阅读理解。     Perhaps you do not know your school principal (校长) well. But you might be wise to take him or her
seriously. Beijing University will enroll (招收) students recommended by high school principals this year.
If the students recommended pass a round of interviews by Peking University, they will have an extra 30
extra points added to their national college entrance exam scores if they apply to the university.
     Beijing University said the reason behind the move was a desire to give students with comprehensive
(综合的) or special abilities a chance to stand out.
     However, a survey, showed 10,046 out of 14,227 people are against the measure. Some experts agree
with the criticism. Liu Daoyu, former president of Wuhan University is one strong opponent(反对者)."There
are so many high schools across the country. But only 39 schools are qualified to recommend students. Is
it fair to the rest of the schools? Besides, most of the 39 schools are located in big cities, which is unfair to
other regions,"
     The reform is also unfair to other students, some say. According to Liu, in the competitive exam, one
extra point can put a student ahead of a large numbers of other-never mind 30.
      "Principals do not know students well. How can they guarantee the recommendation will be fair?" asked
Wang Xuming, former spokesman of the Ministry of Education.
     The Ministry of Education said the move is a good experiment in college admission reforms and the public
should support it even if it is not yet mature (成熟的). It said Beijing University promised a series of
supervision (监督) measures to avoid cheating. For example, the information of schools and principals that
recommend students, and the recommended students will be put online for a week for public supervision. 1. The best title of the passage could be _____. A. Beijing University Will Enroll More Students
B. Beijing University"s Reform Causes a Debate
C. People Are Against Beijing University"s Reform
D. The Government Supports Peking University"s Reform 2. The following are the reasons why Liu Daoyu is against Beijing University"s reform except that _____. A. there will be a lot of cheating

阅读理解。     In some parts of the United States, farming is easy. But farming has always been difficult in the
northeastern corner of the country, which is called New England.
     New England has many trees and thin, rocky soil. Anyone who has wanted to start a new farm there
has had to work very hard. The first job has been cutting down trees. The next job has been digging
the stumps of the trees out of the soil. Then the farmer has had the difficult job of removing stones from
his land.
     This work of removing stones never really ends, because every winter more stones appear. They come
up through the thin soil from the rocks below. Farmers have to keep removing stones from the fields. Even
today, farms which have been worked on for 200 years keep producing more stones.
     That is why stone walls are used instead of fences around New England fields. The stone walls are not
high; a man can easily climb over them. But they keep the farmer"s cows from joining his neighbor"s cows. 1. This selection explains _____. A. how to make a stone wall in New England
