developed countries the government provides free education for children because it realizes that educated citizens are useful to the country in their later life. most countries also have private (私立的)education. this means that parents can pay to send their children to certain schools. people who agree with this system say that it gives parents a larger choice of schools. other people think that private schools give the children who go to them an unfair advantage over other children.at the age of three, many children go to nursery school. two or three years later, they enter a primary school. at the age of 11 they go to a secondary school. then they may have a chance .of continuing their studies at a university or college.universities and colleges are places where some young people go to continue their education after leaving school. most university students study one main subject, though they may also study a number of others. teaching is usually by lectures, or by discussions between a lecturer and students.most students stay at university for three or four years. at the end of that, they take an examination. if they pass, they receive their bachelors degree, usually a ba, which is short for bachelor of arts, or a bs for bachelor of science. some students study for several more years in order to get higher degree, such as a ma or a phdmost university courses dont train students to do a certain job. colleges, on the other hand, usually teach skills which enable students to follow a career（职业）, such as clothing design, or business studies.56. the passage mainly tells us_.a something about the private schools in developed countriesb. how developed countries pay attention to educationc. some general information about education in developed countriesd. why education is important57. why do most developed countries provide free education to children?a. because the children don t have money to go to school.b. because the government want their citizens to be useful to the country.c. because education doesnt cost the country too much money.d. because there are not enough private schools.58. which of the following statement is true according to the passage?a. all the university students study one subject.b. after studying at the university for three or four years, all the students canget a bachelors degree.c. students usually receive a masters degree before receiving a bachelors degree.d. unlike university, colleges usually teach students some useful skills for a career.bloneliness has been linked to depression（抑郁）and other health problems. now, a study says it can also spread. a friend of a lonely person was fifty-two percent more likely to develop feelings of loneliness. and a friend of that friend was twenty-five percent more likely to do the same. earlier findings showed that happiness, obesity(肥胖) and the ability to stop smoking can also spread like infections within social groups. the findings all come from a major health study in the american town of framingham, massachusetts. the study began in 1948 to investigate the causes of heart disease. since then, more tests have been added, including measures of loneliness and depression. the new findings involved more than five thousand people in the second generation of the framingham heart study. the researchers examined friendship histories and reports of loneliness. the results established a pattern that spread as people reported fewer close friends. for example, loneliness can affect relationships between next-door neighbors. the loneliness spreads as neighbors who were close friends now spend less time together. the study also found that loneliness spreads more easily among women than men.the average person is said to experience feelings of loneliness about forty-eight days a year. the study found that having a lonely friend can add about seventeen days. but every additional friend can decrease loneliness by two and a half days.lonely people become less and less trusting of others. this makes it more and more difficult for them to make friends and more likely that society will reject（排斥）them. john cacioppo at the university of chicago led the study. he says it is important to recognize and deal with loneliness. he says people who have been pushed to the edges of society should receive help to repair their social networks. 59. as an average person, if you make 2 more friends, how many days a year might you suffer from loneliness?a. 48 days. b. 43 days. c. 65 days. d. 17 days.60. what can we infer （推断）from the passage about lonely people?a. they can overcome loneliness themselves.b. they will decrease loneliness day by day.c. they need help to get back to normal social life.d. they can help others to repair their social networks.61. whats the best way to help lonely people according to this passage?a. bring them together. b. make friends with them. c. help them stop smoking. d. help them loose weight.62. which of the following would be the best title for the passage?a. loneliness and social net work b. social networks and friendshipc. loneliness and dietd. help a lonely person cdo you often find yourself buried in lots of work and not knowing where to start? or, are you often rushing to meet deadlines（截止日期）? this is a common problem for many managers with an increasing workload. at a very important time, it makes us nervous to achieve goals on time, which in turn can hurt the quality of our work. becoming more organized in your working style can help make for a smoother sail at work.plan ahead: this is an obvious starting point, but the key is to stick to it, and to keep revising plans as things change. set both long-term plans as well as a daily list of tasks. “put things on your calendar rather than let things lead the calendar”, says ongmu gombu. “this calendar should list tasks by priority（优先）, with the most important task placing at number one,” says mr. gombu. planning ahead will help you gain a task that comes seasonally.prioritize: once you know what needs to be done, be clear about what to do first. if you need help deciding, talk to your boss. another way of prioritizing tasks is by understanding what has more impact on the business. an important part of prioritizing is to finish your work even if you have a comfortable deadline.keep cool: often your well-planned and well-prioritized list will be thrown away by an event outside your control. dont let this put you totally off track. keep yourself cool, because getting nervous and stressed about all that needs to be done will probably make you mad. take a few deep breaths, and start with the most important task first. if you cant decide one of two tasks, just pick one by throwing a coin. by doing this, you at least start moving toward your goal rather than wasting time.get help: when work comes at the same time and it seems like everything has to be done right away, seek help from your co-workers. this will ease the pressure and help you do a better job. its a two-way road, so be ready to help your co-workers in their times of need. or even better, volunteer to do so when you have time. if you are a manager, groom your team members for more senior roles and give them power to make decisions so that you can rely on them when needed.63.from the passage, we can know that _.a. planning ahead is the most important thing to finish your workb. you can pick tasks by throwing a coin whenever and whereverc. it is wise to do your tasks just on your own every timed. it is important to learn what to do first after you decide your tasks64.the passage is most likely to be chosen from a _. a. personal diary b. travel guide c. career （事业）magazine d. science report65.the underlined word “groom” in paragraph5 can be replaced (代替) by “_” a. train b. control c. lead d. praise 五、单词拼写（5分）1. the maths problem was too hard for me, so i s _ it and continued with another.2. he was too _ (尴尬的) to ask her
