All of them provide a two-year pre-university education for students aged between 13 and 19. The academic curriculum in these final two years of secondary school is the IBDP. There are two main ways that you can apply to join the program:

【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段第一句话“United World Colleges(UWC)is a global education movement.(UWC是一项全球教育运动)”以及第二句话“All of them provide a two-year pre-
university education for students aged between 13 and 19.(他们都为13岁至19岁的学生提供为期两年的大学预科教育。)”可知,联合世界学院为青少年提供预科课程。C项“它为青少年学生提供大学预科课程”符合题意。故选C项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段第一句话“It is designed for candidates who would like to apply nine to twelve months before the beginning of the school year, which usually begins in August.(它专门为希望在学年开始前九个月至十二个月申请的候选人设计,学年通常在八月份开始。)”可知,最迟在2022年8月开学,往前推九个月,即2021年11月提交申请。如果艾米丽计划在2023学年在UWC学习IBDP,她必须在2022年12月之前通过GSP申请。故选C项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据表格第一行“When are positions offered to successful applicants?”可知,National committee selections是January-April 2023,而UWC Global Selection Program是
Within two weeks of attending a Global Selection Weekend;根据表格第三行“Are scholarships available?(有奖学金吗?)”可知,National committee selections是65% of students(based on their needs and financial assessment ),而UWC Global Selection Program是No;根据表格第四行“Am I able to apply for a particular UWC school or college?(我可以申请特定的UWC学校吗?)”可知,National committee selections是No(applicants may ,however, list their preferences),UWC Global Selection Program是Yes(most applicants choose at least four campuses)。综上,学习IBDP的两条申请途径有以上三点不同。故选D项。

In Macau’s Coloane Village, the delicious smell of butter gently wafts through the air,attracting customers into a small,unassuming(不张扬的)shop. It is Lord Stow’s Bakery, famed for its Portuguese egg tarts.They have a flaky(酥脆的)texture,while the custard(牛奶蛋糊)is not too sweet.
The bakery was started by Andrew Stow 32 years ago.Originally from Essex in eastern Eng
land,Andrew worked for British drugstore chain Boots as an industrial pharmacist(工业药剂师)He moved to Macau in 1979 to work for Anglo French Laboratories.When the company left a few years later,Andrew decided to stay and set up his own business selling health foods,which was of course 20 years ahead of its time.
The business did not do well. To make ends meet, Andrew took a side job managing Alfonso’s Restaurant at the Hyatt Regency Hotel. He got the name “Lord Stow” from his Portuguese friends, who laughed at him for lording it over them.
