Growing up in one of the poorest, most crime-ridden(犯罪猖獗的) communities on the south side of Atlanta, US, being raised by a single mother who didn't finish 3rd grade, living each day on food stamps(食物票券) and attending what the media called "the most dysfunctional(功能失常的) public school district," not many people expected much of me, so I had to expect something of myself.
On my 13th birthday, I bought a poster of Harvard to hang in my room. Being at Harvard became what I dreamt about: I saw myself attending class in Sanders Theater, studying in Widener Library and eating in Annenberg Hall. Even when my electricity was
cut off and I woke up at 5:30 a.m. to pitch blackness, I knew that my poster of Harvard was still hanging only two feet away from me. I'd begin my day by asking myself these two questions, "What do I want in my life?" and "Are the things I am doing today going to get me closer to that life?"
Reminding myself of my goal each day made it easy to say no to the same choices I saw my peers making, because those paths wouldn't have gotten me closer to my goal. I found that even poverty could not take away my power to decide what I choose to do with
my day. Asking myself those questions gave me the courage to cold email about 50 Harvard students so I could ask for feedback(反饋) on my application essays; it gave me the energy to study just one more hour on my SATs when my friends were asleep; and it gave me the determination to submit(提交) just one more scholarship application when 180 0thers had already turned me down.
On March 3 lst, 2011, an email arrived from Harvard. The first word was "Congratulations! "A month later, Harvard flew me up to visit the campus where for the first time I got to see inside Sanders Theater, tour Widener Library and eat dinner in Annenberg Hall.
Who you are today is the result of the decisions you made yesterday, and who you will be tomorrow will be the result of the choices you make today. Who do you want to be tomorrow?
24. The purpose of the first paragraph is mainly to _ .

B. prove that the author once lived an unhappy life
C. show how many people treated the author badly
D. tell the reader why the author would be able to go to Harvard in the future
25. What's the author's attitude towards "poverty"?
A. Disappointed. B. Objective. C. Thankful. D. Sad.
26. How did motivating(激勵) himself affect the author?
A. It focused him on improving his application essays.
B. It helped him with decision-making and got him to put in extra effort where necessary.
C. It allowed him to measure how effectively he was moving towards achieving the goals.
D. It helped him better communicate with others in his application for colleges and scholarships.
27. What can we conclude from the text?
A. Applying to a famous university is important.
B. It is essential to set yourself an ambitious goal as early as possible.
C. Poor people usually have greater goals than others.
D. You should be determined to act and make decisions in order to achieve your goals.
B語篇導讀: 這是一篇夾敘夾議的記敘文。講述的是作者在一個極其惡劣的環境下成長，因此要實現自己的夢想只能靠自己。通過在床頭貼哈佛大學的海報每天提醒、激勵自己最終實現自己的哈佛夢。告訴我們要實現夢想，你昨天的決定，今天的選擇，明天的夢想會成就你是什么樣的人。
24. A 主旨大意題。根據第一段作者在最貧窮、犯罪最猖獗的社區長大，由母親(一個沒讀完三年級的單親母親)撫養，可知是描述作者的早期生活條件。因此A是正確答案。
25. B 觀點態度題。根據第三段I found that even poverty could not take away my power to decide what I choose to do with my day.得知作者對貧困的態度是客觀的，故選B。
26. B 細節理解題。根據第三段中Reminding myself of my goal each day made it easy to say no to the same choices I saw my peers making…以及Asking myself those questions gave me the courage to cold email about 50 Harvard students so I could ask for feedback (反饋) on my application essays; it gave me the energy to study just one more hour on my SATs when my friends were asleep; and it gave me the determination to submit (提交) just one more scholarship application when 180 others had already turned me down.得知這樣激勵自己有助于作者做出決定和有必要的努力，故B是正確答案。cold email指的是給關系不是特別熟的人發郵件，想要對方幫忙。
27. D 推理判斷題。根據文章最后一段今天的你是昨天你做出決定的結果，明天的你是今天你做出選擇的結果，所以要實現目標你就應該下定決心行動起來并且做出決定，故選D。

Cellphone use and texting are increasingly common, especially among teenagers. Many students think that multitasking(同時做多件事) has no effect on how they perform in school, says Colter Norick, 17. So the Montana teenager and his 16-year-old brother Colin decided to test that notion.
They invited 47 classmates at Columbia Falls High School to take part in a two-phase experiment. The goal was to measure how well these students understood written material. Each participants had to read a paragraph or two about a certain topic, then answer a question about it.
In the first phase, the teenager participants had 15 minutes to digest and then answer questions about six reading exercises. Throughout this testing, the volunteers encountered no distractions.
A little later, Colter and Colin had their participants tackle a new set of readings. This time, the brothers used a computer program to send texts to the volunteers' cellphones every 90 seconds. In each text, fictional character named "Bob" asked questions that required a reply. One example: What's your favorite type of music?
Results were enlightening, the Norick brothers found. In theory, volunteers should have scored better, not worse, on the second test because it was slightly easier. In fact, the participants scored 9 percent worse overall when distracted by incoming texts asking for some response. Only a few students scored as well when replying to text as they did when undistracted. But importantly, Colter and Colin say, nobody performed better during the texting phase.
Boys and girls scored equally poorly while texting, the brothers note. Older volunteers didn't do any better than younger ones. And it didn't matter if a student thought he or she was good at multitasking. On average, the brothers found that even students who were confident of their abilities did just as poorly while texting. Oddly, even though the students remembered less of what they read while texting, most of them answered questions in Bob's texts perfectly.
"Our teachers were very happy to see these results," says Colter. The teenagers' new data strongly support their teachers' claim that texting while studying is a serious distraction.
32. What is the main purpose of the article?
A. To teach the reader how to multitask effectively.
B. To advise people not to use cellphones when multitasking.
C. To report on a study about how cellphone use affects academic performance.
D. To analyze why cellphone use would cause problems for teenagers who multitask.
33. In the second part of their experiment, the Norick brothers
A. collected participants' opinions on their favorite type of music
B. made participants finish six reading exercises and then tested their understanding
C. used a computer program to distract participants from their reading
D. asked participants to send texts to Bob's cellphone every 90 seconds
34. How did the Norick brothers conduct their experiments?
A. They invited their teachers to help design their experiments.
B. They invited students across the US to participate in their experiments.
C. They tested the participants' writing skills before the experiments.
D. They compared the results of the two parts of an experiment to draw a conclusion.
35. We can infer from the last two paragraphs that____.
A. male students are more easily distracted by texting than female ones
B. texting is a lesser distraction for senior students than younger ones
C. students with better academic performance are less affected by texting
D. texting distracts students regardless of their gender, age or academic performance
D語篇導讀: 這是一篇說明文。很多學生認為同時做多件事對他們的學習沒有影響，但新的研究發現，當你正在工作時打電話，發短信，用手機或閱讀等會使一個人分散注意力，從而降低工作效率，為了證明這一結果，研究者對47學生進行試驗，結果表明同時做多件事會影響學習，不管男生還是女生，不管老少，不管學習好還是不好，結果都一樣。
32. C 主旨大意題。根據第一段第二句Many students think that multitasking has no effect on how they perform in school推出報告一項研究關于手機的使用是怎樣影響學習的，故C是正確答案。
33. C 細節理解題。根據第四段This time, the brothers used a computer program to send texts to the volunteers’ cellphones every 90 seconds. In each text, fictional character named “Bob” asked questions that required a reply.得知他們通過用電腦程序來分散參與者的閱讀，故答案是C。
34. D 細節理解題。根據第二段They invited 47 classmates at Columbia Falls High School to take part in a two-phase experiment.以及第四、五段得知D是正確答案。
35. D 推理判斷題。從倒數第二段推出閱讀的時候玩手機、發短信會分散學生的注意力，不管性別、年齡或學習好壞都會受到影響。故答案是D。
