23、tudents' negative emotions again.Suicide can be contagious，” Zhang said. The university reacted promptly to the first suicide on October 23. Advisors and class leaders conducted dorm-to-dorm checks to find students suffering depression.Then psychologists offered one-on-one counseling to them. Not

However，the second suicide came seven days later. Both students were described as men of few words.Their s

25、choolmates didn't see anything to indicate suicide. Zhang revealed that the two students had been bothered by mental disorders.But the school didn't know this until the students' close friends outside school and their parents unveiled the truth after the suicides. According to Zhang，there are only

Hu is also concerned that some universities are conveying discriminatory message that will hold back students from seeking help.

Those who have a passion(熱情，激情)for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment.Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hard

35、ship，and to take risks on high mountains？This astonishment is caused probably by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activities to which men give their leisure. Mountaineering is a sport and not a game.There are no man-made rules，as there are for such games as golf and football

36、.There are，of course，rules of a different kind，which would be dangerous to ignore，but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people.Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods. If we compare mountaineering with other more familiar sports，

37、we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game”．We would be mistaken in this assumption.There are，it is true，no “matches” between “teams” of climbers，but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend，there is obviously teamwork.

38、 The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than men.He has to fight the forces of nature.This sport requires high mental and physical capacities.

[2]Prepare as well as you possibly can.Search the web and research the background of the

44、 company and the people who you think are going to be interviewing you.Learn exactly what it is that they do and exactly how you would fit in with the company.Most importantly，try to understand the “culture” of the company.You need to communicate in a way that mirrors their company standards；this wi

[4]During the inte

47、rview，be a very good listener and if you can find some common ground with your interviewers，you will have a big advantage over your competitors.The interview is basically an interaction between two people，so how you come across as a person is of utmost importance.As soon as you enter the company bui

48、lding，make sure everyone you meet is left with the impression that you are a pleasant person.Sometimes an interview question might seem very simple but，don't be deceived，there is always a reason for them asking that question. [5]Generally wear a suit and tie，but it does depend on the job you are go

49、ing for.You should have discovered，when you studied the company culture，what is expected.For media companies，for example，being smart but casual might be the style they want.They are looking for someone who is comfortable with himself or herself.In this case you should dress for who you are.

54、6 refers to __________.(no more than 5 words) 參考答案 第一節(jié) A 1. 答案：A 解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句“Several clearly oppose the outdated idea of fathers as detached(使分開) from the parenting process and that's just what the photographers intended.”可知，《時代》的攝影師們認(rèn)為Oscar Wilde的觀點已經(jīng)過時了。 2. 答案：B 解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章開頭“‘F

55、athers should be neither seen nor heard，’wrote Oscar Wilde.‘This is the only proper basis for family life.’”可推知，Oscar Wilde認(rèn)為在家庭生活中，父親要和孩子們保持一定的距離，故答案為B項。 3. 答案：A 解析：詞義猜測題。根據(jù)畫線詞所在句下一句的內(nèi)容可知，Gregory Heisler想向讀者展示最真實的父親對孩子的關(guān)愛之情，故“genuine”與“real”同義。 4. 答案：D 解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從第三段中的“Although Lowe has not

56、experienced fatherhood yet，he observed many warm moments of parenting by spending a lot of private time with each dad and child.”可以看出，Lowe通過觀察那些父親和孩子在一起的溫馨時刻，來傳遞自己的理念。 5. 答案：A 解析：判斷正誤題。由第二段中的“This isn't the first time that...some 20 times”可知A項正確，由第四段的第一句可知B項錯誤；由第三段的最后一句可知C項錯誤；通讀全文可知，D項在文中沒有信息支持

57、，故可排除。 B 6. 答案：D 解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“...the ECu(E for energy，Cu for copper) is coated by copper backing with heat sinks like those normally used to keep electronics from overheating.”可知，這種手機有一個銅制的后蓋，可以防止電器過熱，所以有一個導(dǎo)熱性很強的蓋子。 7. 答案：A 解析：推理判斷題。畫線部分后面“...like those normally used to keep electro

58、nics from overheating.”作出了解釋，說明是用來散熱的。 8. 答案：B 解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段“Annually，unwanted phone chargers produce 51,000 tons of waste in addition to the greenhouse gases created by the production of the electricity needed to charge them.”和“So a chargerfree phone is also a green phone.”看出，這種手機不需要像普通手機那樣插入

59、電源充電，有節(jié)能的功能；根據(jù)第一段“...it charges from any heat source.”可知這種手機是從熱源那里獲得電源，通過里面配置的熱偶發(fā)電器把熱能隨時轉(zhuǎn)換為電能，因此綠色環(huán)保，答案為B項。 9. 答案：D 解析：推理判斷題。從后兩段看出，即使在沒有電源的地方也可以使用這種手機，結(jié)合“countless opportunities，aid and health advances”判斷，這種手機潛力無限、前景廣闊。 10. 答案：C 解析：主旨大意題。本文介紹的是一種不用插入電源、在口袋里即可獲得電能的手機，所以答案為C項。 C 11. 答案：C

60、 解析：詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第三段“We had a hard time calming down students...”以及第四段“Media coverage may arouse some students' negative emotions again.”可知校方不愿意接受采訪。 12. 答案：C 解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第六段開頭“Advisors and class leaders conducted dormtodorm checks to find students suffering depression.”可知答案為C項。 13. 答案：B 解析：推理判斷

61、題。Entertainment指“娛樂版”；Campus指“校園版”；Advertisement指“廣告版”；Culture指“文化版”。本文介紹的是華中科技大學(xué)學(xué)生跳樓自殺的原因和解決辦法，所以應(yīng)在“校園版”。 14. 答案：A 解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。校方對第一次自殺事件迅速做出了反應(yīng)，這不應(yīng)該是他們不愿接受采訪的原因。 15. 答案：B 解析：主旨大意題。本文首先由描述華中科技大學(xué)兩名學(xué)生自殺引出“大學(xué)生自殺”這一社會現(xiàn)象和問題，然后分析產(chǎn)生此現(xiàn)象的原因，最后提出解決方法。解決方法是重點，所以答案為B項。 D 16. 答案：D 解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第二句“...t

62、o suffer cold and hardship，and to take risks on high mountains？”可知，爬山者要遭受寒冷、艱辛，還要冒各種風(fēng)險?？芍xD項，“包含以上全部內(nèi)容”。 17. 答案：C 解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第二、三句“There are no manmade rules，as there are for such games as golf and football.There are，of course，rules of a different kind...”可知，運動與游戲的主要不同在于規(guī)則。 18. 答案：D 解析：

63、細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第三句“...when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend，there is obviously teamwork.”可知，登山運動員在登山過程中也需要相互依靠。所以登山運動也是一項集體運動，正確答案為D項。 19. 答案：C 解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段第三句“There are，it is true，no ‘matches’ between ‘teams’ of climbers...”以及第五段第二句“He has to fight the

64、forces of nature.”可知，登山運動是同大自然進(jìn)行比賽。 20. 答案：A 解析：主旨大意題。本文主要在討論登山運動并將其與其他運動相比較，A項最具概括性。 第二節(jié) 1. 答案：Tips on making a successful interview 2. 答案：Make Full Selfpreparation 3. 答案：To be a good listener and find some common ground with your interviewers. 4. 答案：smartly and casually/in a smart and casual style 5. 答案：that you are nervous
