67.A college education can be very( )in the United States. Many students have to borrow money to help pay for college.

2. Passage 6 Community service is an important component of education here at our university. We encourage all students to volunteer for at least one community activity before they graduate. A new community program called ―One On One‖ helps elementary students who‘ve fallen behind. Your education majors might be especially interested in it because it offers the opportunity to do some teaching， that is， tutoring in Math and English. You‘d have to volunteer two hours a week for one semester. You can choose help a child with Math， English， or both. Half-hour lesson are fine， so you could do a half hour of each subject two days a week. Professor Dodge will act as a mentor to the tutors ---- he‘ll be available to help you with lesson plans or to offer suggestions for activities. He has office hours every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon. You can sign up for the program with him and begin the tutoring next week. I‘m sure you will enjoy this community service and you‘ll gain valuable experience at the same time. It looks good on your resume， too， showing that you‘ve had experience with children and that you care about your community. If you‘d like to sign up， or if you have any questions， stop by Professor Dodge‘s office this week. What is the purpose of the program that the passage describes?

A. 　To find jobs for graduating students.

B. 　To help education majors prepare for final exams.

C. 　To offer tutorials to elementary school students.

D. 　To provide funding for a community service project.

4. Passage 15 There is a commonly held myth that Einstein was an underachiever at school， but it really isn＇t true. While he may have had difficulties with languages， Einstein excelled in physics， mathematics and music. Einstein held many patents and was a keen inventor. While working at Swiss patent office in Bern he took it upon himself to write his own scientific papers in his spare time， mostly at weekends and in the evenings after work. 1905 was Einstein＇s miracle year. During this year he wrote three fundamental papers， any of which would have guaranteed him immortality in the world of physics. His first was on a new understanding of the structure of light. Einstein argued that light is composed of small particles of energy， called photons， as well as oscillating waves. The second paper built upon the theory of kinetics. Einstein explained how atoms were responsible for the buffeting of particles of material in suspension， like cigarette smoke suspended in air. This paper presented the first direct evidence for the existence of atoms， vindicating an idea that had been around for over 2000 years. His third paper of 1905 was ―On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies‖. Here Einstein derived the theory of ―special relativity‖. In a supplementary paper four months later， he formulated the famous equation， E=mc2， where mass and energy are equivalent， showing that a very small amount of mass converts to a huge amount of energy. This is the driving force behind atomic bombs， and all the stars in the Universe. Which theory did Einstein put forward in the third paper mentioned above?

A. 　Kinetics.

1. Passage 10 Your boss holds your future prospects in his hands. Some bosses are hard to get along with. Some have excellent qualifications but no idea when it comes to dealing with people. Of course， not all bosses are like that. The relationship you have with your boss can be a major factor in determining your rise up the career ladder. Your boss is not only your leader， he is also the person best equipped to help you do the job you are paid to do. He can inform you of company direction that may affect your professional development. Your boss also needs you to perform at your best in order to accomplish his objectives. He needs your feedback in order to provide realistic and useful reports to upper management. But how does this help you establish a meaningful working relationship with your boss? The key is communication. Learn and understand his goals and priorities (优先的事). Observe and understand your boss‘s work style. If he has not been clear with his expectations， ask! Likewise， ask for feedback and accept criticism gracefully. And if he understands that you do not view your job as just something to fill the hours between 9 and 5， he may be more likely to help you. In short， getting along with your boss requires getting to know his likes and dislikes and learning to work with his personality and management style. The main idea of the first paragraph is that( ).

A. 　 bosses are hard to deal with

B. 　 bosses have good character

C. 　 bosses determine your career future

D. 　 bosses must have similar personality
