This is my third story. When I was 17，I read a quote that 1 something like，“If you live each day 2 it was your last，someday you'll most certainly be right.”Since then，for the past thirty­three years，I've looked 3 the mirror every morning and asked myself：“If today were the last day of my life，would I want to do what I am about to do today？”And whenever the answer has been“No”for too many days in a 4 ，I know I need to change something.
About a year ago I was 5 with cancer. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable，and that I should 6 to live no longer than three to six months. They advised me to go home and get my 7 in order，which is doctors' code for“prepare to 8 ”. Later that evening when the doctors 9 the cells taken from my pancreas(胰腺)under a microscope，they started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is 10 with surgery.

This was the closest I've been to facing death，and I hope it's the closest I get for a few more decades. Death is the 12 we all share. No one has 13 escaped it.

Your time is 17 ，so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma(信条)—which is living with the results of other people's thinking.

32. 阅读理解
For high school leavers starting out in the working world，it is very important to learn particular skills and practice how to behave in an interview or how to find all internship(实习)．In some countries，schools have programs to help students onto the path to work．In the Unites States，however，such programs are still few and far between．
Research shows that if high schools provide career-related courses，students are likely to get higher earnings in later years．The students are more likely to stay in school，graduate and go on to higher education．
In Germany，students as young as 13 and 14 are expected to do internships．German companies work with schools to make sure that young people get the education they need for future employment．
But in America, education reform programs focus on how well students do in exams instead of bringing them into contact with the working world．Harvard Education school professor Robert
Schwartz has criticized education reformers for trying to place all graduates directly on the four-year college track．Schwartz argued that this approach leaves the country’s most vulnerable(易受影响的)kids with no jobs and no skills．
Schwartz believed that the best career programs encourage kids to go for higher education while also teaching them valuable practical skills at high sch001．James Madison High School in New York，for example，encourages students to choose classes on career—based courses．The school then helps them gain on—the-job experience in those fields while they’re still at high school．
However，even for teens whose schools encourage them to connect with work，the job market is daunting．In the US，unemployment rates for 16-to 19-year-olds are above 20 percent for the third summer in a row．
“The risk is that if teenagers miss out on the Summer job experience，they become part of this generation of teens who had trouble in landing a job，”said Michael，a researcher in the US.

1．In the author’s opinion．American high school leavers__________.
A．have enough career-related courses
B．need more career advice from their schools
C．perform better in exams than German students
D．can get higher earnings in later years

2．According to Robert Schwartz，_________．
A．there is no need for kids to go for higher education in the US
B．students should get contact with the working world at high school
C．education reform should focus on students’ performance in exams
D．teenagers in the US can’t miss out on the summer job experience

3．What can be inferred from the text?
A．Unemployment rates for US teenagers remain hi曲at the moment．
B. Students with career—based courses never have problems finding a job．
C. US companies work with schools to prepare young people for future employment．
D．High school leavers with no practical skills can’t find a job absolutely

4．What’s the main idea of the text?
A．Arguments about recent US education reform．
B．Tips on finding jobs for high school leavers．
C．The lack of career—based courses in US high schools．
D．Advice for American high school leavers．

5.The underlined word “daunting” in Paragraph 6 most probably means___________.
A．discouraging B．interesting C．creative D．unbearable

33. 阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。
首先请阅读以下大学新生入校后可能面临的一些实际困难：
A

Not enough partying: When asking some students what they thought about their first college experience…many stated that their worst fears have come true. Their social life has been totally reduced. Their school work has taken over their life 24/7.
B

Money: Many students fear that the costs are too high. Education so far has been provided to students for free. When entering college/university, many face loans and high costs. They thus fear that they will not be able to pay off their debts.
C

Failing to Meet the Standards: Many students who received A’s in high school faced difficulties in their first year. Their marks at times drop to 60%. With most masters and specialized programs only considering B+ to A students, many panic.
D

Being Homesick: Some students are close to family. When starting your college/university life, they become independent. Many students no longer rely on family to help them make decisions. Many fear that they will become homesick and will not be able to handle the independence.
E

Being Safe: Many question whether universities and colleges are safe? Increasing incidents have given fear to those who enter university for the first time. Drug issues and violence are some main worries students have.
F

Not Fitting In: Many students fear that they would not fit in. Their personalities may be against the programs, the directors and professors. Many are not used to being in a lecture of 200+ students. And all kinds of clubs may make them puzzled.
下面是大学生辅导员对这些困难给出的相关建议。请帮他们找出所匹配的症结”。
1. _____ I was quite worried about being safe when students think they are old enough to face the complex society. After all they are still too young to realize the dangers of taking drugs. Luckily there are more organizations checking student’s safety in universities.

2. _____ All university students are eager to have more colorful life in the campus. But surely you will have to face a crueler situation after your graduation. You can make a reasonable timetable to make your life full. Make more friends and find more party chances but make sure of your time.

3. _____ I know a number of people who gave up in their first year because they did not suit themselves with the new environment. They are thus discouraged and feel that university life is just not for them. Just change your mind! After all the new environment is equipping yourself with a more bright future.

4. _____ I share the worries with many students. Universities are competitive and the grades are also harder to earn. To earn an A in a course, the student must work harder in the new environment to meet the expectations. Relieve yourself and keep a peaceful mind.

5. _____ There are some students who are worried that they will be kicked out if their bills are not paid on time. I know several students who work full time and study full time to pay off their expenses. You will value the working experience before you come into the society.
