22、 Lucy Hobbs came to the University of Wisconsin already knowing she wanted to study nursing so she could make a positive difference in the lives of others. Once she was on campus, she realized she could make an even greater impact on her future patients by adding a second major (专业), one in Spanish.
“I was drawn to nursing because I want a career that will be fulfilling and will help me serve others,” says Hobbs. “I chose to add a major in Spanish because I love learning about other cultures, and I want to do something for those easily ignored populations in my nursing career.”
In addition to her nursing and Spanish curriculum, Hobbs found multiple interesting ways to bring her majors together, including things like research and study abroad. Hobbs was part of a research project that is documenting the experiences of Spanish-speaking populations in western Wisconsin during Covid-19. The research team included students and teachers in languages, history and nursing.
In addition to her research, studying abroad was also helpful. She spent part of the spring 2020 semester studying in Costa Rica. “This was my first time outside of the U.S.and I learned so much about Costa Rican culture,” Hobbs says.
While she found many opportunities within her majors, Hobbs also had meaningful experiences on campus that were outside of nursing and Spanish. For example, she worked as a resident assistant in the dorms and is a member of the University Honors Program.
“All these experiences helped me to enhance my time on campus by giving me opportunities to meet amazing and inspiring individuals who I believe will remain lifetime friends,”
Hobbs says, “All these experiences also helped to shape how I think about the future.” After she graduates in May, Hobbs will begin her nursing career working in the emergency room at UW Health's University Hospital in Madison.
【1】What did Hobbs do after she entered university?
A.She realized her interest in nursing.
B.She decided to learn more besides her major.
C.She made a difference in others' lives.
D.She influenced her future patients greatly.
【2】Why did Hobbs add a major in Spanish?
A.To help others with their Spanish.
B.To do research in various cultures.
C.To receive further education in Spain.
D.To provide nursing care for less focused people.
【3】What is helpful in Hobbs's achieving her goals?
A.Going abroad to change her life.
B.Beginning her nursing career early.
C.Developing as many hobbies as she could.
D.Getting different experiences besides her study.
【4】Which of the following best describes Hobbs?
A.Humorous.

23、阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
In the US and Britain, the slogan around colleges was “Save water. Shower with a friend.” Now, Wuhan University has come up with another system for the campus bathhouse. It charges students for the amount of time in a shower. Before entering the bathhouse, students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower with cash or their student ID card. The clock starts ticking the minute the tape is turned on. It pauses when a button is pressed for soap. An integrated circuit (IC) card reader at each tap shows the time. No money, no water. The benefits of the new system can be seen with the old system, which charged 1 Yuan for each person regardless of time in the shower. The university used about 320 tons of water daily under the old system, but only 160 tons now.
Many students use the new system but opinions on it are divided. Some students say it is bad because bathing had become a sort of race. Many people using it for the first time are not sure how long they need to shower. Some might be embarrassed if their time is up and they’re still covered in soap. They have to ask the bathhouse worker to help them buy extra time.
“It’s a flaw in the system that you can not buy extra time on the ID card,” said Ren, a freshman in Wuhan University. The university is also considering some students’ suggestions that they be allowed to pay after they’ve finished the shower. Not surprisingly, some are complaining about losing the hour shower. But many students say the move helps them develop a water-saving sense.
Without the time limits, most students tended to shower for 30 to an hour in the bathhouse.
Some even used the hot water to wash their clothes. “In my experience, 10—20 minutes is enough,” said Dai Zhihua, a third-year student who usually takes 8 minutes.
A similar system has been installed in other universities. Shanghai Normal University introduced it at its Fengxiang Campus in September. The bathing fee there is 0.2 Yuan per minute. One male student responded by setting a record with a two-minute shower.
【1】According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A. Students buy the time of their showers.
B. The clock times the student’s bathing except when the bather pauses for soap.
C. If money runs out, there will be no water.
D. Having finished bathing, the student has to pay for it.
【2】The underline word “flaw” (Paragraph 3) most probably means __________.
A. fault B. advantage
C. pity D. perfection
【3】Since the new system has performed, __________ of water can be saved.
A. a quarter B. one third
C. one half D.two thirds
【4】It can be inferred from the passage that __________.
A. the new operation can raise students’ environmental awareness
B. the new operation can solve the water crisis
C. a similar operation has been set in other universities
D. the university has saved a lot of water by using the new system
【5】In which column can you find this passage?
A. Culture. B. Society.
C. Campus Life. D. Lifestyle.
24、 Five years ago, as a new nurse working at night-time at Norwalk Hospital in Connecticut, Kelly Depanfills stopped to chat with one of her favorite patients, a middle-aged man with leukemia, a type of blood disease. He was in the hospital for treatment, but what he really hoped for was a bone marrow (骨髓) transplant. He talked about “Be The Match”, a foundation that connects patients with donors. “It made me want to see if I matched with anyone,” Depanfills says. “He said, ‘Well, get on there!’”
Depanfills was shocked at how simple “getting on there” turned out to be: all she had to do was sign up and swab (拭抹) her cheek. She just didn’t imagine she’d get the chance so quickly. Not long after being swabbed, Depanfills got a call about a possible recipient (接受者): a 6-month-old boy born without an immune system — meaning one cold could become life-threatening. Within six months, she was checked in to the hospital as his no-named transplant donor.
After the operation, she was told the recovery time was 20 days and could include pain and tiredness, but she had only some soreness. “Honestly, the next day, I went out shopping,” she says. The boy who received her bone marrow cells is now recovering well and able to run around the playground like other kids.
Depanfills was so energized by the experience that she started volunteering at registry events, and last year she started her own at Norwalk Hospital. “One couple drove 45 minutes just to get swabbed,” she says. In a single day, about 50 hoping to be donors signed up. Every year there are 20,000 people who might benefit from a bone marrow transplant. “When you say such things, people get nervous,” Depanfills says. “But I want everyone to know how easy giving this gift can be.”
