Two more American universities, Adelphi University in New York, and Louisiana State University, have begun accepting scores from China’s national college entrance exam, or gaokao, in order to attract more Chinese students.
This means Chinese students no longer need to take the SAT, ACT or TOEFL. However, Chinese students must find ways to show their English skills. If they want to take part in Adelphi’s international program and Louisiana State University’s global program, they must first finish eight weeks of English-language lessons, starting in October. After passing the exam, they can start their first year at one of the universities.
Since 2015, US universities have more accepted gaokao scores as part of the application(申请)process for Chinese students, but they still need either a basic English test score or to pass an interview.
“Chinese students at the university have achieved better grades than their US classmates, and that’s why we prefer students from China,” Shawn O’Riley, leader of the College said. “We have around 300 Chinese students and plan to increase the number.We also offer scholarship, from $5,000 to $15,000 depending on their gaokao score.”
Todd Ellwein, the director of Louisiana State University’s global program, said students who get high scores in the gaokao are not only the best students in China but also the world. The gaokao is a good way of choosing good students, and a high score in the exam means good basic knowledge, patience and a strong ability to deal with high pressure and compete with others.
Shi Yan, from Chivast Education International, said many universities in Hong Kong, Europe, Australia and Canada, have already made the gaokao an admission criterion(录取标准),too.
46.When do the English-language lessons in these two universities begin?
A. In October B.In November C. In September 47. Why do some US universities like Chinese students better?
A. Because they are usually smarter in the universities B. Because their grades are better than the US classmates’ C. Because they find ways to show their English skills
48. What does the underlined word “scholarship” mean in Chinese?
A. 学者 B.学业 C.奖学金 49. According to the passage, a high score means a lot EXCEPT .
A. high pressure B. good basic knowledge C. much patience 50. The purpose of the passage is ______ ．
A. to introduce China’s national college entrance exam, gaokao B. to encourage more young people to enter American universities C. to tell people the growing popularity of gaokao around the world B
How many of you have unfriended (拉黑) someone on Facebook because they said something bad about politics, childcare or food? And how many of you ever hide from someone just because you don’t want to talk to them?
In order to have a polite conversation, we used to follow the advice ---make our conversation go around the weather and your health. But these days, with climate change and vaccine (疫苗) problems, those subjects—are not safe, either. Every conversation may lead to a fight.

Pew Research did a study of 10,000 American adults, and they found at this moment, we are less likely(可能) to listening to each other. Depending on what we already believe,we make decisions about where to live, who to marry and even who our friends are going to be. A conversation needs a balance(平衡) between talking and listening, and somewhere along the way, we lost that balance. Now, part of that is because of technology,such as the smartphones. They are either in your hands or close enough for you to get quickly. According to the Pew Research, about one third American teenagers send more than a hundred texts(信息) a day. And many of them, almost most of them, are more likely to text their friends than they are to talk to them face to face.
There’s a great piece in The Atlantic. It was written by a high school teacher named Paul Barnwell. He gave a communication project to teach students how to speak on a special topic. But he failed to make it and said:“I realize kids spend hours each day connecting with ideas and each other through screens, but they hardly discover their communication skills. It might sound like a funny question, but we have to ask ourselves. Are there any 21st-century skills more important than being able to make a real conversation?” 51. It used to be safe to talk about in a polite conversation.
A. health B. childcare C. food 52. What can we learn from the study of Pew Research?
A. People make their own decisions by listening to others B. We probably like talking with friends face to face better C. There isn’t a balance between talking and listening now 53. About 30% American teenagers send texts a day. A. more than 1000 B. about 500 C. Over 100 54. The last paragraph mainly talks about . A. some communication skills B. a project by Paul Barnwell
C. a magazine called The Atlantic 55. What is the best title of the passage? A. Why not have a conversation now? B. How can we speak politely?
C. What can we do with smart phones?
