RTUGC was the first attempt to compare top research universities in four regions of Great China, namely Mainland, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.Tsinghua University in Beijing remains No.1 in the ranking. National Tsing Hua University in Taiwan overtakes National Taiwan University as the second. The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology climbs to 4th from 7th in 2013. Peking University remains in 5th place as it was in last year. Other Top 10 universities are: The University of Hong Kong, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, University of Science and Technology of China, National Chiao Tung University in Taiwan and Zhejiang University. The highest ranked university in Macau is University of Macau (54th)RTUGC provides insight into the features and relative advantages of top universities in each region. Hong Kong and Macau universities show a higher degree of internationalization. The ranking highlights the fact that Mainland universities are stronger in gross(總的) performance while Hong Kong and Taiwan universities are in the lead in per capita(人均) performance. Tsinghua University in Beijing tops the list of annual research income, and The University of Hong Kong and City University of Hong Kong take the first place on research income per academic staff.()56. We can tell from the RTUGC that _A. Tsinghua University in Beijing ranked the second place in 2013B. Taiwan has more universities listed in the top 10 than Hong KongC. four of the top ten universities in 2014 are from MainlandD. University of Macau is of a higher rank than Zhejiang University()57. Which of the following is most possibly correct according to the last paragraph?A. B. C. D. BThe latest beliefs are that the main purposes of sleep are to enable the body to rest, allowing time for repairs to take place and for tissue to be regenerated(再生). Lack of sleep, however, can compromise the immune system, cause depression and promote anxiety.For many people, lack of sleep is rarely anything of choice. Some have problems getting to sleep, others with staying asleep until the morning. Despite popular belief that sleep is one long event, research shows that, in an average night, there are five stages of sleep. In the first light stage, the heart rate and blood pressure go down and the muscles relax. In the next two stages, sleep gets progressively deeper. In stage four, usually reached after an hour, the slumber is so deep that, if awoken, the sleeper would be confused and disorientated. It is in this state that sleepwalking can occur, lasting no more than 15 minutes. In the fifth stage, the rapid eye movement (REM) stage, the eyes move constantly beneath closed lids as if the sleeper is looking at something. During this stage, the body is almost paralysed(癱瘓的). This REM stage is also the time when we dream.Sleeping patterns change with age. One theory for the agerelated change is that it is due to hormonal changes. The temperature rise occurs at daybreak in the young, but at three or four in the morning in the elderly. Age aside, it is estimated that roughly one in three people suffer some kind of sleep disturbance. Causes can be anything from pregnancy, smoking, and stress to alcohol and heart disease.Apart from selfhelp therapy such as regular exercise, there are psychological treatments, including relaxation training and therapy aimed at getting rid of presleep worries and anxieties. Medication is regarded by many as a last option and often takes the form of sleeping pills.()58. Whats the best title of this passage?A. Lack of Sleep B. Change of Sleep C. Patterns of Sleep D. Benefits of Sleep()59. Which of the following can cause peoples lack of sleep according to this passage?A. Their burden from illness and drinking. B. Their incomplete sleep stages.C. Their body temperature change with age. D. Their damaged immune system.()60. Which of the following is TRUE to the passage?A. Nobody can escape lack of sleep.B. A sleepwalker usually dreams before the sleepwalking.C. In the REM stage sleepers can see things around but cant move the body.D. Regular exercise can better help improve sleep quality than sleeping pills do.CWhen my friend went to Europe last summer, instead of snapping photographs of the Louvre or the Eiffel Tower or Stonehenge, she brought back 32 rolls of . cathedral ceilings. Ceilings. For the 10 years Ive known her I had never suspected that she was this passionate about stained glass.Still one of the best things about such pictures despite their obvious narrow appeal is that they cant help but tell us a great deal about the people who took them.So I shouldnt have been surprised when I got the roll of film back from my 5yearold sons first camping trip. I opened the envelope, naively expecting to see pictures of the nightly campfire, the sun setting over the forest, and possibly even a deer or two.Instead, I saw an offcenter picture of tennis shoes. Not even his tennis shoes, mind you, but a pair someone had lost and left in the cabin. Mystery shoes. And thats not all.As I went through the stack, I found that my son had also taken a picture of his sleeping bag, a penny he found in the gravel next to the car, a leaf, an orange sock, a closeup of his fathers ear, a burned hot dog, his thumb, a piece of gum, and many other similar things.There was barely one sign of nature in the whole stack. I couldnt help thinking that if hed wanted pictures of assorted junk, it wouldve been cheaper had he spent the weekend in our backyard.AT LEAST that is what I thought until I showed the photographs to my ceilingsnapping friend, the mother of three teenagers, who said simply, “Theres nothing wrong with these.”But of course, this is just the type of answer youd expect from someone who photographs ceiling.Then she told me about the time her daughter went to Yosemite Valley and returned with rolls of photographs of the hotel, restaurant, and gift shop. She also told me about the time her son took his camera to a Major League Baseball game and returned with 24 pictures of cloud formations.I had a feeling she was just trying to make me feel better.Then again, to a 5yearold boy, finding a penny is more exciting than seeing a squirrel. And why would he waste good film on something like, say, some endangered water buffaloes, when he could take a picture of cool tennis shoes? Or his shiny new green sleeping bag?Face it: Things like beautiful sunsets and campfires cant compare to a bag of extralarge marshmallow.So I did what any good mother would do: I marked the date on the back of the pictures and slid them into our family vacation photo album right after the five pages of ice sculptures I took last year on our cruise to the Bahamas.()61. Which of the following proverbs best displays the authors final thought?A. Every dog will have its day.B. Every man has his hobbyhorse.C. If a thing is worth doing, its worth doing well.D. You can take a horse to the water but you cannot make him drink.()62. Who might have taken a picture of the back seat of the family car in his or her trip mentioned in this passage?A. The authors friend. B. The authors son.C. The author. D. The authors friends daughter.()63. The author changed her mind on her sons picture taking because _A. her friend persuaded her to do soB. her sons pictures finally struck herC. she realized the truth by herself inspired by the surrounding examplesD. it suddenly occurred to her that she herself had also taken unique pictures before()64. What can we infer from this passage?A. Age and gender play an important role in ones vision of the world.B. The authors friend is a better mum in terms of educating children.C. The author will allow her son more freedom to choose in his future life.D. The author will take vacation pictures of different kind from her past ones.DA few years ago, in one experiment in behavioural psychology, Stanley Milgram of Yale University tested 40 subjects for their willingness to obey instructions given by a “l(fā)eader” in a situation in which the subjects might feel a personal dislike of the actions
