Instead, AU has designed a media-rich, easy-to-use learning environment through a Learning Management System(LMS).‎ ‎• Discipline ‎ With disciplined work habits, you are likely to succeed as an online student. It is up to you to log on to your course and meet your own deadlines.‎ ‎• Time Management In order to earn competitive grades, plan on spending a minimum of 20-25 hours a week on each course. AU courses operate on a seven-week schedule, with start dates in January, March, May, July, September and November. Students are able to complete two courses per semester by taking one seven-week course at a time.‎ ‎• Professional Connections Many of the AU faculty who teach online have connections to industry, so the online learning environment ensures access to diverse expertise and practice. It includes an extensive network of ‎ professionals in a variety of industries.‎ ‎“I work as an IT manager. And right from the very beginning, every class I took was relevant to what I was doing at work. The wide range of courses gave me a strong foundation for my career development.”‎ — Jim Heilman, Computer Information Systems graduate ‎• Technology It goes without saying that technology plays a vital role in online learning. You will need a high-speed Internet connection and basic computer skills. For specifics, please click here to visit our Technology page.‎ ‎21.How long does it take to complete one course?‎ A.Seven weeks. B.One semester.‎ C.Several months.

B.A college website.‎ C.An academic magazine. D.A local newspaper.‎ B One of the most important things that has happened to me occurred long before I was aware of it. As the story goes, I was three days old and Mom was singing “The Name Game” song to me: “Christine- Bo-Bean-Banana-Fanna-Fo-Feen.” By day four, I was given a new name — Christine-Bo-Bean, or just Bo-Bean to my mother. Now, I am Bo to her and close friends.‎ Why is this nickname so important to me? I once read a book with a passage about True Names which explains that when a person’s true name is spoken, she has a distinct aura (光环) around her. Although I have been Bo to my mother all my life, I recently discovered that my true name is not on my birth certificate; it’s the name that is as unique and memorable as I am.‎ People usually know me as Christine. They still see me as a quiet, bookish child. They don’t ‎ know who I am now. My most recent hopes, fears, goals, dreams and opinions escape their notice; it is easier to think of me as I was. In their minds, they have a box labeled “Christine” in which I fit neatly, and as Christine, I was content with the perfect packaging.‎ Those who call me Bo or Bo-Bean really know me. They remember who I was and realize I have changed. Bo is a tight squeeze in the old “Christine” boxes. The Bo I am is ever-changing, ever-growing and ever-learning.‎ When I was Christine, I was quiet, and easily scared. I feared groups, meeting new people and sharing my opinions. I was more comfortable with a book than my best friend. As Christine, I thought everyone was better than I was.‎ As Bo, I still love my books, but I want to discuss them. As Bo, my dream is to live where I can experience new things and meet new people. I dream about being alone on a stage lit by a single spotlight; I have that confidence now. I am equal to those I once saw as better than me.‎ A name shouldn’t make such a difference, but sometimes, when a person finds his or her True Name, they develop a new shine visible to friends, family and especially themselves.‎ I can’t always be Bo. Sometimes exposing myself is still scary and I feel too nervous; I want to hide in those old boxes. Mostly, however, I am ready for the world. So, just call me Bo.‎ ‎24.When was the author given a nickname?‎ A.When she was three years old.‎ B.On the fourth day after she was born.‎ C.On the arrival of some close friends.‎ D.When mom first sang “The Name Game”.‎ ‎25.What do the people know about the author as Christine?‎ A.They think the author is active and crazy.‎ B.They care about the author’s most recent feelings.‎ C.They don’t realize the author has changed.‎ D.They don’t know the author has a new name.‎ ‎26.What kind of person was the author in the past?‎ A.She showed no interest in reading.‎ B.She took pleasure in finding new things.‎ C.She loved reading and sharing books with friends.‎ D.She lacked confidence and preferred to be alone.‎ ‎27.What can be a suitable title for the text?‎ A.Bo — the True Name B.A Unique Name C.Remember the Past D.The Meaning of Nickname C If you’ve spent any amount of time boating, fishing, or bird-watching at lakes and rivers, you have most likely seen fishes jumping out of the water. I have seen it many times. Certainly, fishes will exit water in desperate attempts to escape enemies. Dolphins take advantage of the behavior, forming a circle and catching the frightened fishes in midair. But just as we may run fast from fun or from fear, different emotions might motivate fishes to jump.‎ Mobula rays (蝠鲼) aren’t motivated by fear when they throw their impressive bodies — up to a seventeen-foot wingspan (the distance from the end of one wing to the end of the other) and a ton in weight — skyward in leap of up to ten feet. They do it in schools of hundreds. They usually land on their bellies, but sometimes they land on their backs. Some scientists think it might be a way of removing parasites (寄生虫). But I think that the rays are enjoying themselves.‎ In the clear waters of Florida’s Chassahowitzka National Wildlife Refuge, I watched several schools of fifty or more mullets(鲻鱼)moving in beautiful formation. Their well-built bodies were most evident when they leaped from the water. Most of the time I saw one or two leaps by a fish, but one made a series of seven. They usually land on their sides. Each jump was about a foot clear of the water and two to three feet in length.‎ Nobody knows for sure why the fish leaps. One idea is that they do it to take in oxygen. The idea is supported by the fact that mullets leap more when the water is lower in oxygen, but is challenged by the likelihood that jumping costs more energy than is gained by breathing air. It is hard to imagine they will feel any fresher when back in water.‎ Might these fishes also be leaping for fun? There is some new evidence. Gordon M. Burghardt recently published accounts of a dozen types of fishes leaping repeatedly, sometimes over floating objects — sticks, plants, sunning turtle — for no clear reason other than entertainment.‎ ‎28.What can we say about the dolphins in Paragraph 1?‎ A.They have great escaping skills. B.They are easily frightened.‎ C.They are very clever. D.They love jumping.‎ ‎29.What do the ray and the mullet have in common when jumping?‎ A.Both do it in groups. B.Both land on their bellies.‎ C.Both jump many feet out of water. D.Both make leaps one after the other.‎ ‎30.What’s the author’s attitude towards the idea mentioned in Paragraph 4?‎ A.Anxious. B.Indifferent. C.Approving. D.Questionable.‎ ‎31.Why do fishes leap according to Gordon?‎ A.To remove parasites. B.To amuse themselves.‎ C.To take in more oxygen. D.To escape enemies.‎ D An advance in electronic publishing could make the ebook you are reading seem as dated as a silent film. Publishers hope to explore the growing success of ebooks by releasing versions with added soundtracks and musical accompaniments.‎ The noises in the first multimedia books released in Britain on Friday include rain hitting a window in a Sherlock Holmes tale. When the plot of a book reaches the most exciting part, background scores will create tension. In America, works by Shakespeare and Jane Austen have already been released with music and background noise so that, for example, readers can hear tea cups clinking in Mr. Darcy’s garden as they read Pride and Prejudice.‎ Supporters argue that sound effects are the next logical development for ebooks and will add excitement for younger readers. Critics, however, will argue that the noise will ruin the simple pleasure of having the imagination stimulated by reading.‎ Caroline Michel, chief executive of the literary agency, said the new generation of computer-literate readers was used to multiple sensory input. She said, “Young people have split computer screens where they may be watching television and replying to an email at the same time. If that’s what the market wants then we should respond to the market.”‎ Booktrack’s sound effects work by estimating the user’s reading speed. Each time you “turn” a page, the software reassesses where you have reached in the text and times the sounds to switch on accordingly. If the soundtrack becomes out of synch (同步), a click on any word will reset it.‎ Some authors fear that a soundtrack could destroy the peace and quiet of libraries and ruin the pleasure of reading. David Nicholls, author of One Day, the bestseller now released as a film, said, “This sounds like the opposite of reading. I have enough trouble reading an ebook because I’m constantly distracted by emails.”‎ Stuart MacBride, the crime writer whose novel Shatter the Bones was an ebook bestseller, sells 18% of his books as electronic downloads. He said, “If I’m reading, I will do the noise in my head. I don't need someone to tell me what tea cups clinking sounds like. That would irritate me.”‎ ‎32.What’s the passage mainly about?‎ A.Opinions about ebooks with soundtracks.‎ B.Response to the need of the book market.‎ C.Reasons for traditional ebooks becoming outdated.‎ D.Suggestions on encouraging readers’ imagination.‎ ‎33.What do publishers expect an ebook soundtrack to do?‎ A.Help to release an ebook as a film.‎ B.Make readers improve reading speed.‎ C.Add tension at a book’s exciting point.‎ D.Get readers familiar with the background.‎ ‎34.What does the underlined sentences mean in Paragraph 6?‎ A.David enjoyed the pleasure of reading an ebook in the library. ‎ B.Soundtrack would affect David’s concentration on reading an ebook.‎ C.David was constantly fascinated by checking emails when reading an ebook. ‎ D.Soundtrack would destroy the content and characters of the story.‎ ‎35.What do we know about Stuart MacBride?‎ A.He was a person who was easy to get irritated.‎ B.He didn’t like the clinking sounds of tea cups.‎ C.He was the most famous writer about crime stories.‎ D.He imagined sounds about the story when reading.‎ 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填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Run! Lunch-Delivery Men!‎ It’s lunch time, and Guo Ziyang is on a mission: deliver seven hot meal orders in an hour.‎ He dashes into a downtown highrise, carrying a plastic container of hot beef noodles. There is no time to wait for the right elevator. He hops into the first one that opens, jumps out at the last stop and begins running up the stairs. After a quick handoff to the customer, he races down 20 flights. 36 Across China’s biggest cities, the scene has become as familiar as crowded subways. 37 Meals appear with just a few taps on a smartphone. With the major delivery services offering similar pricing strategies and food choices, the burden of competition has fallen largely on the speed of the delivery people, popularly known as Waimai Xiaoge, or “Brother Takeaway”.‎ Guo said he wolfs down four or five steamed buns before starting work every morning. “You’ll need the energy for various delivery missions,” he said. “Sometimes, the buildings you deliver to don’t have elevators. 38 Then, you have to climb ten flights of stairs.”‎ Guo works around Shanghai’s central business district. He joined Ele. me only last year. 39 With a foodwarmer box tied to his scooter, Guo tears through traffic, rushes past pedestrians and avoid bumps that might spill soup dishes. In less than two hours, he has made stops at a hospital, a hair salon, a hotel room and several highrises. Six orders an hour is the norm for the lunchtime rush, but Guo said he is sometimes called upon to deliver ten meals. “ 40 You just have to apologize.” he said.‎ Nevertheless, Guo said he thrives on deadline pressure. “I’m the kind of person who likes challenging work,” he added.‎ A. That’s really difficult, and if you arrive late, customers get angry.‎ B. One order down, six to go.‎ C. The tradition of going out for a meal has been under pressure from the fast pace of urban life.‎ D. Sometimes, the elevators are crowded and take a long time.‎ E. Sometimes, people ask them to pick up cigarettes, alcohol and other items, which they aren’t supposed to do.‎ F. The arrival of fooddelivery apps has transformed the country’s lunchtime culture.‎ G. But he has memorized the layouts of all the buildings in his area.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用 (共四节,满分65分)‎ 第一节 完形填空 (共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分) ‎ 阅读下面短文,从文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ Everyone should go to his or her 50th high school reunion.

Should I change it for a big enough one?‎ M: Well, let’s go through all those things first… Oh, no, you’ve got six pairs of jeans here, and, wait, too many T-shirts! And five hats! You’re only going for two weeks, not two months or two years.‎ W: OK, I’ll take two pairs of jeans and three T-shirts and two hats. How’s that?‎ M: That helps a bit. Are you taking a raincoat? The summer can be pretty wet in Asia. A raincoat is a good idea.‎ W: OK, I’ll pack one. Hey, you’re useful to have around.‎ ‎(Text 9)‎ W: Good afternoon, Mr. Miller. Did you have a good rest? How are you feeling?‎ M: Yes, I had a good rest, thank you. I’m still feeling quite weak, though.‎ W: Did you enjoy your lunch?‎ M: Not really. I thought it was all pretty tasteless.‎ W: That’s because of your salt-free diet. It can be very tasteless in the beginning.‎ M: Am I on a salt-free diet? Why?‎ W: Didn’t your doctor explain it to you? I’m sorry. You’re on a salt-free diet because of your disease. A salt-free diet means there’s no salt added to any food you eat.‎ M: I see.‎ W: You wanted to see Dr. Smith today, didn’t you?‎ M: Yes, but he hasn’t been here yet.‎ W: At the moment, he’s still in a meeting. I can leave a message for him, asking him to come and see you as soon as he can.‎ M: It isn’t that urgent.‎ W: In that case I can call him tomorrow morning as soon as I come to work.‎ M: OK, thank you.‎ ‎(Text 10)‎ M: Hello, everyone. Today I’d like to talk about a shoemaker. Bill Bird is an old shoemaker. He is really too old but he is very skillful. Now he cannot make shoes fast enough because the number of his customers is increasing—and he charges more than£300 a pair! Customers travel hundreds of kilometers to his London shoe store or to his workshop in the countryside to have their feet measured. He makes shoes for people with unusual sizes: very large, very small, very broad or very narrow. The shoes are at least as stylish as those found in ordinary shops. Mr. Bird says that his biggest problem is that he cannot find skilled workers. Young people all seem to prefer to work with computers these days. We will lose the necessary skills soon because there are fewer and fewer shoemakers nowadays. He is 67, and he wants to teach young people everything he knows about making shoes. He says it’s a good job, and a lot of people want to buy beautiful shoes specially made for them. He started in the business 30 years ago and now he employs three other people. His customers pay about £500 for their first pair of shoes. He says his customers come because they want comfortable shoes which are exactly the right size. Extra pairs of shoes cost between£320 and£450, as it takes one employee a whole week to make just one shoe.‎
