university. i havent seen many of my classmates after we parted when the college entrance examination was over. so we decided to have a get-together party this summer vacation.as you can imagine, i could hardly wait to have the day for our reunion. after several months waiting, 25 of my former higher school classmates and 3 of our teachers were crowded in a small restaurant near our high school. we were more than happy to meet with each other again. our former chinese teacher was so excited that he even choked (窒息) to say some words. with gratitude, we thanked our teachers for their hard work; with great joy, we exchanged the happy things happening in each of our present colleges; we talked before someone shouted. “oh, it is 11:30 now.” but no one would be the first to say goodbye to others .i shall always bear this unforgettable get-together in my mind. with time passing, i believe i will meet many new friends, but i think the friendship among high school classmates will be the purest and will be the most valuable thing to cherish.56.what is the writer probably?a. he is a middle school student.b. he is a university student.c. he is a teacher .d. he is a reporter.57. how many

talking.c. the author preferred the life in the university to that of his high school .d. the author thought the friendship in high school was well worth treasuring.b it is obvious that television brings us not only advantages but also disadvantages . at first, television is both a convenient channel of amusement, and a relatively cheap one. if we have a tv set in the family, we are not necessary to go to the cinema or theatre to enjoy programme with expensive tickets. all that they have to do is press a button with a finger, and they can watch all the programmes they like, such as tv talk shows , movies, opera and so on. but some people think of it as a danger. when we watch tv, we dont need to do anything . we do not even have to leave our sofa because we have a remote control in our hand. we dont need to make any judgment or statement about it. we are totally passive and dont use our head to think hard about some matters. as we all know, television keeps us informed about world eventsincluding all the events in society, science and politics .we can get a good idea of the most remote countries and the strangest customs in their country. of course the radio performs this service this service too, but the effect of the programme is not better than on the television. everything we enjoy on the television is much more vivid and realistic. however, in turn there is a great danger. usually we cannot resist the television screen, because it has a great harm for us. we have been so accustomed to enjoying the screen, so dependent on its pictures. but when our tv sets are out of order, we are surprised to find that we have much more time to do things. and at this time we actually begin to have a talk to each other again. it is really worth thinking. of course the arguments about the advantages and disadvantages of television are on the go.we can not simply say television itself is good or bad. the truth is that how we use it determines its true value to our society.59. what is the main idea of the passage?a. how to make use of the television.b. the advantages and disadvantages of television.c. the benefit of the television.d.the history of the

destination of choice.” she says. chinese students are not the only ones who want to attend american colleges and universities . after china, india sends the second largest number of students to the united states for higher education. india has about 100,000 students in american schools. south korea is third with about 70,000 students. why do so many foreign students study in the united states ? peggy blumenthal provides one reason. “ the advantage america has is that we have a huge system and a very diverse (多样的) system. so there are over four thousand universities and colleges in the united states, and what it tells us is that there is still a lot of room to contain international students.”63.what is the main idea of the passage?a. more and more international students choose to receive
