If you are interested in becoming a registered nurse， you are most likely aware that there are certain qualifications to become one．
Knowing the educational requirements to be a registered nurse is the first step you   will need to take in your journey to become a RN． You will need to complete a prescribed program of study．The education that the promising registered nurse chooses will depend on if he or she is interested in getting further education．
One of the most getting forms of education for registered nurses is an associate degree in nursing which takes about two years to complete． Other RN candidates may choose a hospital diploma program where they take 30 to 60 hours worth of science classes and then take many more hours of classes which are heavily focused on nursing．The diploma program usually takes a minimum of three years． A diploma program meets the basic educational requirements to be a registered nurse．
Another choice is for the promising RN to get a Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing    from a university．Once a BSN degree is earned，it gives the person the opportunity to get     higher education opportunities in his or her field such as a Master’s Degree or a PhD．
The registered nurse educational requirements can vary from state to state in America     as each state has its own laws and policies that govern the nursing profession．However，all     registered nurses must take some sort of licensing exam in order to become legally able to     practice in the registered nursing profession．
While 2 to 3 years of training is required，it is possible to make a good living from the salary that you can earn as a registered nurse．But be aware that the profession can be     stressful．Some of the most stressful nursing positions are those in hospitals，particularly in     the emergency rooms．Some less stressful jobs may include working in private practice where     the hours will not be as long．

A．the most promising profession in the future

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中(A、B、c和D)00，选出最佳选项，并在答卡上将该项涂黑。
Ryan and Lowry had been friends since high school， but it wasn’t until after college
that they hit on the idea of a home—care-products company．“We were shocked to learn how toxic cleaning products were，” says Ryan． Why couldn’t they create green products that would be just as environmentally pure as Aveda’s skin—and—hair—care lines?
When Ryan’s mom heard about the plan，she stared at him blankly: “I’ve never even seen you clean your room!” Not discouraged，Lowry experimented with nontoxic ways to clean． while Ryan focused on marketing． In February 2001，they mixed their first four cleaning sprays and convinced the managers of 20 grocers to try them· Once they had their approval，they tapped friends and family and pooled their savings to come up with $90，000 in seed money．
From the start，“Go big or go home’’was their mantra(口头禅)．Their first financing— that $l million—was due to be signed on September 11, 2001. By the time they got it, two months later，says Ryan, "we had$16 in the bank and personally owed$300，000·”
Seeking a national retailer(零售商)proved just as troublesome．The friends set their sights on Target，known for its trendy，affordable goods．“But Target didn’t like the product or the brand，”recalled Ryan．“We thought the deal was dead，but then a new buyer saw that even though we weren’t selling big volumes, we were profitable, just on a smaller scale．”They won over Target．
Consumers were hooked on the natural things and wonderful fragrance. Today，the partners sell 130 products in more than 8,000 stores，and taxes are over$100 million. Such rapid growth has at times stressed the men’s friendship． “Eric and I agree on ‘what’ but never on‘how，’” says Lowry． “Although we are willing to challenge each other，we come up with interesting and smarter solutions．There’s little fire and ice between us·
56．The underlined word“toxic”in Paragraph 1 most probably means——·

D．$1 million was not enough as their seed money

Taste is such a subjective matter that we don’t usually conduct preference tests for food. The most you can say about anyone’s preference is that it’s one person’s opinion. But because the two big cola companies—Coca-Cola and Pepsi Cola—are marketed so aggressively, we’ve wondered how big a role taste preference actually plays in brand loyalty. We set up a taste test that challenged people who identified themselves as either Coca-cola or Pepsi fans: Find your brand in a blind tasting.
We invited staff volunteers who had a strong liking for either Coca-Cola Classic or Pepsi, Diet Coke, or Diet Pepsi. These were people who thought they’d have no trouble telling their brand from the other brand.
We eventually located 19 regular cola drinkers and 27 diet cola drinkers. Then we fed them with four unidentified samples of cola one at a time, regular colas for the one group, diet versions for the other. We asked them to tell us whether each sample was Coke or Pepsi; then we analyzed the records statistically to compare the participants’ choices with what mere guesswork could have accomplished.
Getting all four samples right was a tough test, but not too tough, we thought, for people who believed they could recognize their brand. In the end, only 7 out of 19 regular cola drinkers correctly identified their brand of choice in all four trials. The diet-cola drinkers did a little worse—only 7 out of 27 identified all four samples correctly.
Both groups did better than chance would predict, but nearly half the participants in each group made the wrong choice two or more times. Two people got all four samples wrong. Overall, half the participants did about as well on the last round of tasting as on the first, so tiredness, or taste burnout, was not a factor. Our preference test results suggest that only a few Pepsi participants and Coke fans may really be able to tell their favorite brand by taste and price.
71. According to the passage the preference test was conducted in order to ________.
A. show that a person’s opinion about taste is mere guesswork
B. compare the ability of the participants in choosing their drinks
C. find out the role taste preference plays in a person’s drinking

72. The statistics recorded in the preference tests show that________.
A. there is not much difference in taste between Coca-Cola and Pepsi
B. few people had trouble telling Coca-Cola from Pepsi
C. people’s tastes differ from one another
D. Coca-Cola and Pepsi are people’s two most favorite drinks
73. It is implied in the first paragraph that________.
A. the competition between the two colas is very strong
B. blind tasting is necessary for identifying fans
C. the purpose of taste test is to promote the sale of colas
D. the improvement of quality is the chief concern of the two cola companies
74. The underlined word “burnout” here refers to the state of________.
A. being seriously burnt in the skin
B. being badly damaged by fire
C. being unable to burn for lack of fuel
D. being unable to function because of too much use
75. The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to________.
A. emphasize that taste and price are closely related to each other
B. recommend that blind tasting be introduced in the quality control of colas
C. show that taste preference is highly subjective
D. argue that taste testing is an important marketing strategy
