     Preparing for Your Session
     ?Make an appointment （link is external） with your college's Writing Tutor.
     ?Carefully read the confirmation email，as each tutor offers slightly different instructions about preparing for appointments.
     What to Expect
     Many tutors will read your paper in advance，although a few prefer that you do that work together.Either way，most sessions will start with the tutor asking you what you hope to accomplish，which might include questions about the assignment or a discussion of your experience writing similar papers.The tutor will then discuss the most important areas for revision.Tutors won't tell you exactly what to do to fix your essay，but they will help you figure out strategies for revision and prompt you to take notes on the suggestions that arise.Often the most important changes involve the primary claims of the paper or the structure of your argument.
     Writing Tutors can also help you with grammar and style，although not by proof reading your whole essay；instead，the two of you might edit a paragraph together，looking for suggestions that you can then incorporate into the rest of your paper.
     If you have worked with the same tutor before，there will be more time to discuss general trends in your writing，or to work quickly through basic concerns and move on to specific needs of the current paper.One benefit of the Residential College Writing Tutors is the opportunity to work over several years with someone who knows your writing well.

• 2．Craig grew up on "a gentleman's farm" in Colorado with horses，cows，and chickens.When he was 18，Craig was already running some of the businesses.He planned to earn a business degree in college，but on a fateful trip to Florida，he visited a friend who worked as a grounds-keeper at a zoo. "I just wanted to say hi，but he showed me around，and in the back，I saw lions and tigers in these cages that were so small that you wouldn't want to keep a dog in them，" he says.The animals were surplus（過(guò)剩）and would likely be euthanized（使安樂(lè)死）.
     When a sad Craig returned to Colorado，he called the Denver Zoo about taking the animals，but Denver's zookeepers also had a surplus.Then it occurred to him：Perhaps he could bring the animals to the family farm.He was only 19，but he studied local regulations and formed a nonprofit organization.He next wrote zoos nationwide offering to help if they planned to euthanize animals.
     After about five years，he bought a second，larger property before moving to the shelter's current location northeast of Denver.The goal，he says，is to provide the animals with plentiful space and to treat them with dignity and respect. "We have prides of lions that live together，just like they would in the wild，" he says. "They're wandering free and playing and doing what they want.We just give them medical care and food."
     Craig opened the shelter to visitors in 2002.Although he was originally unwilling，Craig now sees it as an opportunity to educate more people. "We want the public to know，if they hear about some guy driving around in his Ferrari with a tiger or a lion，they should say，What are you doing？That animal is going to end up dead or in some dirty roadside zoo." The shelter receives 150，000 guests a year.Given his goal of treating the animals with respect-the shelter prohibits feeding and hands-on human contact -visitors observe the animals from a 30-foot-high，1.5-mile-long elevated walkway.
  
  （1）What made Craig decide to help animals？

  
  A．The need to run his farm.
  B．The influence from his friend.
  C．The concern for animals to be euthanized.
  D．The plan to earn a business degree from a college.
  （2）Why did Craig pay for a larger property？

  
  A．To draw visitors.
  B．To play with animals.
  C．To live a comfortable life.
  D．To offer animals more space.
  （3）How do visitors observe the animals in the shelter？

  
  A．By riding a car.
  B．By taking an elevator.
  C．Through contact with animals.
  D．From the passage above the ground.
  （4）Which of the following best describes Craig's work in the animal shelter？

  
  A．Admirable.
  B．Well-paid.
  C．Boring.
  D．Appealing.

• 3．The federal school lunch program for 30 million low-income children was created more than half a century ago to combat malnutrition（營(yíng)養(yǎng)不良）.A breakfast program was added during the -1960s，and both attempted to improve the nutritional value of food served at school.
     More must be done to fight the childhood obesity epidemic（流行的），which has caused a frightening peak in weight-related disorders like diabetes，high-blood pressure and heart disease among young people.The place to start is schools，where junk food sold outside the federal meals program—through snack bars and vending machines—has pretty much canceled out the benefits of all those efforts.
     Federal rules that govern the sales of these harmful foods at school are limited and have not been updated for nearly 40 years.Until new regulations are written，children who are served healthy meals in the school cafeteria will continue to buy candy drinks and high sodium（鈉） snacks elsewhere in school.
     Many states' school districts have taken positive steps，but others are likely to resist，especially districts that sell junk food to finance athletic program extracurricular activities，and even copier expenses.
     Those districts should take note of a study released in 2009 in West Virginia showing that the budgetary costs of switching from sodas to healthy drinks such as fruit juice，milk，and water were very little.Even if the switch costs money，so be it.The school should not be trading their students' health to buy office supplies.
     Over the last 50 years，the obesity rates for adolescents have tripled.Unless there is decisive action，weight and inactivity-related disorders will bother a steady larger proportion of the work force and replace smoking as the leading cause of premature death.
  
  （1）According to this passage，

  are to blame for the childhood obesity.
  A．weight-related disorders
  B．high calorie snacks
  C．parents' bad habits
  D．unhealthy lunches and breakfast
  （2）Which is the main idea of Paragraph 3？

  
  A．Federal governments deserve high praise for their school lunch program.
  B．New regulations are badly in need of updating.
  C．Children should be forbidden to buy snacks in school.
  D．Federal rules encourage snacks outside the school program
  （3）The passage is concerned mainly with

  .
  A．Malnutrition in low-income children
  B．The federal school lunch program
  C．obesity at school
  D．the nutritional value of food served at school
  （4）The tone of the passage is

  .
  A．negative
  B．indifferent
  C．ironic
  D．positive

• 9．閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開(kāi)頭語(yǔ)續(xù)寫(xiě)兩段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
  A Simple Thank I have been in the teaching profession more than thirty years，and one of the best teachers I have ever known was Mr.Rowe.I was lucky enough to co-teach fourth grade with him.
      Mr.Rowe had infinite patience and understanding and I learned so much from watching him.He could perform miracles，like the one her performed with Steven，one of the unhappiest kids I ever saw.Steven couldn't stand school.He didn't like being picked last for kickball.He didn't like the kids who raised their hands and knew all the answers，and most importantly，he didn't like himself.
      The first day he walked into Mr.Rowe's classroom，he ignored the other students，looking angry and annoyed，and slid into his chair，knocking a couple of textbook onto the floor.
      Mr.Rowe walked over to him and touched Steven's shoulder，but Steven pulled away.Nevertheless，Mr.Rowe welcomed him： "Hi，Steven.I'm happy you are in my class.We are gonna have a great year." Steven looked around the room as if Mr.Rowe must be mistaken.No teacher in his right mind would want Steven to be part of his classroom.
      So，while Mr.Rowe seemed cheerful and relaxed that day of school，it seemed like Steven was angry and confused.
      That day after classes，Mr.Rowe chose Steven to pitch the kickball during the break. "Hey，Steven，" Mr.Rowe commented， "You are good at pitching.Let me show you my secret trick." Mr.Rowe taught Steven one of the tricks that not a single kid could perform.Steven learned fast and did quite well!Everyone cheered for him!
      After the kickball，Steven sat as closer to Mr.Rowe in classes as he could.When a question was asked，Steven lit up；he knew the answer!He raised his hands.When he answered the question，his voice shook.However，he got the answer right!He said，with Mr.Rowe，his days of the fourth grade promised wonderful.
      That is not to say that every day went smoothly，but it was evident that Steven grew to love Mr.Rowe more and more with each passing day.
  注意：
  1.所續(xù)寫(xiě)短文的詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
  2.續(xù)寫(xiě)部分分為兩段，每段的開(kāi)頭語(yǔ)已為你寫(xiě)好。
      Paragraph 1：
      Time passed quickly that year，and before we all knew it，it was the last day of school._______
      Paragraph 2：
      Many years later，Mr.Rowe and I were surprised when a handsome young man walked into our classroom，dressed in the Marine Corps （海軍） uniform._______
