12．B。make的动作发生在left之前，故用having made it clear...作manager的定语，相当于一个非限制性定语从句；如果A项改成who had made也正确。

13．B。quite a few“许多”，修饰可数名词复数。

14．C。make use of是常用短语，意为“利用”。在此用的是被动语态，把use提前用作主语了。

15．C

A

Most people buy a lot of gifts just before Christmas. But some people think we buy too much. They have started a special day called Buy Nothing Day. They don’t want anyone to go shopping on that day.

Buy Nothing Day is November 29. It’s 25 days before Christmas. It’s after Thanksgiving and often the first day of Christmas shopping. At this time, we see ads in Newspapers and on TV telling us to “buy, buy, buy！”

The idea for Buy Nothing Day started in Vancouver, British Columbia. Now people all over the world celebrate Buy Nothing Day. In California, parents and children get together to read stories, sing songs, and paint pictures. The children talk about why they don’t need a lot of toys. This year, in Manchester, England, people dressed up in costumes to tell people that we buy too much.

In Albuquerque, New Mexico, high school students wanted to tell other students about Buy Nothing Day. They organized a spaghetti dinner to give people information about Buy Nothing Day. They asked restaurants in the neighbourhood to donate the food. They made posters and talked to other students about i t. The dinner was a big success, and many students agreed not to buy anything on November 29. The students at high school liked the idea of this new tradition. Next year, they want to have another dinner to tell more people about Buy Nothing Day!

1．Which of the following is NOT the day for people to celebrate Buy Nothing Day?

A. November 29.

B. 25 days before Christmas.

C. After Thanksgiving.

D. The first day after Christmas.

2．When do people usually have a Christmas rush?

A. Before Thanksgiving.

B. On Christmas.

C. Before Christmas.

D. Anytime.

3．How do people celebrate Buy Nothing Day?

A. In California, parents and children get together to play games.

B. In England, people celebrated by performing plays.[来源:学&科&网Z&X&X&K]

C. In Mexico, high school students dressed up.

D. They bought nothing and persuaded others not to.

4．What did the students do in New Mexico for the day?

A. They donated the food of their own.

D. They organized a luxurious dinner.

B

When your parents advise you to “get an education” in order to raise your income, they tell you only half the truth. What they really mean is to get just enough education to provide manpower for your society, but not so much that you prove an embarrassment(尴尬) to your society.

Get a high school diploma, at least. Without that, you will be occupationally dead unless your name happens to be George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison or Albert Einstein, and you can successfully dropout in primary school.

Get a college degree, if possible. With a B．A., you are on the launching pad(发射台). But now you have to put on the brakes(刹车). If you go for a master’s degree, make sure it is an M．B.A.

Do you know, for instance, that long－distance truck drivers earn more per year than full professors? Yes, the average 1977 salary for those truckers was $24,000 while the full professors managed to earn just $23,030.

A PhD is the highest degree you can get. Except for a few specialized fields such as physics or chemistry where the degree can quickly be turned to indust rial or commercial purposes, if you work for such a degree in any other field, you will face a dark future. There are more PhDs unemployed or underemployed in the country than any other part of the world.

If you become a PhD in English or history or anthropology or political science or languages or－worst of all－in philosophy, you run the risk of becoming over－educated for our national demands. Not for our needs, mind you, but for our demands.

Thousands of PhDs are selling shoes, driving cars, waiting on tables, and endlessly filling out applications month after month. They may also take a job in some high school or backwater college that pays much less than the street cleaner earns.

You can equate the level of income with the level of education only so far. Far e nough, that is, to make you useful to the total value of national product, but not so far that nobody can turn much of a profit on you.

5．According to the writer, what the society expects of education is to turn out people who ______.

A. will not be a shame to society

B. will become loyal citizens

C. can take care of themselves

D. can meet the nation’s needs

6．Many PhDs are out of work because ______.

A. they are improperly educated in schools

B. they are of little commercial value to their society

C. there are fewer jobs in high schools and colleges

D. they prefer easier jobs that make more money

7．According to the passage, ______ degree can quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes.

A. philosophy

B. chemistry

C. history

D. anthropology[来源:学科网ZXXK]

8．Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?

A. Bernard Shaw finished high school, but Edison didn’t.

B. The higher your education level is, the more money you will earn.

C. One must think carefully before working for a master degree.

D. The more you are educated, the more you’ll be fit for society’s demands.
