But critics ___20___ the morality of a situation where college athletes may seem ___21___ more as athletes
than as college students. Praise is heard for recent improvements in graduation rates. Yet critics say that some players

expectations and pressures on athletes ___22___ from school to school and sport to sport.
The National Collegiate Athletic Association governs college sports in the United States. For the past few years,

Britain has a complete network of public libraries, administered by local library authorities: These libraries have
a’ total collection of some 115 million books.
About one-third of the total population are members of public libraries. This leading and reference library service
is, with some limitations, free.
Public libraries not only lend books, music scores, and records, but also provide libraries for children, patients
in hospital and prisoners in jails, among others. They engage in many other kinds of activities as well, such as
organizing play readings, lectures, films shows and musical circles. They also help to promote and develop adult
education.
The greatest and most famous library in Britain is that of the British Museum (now part of the British Library
created in 1973), which possesses over six million books. A copy of every book, magazines, newspaper, etc. ,
published in Great Britain must be sent to the British Museum. The Reading Room of the Museum is famous for the
number of scholars and notables who have studied in it. The British Museum Library is not a lending library.
The second best-known library in Britain is the Boldeian Library at Oxford (over two million volumes). The
National Library of Scotland (about two million volumes) and the National Library of Wales (more than one and a
quarter million volumes) are also famous, and may claim a copy of every new work published in Britain. There is
also a National Library for the Blind, with over three hundred thousand volumes in a specially embossed type.

(B)
With the fragrance industry expected to be worth an enormous $92 billion by 2024, there is big money to be
made from scents. As the fashion and marketing industry moves away from targeting men and women and onto a
more inclusive, non-gendered approach, fragrance companies are doing the exact same-creating products that can
be worn happily by all genders. The smells we’re drawn to are inherently universal, across all genders and
including all noses. With this in mind, we tested our noses against three of the brands that have made a play for
gender neutrality.
Eccentric Molecules
The unique selling point of Eccentric Molecules is that it's designed to smell completely
different on every wearer, reacting with our natural scents to create a unique blend. With
potential for sharing with a loved one, their packaging is a practical if a little unromantic,
simple bottle.
Still, upon opening their best seller "Molecule 01", the journey begins. Upon first spray,
the overwhelming scent is of alcohol, but it soon settles into a barely-there smell that recalls
soft leather and feels surprisingly soothing on skin.
Top Scent: Molecule 01, £72 for 100ml
Clean Reserve
Clean Reserve smells like it sounds-bright, fresh scents that would appeal to those who
prefer light smell. It is also perfect for keeping in your gym or day bag to freshen up yourself.
Packaging feels weighty and luxurious — without compromising sustainability — the
bottle is made from sustainability -managed fores: wood and even the alcohol is derived from
corn.

jiajiao6767 )
Top Scent: Rain, £82 for100ml
Laboratory Perfumes
Packaged in chemistry-class bottles, this brand's latest collection is strongly inspired by
Britain and its natural abundance of herbs and flowers. What results are grown-up, powerful
scents.
Our clear favourites from the collection couldn't be more different —“Samphire” is a
refreshing coastal scent mixed with rose, while “Atlas” is a strong blend of wine and tobacco,
an easy signature scent for day and night with minimal reapplication needed.
Top Scent: Atlas, £65 for 100ml
46. The purpose of paragraph 1 is ______.
A. to analyze how smells influence us
B. to sell the idea of non-gendered fragrance
C to inform the readers of a latest fashion trend
.
D. to justify the development of fragrance industry
47. The common feature of Escentric Molecules and Clean Reserve is ______.
A. practical and simple packaging
B. sustainable packaging made from wood
C. a soft and light scent
D. smelling totally different on every user
48. For a customer who prefer strong mature smells that lasts a whole day, which product should he choose?
A. Molecule 01. B. Rain. C. Samphire. D. Atlas.
C
By far the most common difficulty in study is simple failure to get down to regular concentrated work. This
difficulty is much greater for those who do not work to a plan and have no regular routine of study. Many students
muddle along doing a bit of this subject or that, as the mood takes them, or letting their set work pile up until the
,
last possible moment.
Few students work to a set timetable. They say that if they did construct a timetable for themselves they would
not keep to it, or would have to alter it constantly, since they can never predict from one day to the next what their
activities will be.

jiajiao6767 )
No doubt some temperaments take much more kindly to a regular routine than others. There are many who shy
away from the self-regimentation (严格控制) of a weekly timetable, and dislike being tied down to a definite
programme of work. Many able students claim that they work in cycles. When they become interested in a topic they
work on it intensively for three or four days at a time. On other days they avoid work completely. It has to be
confessed that we do not fully understand the complexities of the motivation to work. Most people over 25 years of
age have been used to a work routine, and the majority of really productive workers set aside regular hours for the
more important aspects of their work. The “tough-minded” school of workers is usually very contemptuous (蔑视
的) of the idea that good work can only be done spontaneously, under the influence of inspiration.
Those who believe that they need only work and study as the fit takes them have a mistaken belief either in their
own talent or in the value of “freedom”. Freedom from discipline leads to unhappiness rather than to “self-expression”
or “personality development”. Our society insists on regular habits, timekeeping and punctuality, and whether we
like it or not, if we mean to make our way in society we have to comply with its demands.
49. The most widespread problem in applying oneself to study is that of .
A. the failure to keep to a routine of intensive work
B. changing from one subject to another
C. willingness to follow a systematic plan
D. applying oneself to a subject only when one feels inclined
50. Those workers with strict views on work .
A. are very critical of the belief that good work can be a natural product of instinct
B. reject the idea that good work is second nature to man
C. do not regard as serious the opinion that good work can be done at any time regardless of inspiration
D. pay no attention to the idea that good work can only be done when they are prompted by internal stimulus
51. In Paragraph 4 “as the fit takes them” means .
A. when they have the energy B. when they are in the mood
C. when they find conditions suitable D. when they feel fit
52. A suitable title for the passage might be .
A. Attitudes to Study B. Study Plans
C. The Difficulties in Study D. Study and Self-discipline
Ⅳ. Vocabulary: (9%)
Fill in the blanks with the proper expressions given below. Change the form when necessary.
