2．A very popular band，Jonas Brothers，released its fourth album this week．The first album by the Jonas Brothers is"It's About Time"．It was written a few years ago by the youngest brother，Nick Jonas．He was sixteen in 2009．
In most families，the little brother follows the bigger ones around．But in the Jonas Brothers band，Nick is the leader．In fact his brothers call him"Mr．President"．Kevin，twenty-one，and Joe，nineteen，say they respect Nick's organizational skills and work ethic（道德）．
Nick formed the band in 2005，but he had performed in Broadway musicals since the age of seven．The Jonas Brothers started with Columbia records but were dropped from the list after their first album，Disney owned Hollywood Records then signed the brothers．

The band does not write Christian songs but the brothers are influenced by their religion （宗教）．The band and other family members say a group prayer of thanks before each Jonas Brothers'performance．And each brother wears a ring on the third finger of his left hand．It is a symbol of their belief in waiting until marriage．
Hollywood Records made a good move in signing the Jonas Brothers．Their second album with the company went to number one on Billboard Magazine popular music charts．One of the songs deals with the disease diabetes（糖尿�。�
A few days ago，the Jonas Brothers came out with their fourth record．Critics say"Lines，Vines and Trying Times"is an attempt by the band to move into the adult market without dismissing  younger fans．Some reviewers（評論人） say the record succeeds．Others disagree．

10．After my sixth voyage I was quite determined that I would never go to sea．One early spring day，however，I was brought to see the Caliph．He said，"Sindbad，I have chosen you to deliver a letter and a gift to the King of Serendib in return for his message of friendship．"
The Caliph's commandment fell upon me like a thunderbolt（晴天霹靂）．
"Your Majesty，"I answered，"I am ready to do all that your Majesty commands，but I have made a promise never again to leave Baghdad．"
"I admit，"said he，"that you have indeed had some extraordinary experiences，but I do not see why they should prevent you from doing as I wish．You have only to go straight to Serendib and give my message，and come back as you will．"
At last，I agreed．The Caliph was delighted and gave me a thousand sequins （gold coins） for the expenses of the voyage．Soon I sailed quickly and safely to Serendib after a nearly 30-day voyage where I was well received，and brought into the presence of the king．
I displayed the Caliph's gifts：a bed which cost a thousand sequins，and more beds of different fashion．The King received the assurance of the Caliph's friendliness with satisfaction．Since my task was accomplished，I was anxious to depart．The king dismissed me with many presents，and I left immediately on the end day of May．On the fifth day we suffered from pirates（海盜） who killed some of us and made the rest prisoners of whom I was one．On a distant island they sold us for slaves．I fell into the hands of a rich merchant．
The merchant asked me to shoot elephants in the forest．When he left，he said，"When you have succeeded in killing one come and tell me．"
So saying，he gave me a supply of food and returned to the town．I settled myself in the tree and kept watching．The next morning I saw a large group of elephants passing by．I shot one to death and run back to tell my master of my success，for which I was praised and regaled（宴請，款待） with good things．Then we went back to bury the elephant I had killed，in order that when it became a skeleton my master might return and keep its tusks safely．
I hunted for two months．One morning as I watched the coming of the elephants which paused instead of passing the tree，trumpeting（嚎叫，吼叫） horribly．I was terrified．The largest of the animals brought me to the ground．I thought now that my last hour was surely come； but the huge creature，picking me up gently enough； set me upon its back，then turned into the forest．After what seemed a long time to me，I was standing on a great hill where there was filled with bones and tusks of elephants which are more than I could carry away in a lifetime．
I run to my master's house，and was received by him with joyful surprise．He asked me what had happened to me and why I was still alive．I soon satisfied his curiosity，and the next day we went together to the Ivory Hill，and he was overjoyed to find as many tusks．
He said，"My brother，these wild elephants have killed numbers of our slaves every year．You alone have escaped； therefore you must be under the special protection of Heaven．You deserve your liberty，and I will give you a fortune．"
I only asked liberty to return to my own country
"Well，"he answered，"the monsoon will soon bring the ivory ships here，and then I will send you on your way．"
So I stayed with him till the time of the monsoon．When the ships at last arrived，my master put on board for me a great store of supply，also lots of ivory，and said me goodbye．I left without feeling at ease upon the sea after what had happened．I sold my ivory and bought many expensive presents．I joined a traveling team of merchants．Our journey was long and boring，but gradually，I did not to fear storms，or pirates，or any of the other dangers．When the fall wind came blowing，we reached Baghdad．
I brought myself to the Caliph and told him everything about my experience．My story was written in letters of gold，and laid up among his treasures．I took my leave of him，well satisfied with the honors and rewards he gave me； and since that time I have rested from my labors，and given myself up wholly to my family and my friends．

11．For many students in the UK today，deciding whether or not to go to university can be as much about affordability as it is about ambition and aspiration．
In the past，students in the UK could apply to a university or college．They were sure that even if they came from a low income family，their tuition fees and some of their living （or maintenance） costs would be covered by a local authority grant（撥款）．A university education was，in a financial sense，open to all and the number of students attending university grew yearly．
Sadly，it seems，those days are long gone．The turning point came in 1998，when the Labour Government introduced tuition fees of￡1，000 a year and，instead of giving students a maintenance grant，asked them to cover their own living expenses with a repayable student loan．Only students on the lowest incomes were entitled to a grant．
The flood gates had been opened．As time passed，the ceiling on tuition fees rose，and although applicants from Scotland，Northern Ireland and Wales still qualified for varying levels of subsidy（補貼），by 2009/10 students in England often found themselves facing tuition fees over￡3，000 a year．
In 2011 the Government announced that，from 2012，universities could charge fees of up to￡9，000 a year．Although the Government sweetened the pillby stating that postgraduates did not have to begin repaying their student loans until they were earning more than￡21，000 a year，the news created over-dissatisfaction．Many students argued that it was unfair that students should have to begin their work life loaded with huge debt，while others complained that the changes would bring back a class divide to university education．These views were reflected in the number of students applying for a university place，which by January 2012 fell by more than 22，000．The Universities Minister，David Willetts，stood by the decision to increase tuition fees，saying that they would not"put universities'finance on a bearable footing"and that they would accelerate"a stronger focus on high quality teaching．"

56．From the first paragraph，we can infer thatCin attending university．
A．a(chǎn)ffordability plays more important roles than ambition and aspiration
B．a(chǎn)mbition and aspiration are more important than affordability
C．a(chǎn)ffordability is as important as ambition and aspiration
D．a(chǎn)mbition and aspiration make a greater difference
57．We can put the sentence"But the biggest change was still to come"at the beginning of ParagraphD
A.2           
B.3           
C.4           
D.5
58．The underlined part"sweetened the pill"in the last paragraph possibly meansB
A．made a sweet pill                
B．made the change appear good
C．increased the pill                   
D．reduced the pill
59．The writerBthe change about university education fees．
A．is in favor of                       
B．is opposed to
C．takes no notice of                   
D．is neither for nor against．
