Five years of research, 20 employees, $14 million and a whole lot of doubting from investors and scientists．

         Their company, Zeo, based in Newton, Mass, launched its product in June, 2009．The Zeo device uses a headband with tiny sensors （傳感器） that scan your brain for signs of four sleep states- REM, light, deep and waking sleep．The smart alarm clock displays a graph of your sleep pattern and wakes you as you're not in REM sleep （which is when you're least groggy）．In the morning you can upload the data to the company's Web site, and so track your sleep over time．Most of the feedback comes in the form of Zeo's ZQ score showing how well you've slept．

         "Zeo allows people to unlock this black box of sleep," says Dave Dickinson, a health-care CEO．

         Whether any of this actually improves sleep is up to the consumer, who will also need to make lifestyle changes like cutting out alcohol before bedtime or caffeine after 3 pm．

         For now the company is selling Zeo online only．Dickinson also plans to spread it to countries such as Australia, where sleep deprivation approaches US levels．

1.Who will support Zeo?

         A．People full of imagination．              B．People suffering sleeping problems．

         C．People having access to the Internet． D．People having bad lifestyles．

2.Why did the three graduate students imagine a smart alarm clock?

         A．To wake them up on time in the morning．

         B．To earn enough money for their study．

         C．To improve the quality of people's sleep．

         D．To enjoy their life while working at night．

3.To design the Zeo device, the three graduate students ____．

         A．spent much time and money           B．were widely supported by scientists

         C．worked by themselves all the time        D．a(chǎn)ttracted many investors

4.What can we know from the passage?

         A．Zeo has a direct effect on users' lifestyles．

         B．It needs more personal efforts to make Zeo function better．

         C．A large quantity of Zeo devices have been sold in Australia．

         D．Consumers can go to the Zeo company to purchase Zeo in person．
