one reason is that its easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. “a lot of young people dont want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so its hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code.” another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. in a study conducted by levi strauss and company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale. only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative impact on productivity. supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. “suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said. “for the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.” 56. david smith refers to himself as having been “a clothes addict,” because _.a. he often wore pants and a sports shirtb. he couldnt stand a clean appearancec. he wanted his clothes to look neat all the timed. he didnt want to spend much money on clothes57. david smith wears casual clothes now, because _.a. they make him feel at ease when working b. he cannot afford to buy expensive clothes c. he looks handsome in casual clothes d. he no longer works for any company58. according to this passage, which of the following statements is true?a. company workers started to dress down about twenty years ago. b. dress-down has become an everyday phenomenon since the early 1990s. c. “dress-down friday” was first given as a favor from employers. d. many workers want to wear casual clothes to impress people.baustralia has passed regulations that will enable more international students to further their education in the country. the new measures were released by the australian department of tertiary education, skills, jobs and workplace relations in september and will take effect in mid-2012. as a result, the student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified, and the deposit (押金) required to study in australia has been reduced. language requirements for overseas students have also been eased. also, overseas students receiving a higher education in australia will be granted a working visa lasting from two to four years after graduation, as long as they meet the basic ielts requirement. this change will definitely make australia a more attractive destination for chinese students planning to study overseas, says wang lan, a consultant from education international cooperation group (eic), a beijing-based company that provides services to students wishing to study overseas. however, in the past few years, many of wangs student clients(客戶) could not start studies in australia because they did not meet the language requirements, visa processing took a long time and deposit regulations were tough. the change in policy is good news for the parents of students wishing to study in australia, wang says. a 22-year-old female student surnamed li, in beijing, who is planning to do herpostgraduate studies in australia, learned about the policy change several weeks ago. according to the previous deposit requirement for my student visa, my family was required to put down 550,000 yuan ($86,850). now we only need to prepare 410,000 yuan. this is a relief for my parents, li says. she also says that the two to four years working visa makes her feel much clearer about her study plans. i believe several years of working experience abroad will strengthen my competitiveness when i return to china, she says. gaining a competitive advantage is the major reason for chinese students to study abroad, according to the report by eic.59. whats the main idea of the passage?a. language requirement for overseas students have been eased in australia. b. australia is a most attractive place for students in china. c. more students will work in australia after their graduation. d. australia widens window of opportunity for international students. 60. which of the following is not the content of the new regulations?

a. their working experience can make them stay in australia forever. b. they can earn more money in australia. c. the working experience abroad will strengthen their competitiveness. d. they have to do so according to the new regulations.cmini book excerpts（節(jié)選）biographywhen salinger learned that a car park was to be built on the land, the middle-aged writer was shocked and quickly bought the neighboring area to protect it the townspeople never forgot the rescue and came to help their most famous neighbor. j. d. salinger: a life by kenneth slawenski (random house,$27)mystery（疑案小說）youre a smart boy. bennys death was no accident, and youre the only one who saw it happen. do you think the murderer should get away with it?
