Comparing college entrance exams, there are different needs for admission.The national college entrance examination, or gaokao, is known as the most competitive test for Chinese students.Do students in other countries also need to take a standardized test to get into university
South Korea holds the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT) in November each year.The CSAT plays an important role in the country's education.On test day, bus and subway frequency increases to make sure that students can get to the test sites in time.
Japan is trying to reform its standardized national college entrance exam.In January 2022, Common Test for University Admissions took the place of the National Center Test for University Admissions, which had been adopted since 1990.The new exam aims to put emphasis on the ability of students to discover and solve problems by themselves.
The American College Test (ACT) and Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT) are the two main college entrance exams taken by students in the US.While SAT tests a student's ability to learn, the ACT tests a student's educational development.Both tests normally take place seven times throughout the year.Students can retake the exams for a better score.
In the UK, there's no standardized test for college admission.Instead, each college has its own admission criteria.These criteria often only include submission of transcripts (成绩单) and participation in an interview.Yet, there are subject－specific exams used by some colleges.
1．What is the purpose of the new test in Japan
A．To improve students' learning environments.

Not educated as a child, Jiang Shumei never imagined, even in her wildest dreams, that she would publish a book one day. Now, at the age of 87, the granny is a proud author of six books.
Jiang learned her first Chinese character at the age of 60. When her husband died after a car accident, her daughter suggested that she learn reading to take her mind off loneliness and sorrow. Unlike other beginners, Jiang “drew” every single character like drawing pictures. Whenever she saw unknown characters, she would ask for help.
As Jiang learned enough characters, she started to read literary works. Attracted by the stories, she wished to share her own stories and began to put pen to paper at 75. But it was not a walk in the park. Sometimes completing one sentence would take a day. She usually started writing at 3 a．m. or 4 a．m., and revised the pieces several times until she was satisfied.
Her daughter published her stories on social media platforms before they drew attention from her writer friends. Therefore, Jiang made a bold (大胆的) decision: to publish them. The first book, titled “Time of Trouble, Time of Poverty”， was published later, which proved to be a success. Some critics praised it as the “live history of the nation plagued (困扰、折磨) by war, death, and hunger.” With the book, Jiang earned lots of fans, to whom she said, “Don't feel sorry for me. The hardship as mentioned in the book is now the past. Without all the hardship, I could never have finished this book.”
So far the old lady has published six books, with 600,000 plus characters in total. In her spare time, she is also learning painting and calligraphy. Her dream now is to have her own art exhibition at the age of 90. “If I could live as old as 130, would you still say it is too late for me to start after 60？” she asked, jokingly.
4．What made Jiang begin learning to read at the age of 60
A．To publish her books in the future.
B．To ease her loneliness and sadness.
C．To draw some Chinese characters.
D．To challenge herself with a new skill.
5．At what age did Jiang begin her journey of writing
A．60.　 　　B．75.　 　　C．87.　 　　D．90.
6．Which of the following words can best describe Jiang
A．Educated and confident.
B．Ambitious and generous.
C．Professional and proud.
D．Determined and positive.
7．What can we learn from the last paragraph
A．Reading makes a full man.
B．Doing is better than saying.
C．It's never too old to learn.
D．Interest is the best teacher.
C
When it comes to entrepreneurship (企业家), it seems like a lot of us are fond of the idea of NOT getting more education.Sure, we've all heard how some successful people dropped out of college to start their own business.A lot of would－be solopreneurs (独立创业者) think this means they should take the same course, putting education by the wayside to chase their business goals.
Now, I'm not saying that you need a college degree to be a successful entrepreneur.But all too often, people take these famous examples a step too far and decide they don't need to further their education in any way.
The thing is, college isn't the only place you can get an education. Some successful people learned a lot outside their classroom settings to turn their companies into the global successes they are today.When it comes to entrepreneurship, the most successful people are generally the ones who develop a lifelong love of learning.It's a feature worth imitating.
When we think of “exercise”， most of us think of sweaty people at the gym running on treadmills and lifting weights.We don't think of hitting_the_books.But the brain is actually a muscle too.And just like you need those physical workouts so you don't start getting saggy (松弛的) around the middle, you need to give your brain regular “workouts” that keep it active and healthy.
Contrary to popular belief, your brain doesn't stop growing after adolescence.One recent study found that the brain continues to produce new neurons associated with learning, emotion and memory throughout adulthood.Of course, the outcomes of this ongoing development depend in part on your own efforts.
If you're not feeling motivated to work out your brain, it might be helpful to consider the costs of not continuing to learn.Quite simply, the problems you have now — whether in business or other areas of your life — are going to continue to exist if you don't find new ways to approach them.The things you learn will help you discover new solutions and think more creatively.When done right, training your brain can become a lifelong habit — just like going for a morning run or hitting the gym at the end of the work day.
8．What can we learn from the first two paragraphs
A．It is no use obtaining college degree.
B．It is not necessary to further our education.
C．It is more important to chase business goals.
D．It is vital to view these successful examples sensibly.
9．What does the underlined phrase “hitting the books” in paragraph 4 mean
A．Getting rid of the books.　　 B．Diving into the books.
C．Purchasing the books. D．Referring to the books.
10．What can we know about the brain from this text
A．The brain can be active by continuous learning.
B．The brain can produce new neurons all the life.
C．Working out the brain can solve all the problems.
D．Working out the brain will cost you a lot.
11．What is the main idea of the text

C．Non－stop learning should be a lifelong habit.
D．It is important to develop a passion for learning.

We live in a world where we want everything instantly.In this instant world it is hard to succeed in anything.To achieve your goal you first have to change your life from instantly to persistently.
Persistence is the course you need to set.When you change your expectancy from instantly to persistently you will gain an advantage of time that many do not have.Time works against those who live instantly.Opportunities are never seen because when something doesn't happen instantly people move on to the next thing on their list and consider the current goal a failure.
Persistent people have the advantage of time.It allows them to step back, observe and assess the progress of the goal they are pursuing.Some things take longer to develop; some just need to be left there for a while to find their own way.
When you live instantly you gain and lose instantly.Many times you do not know how you got there or how to get back because it is not repeatable.When you live persistently you learn how things work, how to correct a plan and how to guide it to make it successful.You do not panic because you know you have more than enough time.
Slow down and take time to enjoy the journey.If what you are doing is not fun then stop doing it and do something else.
Everything you do should be in pursuit of a better tomorrow than you had yesterday.You should take time to develop your abilities to reach your goals.Do not get discouraged just because your success is not instant.
Celebrate each step along the way.People who live instantly don't take time to appreciate what they have accomplished.They are just looking for the next thing that they can get instantly.
You must be grateful for the time it takes to reach your goal.Persistence will get you there if you really want to get there.
12．Why do people who want things instantly fail in many things
A．They want greater efficiency.
B．They don't stick to their goal.
C．They often change their lifestyle.
D．They tend to pursue a higher target.
13．What's the main advantage persistent people have over instant people
A．The willpower.　　　　　 B．A target.
C．A plan. D．An opportunity.
14．According to the text, persistent people ________.
A．focus more on the result
B．work slower than instant people
C．will get rewarded for their efforts
D．don't appreciate what they have done
15．What's the author's main purpose of writing the text
A．To blame those who live instantly.
B．To persuade people to live happily.
C．To praise those who have succeeded.
D．To suggest learning the art of persistence.

You can take fish oil supplements.You can invest in a language class.There are countless ways to improve your memory and cognitive functioning.__16__.It's called reading.It is amazing how such an ordinary activity can improve your brain in so many ways.
The most basic impact occurs in the brain area associated with language reception.Compared with processing spoken language, reading encourages the brain to work harder and better.__17__.A study found that some of those benefits lasted for five days.Reading also energizes the region responsible for motor activity.That's because the brain is a very lively play actor.When it is reading about a physical activity, the neurons (神经元) that control that activity get busy as well.You may not actually be riding a horse when you're reading Seabiscuit, but your brain acts as if it is.__18__， the better it is for your overall cognitive performance.
What if you are a poor reader who feels as if you would never be able to read enough to harvest these benefits？__19__.Scientists studied children aged eight to ten who were below－average readers.One hundred hours of reading classes significantly improved the quality of their brains' white matter — the tissue that carries signals between areas of gray matter, where information is processed.
__20__.Results from a study indicate that close literary reading gives your brain a better workout than leisurely reading.The ability to read closely needs to be developed.So turn off your phone and your computer, set aside a good hour or two and just read.
A．Reading is good for your health
B．A book can fix that problem too
C．If you read books on a regular basis
D．Not all reading is actually created equal
E．And the benefits continue long after reading
F．The more parts of your brain that get a workout
G．But the effective way to sharpen your brain is right here

Mrs Palin spoke as she walked to the front of the classroom, “Next Wednesday, I'll give you a test to check your ability as a conductor.Now, select one of the composers listed on the chalkboard.And after class, find a tape containing the composition created by the composer.During the test, use the tape player to play the composition.When the music starts, imagine you are the conductor of an orchestra that performs the composer's music.” And then she smiled, “You'll receive the test in front of your classmates.”
“What A test in front of the classmates It will kill me，” I said to myself.Although normally I perform well in music, and often have high marks, I am quite a shy girl.After a short while, I took a deep breath and scanned the list of names on the chalkboard.One name caught my attention.
“Who's that person？” I wondered.I didn't know, but that was going to be my choice.
Seated in the classroom, I fixed my eyes on that name anxiously, hoping no one would announce that name.Finally, it was my turn.I said without a second thought, “Johannes Brahms.” Once I said the name, panic washed over me.I sighed, “How am I going to do this I know nothing about the person and his composition.But I have to perform in front of my classmates and teacher.”
Later in the day, I went to a store and bought a tape that contained Johannes Brahms's compositions and its relevant music notation (乐谱)．Back home, I played the tape, and tried to get familiar with the composition.When listening to the composition and looking at the music score, I held a stick and moved my arms to and fro (来回地), pretending to be guiding an orchestra.During the following days, I kept practicing but didn't perform quite well.The composition was indeed hard to me.
When the big day came, I felt nervous as I slipped into my seat and waited for my turn to perform.Eventually, Mrs Palin called my name, “Jill, it's your turn.”

参考范文：
Then, I forced myself to walk to the front of the classroom.Standing in front of all the students made me very nervous, and my legs kept shaking.To make the matter worse, my brain went blank at that very moment, forgetting my previous practice.However, I tried to remind myself to be calm.After a few deep breaths, I felt much better and began to perform.Thinking my conduct must be terrible, I was even unwilling to think about the result.
The next day, Mrs Palin handed each student a piece of paper with a score.With my report card in hand, my heart pounded because I was afraid that I would be the one who got the lowest score.I closed my eyes and slowly opened my report card.To my surprise, I got a high score.When the teacher announced that I was the best in my class, I almost jumped with joy.I understood that only by working hard can we get good results.
