Two Traits of a Successful College Student

First-time college students don't realize the reality shock they will receive when they get to college. High school and college atmosphere are extremely different in many ways and college students face many new challenges. To get through college successfully, all first-time college students must be dedicated and independent.

Dedication is a primary part of being successful in college. Students must work hard and take action to learn at a college level. Assignments can't be left until the last minute like they might have been in high school. College students must be willing to speak up in class and ask questions when they don't understand. Dedication means setting priorities for success; dedication means putting off going out with friends and caring about producing the best work possible. Dedicated students will do their work and do it well, spending hours reading textbooks, reviewing notes, and revising essays.

However, having dedication is not the only trait college students need to survive. College students must also be independent. (Supply the missing details)_____________________________________________.

College students need to know that being independent is a skill to acquire for college success, as well as life-long success.

College is hard work. Most first-time college students will struggle with the new experience, yet by being dedicated and independent, they will thrive in the college world.

SECTION B PASSAGES

Directions: In this section, you will hear several passages. Listen to the passages carefully and then answer the questions that follow.

听力原文： Picture the most beautiful face you have ever seen. Then ask yourself what it is about that face that makes it so lovely. That question may be difficult to answer. After all, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But is it possible to explain the beauty of a human face using math？

According to many scholars throughout history, the answer could be yes. Most very attractive faces have proportions consistent with what is known as the "golden ratio." This ratio can best be understood by thinking of it as a rectangle. In a golden rectangle, the long side is 1.618 times longer than the short side. Therefore, the value of the golden ratio is equal to 1.618. The proportions of the golden rectangle are thought to reflect perfect symmetry. If we frame. a gorgeous face inside of a golden rectangle, the dimensions of each will correspond perfectly. The face is beautiful because it is symmetrical.

Amazingly, the golden ratio is found in many manifestations of beauty—not just in beautiful faces. The dimensions of the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt conform. to the golden ratio. And the famous Greek Parthenon contains many golden rectangles. Moreover, the famous fifteenth-century Italian artist, Leonardo da Vinci, deliberately used the golden ratio in his paintings. Not surprisingly, the face of da Vinci's Mona Lisa matches the golden rectangle.
