　　Passage Three

　　Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfastis one life’s essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have allbeen told, and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family carbefore starting a trip.

　　But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by nomeans a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast.Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures are available, the numberof people who didn’t have breakfast, increased by 33 percent.

　　For those who feel pain of guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there issome good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adultsespecially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. “Going withoutbreakfast does not affect performance,” said Arrold E. Bender, former professorof the nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, “nor does giving peoplebreakfast improve performance.”

　　Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance issurprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, notadults, “The literature”, says one researcher, Dr. Erresto at the University ofTexas, “is poor”.

　　71. The latest year for which figures could be obtained is _______.

　　A. the year the author wrote thearticle B. 1977

　　C. any year between 1997 and1983 D. 1983

　　72. For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that _______.

　　A. several studies have been done in the past few years

　　B. the omission of breakfast does no harm to one’s health

　　C. adults have especially made studies in this field

　　D. eating little in the morning is good for health

　　73. “…nor does giving people breakfast improve performance” means ______.

　　A. anyone without breakfast does improve his performance

　　B. not giving people breakfast improve performance

　　C. having breakfast does not improve performance, either

　　D. people having breakfast do improve their performance

　　74. The word “literature” in the last sentence refers to _______.

　　A. stories, poems, plays,etc. B. written works on a particular subject

　　C. any printedmaterial D. the modern literature of America

　　75. What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that _______.

　　A. breakfast does not affect performance

　　B. Dr.Erresto is engaged in research work at an institution of higherlearning

　　C. not eating breakfast might affect the health of children

　　D. Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in London

　　Passage Four

　　About 35% of all high school graduates in America continue their education inan institution of higher learning. The word college is used to refer to eithera college or a university. These institutions offer four-year programs thatlead to a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor Science (B.S.) degree. Somestudents attend a junior college (providing only a two-year program) for one totwo years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore (二年级生) or junior (三年级生).

　　It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a privateone. Most private schools require strict entrance examinations and a high gradepoint average (GPA), as well as specific college prep classes in high school.Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous privateschools are very expensive. Poorer students can sometimes attend, however, byearning scholarships. Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters ordoctoral degrees in grad (graduate) school. Occupations in certain fields suchas law or medicine require such advanced studies.

　　Since college costs are very high, most students work at part-time jobs. Somehave full-time jobs and go to school part-time. Often some will take five ormore years to complete a four-year program because of money / job demands ontheir time.

　　While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student’s time,most still enjoy social activities. Sports, dances, clubs, movies, and playsare all very popular. However, gathering together for long, philosophical talksat a favorite meeting place on or near the university is probably the mostpopular activity.

　　C. Only by earningscholarships. D. All of above.

　　79. The American college students like to _______ most of all.

　　A. discuss problems onphilosophy B. play balls
