education sociologist jens peter thomsen, who is one of the researchers behind the study.the study “the educational strategies of danish university students from professional and working-class backgrounds” is _47_ 60 interviews with danish students from six different university level study programmes: medicine, architecture, sociology, economy, pharmacy and business studies.the young people bring with them the _48_ they get from their families. if you grow up in a home with parents who are doctors or architects with a strong professional _49_, it is an obvious choice to follow the _50_ path as your parents when you grow up.“for young people whose parents are university educated, _51_ such as fame and mastery of expert knowledge are important. they are _52_ by an educational culture in which you are a diligent student, and where leisure activities are _53_ to the identity that lies within your studies. these young people have also grown up with _54_ discussions around the dinner table which also prepare them for their lives as students,” says jens peter thomsen. he also added, “young people who come from a working class background, and have good grades have to _55_ the full

the uk today, deciding whether or not to go to university can be as much about affordability as it is about ambition and aspiration.in the past, students in the uk could apply to a university or college. they were sure that even if they came from a low income family, their tuition fees and some of their living (or maintenance) costs would be covered by a local authority grant(拨款). a university education was, in a financial sense, open to all and the number of students attending university grew yearly.sadly, it seems, those days are long gone. the turning point came in 1998, when the labour government introduced tuition fees of 1,000 a year and, instead of giving students a maintenance grant, asked them to cover their own living expenses with a repayable student loan. only students on the lowest incomes were entitled to a grant.the flood gates had been opened. as time passed, the ceiling on tuition fees rose, and although applicants from scotland, northern ireland and wales still qualified for varying levels of subsidy(补贴), by 2009/10 students in england often found themselves facing tuition fees over3,000 a year.in 2011 the government announced that, from 2012, universities could charge fees of up to 9,000 a year. although the government sweetened the pill by stating that postgraduates did not have to begin repaying their student loans until they were earning more than 21,000 a year, the news created over-dissatisfaction. many students argued that it was unfair that students should have to begin their work life loaded with huge debt, while others complained that the changes would bring back a class divide to university education. these views were reflected in the number of students applying for a university place, which by january 2012 fell by more than 22,000. the universities minister, david willetts, stood by the decision to increase tuition fees, saying that they would not “put universities finance on a bearable footing” and that they would accelerate “a stronger focus on high quality teaching.”56. we can put the sentence “but the biggest change was still to come” at the beginning of paragraph _.a. 2 b. 3 c. 4 d. 557. what attitude does the author have towards the change about university education fees?a. supportive. b. opposed. c. indifferent. d. neutral.bon december 14, nasa (national aeronautics and space) blasted a small but mighty telescope into space. the telescope is called wise and is about as wide around as a trashcan. dont let its small size fool you: wise has a powerful digital camera, and it will be taking pictures of some the wildest objects in the known universe, including asteroids, faint stars, blazing galaxies and giant clouds of dust where planets and stars are born.“im very excited because were going to be seeing parts of the universe that we havent seen before,” said ned wright, a scientist who directs the wise project.since arriving in space, the wise telescope has been circling the earth, held by gravity in a polar orbit(this means it crosses close to the north and south poles with each lap(一圈).its camera is pointed outward, away from the earth, and wise will snap a picture of a different part of the sky every 11 minutes. after six months it will have taken pictures across the entire sky.the pictures taken by wise wont be like everyday digital photographs, however. wise stands for “wide-field infrared survey explorer.” as its name suggests, the wise camera takes pictures of features that give off infrared radiation (红外线辐射).radiation is energy that travels as a wave. visible light, including the familiar spectrum of light(光谱) that becomes visible in a rainbow, is an example of radiation. when an ordinary digital camera takes a picture of a tree, for example, it receives the waves of visible light that are reflected off the tree. when these waves enter the camera through the lens, theyre processed by the camera, which then puts the image together.waves of infrared radiation are longer than waves of visible light, so ordinary digital cameras dont see them, and neither do the eyes of human beings. although invisible to the eye, longer infrared radiation can be detected as warmth by the skin.thats a key idea to why wise will be able to see things other telescopes cant. not everything in the universe shows up in visible light. asteroids, for example, are giant rocks that float through spacebut they absorb most of the light that reaches them. they dont reflect light, so they are difficult to see. but they do give off infrared radiation, so an infrared telescope like wise will be able to produce images of them. during its mission wise will take pictures of hundreds of thousands of asteroids.brown dwarfs(褐矮星)are another kind of deep-space object that will show up in wises pictures. these objects are “failed” starswhich means they are not massive enough to jump start the same kind of reactions that power stars such as the sun. instead, brown dwarfs simply shrink and cool down. theyre so dim that theyre almost impossible to see with visible light, but in the infrared spectrum they glow. 58. what is so special about wise?a. its digital camera can help astronomers to see the unknown space.b. it is as small as a trashcan.c. it is small in size but carries a large camera.d. never before has a telescope carried a digital camera in space.59. the camera on wise _.a. is not different from an ordinary camerab. does not see infrared radiation while the ordinary camera doesc. reflects light that human eyes can seed. catches the infrared radiation while the ordinary camera does not 60. which of the following is not correct about “asteroids” according to paragraph 7?a. asteroids do not reflect light that reaches them.b. asteroids float through space giving off visible light.c. it is difficult to take asteroids pictures by ordinary cameras.d. the wise telescope can take pictures of asteroids.61. what is implied in the last paragraph?a. brown dwarfs give off visible light.b. brown dwarfs are power stars like the sun.c. brown dwarfs give off infrared radiation.d. brown dwarfs are impossible to see with the wise telescope.cclimate change could affect food supplies, water resources, human health and homes.if greenhouse gas emissions keep increasing at the current rate, global temperature is expected to rise between 2c and 6c by 2100. this doesnt sound much, but a 5c change is the difference between the current warm period and an ice age. global warming leads to other changes in the climate: melting ice, more evaporation(蒸发), changes in geographical patterns of rainfall, heavier downpours separated by longer dry spells, more frequent heat waves, more intense hurricanes, and sea level rise. these changes could affect crop growth as drought, increased evaporation and shrinking glaciers(冰川) disrupt water supply. some crops could suffer heat stress. while there may be benefits in some regions, overall climate change is likely to have a negative impact on global food supplies. the impacts of climate change on agriculture will vary widely around the world. a global temperature rise of 12 c is expected to increase food production in some regions, particularly mid-latitude areas. but in tropical regions even a small amount of warming could reduce crop yields. a temperature rise of 3 c or more could threaten global food resources, as all regions are likely to experience negative impacts overall.freshwater resources could also diminish, especially in tropical regions, as rain patterns change and evaporation speeds up. some communities could lose essential melt water as glaciers disappear, while more intense rainfall and hurricanes could cause more flooding, leading to water pollution and bacterial diseases such as cholera(霍乱) becoming more widespread. climate change
