Davis graduated from Trinity College last spring. Despite a tempting(诱人的)internship(实习期)from Goldman Sachs that thousands of people dream about. Davis chose to ride a bike across the US to interview environmental experts. Davis wasn’t a born environmentalist. To prove his bike ride, he had to find a “trendy(新潮的), sexy and good cause”. The cause was climate change. But Davis became more concerned than ever about this issue after the cross-country bike ride. He read hundreds of books on climate change and environmental consulting. Now, he works for non-profitable organizations and serves as a consultant for energy efficiency. One of his messages during his talk, “shopping with a moral in mind” occurred in my mind again and again throughout the day. Facing two similar products in a market, do we stop and read the back before throwing the product into our cart(推车)? We all live in a fast-paced society, but it doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t take a minute to choose a product that’s safer for our bodies and better for the environment. Davis made me know how important it is to be a smart consumer, by supporting organic(有机的)food and green products instead of only looking at the brands. With little age gap and his unique way of presenting serious messages in a light tone, Davis captured the attention of most non “hardcore(中坚的)environmentalists” students. Davis said, “Working for a good cause makes me feel better than being an investment(投资)banker. ” 56. The bike ride across the US___________. A. realized Davis’s long-time dream of finding out more about climate change B. had Davis regretting refusing the internship from Goldman Sachs C. made Davis all the more fascinated by the issue of climate change D. satisfied Davis because he had made it trendy and profitable 【解析】选C。细节理解题。由第三段的“But Davis became more concerned than ever about this issue after the cross-country bike ride. He read hundreds of books on climate change and environmental consulting. Now, he works for non-profitable organizations and serves as a consultant for energy efficiency. ”可知C项正确。 57. “Shopping with a moral in mind” means that_________. A. one should be a smart consumer by calculating the product’s value against price B. we should stop and read the instructions about calories or health ingredients C. we should choose more environmentally-friendly products D. it’s a good point to buy brand products 【解析】选C。推理判断题。第五段“. . . Davis made me know how important it is to be a smart consumer, by supporting organic food and green products instead of only looking at the brands. ”详细说明了什么是“Shopping with a moral in mind”，因此C项为最佳选项。 58. From the text, we can see the author is________. A. a college student who is seeking advice about his career B. interested in getting a job in Goldman Sachs C. a fresh-out-of-college graduate D. an enthusiastic environmentalist 【解析】选D。推理判断题。由第一段“As part of the environmental group on campus, my friends and I recently invited a recent college graduate, Colin Davis, to lecture about his deeds in climate change. ”可知作者是一个对环保充满热情的在校大学生，故选D。 59. It can be inferred from the passage that________. A. nowadays American young people prefer working for a good cause to a high-paid company B. Davis did a great job in raising environmental awareness C. you have to be rich enough to support organic food D. brand products are not always quality products 【解析】选B。推理判断题。由最后一段“With little age gap and his unique way of presenting serious messages in a light tone, Davis captured the attention of most non ‘hardcore environmentalists’ students. ”可知戴维斯鼓励了更多的人加入到了环保队伍中来，故B项正确。 (B) A college education can be very costly in the United States, especially at a private school. Rising costs have led more and more families to borrow money to help pay for college. There are different federal loans(贷款)and private loans for students and parents. Interest rates on some of these loans will go up on July first. As borrowing has increased, there are growing concerns that many students graduate with too much debt. In 1993, less than one-half of graduates from four-year colleges had student loans. Now two-thirds of them do. Their average loan debt when they graduate is 19, 000 dollars. The Project on Student Debt is an action group that collects numbers from reports. It notes that averages do not present the full picture. For example, in 2004, one-fourth of students graduated with more than 25, 000 dollars in debt. And that did not include borrowing from their parents. The Project on Student Debt says parents as well as students are borrowing more to pay for college. Students can expect to take about ten years to pay back their loans. Repayment does not begin until after they are out of school. Higher borrowing limits have helped push up student debts. Students from all economic(经济的)levels are borrowing more. Corrected for inflation(通货膨胀), student loans have increased around sixty percent in ten years. Researchers say one effect is that the higher the debts, the more likely graduates are to look only for high paying jobs. That means there is less chance they will take jobs in areas like teaching or other public service. A study done in 2002 for a major student lender found that debts can also affect lives in other ways. Some students paying back their college loans said they delayed buying their first house. Some delayed marriage or having children. 60. What is probably the best title for the passage? A. Costly College, Worried Parents B. The Project on Student Debt C. Out of College, but Already in Debt D. College Graduates, Ten-years in Debt 【解析】选C。标题选择题。通读文章可知，文章主要叙述的是大学生学费高昂，在毕业时负债累累的现状，因此C为最佳答案；而其他答案有的只抓住某个事实，甚至包含不正确的信息，如D。 61. According to the passage, we know it is NOT true that___. A. both students and parents borrow money from banks to help pay for college B. the average numbers collected from the report sometimes are not true C. high debts cause some graduates to decline low paying jobs D. students are getting bigger loans to pay for college than before 【解析】选B。推理判断题。注意本题要求找出不符合文章的话。从第五段可知，学生和家长都向银行贷款，所以A项与原文相符。B项是针对原文中第四段“It notes that averages do not present the full picture. ”这句来考查的，这句话是说平均数字并不能完全说明问题，但并不是说平均数字是错误的，所以B项是对原句的曲解，所以是正确答案。C项符合倒数第二段。根据文中第七段提到的Students from all economic levels are borrowing more. 可知D项符合原文。 62. Which of the following may be one of the causes of the rise of student debts? A. The cost of a college education has been increasing. B. Interest rates on college student loans have doubled. C. The students can borrow as much as they can from the bank. D. There was recently an increasing inflation in the United States. 【解析】选A。细节判断题。从文章第一段和第七段可知学生贷款上升的直接原因包括
