One major decision which faces the American student

ready to begin higher education is the choice of attending

a large university or a small college. The large university

provides wide range of specialized departments, as well 【S1】______

as numerous courses with so departments. The small 【S2】______

college, moreover, generally provides a limited number 【S3】______

of courses and specialization but offers a better 【S4】______

student faculty ratio, thus permitting individualized

attention to students. Because its large, cosmopolitan 【S5】______

student body the university exposes its students for many 【S6】______

different cultural, social, and extracurricular programs.

On the other hand, the smaller, more homogeneous

student body of the small college afford greater opportunities 【S7】______

for direct involvement and individual participation in

such activities. Finally, the university closely approximates

the unreal world; it provides a relaxed, impersonal, and 【S8】______

sometimes anonymous existence. In contrast, the intimate

atmosphere of the small college prevents the student four 【S9】______

years of structured living in which to contemplate and prepare

for the real world. In making his choice among educational

institutions the student, therefore, consider many facts. 【S10】______

听力原文： In the United States, the average age of a college student used to be between eighteen and twenty-six years old. Not any more. Over the years, this has changed. Now many colleges and universities boast a large number of non-traditional students.

Many of these non-traditional students are older than the traditional students. Senior citizens are joining the ranks of non-traditional students on campuses throughout the United States. These non- traditional students frequently work during the day and go to school at night or on weekends. They may have started college after they graduated from high school, but later, because of family, or work responsibilities, had their education interrupted.

Traditional Students benefit from having older students in their classes. Senior citizens are excellent role models for some younger students who may not take college as seriously as they should. Senior attend college or the university, not because they have to, but because they want to. Some senior citizens take individual college courses only for personal enrichment. Others attend college to fulfill their lifelong dream of earning college degrees.

(33)

A．Under the ages of eighteen.

B．Between the ages of eighteen and twenty-six.

C．Between the ages of twenty-six and fifty-six.

D．Over sixty-five years of age.

There are few more sobering online activities than entering data into college-tuition calc

ulators and gasping as the Web spits back a six-figure sum. But economists say families about to go into debt to fund four years of partying, as well as studying, can console themselves with the knowledge that college is an investment that, unlike many bank stocks, should yield hefty dividends.

A 2008 study by two Harvard economists notes that the "labor-market premium to skill"—or the amount college graduates earned that's greater than what high-school graduates earned—decreased for much of the 20th century, but has come back with a vengeance (报复性地) since the 1980s. In 2005, the typical full-time year-round U.S. worker with a four-year college degree earned $50,900, 62% more than the $31,500 earned by a worker with only a high-school diploma.

There's no question that going to college is a smart economic choice. But a look at the strange variations in tuition reveals that the choice about which college to attend doesn't come down merely to dollars and cents. Does going to Columbia University (tuition, room and board $ 49,260 in 2007 — 08) yield a 40% greater return than attending the University of Colorado at Boulder as an out-of-state student ($35,542)？ Probably not. Does being an out-of-state student at the University of Colorado at Boulder yield twice the amount of income as being an in-state student ($17,380) there？ Not likely.

No, in this consumerist age, most buyers aren't evaluating college as an investment, but rather as a consumer product—like a car or clothes or a house. And with such purchases, price is only one of many crucial factors to consider.

As with automobiles, consumers in today's college marketplace have vast choices, and people search for the one that gives them the most comfort and satisfaction in line with their budgets. This accounts for the willingness of people to pay more for different types of experiences (such as attending a private liberal-arts college or going to an out-of-state public school that has a great marine-biology program). And just as two auto purchasers might spend an equal amount of money on very different cars, college students (or, more accurately, their parents) often show a willingness to pay essentially the same price for vastly different products. So which is it？ Is college an investment product like a stock or a consumer product like a car？ In keeping with the automotive world's hottest consumer trend, maybe it's best to characterize it as a hybrid (混合动力汽车); an expensive consumer product that, over time, will pay rich dividends.

What's the opinion of economists about going to college？

A．Huge amounts of money is being wasted on campus socializing.

B．It doesn't pay to run into debt to receive a college education.

C．College education is rewarding in spite of the startling costs.

D．Going to college doesn't necessarily bring the expected returns.

Passage Two

Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.

There are few more sobering online activities than entering data into college-tuition calculators and gasping as the Web spits back a six-figure sum. But economists say families about to go into debt to fund four years of partying, as well as studying, can console themselves with the knowledge that college is an investment that, unlike many bank stocks, should yield huge dividends.

A 2008 study by two Harvard economists notes that the “labor-market premium to skill”—or the amount college graduates earned that’s greater than what high-school graduate earned—decreased for much of the 20th century, but has come back with a vengeance (报复性地) since the 1980s.

But a look at the strange variations in tuition reveals that the choice about which college to attend doesn’t come down merely to dollars and cents. Does going to Columbia University (tuition, room and board $49,260 in 2007-08) yield a 40% greater return than attending the University of Colorado at Boulder as an out-of-state student ($35,542)？ Probably not.

听力原文： Americans like to laugh and make jokes, especially practical jokes. These jokes, intended to trick or deceive people in some harmless way, and are always popular. In the United States and a few other countries the first day of April, April Fool's Day, is a day devoted to such harmless practical jokes and an excuse for every American to fool his friends and neighbors.

When I was a college student, our daily college newspaper, which was read by most of the people who lived in the city near the college as well as by students, always had a special April Fool's Edition. One year the paper said that a beautiful park in the center of the campus was to be turned into a parking lot.

Another year the paper falsely reported that a Russian submarine had been seen in the lake which is on the campus. It was surprising that many people believed these stories. But probably the most successful practical being invaded by people from Mars. His description of this invasion from outer space was so realistic that he caused a panic and was actualy responsible for the deaths of several people.

(30)

A．A joke played on the April Fool's Day.

B．A harmless joke intended to trick people.

C．An American joke.

D．A joke in college newspapers.
