overthephone/throughthephone/onthephone请问有什么区别
用电话 （表示一种手段）eg：i made a booking by phone/over the phone!我正在打电话! 接下来对比下over和 through 这两个介词的不同.首先,over phone 和by phone 的大概意思相近：通过电话,通过电话,但这种通过与之前的不同,through the phone 更侧重于穿过电话. 我打电话（使用电话）进行了预定再次,through the phone也表示这里先找出与其它两个不同的-- on the phone 表示通话状态,说明说话人此时正处于通话的状态,在聊电话.eg：turn down the TV,隔着电话.（做某事! i am on the phone! 把电视音量关小.谈论某内容）eg：kiss me through the phone
通过电话吻我/ 隔着电话吻我.综上所述

Our boat floated on between walls offorest. It was too thick for us to get a view of the land we were passingthrough, though we knew from the map that our river must be passing throughchains of hills from time to time. Nowhere did we find a place where we couldhave landed: although the jungle did not actually spread right down intothe river, banks of soft mud prevented us from going ashore. In any case, whatwould we have gained by landing? The country was full of snakes and otherdangerous creatures and the jungle was so thick that one would be able toadvance slowly, cutting one's way with knives the whole way. So we stayed inthe boat, hoping that when we reached the sea, a friendly fisherman would pickus up and take us to civilization.As for water, there was a choice. Wecould drink the muddy river water, or die of thirst. We drank the water. Menwho have just escaped from what appeared to be certain death lost all worriesabout such small things as diseases caused by dirty water. In fact, none of ussuffered from any illness as a result.One day we passed another village, butfortunately nobody saw us.

Are you still in a wonderful mood?Impossible!Communieating with negative people canwash out your happiness. It may not change what you think, but communicatinglong enough with them will make you feel depressed for a moment or a long time.Life brings ups and downs, but somepeople are stuck in the wrong idea that life has no happiness to offer. Theyonly feel glad when they make others feel bad. No wonder they can hardly winothers' pity or respect.When you communicate with positivepeople, your spirit stays happy and therefore more positive things areattracted. When the knife of a negative person is put in you, you have theheavy feeling that, all in all, brings you down.Sometimes we have no choice but tocommunicate with negative people. This could be a co-worker, or a relative. Inthis case, say what needs to be said as little as possible. Sometimes it feelsgood to let out your anger back to the negative person, but this is to loweryou to that same negative level and they won't feel ashamed of themselves aboutthat.Negativity often affects happinesswithout even being realized. The negative words of others at the start of theday can be attached to you throughout the rest of your day, which makes youfeel bad and steals your happiness. Life is too short to feel negative. Staypositive and avoid negativity as much as possible.31. Which of the following shows theposition where the miners were trapped?

So if you wait for people to apologize you could be waiting a(n)&& 29&&& long time.” Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean&&& 30&&& to the person who upsets you.Take the control away from your offender.

&&&& Inthe college-admissions wars, we parents are the true fighters. We’re pushingour kids to get good grades, take SAT preparatory courses and build resumes sothey can get into the college of our first choice. I’ve twice been to the wars,and as I survey the battlefield, something different is happening. We see ourkids’ college background as a prize demonstrating how well we’ve raised them.But we can’t acknowledge that our obsession(痴迷) is more aboutus than them. So we’ve created various justifications（辩解）that turn out to be half-truths, prejudices or myths. Itactually doesn’t matter much whether Aaron and Nicole go to Stanford.We have a full- we worry that there won’t be enough prizes to go around. Fearful parentsurge their children to apply to more schools than ever. What causes thehysteria(歇斯底里) is the belief that scarce elite（精英）degrees must be highly valuable. Their graduates must enjoymore success because they get a better education and develop better contacts.All seems right but mostly wrong. We haven’t found any convincing evidence thatselectivity or prestige matters. Selective schools don’t employ better instructional approaches than less selective schools. On twomeasures—professors’ feedback and the number of essay exams selective schoolsdo slightly worse.By some studies,selective schools do enhance（提高） their graduates’ lifetime earnings. The gain isreckoned at 2-4% for every 100-point increase in a school’s average SAT scores.But even this advantage is probably a statistical fluke(偶然).A well-known study examined students who got into highly selective schools andthen went elsewhere. They earned just as much as graduates from higher-statusschools.Kids count more thantheir colleges. Getting into Yale may signify intelligence, talent andambition. But it’s not the only indicator and, surprisingly, its significanceis declining. The reason: so many similar people go elsewhere. Getting intocollege is not life’s only competition. In the next competition—the job marketand graduate school—the results may change. Princeton economist Alan Kruegerstudied admissions to one top Ph.D. program. High scores on the GRE help degrees of famous universities didn’t.So, parents, take iteasy（lighten up）. The stakes (利害关系) have beenvastly exaggerated. Up to a point, we can rationalize our pushiness. America isa our kids need to adjust to that. But too much pushinesscan be destructive. The very ambition we impose on our children may get someinto Harvard but may also set them up for disappointment. One study found that,other things being equal, graduates of highly selective schools experiencedmore job dissatisfaction. They may have been so conditioned to being on topthat anything less disappoints.1. Why does the authorsay that parents are the true fighters in the college-admissions wars?&&&&&&&& A.They have the final say in which university their children are to attend.&&&&&&&& B.They know best which universities are most suitable for their children.&&&&&&&& C.They have to carry out intensive surveys of colleges before children make anapplication.&&&&&&&& D.They care more about which college their children go to than the childrenthemselves.2. Why do parents urgetheir children to apply to more schools than ever?&&&&&&&& A.They want to increase their children’s chances of entering a prestigiouscollege.&&&&&&&& B.They hope their children can enter a university that offers attractivescholarships.&&&&&&&& C.Their children will have a wider choice of which college to go to.&&&&&&&& D.Elite universities now enroll fewer student than they used to.3.

Passage six(Dropouts for Ph. D. s)
& Educators are seriously concerned about the high rate of dropouts among the doctor of philosophy candidates and the consequent loss of talent to a nation in need of Ph. D. s. Some have placed the dropouts loss as high as 50 percent. The extent of the loss was, however, largely a matter of expert guessing. Last week a well-rounded study was published. It was published. It was based on 22,000 questionnaires sent to former graduate students who were enrolled in 24 universities and it seemed to show many past fears to be groundless.
& The dropouts rate was found to be 31 per cent, and in most cases the dropouts, while not completing the Ph. D. requirement, went on to productive work. They are not only doing well financially, but, according to the report, are not far below the income levels of those who went on to complete their doctorates.
& Discussing the study last week, Dr. Tucker said the project was initiated ‘because of the concern frequently expressed by graduate faculties and administrators that some of the individuals who dropped out of Ph. D. programs were capable of competing the requirement for the degree. Attrition at the Ph. D. level is also thought to be a waste of precious faculty time and a drain on university resources already being used to capacity. Some people expressed the opinion that the shortage of highly trained specialists and college teachers could be reduced by persuading the dropouts to return to graduate schools to complete the Ph. D.’
& “The results of our research” Dr. Tucker concluded, “did not support these opinions.”
Lack of motivation was the principal reason for dropping out.
Most dropouts went as far in their doctoral program as was consistent with their levels of ability or their specialities.
Most dropouts are now engaged in work consistent with their education and motivation.
& Nearly 75 per cent of the dropouts said there was no academic reason for their decision, but those who mentioned academic reason cited failure to pass the qualifying examination, uncompleted research and failure to pass language exams. Among the single most important personal reasons identified by dropouts for non-completion of their Ph. D. program, lack of finances was marked by 19 per cent.
& As an indication of how well the dropouts were doing, a chart showed 2% in humanities were receiving $ 20,000 and more annually while none of the Ph. D. ‘s with that background reached this figure. The Ph. D. ‘s shone in the $ 7,500 to $ 15,000 bracket with 78% at that level against 50% for the dropouts. This may also be an indication of the fact that top salaries in the academic fields, where Ph. D. ‘s tend to rise to the highest salaries, are still lagging behind other fields.
& As to the possibility of getting dropouts back on campus, the outlook was glum. The main condition which would have to prevail for at least 25 % of the dropouts who might consider returning to graduate school would be to guarantee that they would retain their present level of income and in some cases their present job.
1.The author states that many educators feel that
A.steps should be taken to get the dropouts back to campus.
B.the fropouts should return to a lower quality school to continue their study.
C.the Ph. D. holder is generally a better adjusted person than the dropout.
D.The high dropouts rate is largely attributable to the lack of stimulation on the part of faculty members.
2.Research has shown that
A.Dropouts are substantially below Ph. D. ‘s in financial attainment.
B.the incentive factor is a minor one in regard to pursuing Ph. D. studies.
C.The Ph. D. candidate is likely to change his field of specialization if he drops out.
D.about one-third of those who start Ph. D. work do not complete the work to earn the degree.
3.Meeting foreign language requirements for the Ph. D.
