At age 16，my father studied by the light of the street light until he was exhausted. Sometimes，the high school guard was 16 enough to let him in to escape the cold. The 17 of electricity at home was one of the obstacles to overcome on his way to becoming a doctor.
18 poor conditions，supporting his family after his fathers death，and a high illiteracy （文盲）rate in his country，Pakistan，my father overcame the adversity （逆境）and established his own 19 practice in Peshawar. 20 ，he decided to leave this comfortable lifestyle and move to America to ensure limitless opportunities for his family.

What are the practical results of the crazy pursuit of beauty？The exercises，the health motors or the skin foods―to what have they led？Are women more beautiful than they were？These are questions which it is difficult to answer. The campaign for more physical beauty seems to be both a success and a failure. It depends how you look at the results.
It is a success to some degree as more women keep their youthful appearance to a greater age than in the past. “Old ladies”are already becoming rare. In a few years，we may well believe，they will be extinct. The Portrait of the Artists
Mother will come to be almost indistinguishable，at future picture shows，from the Portrait of the Artists Daughter. This desirable beauty will be due in part to skin foods and facial surgery，and in part to improved health. Ugliness is one of the symptoms of disease；beauty，of health. As the campaign for more beauty is also a campaign for more health，it is admirable. Still，it has problems. Indeed，with the development of technology，people have become healthier and more beautiful，but will every woman be beautiful―as beautiful，at any rate，as the natural shape of her features，with or without surgical and chemical aid，permits？
The answer is no. Real beauty is as much an affair of the inner self as on the outer self. The beauty of a china jar is a matter of shape and of color. The jar may be empty or occupied by spiders，full of honey or smelly slime （黏液）―it makes no difference to its beauty or ugliness. But a woman is alive，and her beauty is therefore not skin deep. The surface of the human vessel is affected by the nature of its spiritual contents.
I have seen lovely women. Their shape and their color were perfect. And yet they were not beautiful. For the lovely vase was either empty or filled with some ugly things. Spiritual emptiness or ugliness shows through. In contrast，there is an
inner light that can change imperfect or ugly forms into things that are beautiful and attractive. Much study has gone into how emotions aid persuasion. The best known and most studied is fear. It serves well in campaigns that try to stop you from doing something，like smoking. But fear doesnt always work，says Professor Monique Mitchell Turner，and over time，people become more resistant to scare methods. The same applies to guilt. “We dont want people to tell us were bad people，”says Turner. Anger，however，can be constructively used.
41. Whats the aim of the white bear task？
A. To make participants feel tired mentally.
B. To see what participants know about white bears.
C. To find out how well participants can control themselves
D. To help persuade participants to accept a onemonth holiday.

A. ask a man to support her
B. behave in an aggressive way
C. communicate with the woman online
D. talk to the woman face to face
43. According to John Sparks and Charles Arenis research，what is important for a testimonial？
A. The product price
B. The quality of the product
C. The writing style
D. The length of the testimonial
44. What will the author most probably talk about next？
A. Why emotions can help to persuade.
B. Turners other research findings
C. How to use anger to persuade.
D. Peoples resistance to anger methods.

A college degree has never been more necessary：graduates earn，on average，80% more than highschool graduates. Yet ever more Americans are taking on serious debt in exchange for that diploma. Between 2004 and 2014，studentloan balances more than tripled to nearly $1.2 trillion. The average debtor leaves college owing around $27，000.
Some of this mounting debt is good news. More Americans are going to college―undergraduate enrolment rose by nearly 40% between 2000 and 2010，according to the National Centre for Education Statistics. Many are also staying around for
a second degree. Average tuition fees have surged 40% in the decade to 201516 for fulltime students at public fouryear colleges，and 26% at private ones. Those who take longer to graduate―as many increasingly do―simply rack up more loans.
Unpaid student loans are now second only to mortgages （抵押?J款）when it comes to household debt in America. Though the housing market has been steadily recovering，the share of firsttime buyers continues to decline，and is now at its lowest point in nearly three decades，according to the National Association of Realtors. The homeownership rate among 30yearolds has been tumbling，but the fall has been especially fast among those paying off student loans，according to the New York Fed. So are the soaring costs of college keeping millennials from starting households of their own？Using longitudinal （?v向的）data on collegegoing Americans who were aged between 12 and 17 in 1997，the authors found that studentloan debtors were in fact more likely than nondebtors to own a house by the age of 30. But this was mostly because debtors tended to be older，employed，married and with children，and the debt was largely irrelevant.
Others have found that student debt may delay
homeownership，but does not deter it entirely. Young debtors were less likely to own a home than their debtfree peers. Yet when the authors confined their analysis to college graduates，they found that debtors in their late20s were more likely to own a home than nondebtors. So the reason for the delay in homebuying among those with student loans seems to have been that many had dropped out before earning their degree.
The decline in young homeowners seems to be part of a larger trend of deferring （推迟）the conventional trappings of adulthood. The share of 18 to 34yearolds who are married with children has fallen from 27% in 2000 to 20% in 2015. Several studies have asked whether student debt is nudging youngsters to put off marriage vows and stick to birth control，but the link seems tenuous. As for homeownership，perhaps the biggest challenge facing young homebuyers is the fact that prices have outpaced income growth for 15 years.
The amount of debt a student has is often less important than the college or the degree. Students with the most debt often have the greatest earning power，as degrees in business，law and medicine tend to be especially costly. The young adults who tend to be most hobbled by their student debt are those who either dropped out or went somewhere nonselective.
There are even signs that taking on more student debt reduces the odds of bouncing back home to live with ones parents，as long as it results in a degree. In an analysis of longitudinal data on collegegoing Americans born between 1980 and 1984，Mr. Houle and Cody Warner of Montana State University found that the young adults who returned home tended to be younger，underemployed，modestly indebted and from privileged homes. College dropouts had a particularly high risk of returning to the nest. Every 10% rise in college debt reduced the odds of returning home by around 17%.
Millennials may be sluggish （怠惰的）about starting their own households，but college graduates are more likely to do so than their lesseducated peers，according to the Pew Research Centre. The earnings of young degreeholders are nearly double those of young highschool graduates. There is little question that the rising cost of college education is a problem，but the cost of not going―or，worse，dropping out―is higher still. And it cites international studies which suggest this continues late into life，with insecure children more likely to leave school early or duck out of employment or training. They are also more likely to suffer from aggression，defiance and hyperactivity later in life. The Sutton
Trust says its analysis of the research suggests that about 40% of children in the UK lack a secure attachment with their parents. Lead author Sophie Moullin said that when her team looked at large scale representative studies in a number of countries they all found，from their observations，that between 38% and 42% of children suffered from poor attachment in all the different study locations. She added，“Secure attachment really helps children with emotional and social development and at school it really helps them to manage their behaviour. These are the things that teachers will tell you that are stopping children from learning. Its really only as we understand more about these behaviour problems that we have decided that a lot of it goes back to this early bonding with parents.”
Research director at the trust Conor Ryan said，“Better bonding between parents and babies could lead to more social mobility，as there is such a clear link to education，behaviour and future employment. The educational divide emerges early in life，with a 19month school readiness gap between the most and least advantaged children by the age of five.”
This report clearly identifies the fundamental role secure attachment could have in narrowing that school readiness gap
and improving childrens life chances. “More support from health visitors，childrens centres and local authorities in helping parents improve how they bond with young children could play a role in narrowing the education gap.”

五、One possible version：
Most people have a dream，but those who make it a reality are few and far between. Therefore，what counts is to have the same determination as the boy did.
Life without a dream proves to be a frozen field. However，the dream turns out to be an empty slogan unless you devote the constant efforts to fulfilling it. Nobody can achieve anything without persistence. Accordingly，one of the secrets to success is holding fast to your dream whatever it happens.
I have a dream that one day I can make a commitment to the education in the remote places where children are thirsty for knowledge. I hope that my devotion will make a difference to their lives. To realize the dream not only should I equip myself with abundant knowledge but also inspire more people to join me in helping those poor children. After all，many hands make light work.
