1、根據材料，回答問題。
Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.
One of the most interesting paradoxes in America today is that Harvard University, the oldest institution of higher learning in the United States, is now engaged in a serious debate about what a university should be, and whether it is measuring up (符合標準).
Like the Roman Catholic Church and other ancient institutions, it is asking--still in private rather than in public--whether its past assumptions about faculty, authority, admissions, courses of study, are really relevant to the problems of our society.
Should Harvard--or any other university--be an intellectual sanctuary, apart from the political and social revolution of the age, or should it be a laboratory for experimentation with these political and social revolutions; or even an engine of the revolution? This is what is being discussed privately in the big clapboard ( 楔形板) houses of faculty members around the Harvard Yard.
The issue was defined by Walter Lippmann, a distinguished Harvard graduate, many years ago.
"If the universities are to do their work," he said, "they must be independent and they must be disinterested... They are places to which men can turn for unbiased judgments. Obviously, the moment the universities fall under political control, or under the control of private interests, or the moment they themselves take a hand in politics and the leadership of government, their value as independent and disinterested sources of judgment is impaired..."
This is part of the argument that is going on at Harvard today. Another part is the argument of the militant and even many moderated students: that a university is the keeper of our ideals and morals, and should not be "disinterested" but activist in bringing the Nation's ideals and actions together.
Harvard's men of today seem more troubled and less sure about personal, political and academic purpose than they did at the beginning. They are not even clear about how they should debate and resolve their problems, but they are struggling with them privately, and how they come out is bound to influence American university and
political life in the 21st century.

簡答題
4、裸婚(naked mar r iage)是指不買房、不買車、不辦婚禮甚至沒有婚戒而直接領證結婚的一種簡樸的結婚方式。由于生活壓力以及現代人越來越強調婚姻的“自由”和“獨立”，  “婚禮”在年輕一代的婚姻中被重視的程度日益削弱，因而“裸婚”也就成為“80后”新潮的結婚方式。熱衷于“裸婚”的年輕一代一般年齡在20歲到35歲之間。他們大多思想前衛，其中也不乏高學歷、高收入的都市白領。


5、宣紙是一種中外聞名的名貴紙張。由于這種紙的出產地在安徽的宣城附近，所以被人們稱為“宣紙”。宣紙的生產已經有一千五百多年的歷史了。這種紙潔白、細密(fi Fie-grained)、均勻、柔軟，能表現出中國書法和繪畫的特點。由于宣紙不容易破碎、變色，所以，很多中國古代的字畫經過了幾百年、上千年，仍然保存得完好無缺。


6、踢毽子(Kicking shuttIecock)是中國民間傳統的體育健身運動，歷史悠久。踢毽子是一項簡便的健身運動，它不需要任何專門的場地和設備。這項運動老幼皆宜。不僅有助于培養人的靈敏性和協調性，而且有助于身體的全面發展。增強健康。據史料記載。宋代集市上就有專賣毽子的店鋪，明清時開始有正式的踢毽子比賽。踢毽子早流行于中國的青少年中，不過現在玩的反而是成人居多。


7、《舌尖上的中國》是一部美食類紀錄片，從2011年3月開始大規模拍攝。這部紀錄片開播不久，便獲得廣泛的熱議和追捧。絕大多數美食節目著重強調的是味覺，告訴大家怎么做美食，怎樣使食物更加美味。而《舌尖上的中國》不僅讓海內外觀眾領略中華美食之美，而且還展示了普通中國人的人生百昧(varieties of tastes in |．fe)。通過這部紀錄片，中國的文化傳統和社會變遷得以展現。

重點推出亞洲當代攝影作品。


9、每年農歷的正月十五日，春節剛過，迎來的就是中國的傳統節日——元宵節(Lantern Festi vaI)。按中國民間的傳統，在這天皓月高懸的夜晚，人們要點起彩燈萬盞，以示慶賀。民間過元宵節還有吃元宵的習俗。元宵由糯米制成，或實心，或帶餡。元宵也被稱作湯圓(G| utinous Rice Ba||s，or Gatheri ng Rice Ba||s)，象征全家人團團圓圓，和睦幸福，人們也以此懷念離別的親人，寄托了對未來生活的美好愿望。
