Zones The library is divided into different zones. The upper floor is a quiet zone with over a thousand places for silent reading, and places where you can sit and work with your own computer. The reading places consist mostly of tables and chairs. The ground floor is the zone where you can talk. Here you can find sofas and armchairs for group work. Computers You can use your own computer to connect to the Wi-Fi specially prepared for notebook computers; you can also use library computers, which contain the most commonly used applications, such as Microsoft Office. They are situated in the area known as the Experimental Field on the ground floor. Group-study places If you want to discuss freely without disturbing others, you can book a study room or sit at a table on the ground floor. Some study rooms are for 2-3 people and others can hold up to 6-8 people. All rooms are marked on the library maps. There are 40 group-study rooms that must be booked via the website. To book, you need an active University account and a valid University card. You can use a room three hours per day, nine hours at most per week. Storage of Study Material The library has lockers for students to store course literature. When you have obtained at least 40 credits(学分), you may rent a locker and pay 400 SEK for a year’s rental period. Rules to be Followed Mobile phone conversations are not permitted anywhere in the library. Keep your phone on silent as if you were in a lecture and exit the library if you need to receive calls. Please note that food and fruit are forbidden in the library, but you are allowed to have drinks and sweets with you. 21.The library’s upper floor is mainly for students to ___________. A. read in a quiet place B. have group discussions C. take comfortable seats D. get their computers fixed 22.Library computers on the ground floor_____________. A. help students with their field experiments B. contain software essential for schoolwork C. are for those who want to access the Wi-Fi D. are mostly used for filling out application forms 23.What should NOT be brought into the library? A. Mobile phones B. Orange juice C. Candy D. Sandwiches B When her five daughters were young, Helen An always told them that there was strength in unity(团结). To show this, she held up one chopstick, representing one person. Then she easily broke it into two pieces. Next, she tied several chopsticks together, representing a family. She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks. This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up. Helen An and her family own a large restaurant business in California. However, when Helen and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975, they didn’t have much money. They moved their family to San Francisco. There they joined Danny’s mother, Diana, who owned a small Italian sandwich shop. Soon afterwards, Helen and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant. The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young. However, Helen did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard. Eventually the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves, but one by one, the daughters returned to work in the family business. They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other, they worked together to make the business successful. Daughter Elizabeth explains, “Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity, and to have unity we must have peace. Without the strength of the family, there is no business.” Their expanding business became a large corporation in 1996, with three generations of Ans working together. Now the Ans’ corporation makes more than $20 million each year. Although they began with a small restaurant, they had big dreams, and they worked together. Now they are a big success. 24. Helen tied several chopsticks together to show___________. A.the strength of family unity B.the difficulty of growing up C.the advantage of chopsticks D.the best way of giving a lesson 25.We can learn from Paragraph 2 that the An family__________. A.started a business in 1975 B.left Vietnam without much money C.bought a restaurant in San Francisco D.opened a sandwich shop in Los Angeles 26.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A.How to Run a Corporation B.Strength Comes from Peace C.How to Achieve a Big Dream D.Family Unity Builds Success C Recently some articles claim the word “selfie” as one of the most annoying words. But I’d like to offer that maybe it isn’t not so bad. The “selfie” is used to describe the self taken photo, often from a smart phone. Women and men alike adorn their Instagram, Facebook and Twitter accounts with these pictures, sometimes with puckered lips or large smiles. In fact, the selfie has become so widely known that over 31 million photos on Instagram are captioned with the selfie. Let’s think about it. Someone takes about 10 selfies each time they do, and they only end up posting one or two of those. They pick the one that they feel makes them look the best. Isn’t that beautiful? In that one picture, someone has given him or herself confidence. Self-image is important. In society today, we are so often consumed with what society tells us is perfect. But maybe, with that one selfie, we feel like we fit that bill. We feel handsome, beautiful, confident, smart, happy and content. For that moment, everything bad or terrible that has ever happened to us is erased, because that smile or that pucker is what gives us the determination to love ourselves. I saw a spoken word poem recently and the young man said: If I ask you what you love the answers will most likely roll off your tongue. You love to read. You love to write. You love birds, music, tattoos...Your mom, your brother, your sister, your daughter, your best friend, your dog. How long do you think you could go on and on before you said “I love myself”? That statement hit me like a ton of bricks. I’ve struggled with confidence all of my life. I still do. And in no way am I saying that taking a selfie is a gateway to that confidence. However, the selfie does deserve some credit for allowing individuals to express themselves. Pamela Rutledge agrees, stating, “There are many more photographs available now of real people than models.” 27. In the opinion of the writer, selfie____________. A. is an annoying phenomenon online B. makes a person become self-centered C. is just a fashion among teenagers D. gives a person a sense of confidence 28. According to the writer, we live in a society where_____________. A. being perfect is highly valued B. people judge others by their appearance C. confidence is based on one’s self-images D. beauty almost decides everything really 29. The writer mentioned a poem to stress_______________. A. the power of real love B. the need to love ourselves C. the kinds of love we have D. the endless love we get 30. What Pamela said suggested that_______________. A. selfie gets models to take more photos B. selfie helps more people look like models C. selfie provides more photos of real people D. selfie causes models to be out of work 第二节 （共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 You are one of the most familiar faces in class, not because you are funny or have great note-taking abilities but because you ask the most number of questions. _____31_____ It is important to have a good way to ask questions. Here are a few tips for improving your questioning skills: Be clear about what you want to know. Be clear about what you want to know and frame your question accordingly. _____32_____ If you beat around the bush, your teachers won’t be entirely sure what it is that you haven’t understood, or need an explanation for. ______33______ If you are uncertain about a particular subject, make it clear when it is being discussed. If you put your question in context(语境), you can be sure of it. Because questions often open up new avenues within a subject, doing this would benefit the whole class. Don’t hesitate to talk to your teacher after class. ______34_____ Therefore, if you feel uncomfortable about asking a question in front of your classmates, wait till the class is over. This will probably put you more at ease. Write down your questions. _____35_____ They may appear when you’re studying, reading or taking notes. Note them down on a piece of paper so that you won’t forget to ask them later. This can also make sure that you don’t have any unanswered questions when the exam approaches. A. Don’t ask more questions once a time. B. Questions may appear at any time. C. Being curious is not a bad quality. D. You may think it is good to ask no questions. E. Ask questions related to the context. F. A question needs to be easy to be understood and to the point. G.
