21、Google made waves recently by announcing its new program, “Google Career Certificates,” a collection of courses designed to help participants get qualifications in high-paying, high-growth job fields without attending university. The courses take about six months to complete and will cost much less, compared to a traditional college education.

The response was huge. The article has been shared thousands of times and has caused thousands of comments. Most of the feedback has been extremely positive. Those who commented included professionals, employers and especially students who were happy to see an alternative to what many consider a broken educational system — one leaving many burdened with student debt for years while unprepared for the real world. With less time, the program can better equip graduates for the jobs they are seeking with practical and necessary skills.

What Google is offering isn’t exactly new. In some ways, the alternative resembles other traditional types of training like professional education or apprenticeship (学徒制) programs. The difference since Google is a household name, its certificate can be easily recognized and accepted across companies and industries - much like a degree from a major university.

Not all the feedback I received was in praise of Google’s initiative. Many readers expressed concern that not enough employers would value Google’s certificate program. One even described it as money racket (敲诈). So to ensure other companies to follow its lead, Google has established an association for employers to tap into the program and is currently inviting more to join. But still some readers leveled the criticism that there are certain lessons taught in higher education that you simply can’t get in other places.

In the end, I don’t think Google’s program will completely replace college education. But I do think it’s a step in the right direction — a separate path for students who are looking for something different than traditional higher education.

【1】Who is the new Google program intended for?

A．Career trainers.

B．Job seekers.

C．Business managers.

D．College professors.

【2】Which words can best describe the Google program?

A．Well-equipped and risk-free.

B．Time-consuming and well-rounded.

C．Cost-effective and widely-recognized.

D．Time-honored and highly-valued.

【3】What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?

A．Praises on Google’s purpose.

B．Arguments against the Google program.

C．Solutions to Google’s problems.

D．Advantages of Google training courses.

【4】What is the author’s attitude to the Google program?

A．Favorable.

B．Intolerant.

C．Skeptical.

D．Ambiguous.

22、Hi Danny,

Greetings from the Great Barrier Reef! I’m riding on a sailing boat with some relatives as I write this. We’re diving here all next week. The reef is located in the Coral Sea that is off the northeast coast of Australia.

The reef is made up of many corals. Corals are very hard and made of many tiny animals called “polyps” that look like underwater flowers. The corals need help to eat. They have a special relationship with other small animals, “algae” (藻类), that take in sunlight and make energy for the coral. It’s the algae that give color to the corals. Because algae need sunlight, the corals are very close to the surface of the water.

Together, the many corals create a magical environment. They make a home for the animals that live in the sea. When I went diving the other day, I saw all types of different animals-dolphins, turtles (海龟) and sea snakes. I was surprised at being able to see some fish I see only in movies, like clown fish (小丑鱼). As I am diving, I can feel the spirit of this magical place. It seems that these animals aren’t surprised to see me. Maybe they think I’m another fish!

Sadly, according to scientists, the Great Barrier Reef is dying because the water is getting warmer due to global warming. As the ocean gets warmer, the algae that live in the corals are cut off from the food they need for making energy. As a result, they leave the corals, and the corals die and lose their color. We see many dead white corals when we dive. We need to stop global warming and keep the water from getting hotter!

See you soon,

Gloria

【1】Where is Gloria writing from?

【3】Why is the coral reef described as “magical”?

A.The author had never been there before.

B.The area can allow the animals to do magical things.

C.It’s another world with many animals and colors.

D.Corals grow only at the Great Barrier Reef.

【4】Why is the writer sad about the future of the corals?

A.She fears they will eventually die from global warming.

B.When corals die, they lose their color and turn to a boring white.

C.Not enough people will have a chance to see this magical place.

D.She’s sad that the corals and algae will break their relationship.

23、We humans like to conquer.

For the same reason that soccer players want to hold the World Cup trophy(奖杯) and tennis players crave a Grand Slam win, mountaineers dream of reaching the highest peak on the planet — Mount Qomolangma, which towers about 8,844 meters above sea level.

“Everybody wants to stand on top of the world,” Mirza Ali from Pakistan who had just “conquered” Mount Qomolangma, told the Los Angeles Times.

However, this desire to conquer has become so strong that we have begun to travel in the wrong direction.

During this year’s climbing season—from March to May—at least 11 climbers died in the Himalayas, making it one of the worst seasons on record. And the fact that many of the climbers were inexperienced is one of the major factors(因素) contributing to the tragedy, according to USA Today.

“They don’t train very hard. They underestimate(低估) Qomolangma,” Jangbu Sherpa, who has been working as a guide on Mount Qomolangma since 2006, told NBC News. “There are lots of climbers who just want to check the box so that they can say they’ve been to the top of the world.”

This ignorant attitude of climbers also leads to other problems—apart from putting their own lives at risk, of course. According to HuffPost, the mountain’s cleaning group collected 12 tons of trash—including food wrappers(包装袋), and oxygen tanks—left behind this climbing season. This once holy(神圣的) and peaceful corner of the world has, as The Atlantic reporter Margret Grebowics put it, “lost its magic”.

Perhaps what we should do now is restore meaning to the activity itself—real meaning. And for Alison Levine, a US mountaineer who reached the summit(山顶) of Mount Qomolangma in 2010, the meaning doesn’t come with the summit itself, but with everything that led her up to it.

“When I did make it to the summit, what I realized is that standing on top of a mountain doesn’t change you and doesn’t change the world,” Levine told the NPR. “It’s really about the journey. The journey is the most important thing on any mountain.”

It’s true that we humans like to conquer. But the first step of conquering anything is probably to learn to conquer our own greed(贪婪) and ignorance.

【1】What does the underlined word “crave” mean?

A．have no interest in

B．have a strong desire for

C．be optimistic about

D．be likely to win

【2】What is a major cause of the climbing tragedy this year, according to USA Today?

A．Not having enough training and experience.

B．Not bringing enough number of oxygen tanks.

C．Not having professional climbing equipment.

D．Not being accustomed to the cold weather.

【3】What matters more to Levine when she climbs?

A．Being on top of the world.

B．Being able to change the world.

C．The journey to reach the summit.

D．The spirit to conquer the summit.

【4】What attitude does the author hold toward climbing Mount Qomolangma?

A．Regretful.

B．Critical.

C．Encouraging.

D．Doubtful.

25、Space exploration has always been the province of __________: The human imagination readily soars where human ingenuity (创造力) struggles to follow. A Voyage to the Moon, often cited as the first science fiction story, was written by Cyrano de Bergerac in 1649. Cyrano was dead and buried for a good three centuries __________the first manned rockets started to fly.

In 1961, when President Kennedy declared that America would send a man to the moon by the decade’s end, those words, too, had a __________ quality. They resonated (共鸣) with optimism and __________ in much the same way as the most famous __________ speech of all, delivered by Martin Luther King Jr. two years later. By the end of the decade, both visions had yielded concrete results and __________ American society. __________, in many ways the two dreams ended up __________ each other.

When the dust settled, the space dreamers lost out. There was no grand __________ to the Apollo missions. The technologically compromised space shuttle program has just come to an end, with no __________. The continuous argument is that __________ are tight, that we have more pressing problems here on Earth. Amid the current concerns about the federal deficit (赤字), reaching toward the stars seems an unnecessary luxury—_________ saving one-thousandth of a single year’s budget would solve our problems.

But human ingenuity struggles on. NASA is developing a series of robotic probes that will get the most value for the money spent. They will serve as modern Magellans, __________ out the solar system for whatever explorers follow, whether man or machine. On the flip side, companies like Virgin Galactic are plotting a bottom-up assault on the space dream by making it a reality to the public. Private spaceflight could lie within __________ of rich civilians in a few years. Another decade or two and it could __________.

The space dreamers end up benefiting all of us — not just because of the way they expand human knowledge, or because of the ________ they produce, but because the two types of dreams support each other. Both Martin Luther King and John Kennedy appealed to the idea that humans can __________ what were once considered great limitations. Today we face seeming challenges in energy, the environment, health care. Tomorrow we will overcome these as well, and the dreamers will deserve a lot of the __________. The more evidence we collect that our species is __________ greatness, the more we will actually achieve it.
