　　Part I Writing

　　Salary or Interest

　　Upon graduation, virtually all college students will confront the problem of choosing their careers. It is truly a tough choice. Students’ opinions differ greatly on this issue. Some hold that priority should be given to their interest in the job, but others take the attitude that salary is the most critical factor influencing their career choices.

　　As for myself, I prefer the latter view. A well-paid job exerts a tremendous fascination on a great number of people, with no exception to me. Although it might be impossible to measure the value of one’s job in terms of money, salary counts most when I choose my future career. In my view, our career choices largely depend on how and where we have been brought up. I come from a poor urban family and my parents are both laid-off workers. In order to finance my tuition, they have been working hard over the past four years. As the only son in my family, I have to shoulder the burden of supporting my family.

　　In short, salary is the first consideration in my choice of career.

　　3. N 根據(jù)題干中的信息詞Dihydrogen monoxide定位到第二個(gè)小標(biāo)題，由該標(biāo)題下的第二段可知，所謂的一氧化二氫其實(shí)就是H¬2O，也就是水。而關(guān)于水被用做工業(yè)溶劑的說(shuō)法是嚇唬人的，故該句表述錯(cuò)誤。

　　4. N 根據(jù)題干中的信息詞Dihydrogen monoxide定位到第二個(gè)小標(biāo)題，再由corrosion and rusting定位到該標(biāo)題下的倒數(shù)第二段，可知愛開玩笑的人還將加速腐蝕和生銹、嚴(yán)重?zé)齻�、吸入致死等其他危險(xiǎn)和一氧化二氫聯(lián)系起來(lái)，結(jié)合前文提到的一氧化二氫就是水可知，這些不過(guò)是哄弄人的說(shuō)法，故該句表述錯(cuò)誤。
