23、 The new president of Harvard University is the son of an Eastern European refugee and Auschwitz (奥斯威辛) survivor — Lawrence S. Bacow. His father worked full time while attending a state college in Detroit at night to earn his degree.
Bacow, the former president of Tufts University, has taken over Harvard at a time when higher education is under attack for being financially out of reach to many Americans. But Bacow said his family’s journey had reflected the power of college education to transform generations and the opportunities that have historically been available in the United States.
“My parents came to this country with almost nothing,” Bacow said. “I wouldn’t be here if this country had not been open to people like my parents at that time. Nor would I if my father hadn’t had the opportunity to get the college education.”
Bacow grew up in Pontiac, Michigan. His father’s family fled anti-Jewish (反犹太的) violence in Minsk, then part of the Soviet Union, before the start of World War II and went to the United States. His mother arrived in Brooklyn at age 19, having survived Auschwitz concentration camp. She was the only Jew from her town to have survived the war. Yet Bacow, who is married with two sons, said that while growing up in Michigan, he had a happy childhood, entering science fairs as a child and building radios like his dad.
Bacow has spent most of his professional career at MIT, Harvard and Tufts. He was a professor of environmental studies at MIT, and later a principal at the university. He led Tufts from 2001 to 2011. At Tufts, Bacow earned a reputation for shaking up a sleepy university that was being overshadowed by its peers in Boston. He is also credited with leading it through both 9/11 and the 2008 financial crisis.
As the Tufts president, Bacow traveled around the country, reaching out to alumni (校友), and he urged his faculty and deans to do the same, in an effort to boost donations to finance Tufts’ academic ambitions. He raised more than $20 million for faculty recruitment, attracting up-and-coming professors by offering junior faculty perks (福利), such as long academic leaves that they couldn’t get elsewhere.
Under Bacow’s leadership, Tufts spent millions on labs and libraries. He also made addresses nationally about the need to make higher education more accessible and affordable to low-income students.
【1】The reason why Bacow appreciates college education is that .
A. college education is out of reach to many Americans
B. his family changed their fate due to college education
C. few opportunities were available when his father came into the country
D. a college degree helped his mother survive Auschwitz
【2】What can we infer from the passage?
A. The fellow townspeople of Bacow were all killed besides his mother.
B. Bacow’s mother stimulated his interest in science.
C. Bacow’s father was good at working with electronics.
D. Bacow’s father came to the U.S. after World War II broke out.
【3】The underlined word “shaking up” in paragraph 5 probably means .
A. reactivating B. causing C. damaging D. taking over
【4】What is this passage mainly about?
A. How to be admitted to Harvard University. B. The history of Bacow’s family.
C. The art of Bacow’s leadership in Tufts. D. Bacow’s way to individual success.
24、 Are you happy? Most of the time, we make it hard to enjoy our lives by pursuing something that seems impossible. Happiness is possible for us all. First, we have to define what happiness is, and then reframe it if necessary.
For many, they have never-ending restrictions. I know this because I did so. I would think if only this would happen then I will finally be happy. When the great event happened, however, I didn't take the time to enjoy the moment. I just added another restriction and continued to dream of something I would never attain.
In my view, happiness is not an event nor a person. It is not a material thing, success, nor money. For me, it is gratitude. When I find the feeling of gratitude, then I find the joy. I don't make it complicated, nor take it out of my own control. I don’t put my ability to be joyful in someone else's hands.
Every day I look for things to be thankful for. I take a moment to enjoy the sunrise and sunset and give as many smiles and hugs as I can in one day. If I can’t be happy with what already have, then I wouldn’t be happy with more. I love finding the joy in simple things. When we remove the unnecessary limitations and expectations from our lives, then we open our hearts to receive more.
Recording my blessings in a gratitude journal helps me to see my life with new understanding. When I take time to thank God for all the blessing I have, I realize that I have everything that I need. I don’t spend much of my life complaining and crying about what I don’t have. Instead, I am grateful for what I have. When I change my thought process and feel gratitude. The greatest gifts in life can't be bought, or even be seen — they must be felt in our hearts.
【1】Why are we unhappy?
A.We don’t have aims in life.
B.We cannot get what we want.
C.We don’t know what happiness is.
D.We always want to achieve better results.
【2】According to author, the key to happiness is being________.
A.thankful B.imaginative
C.wealthy D.simple-minded
【3】What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A.How the author found pleasure in small things.
B.How the author spent his spare time.
C.What the author cared more about.
D.What the author did to be happy.
【4】What is the message the author tries to convey to readers?
A.A thankful heart is a happy heart.
B.Greed is so destructive. It destroys everything.
C.Sometimes it is difficult to realize that life is so simple.
D.You'll never find peace of mind until you listen to your heart.
25、It happened a month after I began teaching in the US. I had to _______ the class schedule. “We’ll need to prepone the quiz,” I said, preparing for the groans (咕哝) from my students. Instead, there was a total _______.
I looked around to see _______ expressions on their faces—that look of “I have NO idea what you just said,” which stops any teacher mid--lecture to _______ a concept further.
It was then that I found out that “prepone” was not a(n) _______ word in English dictionaries. I believed that prepone mean the _______ of postpone—moving an event to an earlier time rather _______ an event. So when I realized it wasn’t “proper” English, I was _______. It was a great _______ in my linguistic (语言的) self- image.
