Many people in high school cannot wait to go to college and leave their hometown behind. Questions arise, though, when it comes to all of the decisions involved in choosing a college. One of the first considerations may be finance. State and public colleges are often the least expensive. Often, though, the better colleges are private and more expensive. It is sad when gifted students cannot attend a college of their choice just for financial reasons. Another major factor is location. Whether the college is in a small town or large city can have a major impact on its activities. A water lover probably will be more comfortable spending four years near an ocean or a lake. Those who cannot tolerate heat will probably be more comfortable at a northern college. Distance from home may also come into consideration. If family is a top priority, that person should stay close to home; on the other hand, if independence is desired, a campus farther from home would be more appropriate. School size also plays a major role in the decision process. If you want to get to know your teachers, a small college is suitable. For those of you who consider yourself a “ people person” and want a wide range of activities, a large college is more fitting. Your area of interest is another factor to consider in the decision-making process if you want to get the most from your education. The whole point of college is to learn what is of interest to you. Crucially(至关重要地), one must take into consideration the colleges by which you can realistically be accepted. An Ivy League school for an average student would probably not be a good match. Similarly, an average school for an above-average student would not work well. The college should provide enough of a challenge for the student to work hard. Although there may not be the perfect college out there, there probably will be one that is close. Those who cannot find a suitable college are probably not looking hard enough. 21.When it comes to going to college the author thinks . A.financial situation is the first to consider B.students are unwilling to leave their home C.students will become homesick D.students are eager to attend their ideal university 22.What is the main idea of the third paragraph? A.Students can be independent at college. B.A long distance will make students upset. C.The location of the college is a main factor. DThe climate must be taken into consideration. 23.What does the underlined part “ people person” in the passage mean? A.A person of great capacity. B. A very particular person. C. A very sociable person. D. A person of great importance. 24.Which is the most important factor when choosing a college? A. The location of a college. B. The examination result. C. School size. D. The coming challenges.

Generations of children who sat through endless lessons of “chalk and talk” in front of a bossy teacher can take some relief. But the “chalk and talk” method helped them achieve better exam results. Modern classroom techniques may make school days a good deal happier, but satisfaction is not the road to success in examinations, according to university researchers. Their three-year study, monitoring the progress of 2000 teenagers, tried to measure the influence of the “boredom factor” in 17 selected schools in the north of England. The researchers also found that the old-fashioned approach of teachers ordering pupils about is still alive and producing results. Their conclusions were welcomed yesterday by educationists who were worried by the shift to less formal lessons. The pupils in the latest study were asked to award teachers marks to measure how frequently they followed or ignored today’s fashion for “child-centered” education. A five-point scale was given to spot the teachers who always told them what they should know and what to write down. “It was significant and not anything you would get by chance or accident. Certainly, when you compare the pupils’ interest and attitude to school, there is a quite definite and highly significant difference,” one of the researchers said. But the rankings were turned upside down when the team of four researchers looked at how the children did in examination. The sort of methods now frowned upon (不赞同) actually improve the final grades. The researchers said, “There is nothing wrong with old-fashioned, didactic(说教性的) teaching in the fight place, even if it isn’t the flavor at the moment.” However, they insisted the best teachers had always mixed the two techniques to match the needs of pupils, although certain examinations forced some to concentrate more on dictation and learning by rote(死记硬背). 25. University researchers have discovered that _________. A. modern teaching methods provide students with entertainment B. students taught by modern techniques are happy and successful C. traditional teaching methods help students get higher score D. students like old teaching better than modern teaching at school 26. We can infer from Paragraph 3 that ____________. A. child-centered education promotes friendship among children B. the research findings are not significant enough for a conclusion C. those who show greater interest in school did better in exams D. those not showing much interest in school may turn out to score higher in tests 27. Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage? A. The Examination-based Teaching B. Rote Learning Was the Winner C. The Problem of Child-centered Education D. The Problem of the Traditional Method

Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents' home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station(加油站)about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款台), I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas. I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend's. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card. I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful. Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I'd left the lights on all day, and the battery(电池)was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership - a shop selling cars - was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom. "Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?" I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said. "Thank you" - two powerful words. They're easy to say and mean so much. 31. The author planned to stop at Oklahoma City_________.

Kids with Special Needs Kids with special needs refer to any kid who might need extra help because of medical, emotional, or learning problems. For example, disabled kids need wheelchairs. They not only need the equipment that helps them get around, but they might need to have ramps(斜坡) or elevators available. 36 Kids with an illness would have special needs, too. 37 Kids with sight problems might need Braille books to read. Kids with hearing problems might need hearing aids. 38 It might be harder to do normal things—like learning to read or just getting around school. The good news is that parents, doctors, nurses, teachers, and others can help. The goal is to help kids be as independent as possible. Other kids also can be a big help. How? By being a friend. Kids who use a wheelchair or have lots of health problems want friends just as you do. But meeting people and making friends can be difficult. 39 Be sure to tell a teacher if you see someone being bullied(欺侮) or teased. 40 You might carry the person’s books or do something simple, such as asking him or her to join you and your friends at lunch. It’s also important not to be “overly helpful” when no help is needed. Why? Because just like you, kids with special needs like to be as independent as they can be. Being friendly to kids with special needs is one of the best ways to be helpful. As you get to know, they may help you understand what it’s like to be in their shoes. And you’ll be helping fill a very special need, one that everybody has—the need for good friends. A.Some kids might laugh at or make fun of them. B.They also might need to get a special bus to school. C.Life can be challenging for a kid with special needs. D.It’s good manners to try to offer help to kids with special needs. E.Also try to be helpful if you know someone with special needs. F.Kids with special needs usually live a harder life than normal kids. G.They might need medicine or other help as they go about their daily activities.
