32、d a large donation to be used to enhance(improve) the quality of life for students: expand the bookstore or add computers to the computer lab. It is the tradition of this school to promote education and to be the pioneer of new technology. That is why I strongly argue in favor of the addition of mor

33、e computers to the computer lab. Although expanding the campus bookstore to include CDs, gifts, and a snack bar will give a nicer look to the college, we have to think about a greater goal and a more practical way to enhance the quality of life for students. What do we want for our students and our

34、college? Do we want our college to be known as a place with a great bookstore where you can find CDs and gifts, or as a place where the students can explore and research in their field using the best tools provided by technology? In addition, there are already several snack bars on campus, and there

35、 are music stores nearby, so students do not depend on the college bookstore for these things. We live in a highly technological world and computers play an increasingly important role in how we live. As a learning institution, this college has the responsibility to offer its students the best techn

36、ology to help them prepare for their future. Many students will be expected to be familiar with the latest software and other tools when they go on to work or to graduate school. While they are in college, students find they are expected to use computers. Many professors expect students to use compu

37、ters to do homework or to complete projects. Since students are competing for good grades, those who have limited access to computers are at a great disadvantage. Furthermore, being able to do projects using the computer enhances the process of learning. If there are more computers, no more will stu

38、dents have to wait in line while scanning the room for an empty chair and computer. No longer will they have to sit and wait while an outdated computer struggles to follow their commands. Having more new and faster computers available will enable students to finish their work more quickly. The more

39、computers are used in society, the more colleges will depend on them as a tool of teaching and learning. Making computers more available to students facilitates their learning process by making the process easier, more interesting, more engaging, and in the process enhancing their quality of life.49

40、The purpose of the author in writing the passage is _. Ato describe the problems caused by lack of computers Bto explain why students are in great need of computers Cto tell us what benefits students can gain from computers Dto persuade the Dean to purchase more advanced computers50From the passage

41、we can infer that _. Apresent computers in the college cannot meet the demands of the students Bcomputers in the college will be updated to meet the students demands soon C. the college has the responsibility to help the students to prepare for their future D. it is also necessary to expand the coll

42、ege bookstore by using part, of the donation51In paragraph 4, the author mainly wants to tell us that _. Acomputers are beneficial to students academic success Bcomputers are helpful to students competition for success Cstudents find it convenient to do assignments by using computers Dstudents wish

43、to use the money to buy more advanced computers52Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?

45、oms to malaria（疟疾）, making it difficult to diagnoseLeft untreated, it moves to the brain, resulting in mental confusion and final deathThe breakthrough came at the University of Dundee in Scotland, where scientists were offered money to research diseases ignored by major drugs companiesProfessor Pau

46、l Wyatt, director of the programme, said: This is one of the most significant findings made in recent years in terms of drug discovery and development for ignored diseases. He said the research, published in the journal Nature, represented significant progress in the development of a full blown drug

47、 against the diseaseThe World Health Organization said there are between 50,000 and 70,000 cases of the disease a year, with a further 60 million people at risk of infectionThe research in Dundee was backed by partners at the University of York in England and the Structural Genomics Consortium in To

48、ronto, CanadaThe two drugs currently available to treat sleeping sickness both have problemsOne is with side effects that kill one in 20 patients and the other is costly, only partially effective and requires long-time hospital treatment, the scientists said53The word backed in the last paragraph pr

51、e are mentally disturbedCamong 200 people infected with the disease, 5 may die because of the old drugD Professor Paul Wyatt may be a professor at the University of York EMost Americans who earned money last year are expected to pay the I.R.S. part of what they earned. Only those who earned very lit

52、tle are not required to make such a payment. They still must send a tax report to the government.Most American workers have already paid all or most of their federal income taxes. This is because part of the tax goes to the I.R.S. each time a worker is paid. The government returns some of the money

53、if too much was withheld. People who work for themselves usually send a tax payment to the I.R.S. every three months.The federal tax rate is not the same for everyone. People who earn a lot of money pay taxes at a higher rate than those who earn less. But even people who earn the same amount do not

54、always pay the same amount of tax. That is because of the many tax laws written by Congress. These laws were created for social or economic purposes.For example, people who borrow money to buy a house may pay less in taxes than people who rent a home. Homeowners can subtract (减掉) the interest on the loan from their taxable income
