Well, it's not even really a campus. It's more likea district in a small town.Harvard's main buildings are from the 18th century. They look very old and simple. You might even say they're a little shabby. They don't fit the modern idea of university at all. The buildings are surrounded by grass and trees, so I felt as if I had walked into a medieval castle. But when I looked across the street, busy shops and in-fashion students made me feel like I was in the 21st century again. It creates a strong contrast and brings a special atmosphere to the school.Our tour guide Gary took us around and told us: "You see this grass field in the center of the school? Here is where they host their graduation ceremony. They just set up tents and benches and have a very simple ceremony. Unbelievable! Who would think the most talented students just graduate on the lawn?I saw some students put a blanket on the grass and lie down to read a book. When I listened to the soft sound of pages turning, along with chirping of the birds, I felt very calm. There was no competitive feeling at all.Harvard has the world's first computer in its science center and there are hundreds of high-end computers too. Its religion and the literature departments are also among the best. It is the perfect mix of tradition and new technology. It makes Harvard a very attractive place to study in.I hope one day I'll attend my dream school—Harvard.1、The article is mainly about_____________.A．the author's campus life in Harvard B．the author's impression of HarvardC．Harvard's old buildings D．the academic system at Harvard2、The author was most impressed by_____________, according to the article.A．Harvard's mix of tradition and new technologyB．the classes held on beautiful lawns at HarvardC．Harvard students not taking their graduation ceremony seriouslyD．the feeling of not living in modern society on the campus3、What can we conclude from the article?A．Harvard campus is actually a district of a big city.B．There are no competitions at Harvard University.C．Graduation ceremonies are not complex at Harvard.D．All Harvard buildings date back to the 18th century.4、Accord to the article, in which fields is Harvard top in the world?A．Literature, arts, and law. B．Religion, law and arts.C．Literature, arts and computer science. D．Religion, computer science and literature.23．（8分）A young woman sits alone in a café sipping tea and reading a book. She pauses briefly to write in a nearby notepad before showing her words to a passing café waiter: "Where are the toilets please?"This is a familiar scene in Tokyo’s so-called "silent cafés", where customers are not allowed to speak, and only communicate by writing in notepads.The concept rises by a desire to be alone among young Japanese, a situation brought by economic uncertainty, a shift in traditional family support structures and the growing social isolation. The phenomenon is not limited to coffee shops but covers everything from silent discos, where participants dance alone wearing wireless headphones connected to the DJ, to products such as small desk tents designed for conversation-free privacy in the office. One Kyoto company even offers single women the opportunity to have a "one woman wedding"—a full bridal affair, complete with white dress and ceremony, and the only thing missing is the groom. The trend has its own media expression-“botchi-zoku”, referring to individuals who consciously choose to do things completely on their own.One recent weekday afternoon, Chihiro Higashikokubaru, a 23-year-old nurse, travelled 90 minutes from her home, to Tokyo on her day off in order to enjoy some solo time. Speaking quietly at the entrance of the cafe, Miss Higash ikokubaru said: “I heard about this place via Twitter and I like the idea of coming here. I work as a nurse and it's always very busy. There are very few quiet places in Tokyo, and it's a big busy city. I just want to come and sit somewhere quietly on my o wn. I’m going to drink a cup of tea and maybe do some drawings. I like the idea of a quiet, calm atmosphere.”The desire to be isolated is not a new concept in Japan, home to an estimated 3.6 million "hikikomori" - a more extreme example of social recluses(隐士) who withdraw completely from society.1、（小题1）What is special about the “silent cafes”?A．It provides various tea and books.B．It has attracted many popular young people.C．It offers service by writing not by speakingD．People are not allowed to communicate.2、（小题2）Which of the following statement can’t account for the idea of being alone in Japan? A．Unstable economic situationB．A change in traditional family support patternC．The rising demand for privacyD．The increasing social isolation3、（小题3）What do we know about Higashikokubaru?A．She doesn’t like to be a nurse. B．She doesn’t like the life in big cities.C．She travelled to Tokyo on her work days. D．She enjoys her solo time in a quiet place.4、（小题4）What is the best title of the passage?A．Lonely Japanese B．One woman weddingC．Social recluses in Japan D．Silent cafes24．（8分）Each applicant to Harvard College is considered with great care.

They spent many happy hours together working on it. Most of the neighbors watched interestingly as Ben doubled the size of their garden.

As the rest of us spent our dollars at the market, Happy could be seen picking beans in her back yard.Last month, Happy and Ben invited most of the neighb orhood over for an “all-day food fest”. We were told to bring gloves and arrive very early in the morning. We didn’t know what was about to take place.By 9:00 am, there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans, okra, and squash. By 10:00 am, there was lots of laughter. We shared a lot of stories. By five o’clock, everyone was a little drunk from the wine and beer. After dinner, we played games. As we were leaving, Happy and Ben handed each of us a shopping bag filled with the bounty（收成）of the day, already packaged and frozen.
