This collection has been made possible by a generous gift from the Stanford University Bookstore.
D.Lane Reading Room
The Lane Reading Room, houses the Humanities and Area Studies Resource Center. From the beginning, the room has served as a reading room, first for general purposes, and later for the study of rare books and manuscripts(手稿). Traditional study and reading space is now complemented by Internet access (available from all seating in the room) and computer workstations. The Lane Reading Room houses the Humanities Digital Information Service (formerly the Academic Text Service), which provides access to SUL/AIR"s electronic library of humanities texts as well as to electronic indexes, publications, and the Internet.
E. Dissertation(专题论文) Rooms

请阅读以下人物信息, 并为这几个人选择他们今天要去的区域:

57. Ali is on a visit to the university. He has been invited to stay on campus for 2 weeks. At the library, he may need a place that can be locked up to keep his belongings.
58. Jack has finished his project on humanities. For several months he was seated in front of the computer screen writing his dissertation. Today he wants a change. A comfortable place with interesting novels, short stories, or even fairytales is most favorable.

第一节 阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Now in his senior year in Bowdoin College, a small, elite liberal-arts(文科)college in Masine, Chen Yongfang has become such a devotee of the liberal-arts approach that he’s made it his mission to spread the word throughout China. He has coauthored a book called A True Liberal Arts Education, which essentially explains the little-known concept to Chinese students and their parents. Though there have been many books about how to get into Ivy League universities, “there was not a single book in China about the smaller liberal-arts colleges,” he says.
The book, which Chen wrote with friends Ye Lin and Wan Li, who also attend small U. S. colleges, touts(兜售)such benefits as intimate classes (the student-to-faculty ratio at Bowdoin is 9:1) and professors who focus on teaching rather than research. Chen, 23, explains that he was won over by Bowdoin’s commitment to nurturing skills for life, rather than simply for the workplace. “Liberal arts is abut fostering your identity,” he says. “They want to cultivate your mind.” He admits that liberal arts may be a hard sell in a country with an increasingly competitive job market. The book states bluntly that in the short term, a liberal-arts education won’t improve job prospects. “In China, employers are looking for someone who can come in and start working immediately when they graduate, not someone who still needs to be trained in practical skills,” Chen says.
The book, which received wide media coverage in China and now has a waiting list for its second print run, is certainly timely: it plays into a growing debate in China about what national universities should be teaching. The country needs a workforce with the skills and creativity to help move away from low-cost manufacturing and, in economic terms, move up the value chain. And some educators believe liberal-arts training is vital to help China deal with its increasingly complex new realities. Yet the well-known intellectual historian Xu Jilin believes that China’s rapid expansion of higher education has had a detrimental effect on curriculum as the country’s universities race to compete globally. “Education these days in like factory-farming chickens,” he says. “Universities all wan to get into international rakings—and most of these depend on research. They’re not interested in providing a unique education for our kids.”
1.According to Chen Yongfang, the benefits of attending liberal-arts colleges are the following EXCEPT .
A.closer relationship with tutors
B.teachers more devoted to teaching
C.practical skills for getting a job in China
D.development in mind and life-long ability
2.It can be inferred from the passage that .
A.the teaching quality in big research universities not as good as small colleges
B.it is more difficult for liberal-arts graduates to find a job because employers don’t believe that they can perform well
C.literal-arts education is of little help to China’s economic development
D.research universities received more Chinese applicants than smaller liberal-arts colleges
3.The word “detrimental” in Para.3 probably means “_________.”
A.instant B.rewarding C.damaging D.obvious
4.According to Xu Jilin,___________.
A.the expansion of higher education has improved the competitive strength of China’s universities
B.Chinese universities are providing the same courses as foreign universities
C.many universities are not paying enough attention to teaching
D.research should gain more attention in order to improve China’s universities’ rankings
5.This passage is most probably adapted from_________.
A.an article introducing liberal arts
B.an article introducing the book A True Liberal Arts Education
C.an article criticizing China’s higher education
D.an advertisement for Bowdoin College
So I’m driving the lovely and patient older daughter to work. At 7 a. m., she pushes the seat
warmer button as her new Honda zooms across L. A., the City of Padded Shoulders.
"Oh, look, I’m low on gas," she says.
First, we pick up her boss, then we pick up her other boss. They are all headed to Staples Center for some awards show. My daughter does something in public relations, I’m not sure what. But when this show comes along, she gets very busy.
"In the past two nights I’ve gotten, like, seven hours sleep," she notes, the implication being that I sleep all the time, which is pretty much true.
In Los Feliz, a dashboard light confirms that we are, indeed, low on fuel. This does not perturb my daughter.
"Don’t worry, we’ll get there," she says.
My daughter says nothing about getting back home, which is my job. I’ve just agreed to drop her off, so she can avoid traffic later. My task is simple, though now full of uncertainty.
I don’t know how I ended up dropping my daughter and her bosses off at 7 a.m. on a Sunday. I just know that J.D. Salinger may now be dead, but I still feel like Holden Caulfield -- at the mercy of too many yammering adults.
Now, I’ve had mixed luck with adults.
Apparently, my daughter’s job in PR is to keep everyone happy while telling the truth as much as possible. I sent her to college to study that. Now she is an expert.
"After you drop us off, you can get gas," my daughter assures me.
I have been her chauffeur for 26 years. By the time she was 3, I’d snapped her into a car seat some 14,000 times. I took her to seventh-grade dances, ski trips, college.
Even after all that, we continue to have a civil relationship, sort of a queen-mum-and-her-
driver sort of dynamic. When I screw up, she just raises her pretty chin and snorts. It’s very British.
By the way, my daughter now has a nicer car than I do, which is a sign she is doing well. Or, as with so many young people, she is up to her hoop earrings in consumer debt.
1.Which of the following statements in NOT true about the author’s daughter?
A.She is fashionable. B.She always tells the truth.
C.She is doing well in her work. D.She lives a fast-paced life.
2.The author’s tone suggests that_________.
A.he is feeling left behind when his daughter has grown up and begun adult life
B.he is content with his grown daughter
C.he does not like his daughter’s bosses
D.he will not believe his daughter any more
3.It can be concluded from the passage that_________.
A.the author won’t have any difficulty in getting gas
B.the daughter cares for her father a lot
C.the author has done a lot to help his daughter get where she is
D.the British people have pretty chin and snort often
4.By referring to J. D. Salinger and Holden Caulfield, the author is most probably_________.
A.recalling his daughter’s childhood
B.mentioning his family members who are now dead
C.comparing his situation to a scene in a famous literary work
D.telling a story about his daughter’s friends
5.What is the best title for this passage?
A.A PR’s Busy Life
B.Relationship Between Dad and Daughter
C.A Loving Father
D.Go Ahead and Fill Her up, Dad
