My senior years, I can’t believe it is almost over. Now when I look back, it was stressful, but exciting, the ball, graduation, and then of course, college.
I started applying for my college months before Christmas. My parents told me it would be smart if I set up interviews and tours. But I wasn’t motivated. I wanted to go to college, but I didn’t want to deal with the stress.
As the days flew by, my applications lay on my desk just as I had left them three months before. “You are wasting valuable time,” my parents complained. Sweeping away the gathered dust on the applications, I worked on them every Sunday until I finished. Next came writing the essays. I had many ideas, but every school had different requirements. I changed them until I was pleased. Finally, everything was underway.
Now I just had to wait. In March, I started receiving letters of rejection. I began to think that I had set myself up for disappointment. I had a letter from Salem State College starting that they wanted to see my grades before they made their decision. Yes! At least someone wanted to consider me. At the beginning of April, I received a letter from Keens State. Those opening words: “We regret to inform you…” made me sit down and cry. I had lost all hope. Then I heard from Plymouth State. Not my first choice, but…I had been accepted. Maybe if I get my grades up, I can choose another school…
The college application hurt me deeply. All my friends had dozens of schools to choose from. I guess my parents were right. High school grades are undoubtedly important to your future plans. If I could do it all over again, I would take it more seriously.
1.What does the sentence “We regret to inform you…” mean?
A. The writer was accepted by the college.
B. The writer couldn’t go to college forever.
C. The writer couldn’t go to any college.
D. The writer was rejected by the college.
2.From the last paragraph, we know the writer felt ________.
A. honorable B. regretful(遗憾的)
C. hopeless D. happy
3.From the text, we know that ________.
A. the writer didn’t go to a college
B. the writer thought senior years was easy
C. the writer didn’t desire to go to college.
D. the writer didn’t prepare interviews actively
4.Why was the writer rejected by many colleges?

B. He got bad grades in senior years.
C. He wanted to deal with the stress.
D. Every school had different requirements.

Let us suppose it is now about A.D. 2060. Let's make believe it is about 47 years from now. Of course, things have changed and life is very different.
Voyages to the moon are being made every day. It is as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 1960 to take a holiday in Europe. At a number of scenic spots on the moon, many hotels have been built. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon, every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of young and old.
What are people eating now? People are still eating food. They haven't yet started to take on heir(继承) supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power. They may some day. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants.
Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago, most of our planet's surface has to be filled. The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer destroyed by pests. The harvest is always good.
Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then.
We are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds, and we know the causes and cure of disease and pain, and it is possible to get rid of diseases. No one has to be ill any more.
Such would be our life in 2060.

When my college life begins, I feel it is quite different from senior high school life.
Above all, there are various activities on the campus(校园). They arouse our enthusiasm and we all like to take part in them, from which we benefit much.
Besides, we have to learn how to look after ourselves. When I was in high school, I lived with my parents and they took perfect care of me. But now, I'm in a new place. If I still depend on others, I would never adapt myself to the new surroundings. So college life makes me mature.
In senior high school, teachers would drive me to study if I didn't work hard. But now, it seems to be another story--study becomes my own business(actually it should always be). More often than not, I'm in the classroom studying on my own. So I can say it is college life that lets me know how to study.
