Technological change is everywhere and affects every aspect of life, mostly for the better. However, social changes brought about by new technology are often mistaken for a change in attitudes.
An example at hand is the involvement of parents in the lives of their children who are attending college. Surveys (调查) on this topic suggests that parents today continue to be “very” or “somewhat” overly-protective even after their children
move into college dormitories. The same surveys also indicate that the rate of parental involvement is greater today than it was a generation ago. This is usually interpreted as a sign that today’s parents are trying to manage their children’s lives past the point where this behavior is appropriate.
However, greater parental involvement does not necessarily indicate that parents are failing to let go of their “adult” children.
In the context (背景) of this discussion, it seems valuable to first find out the cause of change in the case of parents’ involvement with their grown children. If parents of earlier generations had wanted to be in touch with their college-age children frequently, would this have been possible? Probably not. On the other hand, does the possibility of frequent communication today mean that the urge to do so wasn’t present a generation ago? Many studies show that older parents - today’s grandparents - would have called their children more often if the means and cost of doing so had not been a barrier.
Furthermore, studies show that finances are the most frequent subject of communication between parents and their college children. The fact that college students are financially dependent on their parents is nothing new; nor are requests for more money to be sent from home. This phenomenon is neither good nor bad; it is a fact of college life, today and in the past.
Thanks to the advanced technology, we live in an age of bettered communication. This has many implications well beyond the role that parents seem to play in the lives of their children who have left for college. But it is useful to bear in mind that all such changes come from the technology and not some imagined desire by parents to keep their children under their wings.
61. The surveys inform us of ______.
A. the development of technology
B. the changes of adult children’s behavior
C. the parents’ over-protection of their college children
D. the means and expenses of students’ communication
62. The writer believes that ______.
A. parents today are more protective than those in the past
B. the disadvantages of new technology outweigh its advantages
C. technology explains greater parental involvement with their children
D. parents’ changed attitudes lead to college children’s delayed Independence
63. What attitude does the writer hold towards greater parental involvement according to the last
paragraph?
A. negative B. supportive C. understandable D. sceptical
64. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Technology or Attitude B. Dependence or Independence
C. Family Influence or Social Changes D. College Management or Communication Advancement
65. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in this passage?
C
No one knew Prince Edward Street as well as Pierre Dupin. He had delivered milk to the families on the street for thirty years. For the past fifteen years a large white horse named Joseph pulled his milk wagon. Joseph was a gentle horse with
beautiful spirit shining out of its eyes, so Pierre named him after Saint Joseph.
Every morning at five, Pierre arrived at the milk company's stables to find Joseph waiting for him, Pierre would call, “Good morning, my old friend.”， as he climbed into his seat, while Joseph turned his head toward the driver. And the two would go proudly down the street. Without any order from Pierre, the wagon would roll down three streets. Then it turned right for two streets, before turning left to Saint Catherine Street. The horse finally stopped at the first house on Prince Edward Street. There, Joseph would wait perhaps thirty seconds for Pierre to get down off his seat and put a bottle of milk at the front door.
Pierre knew every one of the forty families that got milk. The cooks knew that Pierre could not read or write; so, instead of leaving orders in an empty milk bottle, they simply sang out if they needed an extra bottle.
Pierre also had a wonderful memory. When he arrived at the stable he always remembered to tell Jacques, the foreman(领班) of the stables, “The Pacquins took an extra bottle this morning; the Lemoines bought a pint of cream …” Most of the drivers had to make out the weekly bills and collect the money. But Jacques, liking Pierre, never asked him to do this.
One day the president of the milk company came to inspect the early morning milk deliveries.Jacques pointed to Pierre and said：“See how the horse listens and how he turns his head toward Pierre? See the look in that horse's eyes? You know, I think those two share a secret. I have often felt it. He is getting old. Maybe he ought to be given a rest, and a small pension.”
“But of course，” the president laughed. “He has been on this job now for thirty years. All who know him love him. Tell him it is time he rested. He will get his pay every week as before.”
But Pierre refused to leave his job. He said his life would be nothing if he could not drive Joseph every day. “We are two old men，” he said to Jacques. “Let us wear out together. When Joseph is ready to leave, then I too will do so.”
Then one cold morning Jacques had terrible news for Pierre. Jacques said，“Pierre, your horse, Joseph, didn't wake up. He was very old, Pierre.” Jacques said
softly. “He is over in his stall, looking very peaceful. Go over and see him.” Pierre took one step forward, then turned. “No … no … I cannot see Joseph again. You …， you don't understand, Jacques.”
For years Pierre had worn a large heavy cap that came down low over his eyes. It kept out the bitter cold wind. Now,__Jacques__looked__into__Pierre's__eyes__and__he__saw__something__that__shocked__him.__He__saw__a__dead,__lifeless__look__in__them.
“Take the day off, Pierre，” Jacques said. Pierre walked to the corner and stepped into the street. There was a warning shout from the driver of a big truck … there was the screech(尖锐的刹车声) of rubber tires as the truck tried to stop. But Pierre heard nothing.
Five minutes later a doctor said, “He's dead …， killed instantly.”
“I couldn't help it，” the truck driver said. “He walked in front of my truck. He never saw it, I guess. Why, he walked as though he were blind.”
The doctor bent down. “Blind？Of course, this man has been blind for five years.” He turned to Jacques, “Didn't you know he was blind？”
“No …no …” Jacques said softly. “None of us knew. Only one … only one knew－a friend of his, named Joseph … It was a secret, I think, just between those two.”
66. Why did Pierre refuse to leave his job?
A. He thought he was not old enough to retire.
B. The pension was too small to support his life.
C. He was unwilling to be separated from Joseph.
D. He wanted to get promoted to foreman.
67. Which of the following can best describe Pierre?
A. wellreceived and trustworthy B. cruel and greedy
C. sensitive and humorous D. creative and enthusiastic
68. The underlined sentences imply that ________．
A. Jacques had known the fact that Pierre was blind for a long time
B. the death of Joseph drove Pierre to despair of life
C. Pierre wanted to commit suicide because of his blindness
D. Jacques was afraid to see Pierre's empty eyes
69. Which of the following does NOT indicate Pierre's blindness?
A. Pierre knew every one of the forty families that got milk.
B. You know, I think those two share a secret. I have often felt it.
C. I cannot see Joseph again. You don't understand, Jacques.
D. For years Pierre had worn a large heavy cap that came down low over his eyes.
70. What is the best title for the passage?

What Does Teamwork Really Mean?
We often hear the word “teamwork”. But are you a team player? Understanding the question can surely promote team spirit as well as individual development. In many job interviews, a common question is whether the interviewee is a “team player”. More often than not, he or she will say “yes”. But what does being a team player
really mean?
On the most basic level, a team player is someone who can work within a group of people. This group is a number of people greater than one. Therefore it is an essential requirement of any employment that any potential employee is a team player.
On a deeper level, a team player is someone who can play a role in the team, to achieve and support the goals set and agreed upon by the team. The simplest analogy（类似）to the corporate team would be a sports team.
There are two main aims of the football team. One is to score goals and the other is to prevent the opposition team from scoring. In football, there are eleven players per side, and almost the same number of players in reserve. There are also other vital members of the team in the background, such as the coach, the doctor, etc.
Every member of the team has a very specific role - as a captain, goalkeeper. Every member of the team is vital to the success of the team. If one player does not perform to the best of his or her ability, the team is handicapped(阻碍，妨碍).
Similarly in the corporate world, each company has its clearly defined goals. Every member of the corporate team should have specific roles and responsibilities in view of achieving these goals.
Being a team player does not mean you should always agree with the rest of the team. There are times when your vision may differ from the vision of the company, the leader or the rest of the team. It may be a valid vision and if you believe in it strongly enough, you should share it with the rest of the team. If the leader is a competent one, he or she will assess it on its merits and not let ego(自我，自负) get in the way. However, if the team should not agree with your vision, don’t take it personally.
They may find the idea inappropriate, not YOU personally. Don’t take it as a sign of personal rejection. If your leader or team members see that you can handle rejection of your ideas in a mature manner, it is only to your own credit.
So, don’t be afraid to offer new ideas even seemingly crazy ones. Everyone in the team should feel free to offer ideas and not worry about them being dismissed.
The pleasure of working in an environment where every member of the team is a team
player is unparalleled. If you are not enjoying your working environment, chances are high that your team is also not working well. Ask yourself this:
Are your team objectives in line with those of the company? If not, why not?

China’s Ministry of Public Security (MPS)（中国公安部） has urged police
nationwide to strengthen checks and punishment on the motorists who do not give way to pedestrians.
During the past three years, 3,898 people were killed in 14,000 accidents happened on crosswalks in China, 90 percent of which involved motorists failing to give way to pedestrians, according to the Traffic Management Bureau of the MPS.
Traffic police should step up patrols and strengthen monitoring with surveillance cameras （摄像头）on streets, said the bureau, calling for tougher enforcement and serious punishment.
For a safer environment for pedestrians, traffic bureaus(交通局） nationwide will provide better traffic signs, install more traffic lights, and help build more underground passages or pedestrian bridges.
Beijing traffic police on Thursday began enforcing a fine of 200 yuan ($29) for motorists who fail to give way to pedestrians on crosswalks.
The violation will also result in a loss of three demerit points. When motorists loose all 12 points they must retake the driver’s license test.

第五部分 书面表达
81. One possible version：
A Chinese boy consumed a large sum of money in two years overseas. What's worse, he couldn't live on himself and didn't get a diploma eventually.
The phenomenon sets me thinking. The boy depicted in the passage is not the single case, resulting from several factors. First and foremost, there exist some parents spoiling the young and giving whatever their children want, even though their demands are irrational occasionally. In the second place, some parents focus more on children's academic performances, ignoring the education of survival skills. Last but not least, some young people are selfcentered and take it for granted that others serve them.
From where I stand, it's high time that we took some measures to cope with this problem. To begin with, parents should strike a balance between discipline and love, letting their children try something themselves. Additionally, the young should establish proper values and communicate more with others.
