My years at Yale University provide me with some of the most sincere happiness I have ever experienced. The nostalgia, though, results from the thought of leaving this family and moving on to a different period of life.

Yale has allowed me to create friendships with many that will undoubtedly be brilliant in our future society. Also, I am certain that Yale has offered me the opportunity to learn and share my faith with others. Lastly, the academic education I received here is remarkable. It is such an amazing opportunity to have the dedicated, cooperative and knowledgeable teachers that are present at our school.

Nowadays women appear to have a positive image of themselves as safer drivers than men.
In a survey done for insurer MetLife, 51% of women said they drive more safely. The evidence is on their side: Men are 3.4 times more likely than women to get a ticket for careless driving and 3.1 times as likely to be punished for drunk driving. "Women are on average less aggressive and more law abiding (守法的) drivers, which leads to fewer accidents," the report says. However, not all male drivers share the same opinion. Of the men surveyed by MetLife, 39% claimed male drivers were safer. The findings did back them up on one point: automotive knowledge. The report showed that more men are familiar with current safety equipment such as electronic stability control, which helps prevent rollover accidents.
Auto safety unavoidably matters to Money. Insurance companies focus on what classes of drivers have the lowest dollar amounts of claims, and for now, that mainly includes women. In general, women pay about 9% less for auto insurance than men. A study by the website Insweb also showed that auto insurance rates are lower for women in most states. Among individual states, women get the greatest advantage in Wyoming (where they pay 20% less), South Dakota and Washington, D. C., where their insurance costs are 16% lower.
"More than 11,900 male drivers died in U.S. traffic accidents in 2009, compared with just under 4,900 women drivers," acco rding to the study. "Based on miles traveled, men died at a rate of 2.5 deaths per 100 million miles traveled, vs. 1.7 deaths for women."
64. According to the study, female drivers ______.
A. are more aggressive while driving B. are more interested in auto knowledge
C. are more likely to stick to driving laws D. are more familiar with safety equipment
65. Insurance companies focus on female driver clients probably because they ______.
A. cause more accidents on the road
B. pay more money to the insurance companies
C. take the most part of the insurance clients
D. have the lowest amount of money on insurance claims
66. We can infer from the passage that ______.
A. men are 3.1 times more likely to get tickets than women
B. all women in the USA pay the same for their auto insurance
C. more female drivers die every year than male drivers
D. women are generally safer drivers than the opposite gender

Wisdom teeth are normally the last teeth to appear. This usually happens when people are in their late teen years or early twenties, in other words, when they are older and wiser.
Wisdom teeth can grow into place normally and never cause a problem. But often there is not enough room for them in the mouth; they might crowd other teeth. Sometimes they even push sideways through the gums (齿龈)
An impacted wisdom tooth is one that fails to completely rise through the gums. Wisdom teeth that only partly break through can leave space for bacteria to enter around the teeth. Infection (感染) is a risk in these cases.
Wisdom teeth that are not well lined and become impacted are often removed. The American Dental Association says removal is generally advised when wisdom teeth only partly break through the gums. Removal is also advised if there is a chance that wisdom teeth are poorly lined. The best time to remove is before the teeth cause any problems or pain. Young adults are the best candidates for wisdom teeth removal.
But why do we have wisdom teeth if we often need to get them removed? One theory has to do with our diets. Scientists say the diet of ancient humans probably required more chewing teeth. Life was probably a little rougher on the teeth back then, too. So it was good to have extras.
68. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Just older and wiser people can have wisdom teeth
B. Wisdom teeth can cause problems if not in their right place
C. Impacted wisdom teeth can't grow out of the gum fully
D. Wisdom teeth that only partly break can get bacterial infections
69. Wisdom teeth should be removed ______.
A. when they break through the gums
B. when they are below the gums
C. if they are not well lined or get impacted
D. if they take up enough room in the mouth
70. We can learn from the passage that ______.
A. impacted wisdom teeth have the risk of getting infected
B. ancient humans need chewing teeth because of their happy life
C. older adults are the best candidates for wisdom teeth removal
D. more chewing teeth are needed for the diet of modern humans
71. The main purpose of the passage is to ______.
A. advise B. persuade C. comment D. introduce

Though in a digital age, college students nowadays are still holding fast to traditional books. According to the National Association of College Stores, digital books make up just under 3% of textbook sales, although the association expects that share to grow to 10% to 15% by 2014 as more titles are made available as e-books. However, three-quarters of the students, who grew up learning from print books, say that they are unwilling to give up the ability to turn over quickly between chapters, write in the edges and highlight passages.
The new technology has produced various options for students. College Booksellers, which operates 636 campus bookstores nationwide, is now marketing its new software application, which allows students to read e-textbooks on PCs. The company introduced the free application last summer in hopes of attracting more students to buy its electronic textbooks. "Now the biggest barrier is getting them to try it," said the company’s vice president.
But not every textbook is available in digital or rental format. Generally, an e-textbook is cheaper than a used book, though more expensive than a rental. The expense of college textbooks has become a great concern and teachers from over 40 colleges nationwide are encouraged to assign texts that are less expensive, or to offer them free online. As the buy-back price drops greatly and quickly, some professors suggest that the book stores should not have the last say and there should be something for students to decide by themselves.
72. College students prefer traditional books mainly because they ______.
A. want to keep the ability of reading print hooks
B. have the habit of turning over quickly between pages
C. find it interesting to keep notes in the edges of books
D. feel more relaxed to read print materials
73. Which of the following is NOT true according to the 2nd paragraph? ______.
A. College Booksellers operates more than 600 bookstores in campus
B. The free application was introduced to increase sales of electronic textbooks
C. Campus students now fancy a try of the free software application
D. The company's management still has to do more to sell the e-books
74. We can learn from the passage that ______.
A. second-hand books are cheaper than rental books
B. all the textbooks have both the digital and rental formats
C. the price totally determines the student's selection of books
D. the price of buy-back books are determined by book stores
75. The best title for the text would be ______.
A. Addiction to Traditional Books B. Print Books in a Digital World
C. More Texts in Digital Format D. Book Price Drops Sharply and Quickly

第一节 任务型读写(共1O小题；每小题1分。满分1O分)
阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填人恰当的单词。
注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
Have you ever intended to be fully absorbed in your work but found yourself distracted (走神) by e-mail, the Internet and other things throughout the day?
"People often lose their concentration when they are bored, of course, but also when they are engaged in challenging tasks," says Peter Bregman. "They sometimes have a feeling to escape from what's difficult or boring, so they jump out," he says. The part of the brain devoted to attention is connected to the brain's emotional center. Any strong emotion-quarrels with colleagues, problems at home-can interrupt our attention. Studies over the last decade have shown that too much work to do at a time can easily lead to distraction.
Refocusing is hard for many people. Robert Epstein suggests the following, "Stop and listen to music for a few minutes. Go for a short walk or take a deep breath, where you breathe in deeply, count to five slowly, hold it and breathe out very slowly." This can "blow out all the tension and the unwanted in your mind to restore your focus."
Take more control by structuring your time and becoming more aware of your behaviors. " Setting the phone alarm to go off every hour is my way of creating awareness," Mr. Bregman says," You have to inform yourself that you've lost focus in order to do something about it." Starting the day with a to-do list is important, such as when to eat, when to go to the gym or take a walk. But if it's overly ambitious, you will put yourself in a state of anxiety, which makes it hard for the brain to concentrate. "Choosing three or four things as your priority (优先) for the day allows your brain to settle down and focus," he says.
