1．If feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation，it turns into an argument．We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly，my mother will push the conversation into World War？She'll talk about my lack of a bright future because I don't plan to be a doctor．And much to her disappointment，I don't want to do any job related to science，either．In fact，when I was pushed to say that I planned to major （主修） in English and communications，she nearly had a heart attack．
"Why can't you be like my coworker's son？"she bemoans all the time．Her coworker's son received a four year scholarship and is now earning 70，000 dollars a year as an engineer．I don't know what to answer except that I simply can't be like Mr Perfect as I've called the unnamed coworker's son．I can't be like him．I'm the type of person who loves to help out in the community，write until the sun goes down，and most of all，wants to achieve a career because I love it，not because of fame （名聲） or salary．
I understand why my mother is worried about my future major．I've seen my mother struggle to raise me on her small salary and work long hours．She leaves the house around 6：30 am and usually comes home around 5 pm or even 6 pm．However，I want her to know that by becoming a doctor，it doesn't mean I'll be successful．I'd rather follow my dreams and create my own future．

2．READY or not，the college application season has begun．There are two main kinds of early admissions programs：Early Action and Early Decision．
Early Action is a great choice for the well-prepared student．Students apply early，and are allowed to apply under an Early Action program to as many colleges as they choose．The biggest advantage for students is that colleges let them know early-in most cases，before Jan 1．Roughly 15 percent of colleges and universities offer an Early Action option（選擇）．Oct 15 is now the first deadline for many colleges and universities．This movement toward earlier deadlines is especially popular in the Southeast，with many of the large public universities leading the way．North Carolina State University，the University of South Carolina and the University of Georgia all have an Oct 15 Early Action deadline．
Early Decision is a promise that cannot be reversed．Students who are accepted must take back their other applications and should attend that school．Students are allowed to apply to just one school under an Early Decision program．Early Decision deadlines are in early November，with colleges letting students know by mid-December．Many students believe that they are more likely to be accepted if they apply for Early Decision，but it actually depends．
In some cases there is big increase in students being accepted，and at other colleges it is not that big at all．Generally，the strongest students are applying early．Athletes and students with focused interests are encouraged to apply for Early Decision

（1）What is the author's purpose in writing the article？

A．a(chǎn)rranged
B．balanced
C．a(chǎn)ccepted
D．changed

3．MONTREAL（Reuters）-Crossing the US-Canada border to go to church on a Sunday cost an American ＄10，000 for breaking Washington's strict new security rules．
The expensive trip to church was a surprise for Richard Albert，who lives right on the Canadian border．Albert often crosses the border like the other half-dozen people of Township 15．The nearby Quebec village of St．Pamphile is where they shop，eat and go to church．
There are many such situations in these areas along the largely unguarded 5，530-mile border between Canada and the US，which in some cases actually runs down the middle of streets or through buildings．
As a result，Albert says he did not expect any problems three weeks ago when he returned home to the US after attending church in Canada，as usual．The US customs station in this area is closed on Sundays，so he just drove around the locked gate，as he had done every weekend since the gate appeared last May，following a tightening of border security．Two days later．Albert was told to go to the customs office，where an officer told him he had been caught on camera crossing the border illegally．
Ottawa has given out special passes to some 300 Americans in that area so they can enter the country when Canadian customs（海關(guān)） stations are closed，but the US stopped a similar program last May．That forces the people to a 200-mile detour along hilly roads to get home through another border checkpoint．
Albert has requested that the customs office change their decisions on the fine，but he has not attended a Sunday church since．"I feel like I'm living in a prison，"he said．
（1）We learn from the text that Richard Albert is．
A．a(chǎn)n American working in a Canadian church
B．a(chǎn) Canadian living in a Quebec village
C．a(chǎn) Canadian working in a customs station
D．a(chǎn)n American living in Township 15
（2）Albert was fined because he．
A．broke the American security rules
B．failed to obey traffic rules
C．worked in St．Pamphile without a pass
D．damaged the gate of the customs office
（3）What would be the best title for the text？
A．A Cross-country Trip
B．An Expensive Church Visit
C．An Unguarded Border
D．A Special Border Pass組卷：3引用：2難度：0.7
