The president calls on the students to make the most of the great resources on campus: to explore new subjects, to meet fascinating people, and to pursue new passions.3. By saying “sample them widely”, the president means students should try many different courses and try something new to see what it is like.4. If we dont challenge ourselves, we will not become broadly educated people, and we may not find the passion that will help us shape our future.5. We can learn from the example of Vera Wang that we should challenge ourselves, and by challenging ourselves, we are more likely to find an interest we dont know we have, and this interest may help us build a prosperous future.6. We should not worry, and we should learn to face this new part of our life with enthusiasm. College experiences, pleasant or unpleasant, will provide us with valuable lessons which enrich our life.7. The expression “Now it is your turn” means that now it is time for you to acquire knowledge and to pass it on.8. The presidents welcoming speech is really impressive. He mentions many important things about college life, the resources available on campus, as well as the responsibilities we should take. The speech is very inspiring.

Translation10.苏格拉底是古希腊哲学家，被誉为现代西方哲学的奠基人。他是一个谜一般的人物，人们主要通过后来的一些古典作家的叙述，尤其是他最著名的学生柏拉图的作品去了解他。苏格拉底以他对伦理学的贡献而闻名。他的教学法亦称为苏格拉底法，即通过提问和回答来激发批判性思维及阐述观点。该方法在各种讨论中仍被普遍使用。他还在认识和逻辑领域作出了重大而深远的贡献。他的思想和方法所带来的影响一直是后来西方哲学的坚实基础。苏格拉底是古代哲学史上最丰富多彩的人物。他在那个时代已经威名远扬。虽然他未曾建立什么哲学体系，未曾设立什么学派，也未曾创立什么宗派，但他的名字很快就变得家喻户晓了。11.Confucius was a great thinker and educator in Chinese history. He was the founder of Confucianism and was respectfully referred to as an ancient “sage”. His words and life story were recorded in The Analects. An enduring classic of ancient Chinese culture, The Analects has had a great influence on the thinkers, writers, and statesmen that came after Confucius. Without studying this book, one could hardly truly understand the thousands-of-years traditional Chinese culture. Much of Confucius thought, especially his thought on education, has had a profound influence on Chinese society. In the 21st century, Confucius thought not only retains the attention of the Chinese, but it is also wins an increasing attention from the international community.

Meantime, the father feels sad to see the child leave.2. Because it is in college that the child will find out what learning is about.3. The statement “Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school” was made by Einstein. It means that the details you have learned or the facts you have remembered are not important. What is really important is the fact that you have learned how to learn and that you have developed a way of thinking and a sense of responsibility.4. The father thinks his child should take courses that will stimulate his interest and improve his intellectual capacity.5. What Steve Jobs meant was that in college, your passion will guide you to learn a lot of new and seemingly unconnected things; but later, those unconnected things will become connected and help you build your life and career.6. The father warns his child not to be upset by low grades. They are only letters and are not important.7. Genuine and sincere people can become our friends.8. The father is eager to see what his child will develop into, and what achievements his child will make in the future.

All answers are acceptable.21) I am very close to my parents. In fact, we are like friends. I never keep a secret from them. When I have problems, I ask them for their advice. They give me directions about life. I like this relationship with my parents, and I think this is what parent-child relationship should be like.2) If I were not very close to my parents, I would do the following to improve our relationship:Find out where the problem is and talk to my parents about it; do something that makes them happy; call them often when I am away from home; keep them informed of what I am doing; care for their feelings; be open and willing to communicate. Reading comprehensionUnderstanding the text11) The daughter bought a large and expensive vehicle probably because her mother advised her to buy a practical and gas-efficient car. The daughter did this on purpose because at this age, she was being rebellious.2) The mother wants to show that although her daughter tries to show she is an adult, actually she is not.3) The mother is happy that her daughter is independent now, but on the other hand, she feels doubtful whether her daughter could take good care of herself.4) The mother wants to show that her daughter is not ready to be an adult yet.5) The mother puts her daughters books onto a single shelf to deal with later.6) The mother finds an envelope with items such as old family photographs, letters, greeting cards, and love notes they gave their daughter and sees the words “DO NOT THROW AWAY” marked on the envelope. Her attitude then changes.7) At first the mother decides to throw some of the items away and donate the rest to charity. After she sees the brown envelope, she changes her mind and puts them back in place.8) Because the mother knows that the sweet childhood memories will bring her daughter back. Critical thinking21) If I were the daughter, I would be very much touched when I read the article. I would call my mom to say sorry for acting rebelliously and would tell her how much I love her. Probably I would return home as soon as I can.2) I dont think it is wise to refuse parents advice or even do the opposite without a good reason. Your parents care about you more than anybody else and always want to share their experience with you. If you follow their advice, you can at least learn from their experience and avoid making some silly mistakes. If you dont take their advice, you may still get experience but in a hard way. Besides, your parents may directly point out your weaknesses that your peers wouldnt. So, listening to your parents advice can make you smarter and help you grow mature.3) Good communication will, in my view, help build a good relationship. The following are my ways to strengthen communication with my parents:Visit them whenever possible; invite them to see what I am doing at college; teach them to use new communication tools, such as WeChat and Skype, so that they can communicate with me wherever I am; try to look at things from their perspectives; and share with them my feelings, problems or ambitions.4) Although there is no standard pattern for a good prent-child relationship, some common factors can contribute to a more successful relationship:Respect each other; support and encourage each other; understand each other; love each other; have fun together; and be friends.5) Yes, many parents are expecting too much of their children. First, most families have only one child and parents want to make a perfect child out of them. Second, competition is intense in school and at work today. So parents want their children to learn as much as possible so as to gain advantages over others in competition. Its not uncommon that some parents force their children to achieve what is even hard for adults. But they ignore the fact that winning is not the only important thing and that children should have their own enjoyment and preferences.No, I dont think parents today are expecting too much of their children. Competition is becoming increasingly intense in school and at the workplace. So it is natural for parents to help their children to make full use of their talent and become as competitive as possible. They know better about how far their children can go . Besides, more and more parents, including my parents, think it is more important for their children to be healthy and happy. Of course, while they expect that their children study hard and achieve success, they should at the same time see to it that their children are not overworking themselves.

They may strongly object to your lifestyle and complain that you are wasting time on unimportant things. To solve this problem, you may try to make them understand that you are a responsible person. First tell them that you have inherited many of their merits. Then remind them that you have your own thoughts and life goals as an individual. You can also explain how your lifestyle will help you in a positive way. You may not be able to change your parents opinions overnight, but if you keep trying, it will eventually work. Translation10圣诞节是一个被广泛庆祝的文化节日，全世界有许许多多的人在12月25日庆祝这一节日。它是为了纪念耶稣基督的诞辰。该节日最早可追溯到公元336年。渐渐地，这一节日演变为一个既是宗教又是非宗教的节日，越来越多的非基督教徒也庆祝圣诞节。如今圣诞节在全球被作为一个重大的节日和公共假日来庆祝。不同的国家的圣诞节风俗也各不相同。现代流行的圣诞节风俗包括交换圣诞贺卡和圣诞礼物、唱圣诞歌曲、参加交谈活动、摆放各种圣诞装饰品和圣诞树、举行家庭聚会以及准备一顿特别的大餐。对小孩子们来说，这个节日充满幻想和惊喜。据传说，圣诞老人会在圣诞夜从烟囱进入每户人家，给乖巧听话的孩子带来礼物。由于圣诞节送礼物以及许多其他方面推动了基督徒和非基督徒的经济活动，圣诞节也因此成为商家的一个重要活动和主要销售季。11According to the Chinese lunar calendar, August 15 of every year is a traditional Chinese festival-the Mid-Autumn Festival. This day is the middle of autumn, so it is called Mid-Autumn. One of the important Mid-Autumn Festival activities is to enjoy the moon. On that night, people gather together to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, looking up at the bright moon and eating moon cakes. The festival is also a time for family reunion. People living far away from home will express their feelings of missing their hometowns and families at this festival, all expressing peoples love and hope for a happy life. Since 2008, the Mid-Autumn Festival has become an official national holiday in China.

If we spend too much time online, we will be cut off from the real world.5) They used the money to wire dorms with high-speed connections and equip their campuses with Wi-Fi networks.6) Because the university was afraid that its technology was not as advanced as that of other universities, it gave away free Apple iPads to compensate for its inferiority in this aspect.7) If a university cant keep up with the rest of the world, or if it cant provide high-bandwidth information as expected, it will be at a competitive disadvantage.8) It is mainly because they want to provide students with the most advance free system. Critical thinking21) Yes, I think so. Internet access is a must on campus. We students need the Internet to do research for our study, to obtain information to broaden our knowledge of the world, to communicate with family and friends, and to enrich our lives in our spare time.No, I dont think so. There are many potential disadvantages if Internet access is so easily accessible on campus. Some students may waste too much time in playing online games or chatting online, be tempted to visit “unhealthy” websites, or even become Internet-addicted and neglect their study.2) It sounds like an awful idea to me. Obtaining knowledge is only part of learning. Learning not only gives us a wealth of knowledge, it also provides us with great vision, strong principles, social abilities, good manners, interpersonal skills and many more valuable attributes. This obviously cannot be realized be learning at home only with the computer.I think it is a good idea that students can study at home via the Internet in the future. Learning would become more flexible and accessible. This way, college education could become available to many more people, old or young, near of far, healthy or handicapped.3) The
