21、 Going to college was not optional. In my family, it was just another step toward the American dream. As soon as I graduated, I enrolled (入学)in the English Department of Colorado State University. I went on to earn two scholarships, and membership in the National Honor Society. I truly believed the hard work was worth it.
It wasn't until a few months ago that I realized how clueless I was. I had been combing through the classifieds when my eyes fell upon my dream job: “National College Magazine looking for writers ”.
Thrilled, I spent the weekend composing a resume . Needless to say, I was stunned when the interviewer barely took one glance before throwing it aside.
"No experience," he said flatly.
I felt like screaming, "What do you mean, no experience? Look at these grades."
I was left to absorb the shock of rejection, thinking that nobody ever told me that a 4. 0 student would be turned down for a job.
Didn't all of my hard work count for anything?
I see plenty of demands for two years of experience at a print publication, but none requiring extensive knowledge of how to write academic papers. Yet 95% of my energy in school went toward the latter, leaving me little time to devote to anything else. If career preparation is supposed to be the point of college, then why isn't it the focus?
Has a college degree just become another societal status symbol like fancy cars or designer clothes?
Given my experience, I feel that a college degree would be a lot more valuable if students were required to get some outside experience to supplement their in — class knowledge. Instead of requiring four science classes, why not three science classes and an internship? In my college career, I took one class that taught me how to write and submit essays for publication. This ever — so — brief taste of the real world was like holding an ice cream sundae in front of a child and only giving her a small bite.

23、 The hemlock(铁杉) trees along the Wappinger Creek, New York, look healthy. However, scientist Gary Lovett says the white balls which provide protection for the bugs are created by a tiny insect. It’s hard to believe the tiny bug could kill a tree. However, trees can end up with millions and millions of the pests. When there are that many, it ends up killing the tree.
The bug from East Asia is slowly killing trees across the USA. The trouble－making bug is just one of many invasive(入侵的) pests that have slipped into the United States. They can hurt other living things in their new home.
Many invasive pests arrive on wooden pallets piled inside shipping containers. They support and separate goods, and keep them from sliding around. Invasive pests often tunnel into the pallets. How can we stop pests from riding on pallets? Lovett says new rules are needed. The companies that make pallets don’t want more rules. Congress has added an amendment(修正案) in the 2018 Farm Bill to try and prevent this problem. However, Lovett is not hopeful it will make much of a difference. Pallets are checked by inspectors. Many are sprayed with bug－killing pesticide. “I believe in the system，” said Brent McClendon, president of The National Wooden Pallet and Container Association. He also said shipping containers are checked very carefully.
Still, each year 13 million containers are shipped to the U.S. Each is full of wooden pallets. Lovett says: “Inspectors can’t possibly check everything. All it takes are a few bad pallets; we should get rid of wooden pallets.” He believes pallets should be made of plastic or eco－composite wood. Eco－composite wood is a mix of wood fiber and plastic. Insects cannot hide into it. One problem is that these choices cost more. They may be worth the extra money, though. Invasive pests cost the U.S. $5 billion a year. Trees don’t just die in forests. They also die in cities and our yards. Then, they need to be replaced. That costs money, too.
【1】All the statements are TRUE except that ________.
A. pesticide has been applied to bug－killing
B. invasive pests are native to Wappinger Creek
C. invasive pests hide in pallets used in shipping
D. the companies making pallets don’t want more rules
【2】What can we infer from the passage?
A. Bugs can be easily spotted by eyes.
B. Bugs ruin the shipping goods slowly.
C. Bugs won’t bother the tree if just in few numbers.
D. Bugs cover trees with white soft balls for protection.
【3】Why does Gary Lovett want to get rid of wooden pallets?
A. Because insects mostly die in them.
B. Because plastic pallets are eco－friendly.
C. Because they are not worth extra money.
D. Because they are the major pest carriers.
【4】What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Invasive pests are harming plants in the USA.
B. Effective measures have stopped the pest invasion.
C. Congress contributes a lot to dealing with invasive pests.
D. Ecosystem in the USA is poorly damaged by invasive woods.
24、Australia’s Great Barrier Reef (大堡礁) has been hit by continuous heat. Too hot ocean temperatures, as high as 7 degrees Fahrenheit above average, have attacked the reef in recent weeks even though autumn normally means cooler conditions. Scientists with Australian government agencies said some parts of the reef were turning white as a result.
When temperatures rise, corals lose their important roommates: the symbiotic algae (共生藻) that live inside corals and produce their primary source of food. Those algae give corals their colors but get expelled (排出) during periods of heat stress, causing the corals to turn white. “If the water temperature decreases, corals that are affected can recover from this stress,” said David Wachenfeld, chief scientist of Australia’s Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority. “However, weather forecasts show ocean temperatures will likely remain above average in the next few weeks.”
The reef has been experiencing warm temperatures. The consequence was severe. After a number of corals turned white in 2016 and 2017, large parts of the Great Barrier Reef lost half of their live corals. Reefs around the world are experiencing similar climate—related damage. A worldwide research found that between 2009 and 2021, 14 percent of the world’s corals died. And another similar event raided many places, which worsened the situation in 2022.
Scientists are trying to find ways to give corals a fighting chance, like searching for reefs that could act as shelters because they experience naturally cool water. Others are raising heat resistant corals. Of course, countries must reduce fossil fuel emissions (燃料排放) over the next decade. Even if the world can limit warming to 1.5℃, 70 to 90 percent of coral reefs are likely to die off. “We need to really learn from these events,” Emily Darling, director of coral reef conservation at the Wildlife Conservation Society, said. “We need to change the current businesses. We need to take action on climate change.”
