Section B
(A)
Acting is such an over-crowded profession that the only advice that should be given to a young person thinking of going on the stage is Dont!. But it is useless to try to discourage someone who feels that he must act, though the chances of his becoming famous are slim. The normal way to begin is to go to a drama school. Usually only students who show promise and talent are accepted, and the course lasts two years. Then the young actor or actress takes up work with a repertory company, usually as an assistant stage manager. This means doing everything that there is to do in the theatre: painting scenery, looking after the furniture, taking care of the costumes, and even acting in very small parts. It is very hard work indeed. The hours are long and the salary is tiny. But young actors with the stage in their blood are happy, waiting for the chances of working with a better company, or perhaps in films or television.
Of course, some people have unusual chances which lead to fame and success without this long and dull training. Connie Pratt, for example, was just an ordinary girl working in a bicycle factory. A film producer happened to catch sight of her one morning waiting at a bus stop, as he drove past in his big car. He told the driver to stop, and he got out to speak to the girl. He asked her if she would like to go to the film studio to do a test, and at first she thought he was joking. Then she got angry and said she would call the police. It took the producer twenty minutes to tell Connie that he was serious. Then an appointment was made for her to go to the studio the next day. The test was successful. They gave her some necessary lessons and within a few weeks she was playing the leading part opposite one of the most famous actors of the day. Of Course, she was given a more dramatic name, which is now world-famous. But chances like this happen once in a blue moon!
66. According to the passage, the main reason why young people should be discouraged from becoming actors is ______.
A. actors are very unusual people
B. the course at the drama school lasts two years
C. acting is really a hard job
D. there are already too many actors
67. According to the context, the sentence 揃ut young actors with the stage in their blood are happy at the end of the first paragraph means ______.
A. they don’t care if their job is hard
B. they like the stage naturally
C. they are born happy
D. they are easily satisfied
68. Connie Pratt soon became a famous actress after ______.
A. learning some lessons about the art of speaking
B. playing her part in the “Blue Colored Moon”
C. successfully matching the most famous actors
D. acting a leading part with a most famous actor at that time
69. The phrase “once in a blue moon” in last line means ______.
A. all at once B. once for a long time
C. once in a while D. once and for all

How to Do Well in Exams
Do not underestimate the power of revision in the days and hours before an examination. The closer you are to the exam, the more chance you have of storing and retaining crucial information. But do not overdo it. _______54_______ An effective daily routine can help you through an exam period, so in the days leading up to your first exam, get into the habit of being up and ready to work by game. It can be a shock to the system after months of working to your own timetable to be mentally alert at that time if you have not prepared for it.
On the day of the exam, have a good breakfast, pack two of everything you need (pens, pencils, erasers, etc.), then make your way to the examination hall in good time. ______55_______
Once in your seat, simply pause for a few seconds and collect your thoughts. Close your eyes and take in a few slow, deep breaths to help you relax. When you turn over the test paper, spend a short period reading through all the instructions and questions, paying particular attention to key verbs such as "discuss", "compare" and "evaluate". ______56_______ It is wise always to allow for 10 minutes at the end of the exam to give yourself time to go back over your answers. Once you have selected the questions you wish to tackle, begin by attempting the one you think is your strongest. It will give you more confidence when you see a well-answered question down on paper. Also remember to write clearly, and do not be afraid to express the unexpected: after all, examiners can get very bored marking stereotypical answers.
_______57_______ If you do need something else to focus on to help collect your thoughts, choose a fixture in the room, such as the ceiling - or anything else that will not allow you to be distracted.
Finally, once you have finished, never hang around outside afterwards to attend the discussion by other students. Go and have a well-earned rest- then prepare for your next exam

At present, short messages are widely involved in various TV programs.People react to them in different ways.
Defenders hold the view that short messages offer the audiences more chances to participate in the live programs.In this way, the mass media benefit a lot from them.On the other hand, they appeal to the need of the young people.
Critics accuse that if the short messages are out of control, we cannot ensure the taste of the programs.What’s more, the expenses may make audiences feel bad.To make matters worse, some adolescents are so addicted to them that too much time and energy are wasted.
As far as I am concerned, the short message is typical of information technology, but it is a powerful tool that needs to be used with care.
