12.What do you see from a handful of seeds?Some see green plants,some see blooming flowers,or just seeds.But one group of Shanghai students saw an opportunity to make money.
Eight students from No 2Secondary School Attached to East China Normal University started a virtual company selling different seeds and seed products.They successfully sold 28pictures pasted with different seeds at a campus auction a week ago.The company,which has recruited around 20student staff members,has earned over 2000yuan in the past three months.
"We donated part of the money to a poor school in the countryside of Anhui Province.It's great to realize our ideal of‘spreading love and culture with seeds'after many tests and lots of hard work,"said Senior 2Shi Chen,CEO of the company.
Just like any other company,Shi's didn't develop smoothly.Shi and her young colleagues used to sell fresh flowers and old books,and later found seeds might be something that their company could engage in.They bought seeds of various plants and flowers at low prices from a local farm and sold them in schools or on streets.The creative students also made accessories and pictures with different seeds.
With little business knowledge,the students had to learn new skills as the leaders of different departments,such as public relations (PR),sales and marketing.They persuaded a joint Sino-French company near their school to give them training in business management.They also asked some local businessmen to act as their consultants.
"They helped us overcome our shyness.We also learned quite a lot of business theory.I found communication skills and teamwork are very important for my job,"said Senior 1Qian Yifei.
The 16-year-old was elected as PR manager thanks to her talent for speaking.She is also in charge of after sales service,dealing with complaints and providing suggestions.
As the head of the company,CEO Shi has a lot more to think about.First of all,she has to learn how to make her colleagues work efficiently as the company only opens at weekends due to all their studies.So she established a system to evaluate every one's performance,in terms of punctuality,efficiency,profits knowledge and so on.
" It makes the company more formal,"she said.
32.What is the purpose of opening the company?D
A.To earn money for their education fees.
B.To collect money to open a Hope School.
C.To see whether they can open a company.
D.To spread love and culture with seeds.

A.Educational background.

A.Selling seeds.
B.To make her colleagues work efficiently.
C.Every colleague's performance.
D.To have a person as CEO.

20.Born in the State of New York on May 14th,1984,Mark Zuckerberg was an instant success.In his high school years,he was considered one of top students in the classics,before moving into the arts,sciences,and literature,again picking up high marks and receiving academic praise.It earned him admission to Harvard University.
    As a rebellious but relatively quiet student,he created a website called Facemash in the university-an instantly controversial website that encouraged students to rate each other based on appearance.
    The site was controversial for several reasons.The first was its illegal use of photographs,which the university and students took issue with.The second was its controversial nature---not every student like being ranked based on their appearance.The third was its huge resource use---while it was hosted on Harvard servers,it was the most popular page in the university's entire network.
    Zuckerberg was soon forced to shut the site down,but its popularity and controversy had made him consider its future potential(有潛力的).He soon turned the simple site into a personal one for Harvard students,encouraging them to network with their peers at the college.It was then,together with his two friends,that they launched"The Facebook",which immediately spread to other colleges and grew into a public service that anyone could access in the United States,whether to network with friends and family,or to play games.
    The company has been criticized frequently,however,Zuckerberg has remained true to his initial(最初的) vision-to create a website that the entire world can use to communicate openly and easily with one another and to keep the user experience clean and pure.The end result is one of the world's biggest online businesses.
    Although its true value is debatable,it's safe to say that Facebook,and its creator Mark Zuckerberg,are two of the twenty-first century's most influential,controversial,and potentially powerful figures.
21.When Mark Zuckerberg was a student,heC.
A.was often praised by teachers for the website he created
B.a(chǎn)lone created a website called Facebook
C.had good academic performances
D.encouraged students to set up business like him
22.The reason why Zuckerberg shut the site down was probably thatB.
A.his website was not popular                  
B.he was doubted for the way he used photographs
C.he needed time to reconsider his choice          
D.he stole resource on Harvard server
23.Which words can best describe Zuckerberg?A
A.rebellious and creative.
B.quiet and shy.
C.talented and outgoing.
D.easy-going and smart.
24.The best title of the passage should beD.
A.The Development of Facebook              
B.The Foundation of Facebook
C.A Talent from Harvard University            
D.Mark Zuckerberg and his Facebook.

7.Sam Martin,24,from Belfast
    I do all my shopping on Christmas Eve because I prefer to get it done quickly.I certainly don't enjoy shopping.It doesn't matter when I shop---I probably won't buy gifts that people will want anyway.I just look at what's for sale and choose from whatever is there.I am never disappointed because I never have any idea what to buy anyone before I get to the shop,and I don't care about getting it at the best price.
Lucy Collins,34,from Liverpool
I've always finished all my shopping by the middle of August.I buy when things are cheap and when I can afford to.I also enjoy trying to buy as many gifts as possible at less than the full price.This year,I've spent£230 and saved£695 on the prices.
I think Christmas is a magical time so I like looking for gifts throughout the year.I also like knowing I've bought presents that people will enjoy,rather than picking through whatever is left in the shops on Christmas Eve.
Frankie Bircham,31,from Hertfordshire
I've always finished shopping by the end of September.I like the satisfaction of giving people presents they want---I don't like"Oh,that'll do".I prefer to buy online so I can compare prices to make sure I'm getting the best possible deal.It's cheaper than travelling into London to go shopping and I can easily return anything I don't like when it arrives.
Andi Euridge,40,from London
     I start my shopping in January and have always finished it by November.I don't like online shopping because then you have the craziness of parcels not arriving in time.
     I live on a tight budget(預(yù)算) and I cannot afford to buy all my gifts with one month's pay.So I prefer picking up a present here and there throughout the year.

17.You put a great deal of effort into reaching the college of your choice.It's time to get started.But what's next?Beginning college can be an exciting but awkward time.Follow these tips to adjust to your new life rapidly and make the most of your college experience.
●To save time and money,use the college's bus system.Taking the bus to school is quick,easy and free in most college towns.You won't have to locate or afford a place to park,either.It's also a good way to be environmentally aware.
●Save pennies on books by waiting until class starts.You might not even need all of the recommended books.New textbooks cost an arm and a leg.Try buying used textbooks-it's a sure fair way to save money and serves the purpose as well.
●Do never look at college life as an endless series of parties and social activities.But there is a whole lot more to college if you're serious about graduating.Having a good college experience is all about balancing work and fun.
●Be aware that your living environment can largely affect your academic success.If the dorm doesn't suit you,consider living at home with your family or renting your own apartment.The best location for your studies isn't always your dorm.Find a quiet area,like the library,to do your work.Alternatively,buy some headphones that block out noise.
●Be mindful of your diet.Make healthy food choices and watch what you eat.Avoid foods that are processed or high in sugar.The"freshman 15"is real.Many college students gain at least 15pounds during their freshmen year.
●While electives(選修課) can be helpful when figuring out your major,you shouldn't entirely rely on them.Clubs and other organizations exist around.Get involved.Make sure,though,that you still have time to study.Having too much on your plate can hurt your grades.

9.Which of the following ideas can be financially wise?B
A.Driving your own car.
B.Buying used books.
C.Renting an apartment.
D.Attending activities.
10.In the text,freshmen are repeatedly warned againstA.
A.a(chǎn)cademic failures  
B.emotional problems
C.traffic accidents  
D.social activities
11.The"freshman 15"tells the fact that some freshmenD.
A.a(chǎn)ttend limited activities on campus    
B.have little regular physical exercise
C.focus less on their academic work   
D.take relaxed attitudes to their diets

A.using too much money for meals    
B.eating too many unhealthy foods
C.taking part in too many afterclass activities  
D.taking an elective that has too many students.
