( A )
After my husband died suddenly frm a heart attack, my wrld crashed arund me. My six children were all under 10, and I was burdened with the respnsibilities f earning a living, and caring fr the children. I was frtunate t find a wnderful husekeeper t care fr the children during the week, but frm Friday nights t Mnday mrnings, the children and I were alne.
One Friday evening I came hme frm wrk t find a big pretty German Shepherd（牧羊犬）n ur drstep. This dg seemed t intend t enter the huse. The children liked “German” immediately and begged me t let him in. I agreed t let him sleep in the basement. That night I slept peacefully fr the first time in many weeks.
The fllwing mrning we made phne calls and checked lst-and-fund ads fr German’s wner, but with n results.
On Sunday I had planned t take children n a picnic. Since I thught it best t leave German behind in case his wner came by, we drve ff withut him. When we stpped t get gas, we were amazed t see German racing t the gas statin after us. N way was he ging t be left behind.

This pattern repeated itself every weekend fr almst 10 mnths. We grew mre and mre fnd f German. We tk cmfrt in his strng, warm presence, and we felt safe with him near us. As German became part f the family, he cnsidered it his duty t check every bedrm t be sure each child was czy in bed.
Each week, between German’s visits, I grew a little strnger, a little braver and mre able t handle; every weekend, we were n lnger alne and enjyed his cmpany. Then ne Mnday mrning we patted him n the head and let him ut fr what turned ut t be the last time. We never saw German again.

Fr sme peple, music is n fun at all. Abut fur percent f the ppulatin is what scientists call “amusic.” Peple wh are amusic are brn withut the ability t recgnize r reprduce musical ntes (音调). Amusic peple ften cannt tell the difference between tw sngs. Amusics can nly hear the difference between tw ntes if they are very far apart n the musical scale.
As a result, sngs sund like nise t an amusic. Many amusics cmpare the sund f music t pieces f metal hitting each ther. Life can be hard fr amusics. Their inability t enjy music set them apart frm thers. It can be difficult fr ther peple t identify with their cnditin. In fact, mst peple cannt begin t grasp what it feels like t be amusic. Just ging t a restaurant r a shpping mall can be uncmfrtable r even painful. That is why many amusics intentinally stay away frm places where there is music. Hwever, this can result in withdrawal and scial islatin. “I used t hate parties,” says Margaret, a seventy-year-ld wman wh nly recently discvered that she was amusic. By studying peple like Margaret, scientists are finally learning hw t identify this unusual cnditin.
Scientists say that the brains f amusics are different frm the brains f peple wh can appreciate music. The difference is cmplex, and it desn’t invlve defective hearing. Amusics can understand ther nnmusical sunds well. They als have n prblems understanding rdinary speech. Scientists cmpare amusics t peple wh just can’t see certain clrs.
Many amusics are happy when their cnditin is finally diagnsed (诊断). Fr years, Margaret felt embarrassed abut her prblem with music. Nw she knws that she is nt alne. There is a name fr her cnditin. That makes it easier fr her t explain. “When peple invite me t a cncert, I just say, ‘N thanks, I’m amusic,’” says Margaret. “I just wish I had learned t say that when I was seventeen and nt seventy.”
64. Which f the fllwing is true f amusics?
A. Listening t music is far frm enjyable fr them.
B. They lve places where they are likely t hear music.
C. They can easily tell tw different sngs apart.
D. Their situatin is well understd by musicians.
65. Accrding t paragraph 3, a persn with “defective hearing” is prbably ne wh __________.
A. dislikes listening t speeches B. can hear anything nnmusical
C. has a hearing prblem D. lacks a cmplex hearing system
66. In the last paragraph, Margaret expressed her wish that __________.
A. her prblem with music had been diagnsed earlier
B. she were seventeen years ld rather than seventy
C. her prblem culd be easily explained
D. she were able t meet ther amusics
67. What is the passage mainly cncerned with?
A. Amusics’ strange behaviurs. B. Sme peple’s inability t enjy music.

(D)
The cllege years are suppsed t be a time fr imprtant grwth in autnmy and the develpment f adult identity. Hwever, nw they are becming an extended perid f adlescence, during which many f tday’s students are nt shuldered with adult respnsibilities.
Fr previus generatin, cllege was decisive break frm parental cntrl; guidance and supprt needed help frm peple f the same age and frm within. In the past tw decades, hwever, cntinued cnnectin with and dependence n family, thanks t cell phnes, email and scial media, have increased significantly. Sme parents g s far as t help with cursewrk. Instead f prmting the idea f cllege as a passage frm the shelter f family t autnmy and adult respnsibility, universities have given in t the idea that they shuld prvide the same envirnment as that f the hme.
T prepare fr increased autnmy and respnsibility, cllege needs t be a time f explratin and experimentatin. This prcess invlves “trying n” new ways f thinking abut neself bth intellectually and persnally. While we shuld prvide “safe spaces” within clleges, we must als make it safe t express pinins and challenge majrity views. Intellectual grwth and flexibility are fstered by strict debate and questining.
Learning t deal with the scial wrld is equally imprtant. Because a cllege cmmunity differs frm the family , many students will struggle t find a sense f belnging. If students rely n administratrs t regulate their scial behavir and thinking pattern, they are nt facing the challenge f finding an identity within a larger and cmplex cmmunity.
Mrever, the tendency fr universities t mnitr and shape student behavair runs up against anther characteristic f yung adults: the respnse t being cntrlled by their elders. If acceptable scial behavir is t strictly defined and cntrlled, the insensitive r aggressive behavir that administratr are seeking t minimize may actually be encuraged.
It is nt surprising that yung peple are likely t burst ut, particularly when there are reasns t d s. Our generatin nce jined hands and std firm at times f natinal emergency. What is lacking tday is the cnflict between adlescent’s desire fr autnmy and their understanding f an unsafe wrld. Therefre, there is the desire fr their drms t be replacement hmes and nt places t experience intellectual grwth.
Every cllege discussin abut cmmunity values, scial climate and behavir shuld include recgnitin f the develpmental imprtance f student autnmy and self-regulatin, f the necessary tensin between safety and self-discvery.
68. What’s the authr’s attitude tward cntinued parental guidance t cllege students?
A. Sympathetic B. Disapprving C. Supprtive D. Neutral
69. The underline wrd “passage” in paragraph 2 means _______.
A. change B. chice C. text D. extensin
70. Accrding t the authr, what rle shuld cllege play?
A. T develp a shared identity amng students
B. B. T define and regulate students’ scial behavir
C. T prvide a safe wrld withut tensin fr students
D. T fster students’ intellectual and persnal develpment
71. Which ne is the best title fr the passage?
A. Adlescent Autnmy VS Adult Interference
B. Scial Behaviral Cultivatin fr Cllege Life
C. Cllege Shuld Be a HmeAway Frm Hme
D. Why Cllege Is Nt Hme

There are peple wh can answer an insignificant advertisement in the lcal paper and land the best jb in the wrld; thers write t all srts f places all ver the cuntry, and never seem t get a reply at all. Still thers believe that the in persn, dr-t-dr apprach is by far the best way t get a jb; and then there are thse wh, thrugh n active decisin f their wn, just seem t be in the right place at the right time ____73____. He used t spend a lt f his free time dwn by the sea watching the tall ships, but never thinking that he might ne day sail ne f them. His father was a farmer, and being a sailr culd never be anything fr the by but an idle dream. One day, n his usual wandering, he heard the captain f the ship cmplaining that he culd nt sail because ne member f his crew was sick. Withut stpping t think, the lad （少年） ffered t take his place. ____74____.
This stry als illustrates the imprtance f seizing an pprtunity when it presents itself. If the lad had gne hme t pnder （考虑） his decisin fr a week, he may have missed his chance. It is ne thing t be ffered an pprtunity; it is anther thing t take it and use it well.
