without the slightest doubt. all high school graduates ought to go, says conventional wisdom and statistical evidence, because college will help them earn more money, become “better” people, and learn to be more responsible citizens than those who dont go. but college has never been able to work its magic for everyone. and now that close to half our high school graduates are attending, those who dont fit the pattern are becoming more numerous, and more obvious. college graduates are selling shoes and driving taxis; college students interfere with each others experiments and write false letters of recommendation in the fierce competition so as to get admitted into graduate schools. others find no stimulation (激励) in their studies, and consequently have to drop out, which is often encouraged by college administrators. some observers say the fault is with the young people themselves-they are spoiled and they are expecting too much. but thats a condemnation（谴责）of the students as a whole, and doesnt explain all campus unhappiness. others blame the state of the world, and they are partly right. we have been told that young people have to go to college because our economy cant absorb an army of untrained eighteen-year-olds. but disappointed graduates are learning that it can no longer absorb an army of trained twenty-two-year-olds, either. some campus watchers have openly begun to suggest that college may not be the best, the proper, the only place for every young person after the completion of high school. we may have been looking at all those surveys and statistics upside down, it seems, and through the rosy(玫瑰般的) glow of our own remembered college experiences. perhaps college doesnt make people intelligent,ambitious, happy,liberal, or quick to learn thingsmaybe it is just the other way around, and intelligent, ambitious, happy, liberal, quick-learning people are merely the ones who have been attracted to college in the first place. and perhaps all those successful college graduates would have been successful whether they had gone to college or not. this is heresy (异端邪说) to those of us who have been brought up to believe that if a little schooling is good, more has to be much better. but contrary evidence is beginning to come up.55. according to the first paragraph, _. a. people now no longer challenge college education. b. people still have a low opinion of college education. c. the author thinks youngsters should all go to college. d. people have great expectations for college education.56. more young people drop out of college because _. a. they are no longer motivated in their studies. b. they can start selling shoes and driving taxis. c. they compete for admission to graduate schools. d. college administrators encourage them to do so.57. who does the author think is to blame for campus unhappiness? a. young students who are all spoiled and expecting too much. b. our society that cant offer enough jobs to college graduates. c. our society that has not enough jobs for high school graduates. d. young people as well as our society are to blame for all this.bbone of the greatest contributors to the first oxford english dictionary was also one of its most unusual. in 1879, oxford university in england asked prof. james murray to serve as editor for what was to be the most ambitious dictionary in the history of the english language. it would include every english word possible and would give not only the definition but also the history of the word and quotations(引文)showing how it was used. this was a huge task, so murray had to find volunteers from britain, the united states, and the british colonies to search every newspaper, magazine, and book ever written in english. hundreds of volunteers responded, including william chester minor. dr. minor was an american surgeon who had served in the civil war and was now living in england. he gave his address as “broadmoor, crowthorne, berkshire，” 50 miles from oxford. minor joined the army of volunteers sending words and quotations to murray. over the next 17 years, he became one of the staffs most valued contributors. but he was also a mystery. in spite of many invitations, he would always decline to visit oxford. so in 1897, murray finally decided to travel to crowthorne himself. when he arrived, he found minor locked in a booklined cell at the broadmoor asylum(精神病院)for the criminally insane. murray and minor became friends, sharing their love of words. minor continued contributing to the dictionary, sending in more than 10,000 submissions in 20 years. murray continued to visit minor regularly, sometimes taking walks with him around the asylum grounds. in 1910, minor left broadmoor for an asylum in his native america. murray was at the port to wave goodbye to his remarkable friend.minor died in 1920, seven years before the first edition of the oxford english dictionary was completed. the 12 volumes defined 414,825 words, and thousands of them were contributions from a very scholarly and devoted asylum patient.61. according to the text, the first oxford english dictionary _.a. came out before minor diedb. was edited by

unhappiness. others blame the state of the world, and they are partly right. 但是，总得来说，这只是对学生的一种谴责，而无法解释所有的校园不幸。其他人则会怪罪于现状，当然这也并不全错。”可判断出作者认为大学校园不幸是学生和社会造成的。58. c。解析：细节题 根据最后一段第二句we may have been looking at all those surveys and statistics upside down, it seems, and through the rosy(玫瑰般的) glow of our own remembered college experiences. 也许我们一直都颠倒地看待了调查与统计的数据，这也似乎都是源于我们自己记忆中的美好的绚丽多彩的大学生活59.
