Should I choose a good major or a good university? Senior three student will
face the question after they pass by the college entrance examination. Some students
prefer to consider majors first so that they can learn what they are interested. It will
also make it possible for them to do their favorite jobs in the future. Therefore, those
who think differently believed that the environment is more important to one’s
development. They also believe that students graduate from leading universities are
often more possible to find a good job. Honest, the best choice is to choose a good
major at a good university. But if we can obtain both, the first thing to consider is a
good major, because no matter where we study, they can still achieve a lot in a certain
field if we try our best.

Local businessmen are increasingly facing competition from online retailers. Larry Pollock, owner of Camera Co/Op on South Congress, said he has been dealing with this kind of problem for years, even before the Internet. The struggle began with mail-order catalogues(目錄), which are similar to online retailers in that they have few employees to pay, no sales tax fees and no business venue to lease and manage.
“Their overhead is lower, but they don’t offer a service like we do,” Pollock said.
Pollock, however, said providing a valuable service to customers does not always guarantee continued sales.
“We spend 30 minutes to an hour with somebody and they go home and buy it on line,” he said.
According to the state comptroller’s office, online shopping is developing at a more rapid rate than traditional businesses.
In spite of how fair or unfair online shopping may be to the local businessmen, consumers will continue to turn to the Internet for its variety and accessibility, said Mitch Wilson, an online shopper. “You have a larger selection and it's easier to compare prices.”
Wilson said he built his personal computer and paid a third of the price by shopping on line.
“Before the Internet, I would have had to go and buy an assembled computer from somebody like Dell,” he said. “Before I started shopping on line I could never find all the pieces I wanted. No single store had everything needed, so shopping on line saved me from having to buy from Dell.”
Janny Brazeal, a psychology freshman, said online shopping is too impersonal.
“’d rather see it in person, touch it, know that I’m getting it,” she said.
Brazeal also said she would not give out her credit card number or other personal information on line no matter how safe the site claims it is.
1.Larry Pollock has been facing the problem _____.
A. before long
B. after the Internet
C. since there were mail-order catalogues
D. since he worked as a businessman
2.According to the passage, which of the following is WRONG?
A. Traditional business can provide valuable ser- vices to customers.
B. People can get cheaper goods from traditional business.
C. More and more people will turn to the Internet for their needs.
D. There are still many people who don’t like on- line shopping.
3. Mitch Wilson prefers to build his personal compu- ter by shopping on line because _____.
A. he can easily get what he needs at a lower price
B. he can not get the price at traditional businessman
C. he is not satisfied with the service of local busi- nessman
D. the quality of Dell is not satisfying

When Gretchen Baxter gets home from work as a New York City book editor, she checks her Blackberry at the door. “I think we are attached to these devices in a way that is not always positive,” says Baxter, who’d rather focus at home on her husband and 12-year-old daughter. “It’s there and it beckons(召喚). That’s human nature (but)…we kind of get crazy sometimes and we don’t know where it should stop.”
Americans are connected at unprecedented(前所未有的) levels—93% now use cell phones or wireless devices; one third of those are “smart phones” that allow users to browse the web and check e-mails, among other things. The benefits are obvious: checking messages on the road, staying in touch with friends and family, efficiently using time once spent waiting around. The downside: often, we’re effectively disconnecting from those in the same room.
That’s why, despite all the technology that makes communicating easier than ever, 2010 was the year we stopped talking to one another. From texting at dinner to posting on Facebook from work or checking e-mails while on a date, the connectivity revolution is creating a lot of divided attention, not to mention social anxiety. Many analysts say it’s time to step back and reassess (再評價).
“What we’re going to see in the future is new opportunities for people to be plugged in and connected like never before,” says Scott Campbell. “It can be a good thing, but I also see new ways the traditional social construction is getting somewhat torn apart.”
Our days are filled with beeps and pings—many of which pull us away from tasks at hand or face-to-face conversations. We may feel that the distractions(干擾) are too much, but we can’t seem to stop posting, texting or surfing. “We’re going through a period of adjustment and rebalancing, ” says Sherry Turkle and she wants to remind people that technology can be turned off. “Our human purposes are to really have connections with people,” she says. “We have to reclaim it. It’s not going to take place by itself.”
1.According to Paragraph 1, Gretchen Baxter thinks _____.
A. the new technology always influences people’s life in a positive way
B. the new technology always influences people’s life in a negative way
C. the family isn’t that important compared to the new technology
D. people are too dependent on the new technology to let go
2. The underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 2 probably means _____.
A. advantage B. weakness
C. strengthD. effect
3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The wide use of mobile devices has nothing to do with the traditional social construction.
B. Mobile devices play a less important part in American life.
C. Mobile devices create a lot of divided attention and social anxiety.
D. Many analysts speak highly of the wide popularity of mobile devices.
4. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Something must be done to get connection with people in reality again.
B. Using mobile services can help people get con- nection with each other.
C. Mobile services have a strong impact on people’s life.
D. The connection with people can happen naturally.

Growing up the daughter of an outstanding educator,Andrea Peterson knew at a young age that she wanted to serve others.It was with this mindset that she started to pursue a degree in medicine.However,while visiting her brothers who were away at college studying music education,she realized that she was drawn to teach music,too.
In her ten years at Granite Falls,she has revitalized the music programs at both the elementary and high school levels,to the extent that an additional music faculty member was hired by the district to assist with the workload.The growth of the music program in Granite Falls School District has encouraged students to participate in country,state and national music competitions,and won numerous prizes for the district.
Teaching music is only a part of Peterson's instruction-it serves as a vehicle to other areas.“Music is an amazing tool to unlock students' potential.The most visible benefit from their success in music is their increased confidence and self?es?teem,” Peterson said.“However,I don't believe it is the only benefit,nor the most powerful.It is truly exciting to see how my music teaching can transfer to other classrooms.” With this philosophy,Peterson introduced a cross?curriculum program,wherein she takes lessons taught in other classes,such as English and math,and expands upon them in an eight?week unit.
One of the most popular projects in Peterson's classes is the creation and performance of a musical,and whereby students create a play from one of the books they have read in another class.Students work together to choose the music that best fits with the overall feel of the play and then perform it for the greater community.“Through Andrea's efforts these kids have helped to put Granite Falls,Washington,on the map for musical talents.Parents,staff and community members continue to be in awe of what she is able to bring forth from the children,”said Debra Rose Howell,a colleague of Peterson's at Monte Crisco Elementary School.

There were a thousand reasons not to stop.I was running late for a very important...well,whatever it was that I was running late for that day.Surely the Highway Patrol would be along soon,and it's their job to help stranded (擱淺) motorists,isn't it?
That made 1,004 reasons not to stop.And here was 1,005:I was the world's worst auto mechanic.The first time I tried to change my car's oil myself I did fine—until I forgot to put the new oil in.The boys down at the garage had a big laugh over that.
I'm not sure how much it would have helped that lady who was stranded by the side of the freeway if I had pulled over.So I drove on by,just like hundreds of other drivers on the freeway that day.Then suddenly I turned off at the next exit and made my way back to see if I could at least give her a lift or something.But by the time I got back to her,a Hispanic (西班牙的) gentleman had pulled in behind her,and was tinkering (修補) with her car's engine.
“Is there anything I can do to help?” I asked.
“No,thank you,”the lady replied.“This nice man says he can fix it.” After the man repaired it,the woman tried to give him some money,but he declined and waved as she drove off.It wasn't until we started walking toward our cars that I noticed he had five more reasons not to stop than I did;his family was sitting in the station wagon,waiting patiently.“Do you stop and help people like this often?”I asked.
“Somebody has to,”he said.“What's she going to do if nobody helps?”And for him,that was enough.
