Geneva is situated between the Jura Range and the Alps on the western end of Lake Geneva. Capital of Peace is one of its names— the European headquarters of the United Nations lies here in Palais des Nations. Another worthy name for this city with a humanitarian tradition（人道主义传统）and international character is the World‘s Smallest Metropolis. Parks,splendid stores and lively streets in the old part of town and its 2000 — year history wait to be discovered.
The Jet d’Eau together with the Flower Watch are the main attractions every year for the tourists visiting Geneva. The Jet d’Eau has become the symbol(象征)of Geneva for a long time. This is a 140 meters high water monument with a rich history. Eight 13,500—watt projectors light the grand column(圆柱)of the fountain in the evening, from early March until the second Sunday of October. The Flower Watch, which was created at the edge of the English Garden in 1955,reminds us about that Geneva is the birthplace of the Swiss clock and watch making, and that this industry has become internationally
famous, as well through the quality of the watches as through their beautiful appearance.

Since many of you are planning to study at a college or university in this country, you may be curious to know what you usually do in a typical week, how you can get along with your fellow students, and so on.These are the questions I want to discuss with you today.
First, let‘s talk about what your weekly schedule will look like. No matter what your major may be, you can expect to spend between four and six hours a week for each class attending lectures. Lectures are usually in very large rooms because some courses such as introduction to sociology or economics often have

as many as two or three hundred students, especially at large universities. In lectures, it‘s very important for you to take notes on what the professor says because the information a lecture is often different from the information in your textbooks. Also, you can expect to have exam questions based on the lectures. So it isn‘t enough to just read your textbooks; you have to attend lectures as well. In a typical week you will also have a couple of hours of discussion for every class you take. The discussion section is a small group meeting usually with fewer than thirty students where you can ask questions about the lectures, the reading, and the homework. In large universities, graduate students, called teaching assistants, usually direct discussion sections.
If your major is chemistry, or physics, or another science, you‘ll also have to spend several hours a week in the lab, or laboratory, doing experiments. This means that science majors spend more time in the classroom than non science majors do. On the other hand, people who major in subjects like literature or history usually have to read and write more than science majors do. 59. The main purpose of this text is .
A. to help the students to learn about university life B. to persuade the students to attend lectures
C. to encourage the sudents to take part in discussions D. to advise the students to choose proper majors
60. We can learn from the passage that university professors . A. spend about 5 hours on lectures each week B. must join the students in the discussion sections C. prefer to use textbooks in their lectures
D. require the students to read beyond the textbooks 61.A discussion section does NOT include .
A. working under the guidance of university professors
B. talking over what the students have read about the courses C. discussing the problems related to the students‘ homework
D. raising questions about what a professor has said in a lecture 62. According to the author, science majors .
A. have to work harder than non science majors
B. spend less time on their studies than non science majors C. consider experiments more important than discussions D. read and write less than non science majors

A letter to Edward, a columnist(报刊专栏作家）
Dear Mr Expert:
I grew up in an unhappy and abusive home. I always Promised myself that I‘d get out as soon as possible. Now, at age 20,I have a good job and a nice house, and I‘m really proud of the independence I‘ve achieved.
Here‘s the problem: several of my friends who still live with their parents wish they had places like mine — so much so that they make mine theirs.
It started out with a couple of them spending the weekends with me. But now they seem to take it for granted that they can shou up any time they like. They bring boyfriends over, talk on the phone and stay out forever.
I enjoy having my friends here sometimes— it makes the place feel comfortable and warm— but this is my home, not a party house. I was old enough to move out on my own, so why can’t I seem to ask my friends to respect my privacy(隐私)?
Joan
Edward‘s reply to Joan Dear Joan:
If your family didn‘t pay attention to your needs when you were a child, you probably have trouble letting others know your needs now.
And if you‘ve gathesed yourfriends around you to rebuild a happy family atmosphere(气氛),you may fear that saying no will bring back the kind of
