The richest man in the world can now also claim a degree from the college he dropped out of three decades ago. Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates delivered the commencement (典禮) address at Harvard University on Thursday, and was awarded the L. L. D. honorary doctorate (博士頭銜).

“Our speaker is known as the most influential entrepreneur(企業(yè)家) of the personal computer revolution. He was named as one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2004, 2005, 2006 and again in 2007, ” said Harvard’s president, Derek Bok. Then Bok spoke more directly to Gates: “Just think what you could have achieved if you had stayed another two years.”

Gates told the students, many of whom will soon be launching into full-time careers, that work isn’t the only thing of importance.

“Judge yourself not on the professional accomplishments but on how well you have addressed the world’s inequities, how you have treated people who have nothing to do with you,” he said.

In recent months, Gates has been giving a larger part of his time and energy to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which focuses on issues including global health and education. In 2008, he plans to make the foundation his chief responsibility.

But for the most part, the Microsoft co-founder stuck to the serious message about trying to make the world a better place. He urged the graduates not to get discouraged about seemingly intractable (棘手的) challenges of poverty and poor health.

As many as 30,000 people were expected to attend the outdoor commencement ceremony. Gates wasn’t the only high-profile speaker on the Cambridge campus this week. On Wednesday, former President Bill Clinton delivered Harvard’s Class Day speech. Gates and Clinton have collaborated (合作) on great efforts to fight the AIDS epidemic in developing countries. Recent past Harvard commencement speakers have included journalist Jim Lehrer in 2006, actor and writer John Lithgow in 2005 and United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan in 2004.

A. got an important award from Harvard University

B. left the college for his career ahead of two years

A. it claims a degree from the college one dropped out of

C. it fixes its eyes on issues about health and education throughout the world.

A. he claimed a degree      B. he used much of his time and energy to his Foundation

Each winter, the rugged North Shore serves up some of the largest and most impressive ocean waves on the planet．Giant waves make their long journey across the northern Pacific to the area’s shoreline．For many island residents, this means only one thing: surf up．

The exact origin of surfing is unknown, but most historians believe that the Polynesians were already very good at the sport by the time they migrated to the Hawaiian Islands some 2 000 years ago．Early Hawaiians called surfing “He’e nalu”, which literally translates to “wave sliding”．During this time, only high-ranking officials and nobles had access to the best surf spots．King Kamehameha himself was said to be a keen and skilled surfer．
Surfing really took off in the early 1990s．Riding boards made from redwood and balsa wood, early surfers risked their lives to take on these giant waves．
Today, thanks to a number of modern innovations and inventions, the surfing population on the North Shore has exploded．Wave riders and spectators from around the world gather here from November to February, hoping to catch that perfect wave．Winter wave heights can get as high as 20 feet, with faces up to 50 feet! This extreme surf is for experts only, and even then conditions are considered highly dangerous．
World-known surf contests are held here from early November to late December．The Van’s Triple Crown of Surfing, which includes the Vans Hawaiian Pro at Ali’ i Beach Park in Hale’ iwa, the Rip Curl Cup at Sunset Beach, brings together the world’s best professional surfers．Watching them surfing on the grand waves is really a feast for the eyes．
Although winter on the North Shore may not be the best time and place to learn how to surf, the summer months provide safer and more favorable conditions．
64．The passage is most probably from ________．
A．a(chǎn) guide book                                                     B．a(chǎn) magazine                 
C．a(chǎn) government report                                               D．a(chǎn) geography textbook
65．What can we learn from the passage?
A．High officials were the best surfers in the past.

As the price of a college degree continues to rise, there's growing evidence that the monetary（貨幣的） payoff isn't quite as big as often advertised. The best estimate now is that a college degree is worth about $300,000 in today's dollars--nowhere near the million figure that is often quoted.
"That million number has driven me crazy!" says Sandy Baum, a Skidmore economist who studied the value of a college degree for the College Board last year.
Baum's research showed that college graduates earn, on average, about $20,000 a year more than those who finished their educations at high school. Add that up over a 40-year working life and the total differential is about $800,000, she figures. But since much of that bonus is earned many years from now, taking away the impact of inflation means that$800,000 in future dollars is worth only about $450,000 in today's dollars.
Then, if you remove the cost of a college degree--about ,$30,000 in tuition and books for students who get no aid and attend public in-state universities--and the money a student could have earned at a job instead of attending school, the real net value in today's dollars is somewhere in the $300,000 range, a number confirmed by other studies.
But, especially these days, that still makes a college degree one of the most lucrative investments a person can make, Baum notes.
　Better yet, college graduates can go on to earn advanced degrees, which return even bigger payoffs. The average holder of a bachelor's degree earns about$51,000 a year, Baum calculates. But those who've gone on to earn MBAs, law degrees, or other professional degrees earn about $100,000 a year.
　In addition, Baum found that there are plenty of other rewards for a degree. The quality of the jobs college graduates get is far better, for example. College graduates are more likely to get jobs with health insurance. And it is easier for them to find and hold jobs. The unemployment rate for college graduates was just 2.2 percent last year, half the unemployment level of those with only high school diplomas.
There are lots of other nonmonetary benefits as well. College graduates are healthier, contribute more to their communities, and raise kids who are better prepared academically, studies show.
Other researchers have found that the payoff of a degree is especially lucrative for students from low-income families, since the education and degrees give them a chance to break out of low-paying careers.
【小題1】What can be inferred from Para 1 ?

A．The payoff of a college degree is still big enough to match the advertised.
B．It’s more and more difficult to get a college degree.
C．The return of a college degree is less than often quoted.
D．A college degree is worth about one million dollars.
【小題2】Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “l(fā)ucrative” in Para.5?
A．a(chǎn)ttractive B．worthlessC．a(chǎn)pproachable D．balanced
【小題3】How can a college graduate increase his or her yearly income according to the passage?
A．By getting jobs with health insurance immediately.
B．By going on for higher degrees.
C．By breaking out of low-paying jobs.
D．By contributing more to his or her community.
【小題4】Which of the following statements can be learned from the text ?
A． According to Baum's research, high school graduates earn more than those who have college degrees.
B． College education is enough to ensure you a good life.
C． Nonmonetary benefits from the degree attract students more than monetary ones.
D．Students from low-income families still think degrees are profitable to change their life.
