(2014·南京第三中学模拟)This July, Wang Chen, a student from Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, won the International University WEICHI Tournament 2013 in Shanghai, which saw competitors from 54 universities around the world, including Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Compared with the busy sports ground, it seems a bit dull, but Wang and his peers enjoy an intense brain workout (劳动). Wang is an amateur seventhdegree master player — the highest degree amateur players can attain. “I had hoped to win first place, but when it came true, I couldn't believe it,” says Wang. Wang began studying weichi when he was 7 years old. “I was a quiet boy and my parents thought weichi would help develop my logical thinking ability,” he says. He began to attend the Chinese Rank Promotion from the age of 10. “I failed for nine years, and then I gave up. I entered university and became an amateur player,” says Wang.
What this hobby brings Wang is not only a sense of achievement, but also independence. He has won 10 national and international championships, which have brought the young student a handsome sum of money. When he won the national amateur competition in 2011, he received 100,000 yuan in prize money. With awards from contests, Wang covers his expenses and tuition fees all by himself.
Wang is busier than most of his peers. A look at his calendar shows that he will attend competitions in Guizhou and Taiwan at the end of August, after attending an international competition only this July. But Wang admits he has little in common with his classmates. “I feel a bit lonely sometimes,” he says.
On campus Wang spends more time on exploring his skills. Wang now regards playing weichi as a hobby. He is the captain of the weichi team on campus, which has five members. He organizes them to research the latest formations once a week. Wang says his next project is to promote weichi among his peers on campus. “Many young people in China don't understand this kind of sports and I want to promote it,” says Wang.
1.What's the best title of the passage?
A.The Achievement and Dream of the “Weichi Prince”
B.Wang Chen Won the International University WEICHI Tournament 2013
C.Weichi Brings Wang a Sense of Achievement and Independence
D.Wang Chen's Life

B.Wang Chen began to attend the Chinese Rank Promotion from the age of 7.
C.In 2013, Wang Chen received 100,000 yuan in prize money.
D.Wang Chen has won 10 national and international championships nowadays.
3.What can we learn from this passage?
A.Family plays an important role in shaping worldrank players.
B.As long as you have the same loneliness as Wang Chen, you are sure to succeed.
C.Wang Chen doesn't get on well with his classmates.
D.Perseverance helps to make a top player.
4.The underlined word “handsome” in Paragraph 3 most probably means “________”.
A.goodlooking B.considerable
C.generous D.beautiful
5.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A.Wang Chen doesn't get on well with his study.
B.Weichi is not popular with people in China.
C.Nobody can beat Wang Chen.
D.Many students are likely to love weichi on campus.

(2014·扬州中学模拟)
More UK universities should be profiting from ideas
A repeated criticism of the UK's university sector is its noticeable weakness in translating new knowledge into new products and services.
Recently, the UK National Stem Cell Network warned the UK could lose its place among the world leaders in stem cell research unless adequate funding and legislation could be assured, despite an annual £40 m spent by the Department of Health on all kinds of research.
However, we do have to challenge the unthinking complaint that the sector does not do enough in taking ideas to market. The most recent comparative data on the performance of universities and research institutions in Australia, Canada, USA and UK shows that, from a relatively weak starting position, the UK now leads on many indicators of commercialization activity.
When viewed at the national level, the policy_interventions (interference) of the past decade have helped transformed the performances of UK universities. Evidence suggests the UK's position is much stronger than in the recent past and is still showing improvement. But national data masks the very large variation in the performance of individual universities. The evidence shows that a large number
of universities have fallen off the back of the pack, a few perform strongly and the rest chase the leaders.
This type of uneven distribution is not strange to the UK and is mirrored across other economies. In the UK, research is concentrated: less than 25% of universities are receiving 75% of the research funding. These same universities are also the institutions producing the greatest share of PhD graduates, science citations, patents and license income. The effect of policies generating longterm resource concentration has also created a distinctive set of universities which are researchled and commercially active. It seems clear that the concentration of research and commercialization work creates differences between universities.
The core objective for universities which are researchled must be to maximize the impact of their research efforts. Their purpose is not to generate funds to add to the bottom line of the university or to substitute other income streams. Rather, these universities should be generating the widest range of social, economic and environmental benefits. In return for the scale of investment, they should share their expertise (expert knowledge or skill) in order to build greater confidence in the sector.
Part of the economic recovery of the UK will be driven by the next generation of research commercialization spilling out of our universities. On the evidence presented in my report, there are three dozen universities in the UK which are actively engaged in advanced research training and commercialization work.
If there was a greater coordination (协调) of technology transfer offices within regions and a simultaneous (happening at the same time) investment in the scale and functions of our graduate schools, universities could, and should, play a key role in positioning the UK for the next growth cycle.
6.What does the author think of UK universities in terms of commercialization?
A.They have lost their leading position in many ways.
B.They still have a place among the world leaders.
C.They do not regard it as their responsibility.
D.They fail to change knowledge into money.
7.What does the author say about the national data on UK universities' performance in commercialization?
A.It masks the fatal weaknesses of government policy.
B.It indicates their ineffective use of government resources.
C.It does not rank UK universities in a scientific way.
D.It does not reflect the differences among universities.
8.We can infer from Paragraph 5 that “policy interventions (in Paragraph 4)” refers to ________.
A.concentration of resources in a limited number of universities
B.compulsory cooperation between universities and industries
C.government aid to nonresearchoriented universities
D.fair distribution of funding for universities and research institutions
9.What does the author suggest researchled universities do?
A.Fully use their research to benefit all sectors of society.
B.Generously share their facilities with those short of funds.
C.Advertise their research to win international recognition.
D.Spread their influence among top research institutions.

(2014·芜湖一中模拟)It had been three months since Ms Miller had started teaching. She was gradually being able to understand all her students, except one, Bob. Bob was the only boy who came to school dressed untidily and sat in the class completely lost in his own world. His performance had been deteriorating steadily with every single day.
Ms Miller searched through the progress reports of Bob and was shocked to see Bob used to be the topper in his class. Bob's performance began to slowly decline when his mother fell ill. He was doing badly in each and every subject when his mother died leaving him alone with his father, who was a businessman and had to travel always. Apart from his performance worsening gradually, Bob's nature too began to change. He had forgotten to laugh and showed no interest in any activity. All his friends had abandoned him.
One day, Bob was asked to stay back. Ms Miller asked him if he had any problem understanding his lessons. Gradually she began to give him a comfort zone so that he could talk and share. After three weeks, she found Bob gradually improving. He was being able to answer the questions he previously failed. Every day after all the students went away, Ms Miller gave personal attention to Bob and began to spend time with him. Bob improved a lot over the next semester, showing definite signs of progress in his performance.
On a Friday, Bob came up to Ms Miller, handed her a box and requested her to open the box on Sunday. Sunday morning, curious, she opened it and saw a bottle of perfume, half filled. Together with it was a small letter, saying that this bottle of perfume used to be his mother's and he wished Ms Miller to wear it so that every time she was around, he could feel his Mom near him. He thanked her for everything. Ms Miller took the bottle of perfume in her hand and saw a new tag attached to it; it said “Happy Mother's Day!”
Ms Miller suddenly realized that it was not she who had made a difference to Bob's life but it was Bob who made her realize what true humanity is!

(2014·苏州高三六校联考)We all have relationships. We have acquaintances, relatives, neighbors and probably some friends. However, many of these relationships are simply not satisfying. They lack real strength and depth.
I'd like to show you how you can add a significant amount of depth and strength to your relationships and make your social life a lot more meaningful.
Meet more people. The quality of the people you meet has a great deal to do with the quantity of the people you meet. If you don't know a lot of people, you won't meet very often people who are a good match with you in terms of personality, interests and values. And since this natural match plays a huge part in building strong relationships, you'll just as seldom have the opportunity to develop strong relationships.
Talk about the things that matter to you. A relationship becomes the strongest when two people discover they believe in the same things and have similar interests. It's these commonalities regarding values and interests that create the strongest emotional connection. Talk about the things that truly matter to you and give others a chance to know what you care about and what you believe in. If they believe in the same things and they care about the same things, they'll eagerly let you know. Thus you'll find meaningful common ground and you'll feel more connected.
Express weakness. Many people try not to talk about their failures; they hide their shortcomings and they never say anything that could embarrass them. However, by hiding your imperfection, what you do succeed in is appearing cold and impersonal. This makes it very hard for anyone to connect with you emotionally. Humans connect with other humans, not with ideals. Keep this in mind and don't be afraid to let your weakness and your humanity show. This is what takes a relationship to the next level.
Have honesty. This is an important quality because if you have honesty, people can trust you. They can trust you to give them an honest feedback, and they can trust you to keep your promises. This trust is one of the central factors of a strong relationship, both in your personal and professional life. So, challenging as it can be sometimes, always try to have honesty.
Be there for others. Another central factor of strong relationships is support. Connections between people grow strong if they can rely on each other for support when it's needed, whether that support means a few kind words or several massive actions. Of course, you can't be there for everybody, all the time. Your time, energy and other resources are limited. But what you can do is to identify the really important people in your life and then seek to be there as much as possible, at least for them.
With the right attitude and the right behavior, you can strengthen a wide range of relationships in your life and advance them as far as they can be advanced. And with strong relationships, not only do you feel more satisfied, but you feel more connected to the entire world. You feel that your life has real value, you have more fun and you live in the moment.
Title How to build stronger and deeper relationships Theme Many of our relationships with others are (1)________ for lack of real strength and depth. Suggestions and reasons •Meet more people.
The quantity of the people you meet (2)________ the quality of the people you meet. •Talk about what is (3)________ to you.
If people discover they share the sam
