21、 For many freshmen (新生), this will really be your first time to handle money on your own. You will have difficulty handling budgets. Here are some amazing tips for you.
Keep track of personal finances
【1】. This is how you become truly independent. Actually, in this case, there are now a lot of convenient APPs on your smart phone that can give you a real time image of your money and spending.
Use credit responsibly
Building credit is important, and so is opening your first credit card. 【2】. Then, look for a card with no annual fee, good rewards and a reasonable interest rate.
【3】
The easiest way to start is to save all your coins and changes every week into a savings account with no ATM card. This seemingly insignificant amount adds up over time and starts the habit of saving.
Get a flexible job
Getting a job in college is practical, because you can earn “spending money” and even save some to put toward books, supplies, and your student loans. 【4】, which have limited responsibilities. These types of work allow you to make money and finish your schooling.
Network for your future career
No money item could be more important than your network, because the quickest way to get a job is all about who you know, and not totally dependent on your grades. 【5】.
A.Learn to start saving a little each month
B.There are many on-campus jobs out there
C.The first step is to start keeping accounts for yourself
D.Ask the salespeople to explain detailed points to you
E.Open an account without delay when it’s convenient
F.But your job can have a negative effect on your study
G.This could benefit you more than opening up a credit card
22、I just thought I would share with you all something that happened to me one day when I was driving home from work.
There was a guy riding his Harley Davidson behind me. I didn’t think anything of it until I turned off the highway to head toward home and he turned off too. Then I turned into another street and he followed me again.
I was starting to feel a bit nervous especially when I turned into my own street and he followed me there too. I pulled into my driveway and he pulled up on the street in front of my house. I was feeling quite scared by then.
He was all dressed up in his bike gear and I wondered what was going on. He came up to me and said my indicator wasn't working and he was concerned for me and wanted to make sure I got to my destination ok and knew about the problem so I could get them fixed.
I thanked him for his kindness and he got back on his bike and drive off. I felt ashamed the moment he left away, for I regarded him as a bad guy at the very beginning. However, it turned out that he might have looked tough but he had a heart of gold.
I learnt an important lesson that day not to be so quick to judge people. As a matter of fact, it is often the case that we always misunderstand someone on account of our personal experience. But if all of us built a wall used as a protective fence between each other, we would live in a world filled with freezing atmosphere. So if we are followed by others, we may stop and ask “what is up?” instead of running away as quickly as possible. After all, it is trust and patience that make our community a better place to live in.

B．He was led home by a stranger.
C．He was assisted by a guy.
D．He drove off his highway.
【2】How did the author feel when getting into his own street?
A．Excited.
B．Frightened.
C．Astonished.
D．Annoyed
【3】What can we learn about the guy from the text?
A．He gets accustomed to following others.
B．He wanted to have words with the author.
C．He intended to scare passers-by.
D．He is a kind-hearted man.
【4】What is the author's attitude towards the guy?
A．Grateful.
B．Ambiguous.
C．Indifferent.
D．Controversial.
23、“All of our senses convert (转换) physical energy in the surrounding world into electrical responses. which are the common currency that the nervous system uses, “ said James Hudspeth from Rockefeller University.
Hudspeth said, “Our ears have to convert mechanical vibrations(震动)in the air into electrical responses. And the way this is done is that there are so-called hair cells. These cells have little microscopic bristles(刚毛), about a hundred of them, and on the top of each cell, these bristles vibrate back and forth in response to sound. That sets up an electrical signal that goes down a nerve fiber and into the brain. ”
Hudspeth continued, “The real question is what happens with these hair cells as they degenerate. We lose them owing to loud sounds and certain drugs, and we lose them with ag- ing. What can be done to repair them so that we can restore hearing?”
Another expert, Robert Fettiplace said, “Well, I mean there are two aspects to this, one of which is that you could try and regrow them. Almost all hearing loss is due to death of the hair cells or lack of formation of them in the first place. The cells are all different. ”
Hudspeth said, “The problems that Robert has mentioned go for mammals, including ourselves. The situation is different with other four-legged animals. But, in reptiles, including birds, this regeneration is going on all the time, like in fish. In fact, you can take a chicken to a concert, blasting its ears. They will nicely regenerate, and even with frequency- specific hair cells, they will reconnect, and the animal will be able to hear normally again. ”
Hudspeth added, “I agree that there is an enormous challenge, and this is certainly some- thing that won’t happen overnight in ourselves. But I don’t think it’s a hopeless task and I think basically what many people are trying to do is decode (解码) the signals sent as these hair cells develop, and by doing so to recognize the signaling pathways that might be reactivated the original development and restore hair cells by that means. ”
【1】How is the conversion achieved according to the text?
A．Through the brain.
B．Through hair cells.
C．Through physical energy.
D．Through certain drugs.
【2】What does the underlined word “degenerate” in paragraph 3 mean?
A．Worsen.
B．Form.
C．Proceed.
D．Extend.
【3】What does the enormous challenge mentioned in the last paragraph refer to?
A．Replacing cells.
B．Receiving signals.
C．Restoring hearing.
D．Reconnecting pathways.
【4】Which may be the best title for the text?
A．How do electrical responses work?
B．How can we decode hearing signals?
C．What results in mechanical vibrations?
D．What can animals teach hearing researchers?
24、Awesome English speakers are also great team players in conversations, which means they share the conversation. They listen, they respond, and they help others to participate as well and to enjoy themselves. 【1】 They don’t speak over the top of everyone. They’re there to participate.
However, just talking a little too much in conversations doesn’t mean someone is a bad person. 【2】 But the reason why this is especially important to you as an English learner is that you want to make sure that people enjoy talking to you when you’re speaking in English.
【3】 They talk more, find out more about you and allow you to build the relationship with them. And significantly, having more relationships means more chances for you to speak, and more chances for you to learn and to have someone to speak with regularly. 【4】
Obviously, you can’t expect random people to do that for you. 【5】 Certainly, this is not going to be easy but if you think a little more broadly about the benefits and the value of these skills and how they can help you to keep improving your English naturally, that’s interesting and valuable to you,
A．They don’t dominate the conversation.
B．That’s meaningless and a waste of time.
C．Sharing the conversation will make people want to stay.
D．It doesn’t necessarily mean he or she is a bad listener, either.
E．Thanks to this, you might build a closer relationship with them.
F．Besides sharing the conversation，you shouldn’t keep silent all the time.
G．But if you build a good relationship with someone, then it might pay off.
