Alongside peers(同辈)from around the world, you’ll be introduced to college life as you attend classes, live on campus, and enjoy fun outings and activities. ‎ ‎◆Learning without limits ‎ Biology, physics, law, writing and philosophy — these are just a few of the 30-plus courses you can choose from in each session. In our noncredit classes, we set aside grades so that you can fully commit to your growth as a well-rounded student. Class sizes typically range from 14 to 18 students to encourage interactive learning. ‎ ‎◆Living at Harvard ‎ When you attend the Pre-College Program, you’ll live in a historic undergraduate house, near Harvard Square. You will be with your fellow Pre-College students, resident directors, and proctors who provide support. You’ll also enjoy meals in one ‎ of Harvard’s dining halls, which are a short walk from Harvard Yard and provide many options for a variety of dietary needs. ‎ ‎◆Thriving outside the classroom ‎ The summer Pre-College Program offers many mentally challenging co-curricular(补充课程的)activities beyond the classroom. With faculty and Harvard-affiliated experts, you will have the opportunity to participate in workshops on topics like the psychology of color-blindness, classic literature from around the world and science of happiness. From our Cambridge scavenger hunt to a trip to the Sand Sculpting Festival at America’s first public beach, there’s no shortage of fun activities in the Pre-College Program. ‎ ‎21.

To recommend courses. ‎ B Like toolmaking, teaching was once thought to be an exclusive(独有的)capacity of the human mind. It is not actually.‎ ‎“Teaching” requires this: one individual must take time from their own task to demonstrate and instruct with effort and the student must learn a new skill. That’s a tall order.‎ When a young chimpanzee watches a skilled adult and then imitates (模仿), that’s learning. But the adult has not taken time specifically to instruct, so it is not teaching. In the honeybees’ amazing dance, the dancer takes time to indicate information about a source of food, but observers learn no new skill. They do take time to show, but they do not pass on new skills to learners.‎ Dolphins teach. Atlantic spotted dolphin mothers sometimes free a caught fish in the presence of their youngsters and let their youngsters chase it, catching it again if it’s getting away. Dolphin youngsters also position themselves alongside mothers who are scanning sandy bottoms for hidden fish, and the mother spends extra time demonstrating.‎ Other teachers include: housecats who bring back live prey and let their young learn to catch it, and meerkats (猫鼬)who first bring to their growing young dead scorpions (蝎子), then disabled ones, to demonstrate how to remove the poisonous part on their tails.‎ Like toolmaking and teaching, imitation is also considered to reflect high intelligence. In South Africa lived a baby dolphin named Dolly. One day while she ‎ was just six months old, Dolly was watching a trainer standing at the window smoking a cigarette, blowing puffs of smoke. Dolly swam to her mother, got a mouthful of milk, then returned to the window and released a cloud of milk that surrounded her head. The trainer was “absolutely astonished”.‎ Somehow Dolly came up with the idea of using milk to represent smoke. Using one thing to represent something else isn’t just imitation. It is art. (326 words)‎ ‎24. What does the underlined phrase “a tall order” probably mean in paragraph 2?‎ A. A clear instruction. B. A high risk. ‎ C. A difficult requirement. D. A useful purpose.‎ ‎25. What do we know about honeybees’ dance?‎ A. Presenting. B. Learning. C. Imitating. D. Teaching.‎ ‎26. What can we infer about animals that can teach?‎ A. Bees show their dance to younger generations. ‎ B. Housecats teach in a way similar to dolphins.‎ C. Young dolphins must learn how to free a fish. ‎ D. Meerkats have poisonous parts on the tails.‎ ‎27. Why does the author use Dolly’s example?‎ A. To prove smoking can affect other animals.‎ B. To explain dolphins are capable of making art.‎ C. To show animals can be surprisingly intelligent.‎ D. To stress milk is to dolphins what smoking is to men.‎ C When I was in fourth grade, I worked part-time as a paperboy. Mrs. Stanley was one of my customers. She'd watch me coming down her street, and by the time I’d biked up to her doorstep, there'd be a cold drink waiting. I’d sit and drink while she talked Mrs. Stanley talked mostly about her dead husband Mr. Stanley and I went shopping this morning, "she’d say. The first time she said that，soda(汽水) went up my nose.‎ I told my father how Mrs. Stanley talked as if Mr. Stanley were still alive. Dad said she was probably lonely, and that I I ought to sit and listen and nod my head and smile, and maybe she'd work it out of her system. So that's what I did, and it turned out Dad was right. After a while she seemed content to leave her husband over at the cemetery(墓地)‎ I finally quit delivering newspapers and didn't see Mrs. Stanley for several years. Then we crossed paths at a church fund- raiser(募捐活动). She was spooning mashed potatoes and looking happy. Four years before, she’d had to offer her paperboy a drink to have someone to talk with. Now she had friends. Her husband was gone, but life went on.‎ I live in the city now, and my paperboy is a lady named Edna with three kids. She asks me how I’m doing. When I don’t say “fine”, she sticks around hear my problems. She's lived I in the city most of her life, but she knows about community Community isn’t so much a place as it is a state of mind. You find it whenever people ask how you're doing because they care, and not because they're getting paid to do so. Sometimes it’s good to just smile, nod your head and listen ‎28. Why did soda go up the author's nose one time A. He was talking fast. B. He was shocked C. He was in a hurry D. He was absent-minded ‎29. Why did the author sit and listen to Mrs. Stanley according to Paragraph 3?‎ A. He enjoyed the drink B. He wanted to be helpful C. He took the chance to rest. D. He tried to please his dad ‎30. Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “ work it out of her system”?‎ A. recover from her sadness B. move out of the neighborhood C. turn to her old friends D speak out about her past ‎31. What does the author think people in a community should do?‎ A. Open up to others. B. Depend on each other C. Pay for other’s help D. Care about one another D A build-it-yourself solar still（蒸馏器） is one of the best ways to obtain drinking water in areas where the liquid is not readily available. Developed by two doctors in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, it’s an excellent water collector. Unfortunately, you must carry the necessary equipment with you, since it’s all but impossible to find natural substitutes. The only components required, though, are a 5’5’ sheet of clear or slightly milky plastic, six feet of plastic tube, and a container— perhaps just a drinking cup — to catch the water. These pieces can be folded into a neat little pack and fastened on your belt.‎ To construct a working still, use a sharp stick or rock to dig a hole four feet across and three feet deep. Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the water catcher’s productivity. Place your cup in the deepest part of the hole. Then lay the tube in place so that one end rests all the way in the cup and the rest of the line runs up — and out — the side of the hole.‎ Next, cover the hole with the plastic sheet, securing the edges of the plastic with dirt and weighting the sheet’s center down with a rock. The plastic should now form a cone(圆锥体) with 45-degree-angled sides. The low point of the sheet must be centered directly over, and no more than three inches above, the cup.‎ The solar still works by creating a greenhouse under the plastic. Ground water evaporates (蒸发) and collects on the sheet until small drops of water form, run down the material and fall off into the cup. When the container is full, you can suck the refreshment out through the tube, and won’t have to break down the still every time you need a drink.‎ ‎32.What do we know about the solar still equipment from the first paragraph?‎ A. It’s delicate. B. It’s expensive. C. It’s complex. D. It’s portable ‎33.What does the underlined phrase “the water catcher” in paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A. The tube B. The still C. The hole D. The cup ‎34.What’s the last step of constructing a working solar still?‎ A. Dig a hole of a certain size B. Put the cup in place C. Weight the sheet’s center down D. Cover the hole with the plastic sheet ‎35.When a solar still works, drops of water come into the cup form .‎ A. the plastic tube B. outside the hole C. the open air D. beneath the sheet 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。‎ Thousands of college students have part-time jobs and nobody wants to become a slave to graduation debt. 36 If you are one of those people, here are some small business ideas for you to try out.‎ ‎●Tutoring Make use of your strong understanding of a specific subject and become a tutor. 37 All you need to do is log in, sign up, and specify the subjects you’re good at, and the employer will match you with students. You can work online with learners from middle school to college level.‎ ‎●Blogging If you wouldn’t mind sharing your knowledge or life with other people, then this option is right for you. You can earn some cash by starting a blog. To make your blog a money-making machine, you need to gain much blog traffic. 38 If you succeed in getting a lot of subscribers, you’ll start making cash quickly.‎ ‎●Residential and Commercial Cleaning Services Every business aims to satisfy a particular need of their customers. 39 Before moving into a new place, people usually hire a house cleaner to tidy it up. Some people are just too busy to clean their homes or offices themselves. So， they use cleaning services. This is money waiting to be made.‎ ‎●Graphic Design ‎ 40 If you’re a student majoring in art, design or a relative field, you can start a small design business that can provide such service. The quality of your products and design will determine the number of customers that will run after you. If you become successful in gaining a lot of returning customers, you might even make this your full time business after college.‎ A. Tutoring chances are rare in college.‎ B. There are websites that offer such services.‎ C. Let people know about your cleaning service.‎ D. So, look around and find out what that particular need is.‎ E.
