　　Greg Evans started to study film at Ryerson University, but had a change of heart and switched to social work at George Brown College in second year. Yet the college recognized only one of Evans' general­interest credits from Ryerson, and also made him take English all over again although he had passed it at university.

　　“So I spent time and money taking a course I had already taken before, which took up time I could have been working another shift every week，” complained Evans. “The system really needs to change.”Evans was part of a chorus of Ontario students Monday cheering a new $ 73.7 million five­year plan to help students switch from college to university, and vice versa.

　　After years of urging from students, Queen's Park unveiled a new Credit Transfer Innovation Fund to provide student advisers, an interactive website and orientation programs to help students move back and forth between the more hands­on courses of community college to the often broader academic focus of a university degree. “We hear horror stories about students who can't get recognition from one institution for a very similar course at another, and in one case I believe the same professor was teaching them both，” noted Milloy after announcing the new fund.

　　Individual colleges and universities have hammered out nearly 500 mutual deals to honor each other's credits in certain courses, but the province wants more, especially between clusters of post­secondary institutions. It will require each school to set targets for more credit­transfer agreements, and link these increases to provincial funding.

　　More than 4,000 college graduates transfer(转学) to university in Ontario every year­twice as many as eight years ago, noted Justin Fox, president of the College Student Alliance. Yet Ontario universities and colleges have been cautious about transferring credits, in part to avoid duplicating each other's courses, noted Bonnie Patterson, president of the Council of Ontario Universities, who welcomed the increased flexibility.

　　Late that afternoon I took the train back to Sydney. There I found another surprise waiting for me. My room had been given to somebody else and they had no room for me. Harkin had known my travel plans and had arranged everything; how could he have booked the room only for three days? There was nothing to be done but to find another hotel. The waiters were happy to find me a new hotel, and when I said that I was happy to stay at the Airport, thinking it might be cheaper than staying in the city, they suggested the Holiday Inn at the airport. There was one small matter: the room rate was $300 per night. The best hotel in Katoomba had wanted only$145. I asked if there were anything cheaper they might suggest but they warned that most hotels would already be full by this time.

　　The hotel was far from the train station, so I'd best take a taxi, at $25. On the way to the Holiday Inn, we passed a hotel just two blocks from the Holiday Inn that advertised a room rate of $104. At the desk I asked if their room rate could go down a lot. “No, this is a 4­star hotel，”the waiter told me. “In that case，” I replied, “I'll just walk the two blocks to the cheap hotel.”But she warned me that they were probably full and that if I didn't take the room, it might not be available if I came back. Finally，I decided to take the room.

　　The room itself was big, but the air conditioning couldn't keep up with the Australian heat. I couldn't get to sleep until about 1：00 am.

　　BIG storms. High waves. Technical failures. Loneliness. After battling hard times and danger for over nine months, British teenager Mike Perham made history last month as the youngest person to sail solo (单独地) around the world.

　　The 17­year­old made the record after he cleared the Panama Canal (巴拿马运河) and then sailed through the Caribbean and home across the Atlantic.

　　Mike is only three months younger than Zac Sunderland，the 17­year­old Amencan boy who had taken the crown as the youngest solo around­the­world sailor in July.

　　The two youngsters met in Cape Town in South Africa as they crossed the globe in different directions. Mike insisted they were not rivals (竞争对手).

　　“ No.

　　It's two teenagers going out there, living their dream and having the adventure of a lifetime，”

　　he said.

　　Mike may he young, but he is no stranger to sailing adventures.

　　He picked up the hobby at age 6 when his father took him out in a small boat on a local lake.

　　Father and son sailed separate boats across the Atlantic when Mike was 14, making him the youngest person to cross that ocean solo. That record gave him the taste for this even greater challenge.

　　On the recent journey, the scariest moment for Mike came when his sailboat was hit by storms in the southern Indian Ocean.

　　“We were picked up by what felt like a 60­foot wave and throw down on our side at 90 degrees，” he said.

　　It felt like I was going right over. Stuff was flying around and I just thought‘Oh，no'.

　　At other times, he had to dive into the Pacific and fix problems. He tied himself to the boat, jumped into the water and went to work with a knife in 30­second dives underneath the boat to cut a rope away.

　　Mike said he felt proud that he made his dream come true.“You've got to have confidence in yourself that you will make it，” he said.

　　29．What's the main idea of the passage?

　　A．A British teenager became the youngest person to sail solo around the world.

　　B．How a British teenager developed his sailing hobby.

　　C．A British teenager's brave experience.

　　D．A British teenager' s confidence.

　　．Which of the following statements is NOT true?

　　A．Mike Perham crossed the Panama Canal.

　　B．Mike and Zac took the crown as the youngest solo around­the­world sailor at

　　the same age.

　　C．The two youngsters crossed the globe in different directions.

　　D．Mike was never frightened during the sailing.

　　31．What does the underlined word “taste” in the fifth paragraph mean?

　　A．Savor.

　　B．Preference.C．Experience.

　　D．Ability.

　　Coffee has a history dating back to at least the 9th century and has been a catalyst for social interaction across cultures and eras. Originally discovered in Ethiopia, coffee beans were brought into the Middle East by Arab traders, spreading to Egypt, Yemen, Persia, Turkey, and North Africa by the 15th century. Muslim merchants eventually brought the beans to the thriving port city of Venice, where they sold them to wealthy Italian buyers. Soon, the Dutch began importing and growing coffee in places like Java and Ceylon (largely through slave labor), and the British East India Trading Company was popularizing the beverage in England. Coffee spread across Europe and even reached America.

　　Where there has been coffee, there has been the coffeehouse. From the 15th century Middle Eastern establishments where men gathered to listen to music, play chess, and hear recitations from works of literature, to Paris' Cafe le Procope where luminaries of the French Enlightenment such as Voltaire, Rousseau, and Diderot came to enjoy a hot cup of joe, coffeehouses have traditionally served as centers of social interaction, places where people can come to relax, chat, and exchange ideas.

　　The modern coffee shop is modeled on the espresso and pastry­centered Italian coffeehouses that arose with the establishment of Italian­American immigrant communities in major US cities such as New York City's Little Italy and Greenwich Village, Boston's North End, and San Francisco's North Beach. New York coffee shops were often frequented by the Beats in the 1950's. It wasn't long before Seattle and other parts of the Pacific Northwest were developing coffee shops as part of a thriving counterculture scene. The Seattle­based Starbucks took this model and brought it into mainstream culture.

　　Although coffeehouses today continue to serve their traditional purpose as lively social hubs in many communities, they have noticeably adapted to the times. Rediscovering their purpose as centers of information exchange and communication, many coffee shops now provide their customers with internet access and newspapers. It has become extremely common to see someone sitting at a Starbucks listening to music or surfing the web on his or her laptop. Coffee stores today also maintain a fairly identifiable, yet unique aesthetic: wooden furniture and plush couches, paintings and murals drawn on walls, and soft­lighting combine to give coffee shops the cozy feeling of a home away from home.

　　Today, big business retail coffee shops are expanding quickly all over the world. Starbucks alone has stores in over 40 countries and plans to add more. Despite its popularity, Starbucks has been criticized and labeled by many as a blood­sucking corporate machine, driving smaller coffee shops out of business through unfair practices. This has even spawned an anti­corporate coffee counterculture, with those subscribing to this culture boycotting big business coffee chains. Increasingly popular coffee stores such as The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf are also giving Starbucks some stiff competition. In any case, it seems pretty clear that coffee has weaved itself into the fabric of our consumer­oriented culture.

　　32．Which of the following is the correct order of coffee spreading in history?

　　Egypt　

　　America　 the Middle East

　　④Netherlands

　　⑤Venice

　　A．

　　B．C．

　　D．

　　33．We can infer from the passage ________.

　　A．Starbucks has beaten all the competitors

　　B．there are no changes in the development of coffee culture

　　C．the taste of coffee has changed a lot

　　D．Starbucks has some effect on the development of coffee culture

　　．The famous coffeehouse “Starbucks” originally came from________.
