12、 College Is Not HomeThe college years are supposed to be a time for important growth in autonomy(自主性) and the development of adult identity. However, now they are becoming an extended period of adolescence, during which many of todays students and are not shouldered with adult responsibilities.For p
13、revious generations, college was a decisive break from parental control; guidance and support needed to come from people of the same age and from within. In the past two decades, however, continued connection with and dependence on family, thanks to cell phones, email and social media, have increase
14、d significantly. Some parents go so far as to help with coursework. Instead of promoting the idea of college as a passage from the shelter of the family to autonomy and adult responsibility, universities have given in to the idea that they should provide the same environment as that of the home.To p
15、repare for increased autonomy and responsibility, college needs to be a time of exploration and experimentation. This process involves trying on new ways of thinking about oneself both intellectually and personally. While we should provide safe spaces within colleges, we must also make it safe to ex
16、press opinions and challenge majority views. Intellectual growth and flexibility are fostered by strict debate and questioning.Learning to deal with the social world is equally important. Because a college community differs from the family, many students will struggle to find a sense of belonging. I
17、f students rely on administrators to regulate their social behavior and thinking pattern, they are not facing the challenge of finding an identity within a larger and complex community.Moreover, the tendency for universities to monitor and shape student behavior runs up against another characteristi
18、c of young adults: the response to being controlled by their elders. If acceptable social behavior is too strictly defined and controlled, the insensitive or aggressive behavior that administrators are seeking to minimize may actually be encouraged.It is not surprising that young people are likely t
19、o burst out, particularly when there are reasons to do so. Our generation once joined hands and stood firm at times of national emergency. What is lacking today is the conflict between adolescents desire for autonomy and their understanding of an unsafe world. Therefore, there is the desire for thei
20、r dorms to be replacement homes and not places to experience intellectual growth.Every college discussion about community values, social climate and behavior should include recognition of the developmental importance of student autonomy and self-regulation, of the necessary tension between safety an
21、d self-discovery.58. Whats the authors attitude toward continued parental guidance to college students?A. Sympathetic. B. Neutral.C. Supportive. D. Disapproving.59. According to the author, what role should college play?A. To develop a shared identity among students.B. To foster students intellectua
22、l and personal development.C. To provide a safe world without tension for students. D. To define and regulate students social behavior.60. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage?I: Introduction P:Point Sp:Sub-point(次要点) C:ConclusionCA new commodity brings about a highly
23、 profitable,fast-growing industry, urging antitrust (反垄断) regulators to step in to check those who control its flow. A century ago, the resource in question was oil. Now similar concerns are being raised by the giants (巨头) that deal in data, the oil of the digital age. The most valuable firms are Go
24、ogle, Amazon, Facebook and Microsoft. All look unstoppable.Such situations have led to calls for the tech giants to be broken up. But size alone is not a crime. The giants success has benefited consumers. Few want to live without search engines or a quick delivery. Far from charging consumers high p
25、rices, many of these services are free (users pay, in effect, by handing over yet more data). And the appearance of new-born giants suggests that newcomers can make waves, too.But there is cause for concern. The internet has made data abundant, all-present and far more valuable, changing the nature
26、of data and competition. Google initially used the data collected from users to target advertising better. But recently it has discovered that data can be turned into new services: translation and visual recognition, to be sold to other companies. Internet companies control of data gives them enormo
27、us power. So they have a “Gods eye view” of activities in their own markets and beyond.This nature of data makes the antitrust measures of the past less useful. Breaking up firms like Google into five small ones would not stop remaking themselves: in time, one of them would become great again. A ret
28、hink is requiredand as a new approach starts to become apparent, two ideas stand out.The first is that antitrust authorities need to move from the industrial age into the 21st century. When considering a merger (兼并), for example, they have traditionally used size to determine when to step in. They n
29、ow need to take into account the extent of firms data assets (资产) when assessing the impact of deals. The purchase price could also be a signal that an established company is buying a new-borm threat. When this takes place, especially when a new-born company has no revenue to speak of, the regulator
30、s should raise red flags.The second principle is to loosen the control that providers of on-line services have over data and give more to those who supply them.Companies could be forced to reveal to consumers what information they hold and how much money they make from it. Govemments could order the
31、 sharing of certain kinds of data, with users consent.Restarting antitrust for the information age will not be easy. But if governments dont want a data economy controlled by a few giants, they must act soon. 61. Why is there a call to break up giants?A. They dismissed some new-born giantsB. They co
32、llect enormous private dataC. They no longer provide free servicesD. They have controlled the data market 62. What does the technological innovation in Paragraph 3 indicate?A. Data giants technology is very expensiveB. Data can strengthen giants controlling position C. Googles idea is popular among
33、data firmsD. Data can be turned into new services or products 63. By paying attention to firms data assets, antitrust regulators could .A. kill a new threat B. favour bigger firmsC. avoid the size trap D. charge higher prices64. What is the purpose of loosening the giants control of data?A. Small co
34、mpanies could get more opportunities. B. Governments could relieve their financial pressure.C. Consumers could better protect their privacy.D. Big companies could relieve data security pressure.DTwo things changed my life: my mother and a white plastic bike basket. I have thought long and hard about
35、 it and its true. I would be a different person if my mom hadnt turned a silly bicycle accessory into a life lesson I carry with me today.My mother and father were united in their way of raising children, but it mostly fell to my mother to actually carry it out. Looking back, I honestly dont know ho
36、w she did it. Managing the family budget must have been a very hard task, but she made it look effortless. If we complained about not having what another kid did, wed hear something like, “I dont care what so-and-so got for his birthday, you are not getting a TV in your room/a car for your birthday/
37、a lavish sweet-16 party.“ We had to earn our allowance by doing chores around the house. I can still remember how long it took to polish the legs of our coffee table. My brothers can no doubt remember hours spent cleaning the house. Like the two little girls growing up at the White House, we made ou
38、r own beds (no one left the house until that was done) and picked up after ourselves. We had to keep track of our belongings, and if something was lost, it was not replaced.It was summer and, one day, my mother drove me to the bike shop to get a tire fixed and there it was in the window. White, shin
39、y, plastic and decorated with flowers, the basket winked at me and I knew I knew I had to have it.“Its beautiful,“ my mother said when I pointed it out to her. “What a neat basket.“I tried to hold off at first. I played it cool for a short while. But then I guess I couldnt stand it any longer: “Mom,
40、 please can I please, please get it? Ill do extra chores for as long as you say. Ill do anything, but I need that basket. I love that basket. Please, Mom. Please?“I was desperate.“You know,“ she said, gently rubbing my back while we both stared at what I believed was the coolest thing ever, “If you
41、save up you could buy this yourself.“By the time I make enough itll be gone!“Maybe Roger here could hold it for you,“ she smiled at Roger, the bike guy.“He cant hold it for that long, Mom. Someone else will buy it. Please, Mom, please?“There might be another way,“ she said.And so our paying plan unf
42、olded. My mother bought the beautiful basket and put it safely in some hiding place I couldnt find. Each week I eagerly counted my growing savings increased by extra work here and there (washing the car, helping my mother make dinner, delivering or collecting things on my bike that already looked na
43、ked without the basket in front). And then, weeks later, I counted, re-counted and jumped for joy. Oh, happy day! I made it! I finally had the exact amount wed agreed uponDays later the unthinkable happened. A neighborhood girl Id played with millions of times appeared with the exact same basket fix
44、ed to her shiny, new bike that already had all the bells and whistles. I rode hard and fast home to tell my mother about this disaster. This horrible turn of events.And then came the lesson Ive taken with me through my life: “Honey, your basket is extra-special,“ Mom said, gently wiping away my hot
45、tears. “Your basket is special because you paid for it yourself.“65.What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?A. The mother raised her children in an unusual way.B. The children were fond of the US presidents daughters.C. The author came from a well-off family.D. The children enjoyed doing hou
46、sework.66.When the author saw the basket in the window, she _.A. recognized it at once B. went up to the bike guy C. fell in love with it D. stared at her mother67.Why did the author say many “pleases“ to her mother?A. She wanted to be polite to her mother.B. She longed to do extra work.C. She was e
47、ager to have the basket. D. She felt tired after standing too long.68. By using “naked“ (Paragraph 12), the author seems to stress that the basket was _.A. something important to her B. something she could afford C. something she could do without D. something impossible to get 69. To the author, it
48、seemed to be a horrible turn of events that _.A. the basket cost more than she had savedB. someone else had got a basket of the same kind C. something spoiled her paying planD. a neighborhood girl had bought a new bike70. What is the life lesson the author learned from her mother?A. Save money for a
