But the 17-vear-o1d achieved a surprising clean sweep—he was accepted to every Ivy League (常春藤)schoo1．“I am so lucky，"Roias told The Orange County Register on Saturday．“When I got all eight，it was a blessing and a curse because I had to choose．I was excited and scared and everything at the same time．”The first call came from Yale University in February．Within weeks calls，emails and letters followed from the other seven universities．Rojas also was accepted by Stanford University and two nearby schools，the University of California，Irvine，and California State University，Fullerton．He is one of four children of Raul Rojas，59，and wife，Mafia，56，who moved to Fullerton from Jalisco，Mexico，in the early 1980s．A national speech and debate champion，Rojas reasoned that if he applied to the eight Ivy League schools，he might get into one．Sal Tinajero，Rojas’speech and debate coach at Fullerton，told the newspaper that Rojas is a hardworking self-starter who thrives(茁壮成长) on competition．“His biggest motivation for speech and debate was his parents to know that their hard work meant something，”Tinajero said．After visiting several campuses，he settled on Yale，which costs $64，000 a year with room and board．He is responsible for$6，000；Y ale scholarships and federal grant money cover the rest．He’ll mostly take it easy during the summer before heading to Yale in late August．He’s considering majoring in Latin American studies and perhaps a career as a lawyer or in international affairs．24．What do we know about Fernando Rojas from Paragraph l?A．His schooling stopped in the eighth grade．B．He often did some cleaning in the schoo1．C．People were confident that he would be successful．D．His admission to famous universities was completely unexpected．25．How many universities accepted Rojas altogether?A．11．B．10．C．9．D．8．26．How do we understand what Tinajero said?A．Rojas is good at speech and debate competition．B．The hard work of his parents inspired Rojas greatly．C．Rojas’s parents knew Rojas loved them deeply．D．Rojas’s motivation was misundestood by his parents．27．Why did Rojas choose Yale at last?A．Yale is famous for Latin American studies．B．He wants to be a lawyer as his career．C．He cares more about the expense．D．Yale is responsible for all his cost．CIf your job invo1ves standing for several hours at a time，then this innovative(创新的) Archelis chair is just the product you’ve been waiting for. The strap—on wearable chair effectively enables you sit while you’re standing．Technically，Archelis isn’t really a chair．It's more like a leg brace that wraps around your buttocks and 1egs，helping you choose a stance(站姿)that’s more comfortaable than standing upright．You can lock the device at various positions to adjust the angle of you ankle and knee joints．Once you select the position of your choice，you’11 experience the relaxation of sitting without actually being seated．The device distributes the pressure over your shin and thigh，reducing overall muscle and joint fatigue.Archelis is made entirely of carbon parts，which are flexible and comfortable for use over 1ong periods of time．It does not require batteries or power too perate．It was originally developed to help surgeons rest their legs while performing long surgeries，but it is also expected to appeal to people in other professions like teaching，hospitality，or factory work．Developed by Nitto，a Japanese company that makes all kinds of model，in cooperation with Chiba university’s Center for Frontier Medical Engineering，Hiroaki Nishimura Design，and Japan Polymer Technology，the product is still in development and is expetcted to hit the market later this year．The concept of wearable chair isn’t entirely new．In fact，Swiss start—up Noonee also has a similar concept called Chairless Chair，a hydraulic(水力的)powered device that provides lower body support to people who have to stand upright for long periods of time．Archelis looks much cooler，though．28．What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about Archelis?A．What it looks like．B．How it works.C．When it is most effective．D．Why it is put into use.29．Which of the following best describes Archelis?A．F1exible and comfortable．B．New and expensiveC．Wearable and inconvenient．D．Innovative and productive30．In what aspect is Archelis similar to Chairless Chair?A．Neither of them is coo1．B．They are both operated by electricity.C．They are only developed for use in hospital.D．Thev help you relax while standing．31．What can be inferred from the text?A．Chairless Chair is more comfortable．B．The idea of Archelis is first created．C．Archelis hasn’t been put into production．D．Archelis will be practical in every field．DIt was once the comerstone of polite communication—but it seems that among today’s children letter writing is a dying art．More than a quarter of seven to 14-year-olds have not written a letter in the past year，and one in ten has never written one，according to a new survey．But the study by World Vision to mark its National Letter Writing Day found that in the previous week half of youngsters had written an e-mail or posted a quick message on a social networking site．“Handwritten letters are much more personal than electronic communication，”said child education expert Sue Palmer，author of Toxic Childhood．“If children do not write or receive letters they miss out on key developmental benefits．”“By going to the trouble of physically committing words to paper，the writer shows their investment of time and effort in a relationship．That’s why we tend to hang on to personal letters as keepsakes(纪念品)．The effort of writing is a very real one for a child．Painstakingly manoeuvring the pencil across the page，thinking of the best words to convey a message，struggling with spelling and punctuation，it's an effort worth making，because it's only through practice that we become truly literate(能读会写)—and literacy is the hallmark of human civilization．”BBC broadcaster and former headteacher，Roy Noble，said while he can understand thatthis generation of children use texts and e-mail to communicate，he believes you can’t beat an old—fashioned letter for that personal touch．“It’s easy to see why children are getting out of the habit of writing letters，but there is a certain charm that comes with a letter arriving in the post among the usual brown envelopes and circulars．”he said．“I think it is important for children to know how to set out a letter，with the correct terms for personal and professional occasions．”32．What does the study by World Vision show?A．National Letter Writing Day is coming．B．More children take up writing letters．C．Letter writing is popular with youngsters．D．The art of letter writing is fading away．33．According to Sue Palmer，__________.A．personal letters can be kept as keepsakesB．1etter writing is important for children’s developmentC．electronic communication is more personalD．1iteracy plays no role in a relationship34．What does the underlined word“manoeuvring”in Paragraph 4 mean?
