21、   Are you interested in higher education in the United States? The following advice might help you.

● College, University or Institute

College and universities offer undergraduate degrees in arts and sciences. And both can help prepare young people to earn a living. But many colleges don't offer graduate studies. Universities are generally bigger, offer more programs and do more research. An institute of technology can offer a wide choice of programs and activities. Seventy-five percent of freshmen go there with a strong interest and involvement in the arts.

● The Application Process

International admissions officers advise students to apply to at least three schools. You may be able to apply online and pay the application charge with a credit card, or by mail. You should study the websites of schools to find information about how and when to apply, how much it will cost and whether any financial aid is available.

● Get a Student Card

If you request a visa for the first time, you will have to go to an American embassy or consulate(领事馆). You will need to bring a government form sent to you by your American school that shows you have been accepted. A consular official will also take your picture and your fingerprints. You will also need banking and tax records that show you have enough money to pay for your education.

● Financial Aid

American schools provide aid, like scholarships, fellowships, to almost half of foreign graduate students, but only ten percent of undergraduates. But grants, which, unlike a loan, does not have to be paid.

22、High school graduation—the bittersweet feelings are as much a part of me now as they were twenty-one years ago.

As graduation day approached, excitement increased. Being out of high school meant I was finally coming of age. Soon I would be on my own, making my own decisions, doing what I wanted without someone looking over my shoulder and it meant going to school with boys—a welcome change coming from an all-girl high school. There was never any question in my mind that I would go to a college away from home. My mother’s idea, on the other hand, was just the opposite. Trying her best not to force her preferences on me, she would mildly ask whether I had considered particular schools—all of which happened to be located in or near my hometown of Chicago. Once it was established(建立) that, as long as the expenses would not be too heavy a burden on the family budget, I would be going away anyway, my family’s viewpoint changed. Their concern switched from whether I was going away to how far. The schools I was considering on the East Coast suddenly looked much more attractive than those in California. But which college I would attend was just one of what seemed like a never-ending list of unknowns: What would college be like? Would I be unbearably lonely not knowing anyone else who was going to the same school? Would the other students like me? Would I make friends easily? Would I miss my family so much that I wouldn’t be able to stand it? And what about the work—would I be able to keep up? (Being an A student in high school seemed to offer little hope I would be able to survive college.) What if the college I chose turned out to be a terrible mistake? Would I be able to switch to another school?

Then panic set in. My feelings took a 180-degree turn. I really didn’t want to leave high school at all, and it was questionable whether I wanted to grow up after all. It had been nice being respected as a senior by the underclass students for the past year; I didn’t enjoy the idea of being on the bottom rung of the ladder again.

Despite months of expectation, nothing could have prepared me for the impact of the actual day. As the familiar melody (旋律) of “Pomp and Circumstance” echoed in the background, I looked around at the other students in white caps and gowns as we seriously lined into the hall. Tears welled up uncontrollably in my eyes, and I was overcome by a rush of sadness. As if in a daze (恍惚), I rose from my seat when I heard my name called and slowly crossed the stage to receive my diploma(毕业文凭). As I reached out my hand, I knew that I was reaching not just for a piece of paper but for a brand-new life. Exciting as the future of a new life seemed, it wasn’t easy saying good-bye to the old one—the familiar faces, the familiar routine. I would even miss that chemistry class I wasn’t particularly fond of and the long travel each day between home and school that I hated. Good or bad, it was what I knew.

That September, I was fortunate to attend a wonderful university in Providence, Rhode Island. I needn’t have worried about liking it. My years there turned out to be some of the best years of my life. And as for friends, some of the friendships I formed there I still treasure today. Years later, financial difficulties forced my high school to close its doors forever. Although going back is impossible, it’s comforting to know I can revisit my special memories any time.

23、七选五根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。请把答案填涂在答题卡上。

You might dream of fluency in this or that language, and maybe you’ve already achieved fluency in a foreign language.【1】.

Fluency, like all abstract terms, has no universal meaning. Each individual must determine what the term means.【2】.

Perfect fluency means knowing every word you encounter, speaking quickly, clearly and easily and having no accent.【3】. You aren’t familiar with every word of your native language, and sometimes you have to search for the right word, even in your mother tongue.Quick fluency is the type of fluency you see in advertisements, because “Master a Language in Two Months!” sounds way catchier than “Fluency in Twenty Years!”【4】. It is possible to achieve quick fluency, but the fluency achieved after such a short time frame will be a very thin, superficial fluency.

【5】. Native-like fluency means that you generally know all the same words that a native knows and can speak at the same pace with the same amount of ease as a native speaker. You will likely have an accent, but as long as your conversation partner can understand you, it doesn’t matter.Literary fluency is like graduating from native-like to educated-native-like fluency. It focuses on the more intellectual（知识性的） side of a language: indulging in literature, attending university, composing song lyrics, etc.

There are a ton of other things that fluency could potentially（可能地） be, but that’s up to you to figure out.

A．It sounds too good to be true.

B．However, Nobody is “perfectly fluent” in any language.

C．Quick fluency is good if you have some sort of deadline.

D．But have you ever considered what fluency really means?

E．But does fluency have the same meaning to other person as it does to you?

F．Unlike perfect fluency, native-like fluency is a reasonable and attainable goal.

G．To assist you in determining what fluency is, I’ll describe a few different types of fluency.

24、How much money is time worth? The question really matters, especially for the government. Before pursuing projects, governments weigh costs and benefits. And for many projects, especially those having to do with roads or bridges, one of the biggest benefits is time saved.

A new study sponsored by the rideshare company Lyft conducted experiments on 3.7 million customers in nine American cities. They adjusted prices and wait times to test when users requested and didn’t request rides. Then, they were able to figure out how much people are willing to pay to wait less for their rides.

For a long time, researchers have relied on surveys in which they asked questions like “How much would you pay to save five minutes?” People in these surveys may not accurately give the value of their time because it’s hypothetical (假设的). But Lyft’s data has information on the actual decisions that people make about how they value their time. If Lyft makes you wait five minutes more for your ride, will you take it? What if it charges you more for a shorter wait?

After analyzing the numbers, the researchers found a precise estimate for the average value of time: $19 an hour. They’ve also found that people’s value of time shifts throughout the day. The value of time is 50% larger in peak commute (通勤路程) time than in non-peak commute time. During commute time, minutes matter. People don’t want to be late for work. The value of saving minutes on rides increase when it’s raining or snowing.

Regarding their overall estimate, we should note that their experiments were conducted in nine of the richest urban areas in America. These are busy areas where being five minutes late for business meetings or dinner reservations can matter. Plus, the residents there are the type of people who pay for taxis. The researchers said they took pains to address these by adjusting their samples to match nationally representative surveys done by the government, and that they were confident in their findings. Maybe more research is needed to prove their findings.

【1】What did the researchers do in the study?

A．They asked some Lyft customers questions.

B．They monitored some Lyft customers’ behavior.

C．They analyzed previous data on Lyft customers.

D．They tested their assumptions on Lyft employees.

【2】What was the problem with previous surveys about people’s value of time?

A．They included too many questions.

B．They made the participants wait too long.

C．They collected assumptions instead of facts.

D．They failed to win the participants’ full support.

【3】When might a person attach the greatest value to time according to the study?

A．After enjoying the snowy scene.

B．After attending a business meeting.

C．When on holiday in the countryside.

D．When riding to work in the rush hour.

【4】What is the author’s attitude toward the findings of the study?

A．Skeptical.

B．Critical.

C．Approving.

D．Unconcerned.

25、What if we could study people from the time that they were teenagers all the way in to old age to see what really keeps people _______ and fit?

Luckily for us, for many years now, we’ve conducted a study to answer this very question. The Harvard Study of Adult Development may be the longest study of adult life that has ever been done. For nearly 80 years, we’ve _______the lives of 724 men, asking about their work, their home life and their health. About 60 of our _______ are still participating in the study, most of whom are now in their 90s.

And I’m the fourth director of the study. So what have we learned from the tens of thousands of pages of information that we’ve _______ on these lives? Well, the lessons aren’t about _______ or fame or hard work. The clearest message that we have gotten from this study is this: Good relationships keep us happier and healthier.

We’ve learned three big lessons about relationships. Firstly, social connections are really good for us, and _______kills. People who are more closely connected to their family, friends and community are happier, physically healthier, and live longer lives than those who are less _______. The sad fact is that at any given time, more than one in five Americans will report that they’re lonely.

And we know that you can be lonely in a crowd, so the second big lesson is that it’s not just the number of friends you have, but it’s the _______ of your close relationships that matters. High-conflict marriages without much affection, _______ , prove to be very bad for our health, perhaps even worse than divorces.

________ protecting our bodies, good relationships help our memories stay sharper for a longer time. And those good relationships don’t have to be ________ all the time. Some couples could argue with each other day in and day out in their 80s, but as long as they felt that they could really ________ the other when the going got tough, those arguments wouldn’t end up doing harm to their memories.

So what about you? What might “leaning into relationships” even look like? Well, the ________ are practically endless. It might be something as simple as replacing screen time with people time, or ________ a stale (腻烦的) relationship by doing something new together, or reaching out to that family member to whom you haven’t spoken in years.

________ the good life is built with good relationships.
