For Yali Liu, the hardest thing about UK higher education is having to go to the pub. “It’s how much you need to invest socially with other students,” she says. “I don’t like going to a pub or club, but people just keep going out and I feel the pressure to go out too.” This is because, unlike in China, she says, there is so much emphasis during the course on teamwork and group projects, so socialising with other students – especially British people, is crucial.
Liu, 23, who is in her final year of a BSc in business administration at the University of Bath, is one of more than 80,000 Chinese students studying in UK universities. They are responsible for a large proportion of the more than ￡10bn a year that international students contribute to the UK economy. However, research shows that where their academic attainment(成就) is concerned, the picture is not satisfactory. While nearly 58% of all students – and 45% of overseas students graduated with a first-class degree last year, this was true of only 35% of students from China.
To find an explanation, Zhiqi Wang and Ian Crawford, lecturers at the University of Bath, compared the performance of Chinese and British undergraduates in each year of their degree. Taking a sample of 100 British and Chinese students and comparing their average marks and final degree classification, they found a dramatic drop in performance among the Chinese students between year one, when they performed better than their UK counterparts, and year two, when they performed worse.
They believe the drop results from two factors. First, Chinese students fail to adapt their approaches to learning and so their performance declines in the later years when the complexity of the work increases. Second, many young people in China enroll in higher education due to pressure from family rather than their own motivation.
Professor Sedghi thinks part of the problem may be the changing socio-economic background of Chinese undergraduates. While 85% of Chinese students at British universities before 2000 were mature students, often funded by the government, since 2004, however, they have been younger, most funded by their families.
Maybe UK institutions need to work harder to take into account what a big challenge it is for young people from a radically different culture and linguistic background to adapt to life in the UK. “We need to do more, contacting students before their arrival, assigning them tutors, encouraging peer-assisted learning, for example,” says Sedghi.
58. What can be inferred about Yali Liu from the passage?
A. She is not good at socialising with local students.
B. She is bored with the teamwork and group projects.
C. Her family can’t afford her education in the UK.
D. The university won’t award her a first-class degree.
59. Which of the following is NOT a possible factor for Chinese students’ unsatisfactory attainment?
A. They don’t adjust their studying methods in time.
B. They are lacking in motivation to achieve success.
C. They are too young and mostly come from poor families.
D. They haven’t got necessary support from the UK universities.
60. The passage mainly talks about in UK universities.
A. the great pressure Chinese students are suffering
B. cultural differences between the east and the west
C. main reasons for Chinese students’ poor performance
D. possible solutions to the problems facing Chinese students

For years, scientists and others concerned about climate change have been talking about the need for carbon capture and storage (CCS).
That is the term for removing carbon dioxide from, say, a coal-burning power plant’s smokestack and pumping it deep underground to keep it out of the atmosphere, where it would otherwise contribute to global warming.
However, currently, only one power plant in Canada captures and stores carbon on a commercial scale (and it has been having problems). Among the concerns about storage is that carbon dioxide in gaseous or liquid form that is pumped underground might escape back to the atmosphere. So storage sites would have to be monitored, potentially for decades or centuries.
But scientists at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University and other institutions have come up with a different way to store CO2 that might eliminate that problem. Their approach involves dissolving the gas with water and pumping the resulting mixture — soda water, essentially — down into certain kinds of rocks, where the CO2 reacts with the rock to form a mineral called calcite(方解石). By turning the gas into stone, scientists can lock it away permanently. Volcanic rocks called basalts(玄武岩) are excellent for this process, because they are rich in calcium, magnesium and iron, which react with CO2.
The project called CarbFix started in Iceland, 2012, when the scientists pumped about 250 tons of carbon dioxide, mixed with water, about 1,500 feet down into porous basalt. Early signs were encouraging: The scientists found that about 95 percent of the carbon dioxide was changed into calcite. And even more importantly, they wrote, the change happened relatively quickly — in less than two years.
“It’s beyond all our expectations,” said Edda Aradottir, who manages the project. Rapid change of the CO2 means that a project would probably have to be monitored for a far shorter time than a more conventional storage site.
There are still concerns about whether the technology will prove useful in the fight against global warming. For one thing, it would have to be scaled up enormously. For another, a lot of water is needed — 25 tons of it for every ton of CO2 — along with the right kind of rock.
But the researchers say that there is enough porous basaltic rock in Iceland, including in the ocean floors and along the margins of continents. And sitting a storage project in or near the ocean could potentially solve the water problem at the same time, as the researchers say seawater would work just fine.
61. What can we learn about CCS in Paragraphs 2 and 3?
A. Scientists believe global warming will be avoided if CO2 is pumped underground.
B. It’s been a common practice in many plants to capture and store CO2 underground.
C. There is no guarantee that CO2 will not escape even if pumped underground.
D. It requires decades to turn CO2 into liquid form and be locked underground.
62. What materials should be involved in the project CarbFix?
A. Water, CO2, soda water and basalts
B. Water, soda water, a pump and calcite
C. CO2, basalts, a pump and calcite
D. Water, CO2, a pump and basalts
63. According to Edda Aradottir, the result of the project was beyond the researchers’ expectations, because .
A. it’s disappointing to discover new problems caused by rapid change
B. it’s amazing to see 95% of the carbon dioxide turn into calcite that fast
C. it’s puzzling to find the encouraging but unexpected result of the project
D. it’s exciting to sense the problem of storing CO2 likely to be solved
64. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To inform us of a breakthrough in storing CO2.
B. To praise the efforts of scientists in storing CO2.
C. To show the different ways to fight against CO2.
D. To urge people to produce the least possible CO2.

“What defines you?” That’s what Lizzie Velasquez asked the crowds of people who came to hear her motivational speeches.
Due to a rare syndrome(综合症), from the second when Velasquez was born incredibly ugly, the doctors prepared her parents to accept absolutely nothing out of her, no crying, no walking, no crawling and literally nothing. But her parents decided to take her home, love her and raise her the best as they could. They brought her up completely normally, so normally that when she started kindergarten she had no clue that she was different.
Unfortunately she had to find it out in a way like a big slap of reality for a 5-year-old. No one wanted to play with her or stand by her. No one wanted to have a single thing to do with her. As a little girl, she couldn’t understand, because she was raised still normally. So she had to go home and ask her parents. And they encouraged her to go back to school and be herself so eventually everyone would see she was just like them. So again, at such a young age, she was forced to a situation where she could either choose to be happy or choose to give up. Luckily, she chose to be happy.
When she was in high school, one day she was shocked to click on one video of herself labeled “the World’s Ugliest Woman”, which was only 8 seconds long but had over 4 million views. The comments that went along were horrible. “Why would her parents keep her?!” read one; “Kill it with fire!” said another. And they continued on and on. She wanted to fight back at some of the commentators, like one specifically who told her to put a gun to her head and kill herself. So again, she was put in the position to choose happiness or to choose to give up.
And again with the help of family, Velasquez found the strength to channel the hatred into motivation and to rise above the cruelty. At that moment, she was going to let her goals, her success and her accomplishments be the things that define her, not her outer appearance, not the doctors who said she would accomplish nothing or those people who called her a monster.
She decided to be a motivational speaker and 2013 was the eighth year of her motivational speaking. She decided to write a book. During her first year in college, she published her first book Lizzie is beautiful in English and Spanish and then the second one Be beautiful, be you and then the third. She decided to graduate from college and she got her degree from Texas State University in May, 2013. One of the biggest motivations for her to accomplish all those things was that Youtube video. She will go back to that video and look at every hateful and nasty comment and it will inspire her to keep going and work even harder.
Lizzie Velasquez once made the headlines as the world’s ugliest woman, but she finally shrugged off the hurtful comments about her looks as just words. Now, she is not letting anything or anyone hold her back and is using her devotion to religion to help diminish the hatred that comes her way by overriding it with an inspirational message of love and acceptance. She has resolved to take charge of her life by killing the negativity with ambition and is consistently redefining what it means to be beautiful on her own terms. And she wins!
65. Reactions towards Velasquez’s appearance are as follows EXCEPT .
A. the doctors advised accepting nothing out of her
B. her parents decided to bring her up as normal
C. her classmates refused to keep her company
D. netizens intentionally pushed her to kill herself
66. According to Velasquez, what is the best response to those who commented bitterly online?
A. Fighting right back.
B. Deleting the comments.
C. Turning to her family.
D. Making achievements.
67. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably means .
A. she could be easily set off by those hurtful comments
B. she painfully managed to focus on her achievements
C. she didn’t care about those hurtful comments eventually
D. she felt sad whenever looking back on the hurtful words
68. Which of the following can best describe Velasquez?
A. Optimistic and determined. B. Flexible and sympathetic.
C. Diligent and outspoken. D. Brave and considerate.
69. The sentence ‘‘At that point she was deciding how she was going to revenge(报复) and finally he decided to fight back in a different way.’’ can be put at the end of Paragraph .
A. 3 B. 4 C. 5 D. 6
70. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Appearance: something to define you
B. Velasquez: a brave and beautiful heart
C. Achievement: something to support you
D. Speech: a way to make you stronger
