21、People have long called college the “great equalizer,” meaning it gives students from all backgrounds the same opportunities or similar chances for success. A study announced in February 2017 supports this idea.
The findings may not come as a surprise to some. For example, it showed a degree from an “Ivy League” or another highly selective school helps students from low income families a great deal. Ivy League is a term for eight private universities in the northeastern United States. Many people consider them to be among the best for higher education in the world.
The study found that about 60 percent of the lowest income students at lvy League schools earned as much as students from the highest income families later in life. But the high cost and strong competition to attend one of these schools can be a barrier (障碍) for many students.
What may be more interesting is what less widely known colleges can do. The study identified 10 less selective universities that also helped large numbers of students escape poverty. This proves that any given college can be a tool for success.
However, there are other things to consider. The study notes that Ivy League and other top schools are less likely to admit students from low-income families. On average, a young person from the highest income background is 77 percent more likely to attend one of the highest income background is 77 percent more likely to attend one of these schools than someone from the lowest income background.
Also, while a college education may help almost everyone, higher income students still have an advantage. The students born into the highest income families still earned at least two percent more after college than anyone else. This is because people from wealthier families have more connections that can help their children.
【1】What finding attracts the author’s more attention?
A．Non-famous schools also benefit students.
B．t is quite competitive to enter famous schools.
C．College education has great effects on students.
D．Ordinary schools do better than well-known ones.
【2】What is unfairness of the lvy League and other top schools?
A．They bring too much stress on students.
B．They charge too much for education.
C．They look down upon poor students.
D．They offer more chances to the rich.
【3】What factor mentioned in the text can affect a student’s income?
A．College major courses.
B．Different universities.
C．Family background.
D．Records of study.
【4】What is the best title of this text?
A．You Don’t have to Choose the Most Famous Schools
B．Does a College Education Help All People Equally?
C．Is College Education a Must For Poor Students?
D．Well-Known Universities Help You Succeed

23、It’s OK to say you’ve never heard of grime—unless you’re from the UK. That’s because this music was invented in the UK in the early 2000s.
To someone who’s not familiar with underground music culture, it’s easy to get confused between hip-hop and grime since they are both noisy. And many people didn’t bother to tell them apart, until earlier this month when grime stars like Stormzy and J Hus led this year’s Mobo— “music of black origin”—award nominations (提名) in the UK.
Just like UK electronic music and hip-hop, from which grime drew influence, it mostly reflects the thoughts of young people. But different from hip-hop, grime singers sing in dialects with strong accents, giving a special flavor to their songs.
Lady Leshurr, known as the "Grime Queen said that she once tried to hide her accent, as she didn’t want people to judge her. But one day, she realized that she didn’t need to change herself just to please others. And there’s no doubt that this is the most basic and important quality of grime music: be yourself.
Also different from the hip-hop culture, which usually focuses on being rich, grime singers pay more attention to social phenomena (现象) like the European refugee (难民) problem and the gap between the rich and poor.
Although still quite young, grime seems to be getting favored by more and more people. In 2016, the English grime artist Skepta won the Mercury Prize with his album Konnichiwa, beating big names like David Bowie and Radiohead. However, no matter whether grime is one day accepted by the mainstream music world or not, one thing is for sure: in grime, singers always stay true to themselves.
【1】What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Electronic music. B. Hip-hop.
C. Grime music. D. Black music.
【2】What can be learned about grime singers?
A. They care too much about themselves.
B. They refuse to be judged by others.
C. They tend to take social responsibility.
D. They show strong independence qualities.
【3】What does Skepta’s success suggest?
A. Grime is gradually getting recognized.
B. Singers should try to be themselves.
C. Grime has become mainstream music.
D. It is easy to win the Mercury Prize.
24、Can you be too beautiful? It is hardly a problem that most of us have to bother — as much as we might like to dream that it were the case.
Yet the blessings and curses of beauty have been a long-standing interest in psychology. Do those blessed with shiny faces and an attractive body live in a cloud of appreciation — or does it sometimes pay to be ordinary?
At the most basic level, beauty might be thought to carry a kind of halo (光环) around it; we see that someone has one good quality, and by association, our deep mind may assume that they have other good ones too.
Even in the courts, a pleasing appearance can work its magic. Attractive criminals are likely to get less strict sentences, or to escape punishment entirely; attractive plaintiffs (原告), meanwhile, are more likely to win their case and get bigger financial settlements. “It’s an effect seen everywhere,” says Walker.
But if beauty pays in most circumstances, there are still situations where it can have opposite results. While attractive men may be considered better leaders, for instance, hidden sexist prejudices (偏见) can work against attractive women, making them less likely to be hired for high-level jobs that require power. And as you might expect, good-looking people of both sexes run into envy — one study found that if you are interviewed by someone of the same sex, they may be less likely to employ you if they judge that you are more attractive than they are.
More worryingly, being beautiful or handsome could harm your medical care. We tend to link good looks to health, meaning that illnesses are often taken less seriously when they affect the good-looking. When treating people for pain, for instance, doctors tend to take less care over the more attractive people.
Ultimately, scientists point out that focusing too much on your appearance can itself be harmful if it creates stress and anxiety — even for those already blessed with good looks. “If you are crazy about attractiveness, it may affect your experience and interactions,” she says. It’s an outdated saying, but no amount of beauty can make up for a bad personality. As the writer Dorothy Parker put it so elegantly: “Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone.”
【1】From paragraph 1, we can learn that _______.
A. some may be bothered by their unattractive appearance
B. most people are not afraid of being too beautiful
C. we might always dream about being bothered by others
D. being too beautiful can be a problem bothering everyone
【2】Which is the benefit for beautiful people?
A. All attractive plaintiffs have more chances to get away with punishment.
B. Women with pleasing appearance will always be considered as better leaders.
C. Good-looking people are often regarded as having many good qualities.
D. Beautiful criminals are more likely to persuade the judge and win the case.
【3】The writer mentioned the underlined sentence in the last paragraph to _______.
A. persuade us to pay more attention to our looks from now on
B. suggest that beauty can help make a better personality
C. encourage us to focus more on improving our personality
D. ask ugly people to have more confidence in their personality
【4】What might be the best title for the passage?
A. Beauty, a blessing? B. Sexist Prejudice.
C. Real beauty. D. Benefits Beauty holds.
