Then he became a critic of Great Britains authority in America and was a leader of the American Revolution later. From 1789 to 1797, Adams was Americas first vice president. He was elected in the Presidential election of 1796 and served a single four-year term as the second U.S. president from 1797 to 1801. Andrew Jackson (1767-1845)Born in poverty, Andrew Jackson had become a wealthy Tennessee lawyer and rising young politician by 1812, when war broke out between the United States and Britain.

Andrew Jackson became the nations seventh president (1829-1837).John Quincy Adams (17671848)John Quincy Adams began his career as the U.S. minister to the Netherlands in 1794. After that, the younger Adams rejoined diplomatic service under President James Madison. As secretary of state under James Monroe, Adams played a key role in determining the presidents foreign policy. He went on to win the presidency in an election in 1824, and served only one term.

But those photos dont usually end up in a scrapbook (剪贴簿) or on his bedroom walls.When Timmy was five, he found out that his aunt Bev had lung cancer. He wanted to do something to help her. His first idea was to sell his photos from a lemonade-type stand in front of his house in Pennsylvania. “My mom said it wouldnt work because we were not on a busy street,” Timmy explains.His next idea was to have an art show. Timmy decorated his home with candles, flowers, and white lights. Then he arranged his photos. Timmys mom, Sheila, remembers: “Our dining-room table was filled, the living room everything was filled with photos.” Friends, family, and Timmys teachers came to the show. He raised more than $300 for cancer research that night. “Aunt Bev was very happy and excited,” he says.After a local newspaper wrote a story about Timmys photos, a volunteer offered to help him set up a website. As people learned about his cause, called Camera for a Cure, Timmy began receiving invitations to sell his pictures at art galleries and fund-raisers. Since then, his work has appeared in more than 20 shows.When Timmy is at a show, he greets each customer and talks about what he was thinking when he took his photos. And he always shares facts about lung cancer. Sometimes donations and sales are slow, but that doesnt bother him. “It doesnt matter how much money we made because we just raised awareness,” he says. Timmy knows that finding a cure for lung cancer will take time and effort. So Timmy will keep doing his part by shooting and selling photos of the things he sees.25. Before Timmy started Camera for a Cure, he_.A. always sold lemonade in front of his houseB. liked making scrapbooks by using his photosC. had developed a deep interest in photographyD. had been providing photos for a local newspaper26. What can we learn about the art show Timmy held at his home? A. It was generally popular. B. It cost $300 to organize it. C. It was funded by Aunt Bev. D. It was advertised on a website.27. For Timmy, whats the benefit of selling his photos at art galleries?A. Raising money more quickly.B. Improving his photographic skillsC. Exchanging ideas with other artists.D. Increasing public awareness of lung cancer.28. Which of the following can best describe Timmy?A. Proud and confident.B. Imaginative but cautious.C. Generous but self-centered.D. Determined and warm-hearted .CDo you have a business brain? Are you always looking for the next big idea? Maybe, like me, you might feel setting up a new company is something you might do when youre older, when you have more experience. But thats not always the case. While some of us may feel young adulthood is a time of uncertainly finding our place in the world, sleeping late and partying hard, others are already on a path to great business success. Take the founder of Microsoft, Bill Gates, who started his company as a young university student at Harvard in the US. There are many other examples of young entrepreneurs (企业家) who have become hugely successful, proving that theres no minimum age to becoming top dog.But to be the next business executive requires effort. You need to acquire a keen mind and good business intelligence and above all, you need enthusiasm. Starting a new business comes with an element of risk but if you are able to spot the next big idea, its probably worth giving it a try. Jessica Rose owns a jewelry making business and admits that “when I first started I had no business training but when I woke up one day, I thought Id really love to be a jewelry designer.” She went on to be a successful young entrepreneur.Being young and in business does have its drawbacks; you may worry you have nothing to bring to the table and that the people who work for you tend to be older and wiser. Thats what young British entrepreneur Suleman Sacranie found. He started his third business while studying chemistry at university. He says “now Ive got two additional directors who have grey hair” but when they first started he says he could tell they were thinking in the back of their heads, “Ive got a kid sitting in front of me.”You may think setting up a new start-up is easier said than done. As well as ideas, you need financial backing and expert guidance. But if youre studying hard at university and dont have the desire to go into business and make your fortune, keep on studying an education is priceless!29. At the very beginning, whats the authors attitude to the necessity of being aged and experienced in setting up a new company?A. Supportive.B. Negative. C. Impersonal. D. Critical.30. The author takes Jessica Rose for example in order to show that _.A. doing business needs great effortB. enthusiasm is more important than a keen mindC. business training is not necessaryD. it is easy to set up a new business31. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?A. Older directors shouldnt be employed if you are young.B. Age plays an important role in setting up new business.C. If you dont intend to set up business, just focus on your study.D. Education is more valuable than setting up a business.D“Sitting in the same classroom, reading the same textbook, listening to the same teacher, boys and girls receive very different educations.” In fact, upon entering school, girls perform equal to or better than boys on nearly every measure of achievement, but by the time they graduate from high school or college, they have fallen behind.This performance discrepancy is obvious throughout Canada. In Ontario, Education Minister Janet Ecker said that the testing results of grade 3 and grade 6 in math and reading showed that there are significant discrepancies in achievements and attitudes between boys and girls. In British Columbia, standardized testing indicates that girls perform better than boys at all levels of reading and writing, while almost matching them in math and science. But why are women less competitive after their graduation from college? The American Association of University Women published a report indicating that females receive less attention from teachers and that the attention that female students do receive is often more negative than attention received by boys. In fact, study of the social distinction of gender (性别) within schools shows that girls are improperly educated in the classroom. The social distinction of gender within our schools assures that girls are made aware that they are unequal to boys. Every time students are seated or lined up by gender, teachers are telling that girls and boys should be treated differently. When bad behaviors are more tolerated for boys than for girls because “boys will be boys”, schools are treating females unfairly. There is some evidence that girls are becoming more academically successful than boys, however, examinations of the classroom show that girls and boys continue to be socialized in ways that work against gender equality.32. The underlined word “discrepancy” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by _.A. result B. difference C. level D. study33. Females become less competitive after graduation from college because they _.A. are not as smart as malesB. do not behave well in classC. are educated in a kind wayD. receive less or bad-quality attention in class34. From the last paragraph, we can infer that _.A. boys are treated more strictlyB. boys bad behaviors are more easily acceptedC. girls are paid more attention to in classD. girls should be more successful after graduation35. What is the best title for this passage?A. The importance of education B. Different educations for boys and girlsC. Gender inequality in educationD. The distinction between boys and girls第二节（共5小题; 每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。A journalist is a person who collects, writes and distributes news or other current information. A journalist can work with general issues or specialize in certain issues. However, it is not so easy a career to be a good journalist. 36 1233 37 It is important that you can get on and work quickly and efficiently with the other technical and creative production team members. Time is very literally money in media production so there is no room for teamwork difficulties.
