The audience burst into deafening cheers, whistling and clapping.It was as if a Hollywood superstar had walked on stage. And indeed, every single senior that day was a star of the once-in-a-lifetime momentthe commencement.Seated, I waited anxiously for the opening address. As a foreign exchange student, I was not able to receive a diploma. However, I still had the wonderful feeling of being part of things. Like the other graduates, I was dressed in marron cap and gown(方帽长袍).Our principal, Mr. Glover, delivered a short, warm greeting. The US national anthem followed and then, hands on chests, a solemn Pledge of Allegiance(对美国的忠孝宣誓).Students who had excelled academically gave farewell speeches. Then came the core (核心) of the commencement. Hundreds of names were announced. Each graduate walked across the stage to receive his or her diploma from the principal. From the different cheers each graduate got, we had the funny sense that it was a kind of competition of who could cheer the loudest.To be honest, the presentation of diplomas got boring. But it wasnt boring for those receiving the diploma: they would treasure the moment the principal placed the sacred brown document in their hands for the rest of their lives.A new page in the book of that persons life had turned. They were glimpsing their futures: futures of challenge, hardship, perhaps loneliness too, which would take all of their courage.56. Whats the article mainly about?A. An American high schools graduation ceremony.B. The opening ceremony of a sports meeting.C. A presentation of college diplomas.D. A US colleges farewell party.57. Which of the following statements about the author is FALSE?A. She was one of the graduates. B. She was a foreign exchange student.C. She was excited to receive her diploma. D. She felt it great to be at the ceremony.58. The right order of the following events is_.a. Diplomas were presented to graduates. b. Students gave farewell speeches.c. The US national anthem was played. d. The principal gave a short, warm speech.e. Seniors went into the stadium.A. b-c-a-d-e B. c-d-b-e-a C. d-b-e-a-c D. e-d-c-b-a59. From the text, we can conclude that_.A. a diploma ensures a good jobB. a diploma guarantees a bright futureC. the commencement symbolizes the beginning of a new stage in lifeD. everyone felt excited at the presentation of the diplomaBAnthony was sad. He was, as he put it, “not very bright” and couldnt win the attention of his very wealthy parents, who preferred his “clever” older brother. At age 8, Anthony was sent away to a boarding school in his native England, even though he screamed and pleaded with（恳求）his parents year after year not to send him. “The thought was it would be good for me,” he recalled.It was not. Anthony did badly in his studies, had few friends and was bullied for five years. “My teachers couldnt have had a lower opinion of me,” he said. “I wasnt even smart enough to rebel. The one thing I remember from the very earliest age was the desire to write. When I was 10 years old, I remember asking my parents to get me a typewriter for my birthday because I wanted to be a writer.”Now, at 55, Anthony is one of the worlds most successful childrens book authors. His Alex Rider series has sold more than 5 million copies, and the eighth book featuring the young spy, Crocodile Tears, has come out.The Alex Rider books tell the adventures of 14-year-old Alex Rider, an agent for the British intelligence agency M16.Anthony says he doesnt try to write for kids; it just comes out that way. “I have a feeling that it has something to do with purity and simplicity. I give as little information as is necessary to describe the room, the character in the room, and get on with the action,” he said.The style has also made Anthony a successful writer of television shows for adults in Britain because, he says, writing books for kids is a lot like writing television for grown-ups: In both cases, its all about entertaining people with a good story.Now, Anthony couldnt be happier with his life. He sums up his success: “you can be anything you want to be if you just believe in yourself. I do believe it completely.”60. Which of the following is true of Anthony?A. He was the beloved child of his family.B. Although he is successful, he isnt very happy.C. He places more emphasis on the characters behavior in his stories.D. Studying in a boarding school proved a good choice for him.61. At boarding school, Anthonys teachers_.A. often criticized him.B. showed great concern for him.C. encouraged him to be a writer.D. thought little of his ability.62. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Anthonys popular booksAlex Rider seriesB. Alex Rider, a popular characterC. Anthony, a successful childrens book authorD. Special writing style63. What advice does Anthony give to readers?A. Confidence is the key to success.B. Hardship teaches valuable lessons.C. Internet is the best teacher.D. Failure is the mother of success.CIncreasingly, Americans are becoming their own doctors, by going online to diagnose their symptoms, order home health tests or medical devices, or even self-treat their illnesses with drugs from Internet pharmacies(药店). Some avoid doctors because of the high cost of medical care, especially if they lack health insurance. Or they may stay because they find it embarrassing to discuss their weight, alcohol consumption or couch potato habits. Patients may also fear what they might learn about their health, or they distrust physicians because of negative experiences in the past. But playing doctor can also be a deadly game.Every day, more than six million Americans turn to the Internet for medical answers. Most of them arent nearly skeptical enough of what they find. A 2002 survey by the Pew Internet & American Life Project found that 72 percent of those surveyed believe all or most of what they read on health websites. They shouldnt. Look up “headache”, and the chances of finding reliable and complete information, free from a motivation for commercial gain, are only one in ten, reports an April 2005 Brown Medical School study. Of the l69 websites the researchers rated, only l6 scored as “high quality”. Recent studies found faulty facts about all sorts of other disorders, causing one research team to warn that a large amount of incomplete, inaccurate and even dangerous information exists on the Internet.The problem is that most people dont know the safe way to surf the Web. “They use a search engine like Google, get l8 trillion choices and start clicking. But thats risky, because almost anybody can put up a site that looks authoritative(权威的), so its hard to know whether what youre reading is reasonable or not, ” says Dr. Sarah Bass from the National Cancer Institute.64.
