It is not easy ta become a doctor in the United States. The first step is getting into a medical college. More than one hundred and twenty American schools offer study programs for people wanting to be doctors.
People can get advice about medical schools from many resources. One of these is the Princeton Review. The publication provides information about colleges, study programs and jobs.
The Princeton Review says the competition to enter medical schools is strong. American medical schools have only about sixteen thousand of openings. But more than thirty-two thousand students may try it. Many of those are women.
Most applicants contact more than one medical school. Some contact many. An important part of the application usually is the Medical College Admission Test which is called MCAT. The Association of American Medical Colleges provides the test by computer. It is offered in the United States and other countries.
The people who want to enter medical schools are rated(评定)on reasoning, physical and biological sciences and an example of writing. Applicants for medical schools need to do well on the MCAT. They also need a good record in their college studies.
Some students work for a year or two in a medical or research job before they attempt to enter a medical school.
25. Which of the following is NOT true about the Princeton Review?
A. It can give us advice about medical schools.
B. It is a great resource for people who want to became doctors.
C. It can provide us information about study programs.
D. It provides the MCAT test.
26. The underlined word “those” in the third paragraph refers to ______.
A. people who want to be doctors
B. people who want to enter a medical school
C. people who are tested by MCAT
D. doctors in the United States
27. What is the main idea of the passage?

D. How to get into a medical school.
C
When I was seven my father gave me a Timex ,my first watch. I loved it, wore it for years, and haven’t had another one since it stopped ticking a decade ago. Why? Because I don’t need one. I have a mobile phone and I’m always near someone with an iPod or something like that. All these devices(装置)tell the time—which is why, if you look around, you’ll see lots of empty wrists; sales of watches to young adults have been going down since 2007.
But while the wise have realized that they don’t need them, others-apparently including some distinguished men of our time—are spending total fortunes on them. Brands such as Rolex, Patek Philippe and Breitling command shocking prices, up to £250,000 for a piece.
This is ridiculous. Expensive cars go faster than cheap cars. Expensive clothes hang better than cheap clothes. But these days all watches tell the time as well as all other watches. Expensive watches come with extra functions-but who needs them? How often do you dive to 300 meters into the sea or need to find your direction in the area around the South Pole? So why pay that much of five years’ school fees for watches that allow you to do these things?
If justice were done, the Swiss watch industry should have closed down when the Japanese discovered how to make accurate watches for a five-pound note. Instead the Swiss reinvented the watch, with the aid of millions of pounds’ worth of advertising, as a message about the man wearing it. Rolexes are for those who spend their weekends climbing icy mountains: a Patek Philippe is for one from a rich or noble family: a Breitling suggests you like to pilot planes across the world.
Watches are now classified as “investments”(投资). A 1994 Philippe recently sold for nearly £350,000,while 1960s Rolexes have gone from £15.000 to £30,000 plus in a year. But a watch is not an investment. It’s a toy for self-satisfaction, a matter of fashion. Prices may keep going up—they’ve been rising for 15 years. But when fashion moves on, the owner of that £350,000 beauty will suddenly find his pride and joy is no more a good investment than my childhood times.
28. The sales of watches to young people have fallen because they ______.
A. have other devices to tell the time B. think watches too expensive
C. prefer to wear an iPod D. have no sense of time
29. It seems ridiculous to the writer that ______.
A. people dive 300 meters into the sea
B. expensive clothes sell better than cheap ones
C. cheap cars don’t run as fast ns expensive ones
D. expensive watches with unnecessary functions still sell
30. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Timex or Rolex? B. My Childhood Timex
C. Watches? Not for Me! D. Watches—a Valuable Collection
第二节(共5小题 每小题2分 满分10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
What would you do if you were lost in the wilderness? You have probably read or heard about people who survive under seemingly impossible conditions. These people have been able to survive by focusing on three basic needs: water, food, and shelter.
Water is one of the few substances necessary to sustain(维持)life, but pure water may be difficult to find. 31 Exhaustion(疲劳)will cause you to sweat heavily, resulting in a salt shortage that causes dehydration(脱水). An easy way to collect water is to collect dew(露水)in the morning for water.
Feeling of hunger can be ignored with a positive attitude. 32 Some people have to eat insects, earthworms and other animals that are easy to catch. Plants, however, should not be eaten unless they are not poisonous. 33 Knobby berries, such as blackberries and raspberries, are also simple to identify.
34 In heavy rains or snow, you can build a shelter with branches and ropes. Use as many branches as possible for added stability and protection against the wind and weather. If you are in a desert environment, try to build an underground shade shelter to avoid sun exposure.
Remember calm is extremely important in any emergency. 35 Find a water source, identify food to gather and find shelter. By focusing on these basics, you can turn yourself into a survivor.
A. Nuts are easy to identify and are nutritious.
B. Water can set the line between life and death.
C. Keep your body temperature as normal as possible.
D. If there is a shortage of water, do not exhaust yourself.
E. Protection from extreme temperatures is another concern.
F. Come up with a plan and don’t waste time or energy by getting upset.
G. But food is another necessity if you are lost for a longer period of time.
