第二部分：（共两节，满分45分）： 第一节：阅读理解 （共20小题； 每小题2分，满分40分） Every country has its heroes. The heroes are the people the nation and especially the young people admire. If you get a list of the heroes of a nation, it will tell you the potential（潜势）of that nation. If today in America, you ask the high school students to list their heroes, their choice would probably fall into three groups. The first group of heroes would be the rock stars —the people connected with rock music. There is no doubt that such people do have talent but one wonders if one should hold up rock stars as a model (推举…为榜样). The rock stars too often are involved with drugs and their personal life is not all that good. The rock stars are rich and wear the latest fashion styles. However, one should seek more in a hero than such things as money and good clothes. A second type of hero for the American youth is the sports star. Again you have a person who has a great ability in one area — SPORTS. However, too often the personal life of the sports star is a bit of a mess. Too frequently drugs and drinking are a part of life of the sports star. A third type of hero is the TV or movie star. This person may have lots of acting talent and is quite handsome. However, the personal life of too many actors is quite sad and they should not be held up as a model for young people. Today, the rock star, the athlete and the actor all have become the models of the youth in America. Really, do you hear a young person say that his hero is a doctor, a teacher, or a scientist? These people are not rich and do not wear fashionable clothes. However, they are talented people who work hard to make the world a better place for everyone. What is really sad is that the young try to imitate their heroes. They like to wear the same clothes and follow their styles. If the heroes of today for the American youngsters are only rock stars, athletes and actors, the future does not look too bright. 1. The hero discussed in this article means a person ______. A. who has done something brave B. who plays an important role in a play C. whom people greatly admire D. who rides the waves and moves with the tides 2. What is true of the groups mentioned in this article? A. They are not fright but are good-looking. B. They are rich but are strict with themselves. C. They are talented in some area but lead an indecent life. D. They are perfect in every way. 3. American young people will not admire ______. A. a university professor B. a popular singer C. a football player D. a film actress 4. According to the writer, people should hold up as their model those______. A. who are rich and wear the latest fashion clothes B. whose personal life is good C. who can express people’s feelings D. who work in the interests (利益) of the people 5. What is the writer’s attitude towards American youth’s admiration for their heroes? A. He is understanding. B. He is critical. C. He is angry. D. He is uninterested.

There are many ways to find a job. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses. Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers. Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month. Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called “What Color is Your Parachute (降落伞)?” by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career (职业) since it was first published in nineteen seventy. Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their advantages, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job. 1. What is the passage mainly about? A. Finding a job. B. College students’ part-time jobs. C. Craigslist Web site.
