1. 回答46-56题：
    A)You’re driving your car home from work or school．And something goes wron9．The engine stalls out at lights，holds back as you go to pass．It needs a tune•up——and soon．Where do you go?The library．You can take out an auto repair manual that tells step—by—step how to tune up your make and model．Or your tennis game has fallen off．You’ve lost your touch at the net．Where do you go?The library——for a few books on improving your tennis form．
    B)“The library!”you say．“That’s where my teacher sends me to do一ugh—homework．"Unfortunately, I’ve found that’s exactly the way many people feel．If you’re among them．you’re denying yourself the easiest way to improve yourself,enjoy yourself and even cope with life．My first suggestion for making the most of your library is to do what I did，read and read and read．For pleasure——and for understanding．
    C) If it’s TV that keeps you from cultivating this delicious habit，I can offer a sure remedy．Take home from the library a stack of books that might look interestin9．Pile them on the TV set．Next time you are tempted to turn on a program you really don’t want to see，reach for a book instead．
    D)Over the years，people collect a mental list of books they mean to read．If you don’t have such a list，here is the suggestion．Take from the library some of the books you might have enjoyed dramatized on TV,like Remargue’s All Quiet on the Western Front，Clavell’s Shegun，Tolkien’s The Hobbit，or Victor Hugo’s Les Mise Rables．If you like what you read、you can follow up with other satisfying books by the same authors．
    E)Some people in their reading limit themselves to current talked—about best sellers．Oh，what they miss!The library is full of yesterday’s best sellers；and they still make compelling reading today． Some that I've enjoyed：A．B．Guthrie’s The Big Sky，Carl Van Doren’s Benjamin Franklin，Mari Sandoz’s．Old Jules，and Norman Mailer’s The Naked and the Dead．
    F) How do you find these or any other books you’re looking for?It’s easy—with the card catalog． Every time I go to the library——and I go more than once a week——I invariably make a beeline to the card catalog before anything else．It’s the nucleus of any public library．The card catalog lists every book in the library by：1．author；2．title；3．subject．Let’s pick an interesting subject to look up．I have always been fascinated by astronomy．You’11 be surprised at the wealth of material you will find under“astronomy”to draw upon．And the absorbing books you didn’t know existed on it．
CAUTION：Always have a pencil and paper when you use the card catal09．
    G) Once you jot down the numbers of the books you are interested in，you are ready to find them on the shelves．Libraries call the shelves “the stacks”．In many smaller libraries，which you’ll be using，the stacks will be open for you to browse．To me there is a special thrill in tracking down the books I want in lhe stacks!For invariably,I find books about which I knew nothin9，and these often turn out to be the very ones l need．You will find the same thing happening to ypu when you start to browse in the stacks．“A learned mind is the end product of browsing．”CAUTION：If you take a book from the stack s to your work desk，do not try to return it to its proper place．That’s work for the experts．If you replace it incorrectly,the next seeker won’t be able to find it．
    H) Some of the brightest and best．informed men and women in America are the librarians who specialize in providing reference help．Introduce yourself State your problem．And be amazed at how much he p you will receive．CAUTION：Don’t waste the time of this expert by asking silly questions you ought to solve yourself．Save the reference librarian for the really big ones．
    I) You shot：ld also learn to use the Reader's Guide to Periodical Literature．This green—bound index is me of the most useful items in any library．It indexes all the articles in the major magazines，including newspaper magazine supplements．Thus it provides a guide to the very latest expert information of any subject that interests you．So if you want to do a really first—class job，find out which magazines your library subscribes to，then consult the Reader's Guide and track down recent articles on your subject．When you use this wonderful tool effectively,you show the mark of a real scholar．
    J) Since you can take most books home，but not magazines，take full notes when using the latter． Many libraries today provide a reprographic machine that can quickly copy pages you need from magazines and books．Ask about it：If you are working on a project of some size which will require repeated library visits，keep a small notebook in which you record the identification numbers of the books you will be using frequently．This will save you valuable time，because you won’t have to consult the card catalog or search aimlessly through the stacks each time you visit for material you seek．Sol fie of the very best books in any library are the reference books，which may not be taken home．Learn what topics they cover and how best to use them，for these books are wonderful repositories (储藏室、资料库)of human knowledge．
    K) Your library can give you help on any subject．It can even be your business and legal advisor．How many times have you scratched your head over how to get a tax rebate(折扣)on your summer job?You，11 find guides to that．Want to defend yourself in traffic couP?Find out how in legal books at the library．
    L) Library Projects Can Be Fun and Rewardin9．Here are a few ideas：
1．What are your roots?Trace your ancestors．Many libraries specialize in genealogy．
2．Did George Washington sleep nearby?Or Billy the Kid?Your library’s collection of local history books can put you on the trail．
3．Cook a Polynesian feast．Or an ancient Roman banquet．Read how in the library’s cook books．
4．Take up photography．Check the library for consumer reviews of cameras before you buy．Take out books on lightin9，composition，or darkroom techniques or—you name it!
    M)If you haven，t detected by now my enthusiasm for libraries，let me offer two personal notes．I'm particularly pleased that in recent years two beautiful libraries have been named after me：a small community library in Quakertown，Pennsylvania，and the huge research library located at the University of Northern Colorado in Greeley．And I like libraries so much that I married a librarian．

The nucleus of any public library is the car，d catalog．
2. Questions56-57 are based on the following paassage.
        Virtually unknown a decade ago, big online teacher education program snow dwarf their traditional competitors, outstripping (超过) even the largeststate university teachers' colleges.
        A USA Today analysis of newly released U. S. Department of Education data finds that four big universities, operating mostly online, have quickly become the largest education schools in the USA. Last year the four--three of which are for-profit--awarded one in 16 bachelor' sdegrees and post-graduate awards and nearly one in 11 advanced education awards, including master' sdegrees and doctorates.
        A decade ago, in 2001, the for-profit University of Phoenix awarded 72 education degrees to teachers, administrators and other school personnel through its online program, according to federal data. Last year, it awarded nearly 6,000 degrees, more than any other university.
        Traditional colleges still produce most of the bachelor's degrees in teaching. But online schools such as Phoenix and Walden University awarded thousands more master's degrees than even the top traditional schools, all of which are pushing to offer online coursework.
        "We shouldn't be surprised because the whole industry is moving in that direction," said Robert Pianta, dean of the University of Virginia's Curry School of Education. "The thing I would be interested in knowing is the degree to which they are simply pushing these things out in order to generate dollars or whether there's some real innovation in there. "
        For-profit universities have been the subject of intense examining in Congress. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, who chairs the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, last week released findings from a two-year investigation showing that they cost more than comparable not-for-profit schools and have higher dropout rates. For-profits, the investigation found, enroll about 10% of U. S. college students butaccount for nearly 50% of student loan defaults.
        Online education schools, many of which have open-enrollment policies similar to community colleges, say their offerings are high quality.
        Meredith Curley, dean of the University of Phoenix College of Education, said many students are returning to complete their education after starting families and changing careers. Their average age is 33, she said, and many work while they attend classes. Becky Lodewyck, Phoenix's associate dean, said teaching candidates must complete at least 100 hours of field experience. She said online classes are "incredibly dynamic" and have the potential to hold students more accountable than face-to-face classes.
        "You can't hide," she said. "Everyone participates--everyone has to be fully engaged in the work. "

It can be learned from the second paragraph that four big universities______.
A．have become the largest online schools in the US
B．are the biggest for-profit schools in the US
C．occupy important position in education in the US
D．focus on developing advanced education in the US

3. 根据以下资料，回答57-2题：
        New evidence of a sick, deprived population working under harshconditions contradicts earlier images of wealth and abundance from the artrecords of the ancient Egyptian city of Tell el-Amarna, a study has found．Tell el-Amarna was the capital of ancient Egypt during the reign of the pharaoh (法老) Akhenaten, who abandoned most of Egypt's old gods in favor of the Aten sun disk andbrought in a new and more expressive style of art．Akhenaten, who ruled Egypt between 1379 and 1362BC, built and lived in Tell el-Amarna in central Egypt for 15 years．The city was largely abandoned shortlyafter his death and the ascendance of the famous boy king Tutankhamun to the throne．Studies on the remains of ordinary ancient Egyptians in a cemetery in Tell el-Amarna showed thatmany of them suffered from anem/a (贫血症 ), fractured bones, stunted growth and high juvenilemortality rates, according to professors Barry Kemp and Jerome Rose, who led the research．Rose, a professor of anthropology (人类学) in the University of Arkansas in the United States, saidadults buried in the cemetery were probably brought there from other parts of Egypt．"This means that wehave a period of deprivation in Egypt prior to the Amarna phase．So maybe things were not so good for theaverage Egyptian and maybe Akhenaten said we have to change to make things better," he said．Kemp, director of the Amarna Project which seeks in part to increase public knowledge of Tell el-Amarna and surrounding region, said little attention has been given to the cemeteries of ordinary ancient Egyptians．Rose displayed pictures showing spinal (脊柱) injuries among teenagers, probably because of accidents during construction work to build the city．The study showed that anemia ran at 74 percent among children and teenagers, and at 44 percentamong adults, Rose said．The average height of men was 159 cm (5 feet 2 inches) and 153 cm among women．"Adult heights are used as an indicator for overall standard of living," he said．"Short statures(身长) reflect a diet deficient in protein．．．People were not growing to their full potential．"


What is the findings of the study mentioned in the passage?
A．The ancient Tell el-Amarna was famous for its art records．
B．The artistic exhibition of ancient Tell el-Amarna was trustworthy．
C．The art records of Tell el-Amarna showed ancient Egyptians' real life．
D．Life was really tough for average Egyptians in ancient Tell el-Amarna．

　　The three main types of databases are statistical, bibliographic, and full text. Statistical databases store 15 amounts of numerical data, such as wage and price indexes, census information, foreign 16 rates and bond prices. Bibliographic databases store references to and summaries of articles in periodicals and newspapers. Full-text databases offer the complex texts of such 17   as newspaper, magazine, and journal articles.
　　Thousands of databases exist today, and their numbers are growing. Many companies have their in-house database, which is 18 to employees through computer terminals or microcomputers.

9. A) We are surrounded by so much paper and card that it is easy to forget just how complex it is. There are many varieties and grades of paper materials, and whilst it is fairly easy to spot the varieties, it is far more difficult to spot the grades.
B) It needs to be understood that most paper and card is manufactured for a specific purpose, so that whilst the corn-flake packet may look smart, it is clearly not something destined for the archives. It is made to look good, but only needs a limited life span. It is also much cheaper to manufacture than high grade card.
C) Paper can be made from an almost endless variety of cellulose-based material which will include many woods, cottons and grasses or which papyrus is an example and from where we get the word "paper". Many of these are very specialized, but the preponderance of paper making has been from soft wood and cotton or rags, with the bulk being wood-based.
Paper from Wood
D) In order to make wood into paper it needs to be broken down into fine strands. Firstly by powerful machinery and then boiled with strong alkalies such as caustic soda, until a fine pulp of cellulose fibers is produced. It is from this pulp that the final product is made, relying on the bonding together of the cellulose into layers. That, in a very small nutshell, is the essence of paper making from wood. However, the reality is rather more complicated. In order to give us our white paper and card, the makers will add bleach and other materials such as china clay and additional chemicals.
E) A further problem with wood is that it contains a material that is not cellulose. Something called lignin. This is essential for the tree since it holds the cellulose fibres together, but if it is incorporated into the manufactured paper it presents archivists with a problem. Lignin eventually breaks down and releases acid products into the paper. This will weaken the bond between the cellulose fibers and the paper will become brittle and look rather brown and careworn. We have all seen this in old newspapers and cheap paperback books. It has been estimated that most paper back books will have a life of not greater than fifty years. Not what we need for our archives.
F) Since the lignin can be removed from the paper pulp during manufacture, the obvious question is "why is it left in the paper?" The answer lies in the fact that lignin makes up a considerable part of the tree. By leaving the lignin in the pulp a papermaker can increase his paper yield from a tree to some 95%. Removing it means a yield of only 35%. It is clearly uneconomic to remove the lignin for many paper and card applications.
G) It also means, of course, that lignin-free paper is going to be more expensive, but that is nevertheless what the archivist must look for in his supplies. There is no point whatsoever in carefully placing our valuable artifacts in paper or card that is going to hasten their demise. Acid is particularly harmful to photographic materials, causing them to fade and is some cases simply vanish!
H) So, how do we tell a piece of suitable paper or card from one that is unsuitable? You cannot do it by simply looking, and rather disappointingly, you cannot always rely on the label. "Acid-free" might be true inasmuch as a test on the paper may indicate that it is a neutral material at this time. But lignin can take years before it starts the inevitable process of breaking down, and in the right conditions it will speed up enormously.
I) Added to this, as I have indicated earlier, paper may also contain other materials added during manufacture such as bleach, china clay, chemical whiteners and size. This looks like a bleak picture, and it would be but for the fact that there are suppliers who will guarantee the material that they sell. If you want to be absolutely sure that you are storing in, or printing on, the correct material then this is probably the only way.
J) Incidentally, acids can migrate from material to material. Lining old shoe boxes with good quality acid-free paper will do little to guard the contents. The acid will get there in the end.
Paper from Rag
K) Paper is also commonly made from cotton and rag waste. This has the advantage of being lignin-free, but because there is much less cotton and rag than trees, it also tends to be much more expensive than wood pulp paper. You will still need to purchase from a reliable source though, since even rag paper and card can contain undesirable additives.
L) A reliable source for quality rag papers is a recognized art stockiest. Many water color artists insist on using only fine quality rag paper and board.
M) The main lesson to learn from this information is that you cannot rely on purchasing archival materials from the high street. The only safe solution is to purchase from specialist suppliers. It may cost rather more, but in the end you will know that your important and valuable data and images have the best home possible.

The corn-flake packet is cheaper than high grade card.
