23、解、完形填空42、Online degree programs have come a long way since their early days. Traditionalcolleges and universities have developed distance learning programs to accommodateindividuals who would not otherwise have the time or funds to earn an advanced degree.Online programs require the same amount of s

24、tudy and work as a classroom program. Ifyou are under the impression that courses offered online will be a walk in the park, thinkagain! Online degree programs are often more difficult than traditional universityprograms due to the fact the work and study is left up to the student. Time managementsk

25、ills are crucial, since there is not a particular time of the day set aside specifically forstudy. It may take some time to become accustomed to this method of scholarship, butthe pros of online classes may outweigh the cons in your situation.The main difference between online degree programs and tr

26、aditional higher educationis the location of learning. Instead of being confined to a stuffy classroom filled withstudents, these online classes have a more personal feeling. While many studentswould be hesitant to speak one to one with a class instructor, online programs find theirstudents more wil

27、ling to contact their professors via e-mail. This great participationencourages better understanding of the course material. Of course, not attending aclass also comes with additional barriers. A student must be equipped with timemanagement skills in order to succeed in an online class. Students tha

28、t lack the propertime management skills may find themselves overwhelmed with course work at the endof the semester or falling behind in their studies.Whether you choose to attend a traditional college or university or enroll in an onlinehigher education program, the chances of success are equal. In

29、the end, it is up to youin order to complete the course of study and earn your degree.

35、arners have a few characteristics in common. Compare yourselfto the following list to determine whether or not online classes are a good fit for your personality andhabits.1.Successful distance learners do just as well, if not better, without people looking over their shoulder.While some people need

36、 teachers to keep them motivated and on-task, distance learners are able tomotivate themselves. They realize that they will never be face-to-face with the people who give themassignments and grade their work, but they donnt eed others to encourage them. The most successfulstudents are self-motivated

37、 and set their own goals.2.Successful distance learners never (or at least rarely) put off their assignments or wait until the lastmoment to write their papers. These students enjoy the freedom of working at their own pace andappreciate the ability to complete their work in as much time as it takes

38、them, instead of waiting for anentire class. However, they understand that putting off their work too often can end up adding months,if not years, to their studies.3.Successful distance learners have good reading comprehension skills. While most people learn bylistening to lectures and taking notes,

39、 the majority of distance learners are expected to master materialthrough reading alone. Although some distance learning courses offer video recordings and audio clips,most programs require that students understand a large amount of information that is only availablethrough written text. These stude

40、nts are able to comprehend texts at the college level without the directguidance of a teacher.4.Successful distance learners can resist constant distractions. Whether itsthe phone ringing off the hook, the kids screaming in the kitchen, or the temptation of TV programs,everyone faces distractions. S

41、uccessful students know how to filter out the constant disturbances thatthreaten their progress.They feel comfortable turning down an invitation or letting the machine pick upthe phone when they know there is work to be done.(D)(1) Which of the following is NOT included in the successful distance le

43、sh him.(C) He has to postpone his graduation.(D) Nothing will happen to him.(B)_(3) The phrase“filterout”laisnt tphaeragraph means _.(A) choosing something to learn(B) getting rid of the disturbances(C)working out a plan(D) solving the problem(D)(4) What we can infer from this passage is that _ .(A)

44、 distance learners will never refuse the invitation for coming out because they are free(B) only with written texts provided by online class, reading comprehension skills are very important todistance learners(C) traditional learners can enjoy the freedom of working at their own pace(D) even without

45、 good reading comprehension, traditional learners still can make progress with thehelp of teacher(C)(5) Based on this passage, the author intends to tell us that _.online learning is the perfect option for everyone(B) no one would like to enroll at a traditional school(C) learners must consider whet

46、her they have the qualities to attend online classes before making theirdecision(D) online learning will take the place of traditional school in future44、If you want to stay young, sit down and have a good think. This is the research finding of a teamof Japanese doctors, who say that most of our bra

47、ins are not getting enough exercise-and as a result,we are ageing unnecessarily soon.Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise healthy farmersin northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age, andhow the process of ageing could be sl

48、owed down. With a team of colleagues at Tokyo NationalUniversity, he set about measuring brain volumes of a thousand people of different ages and varyingoccupations.Computer technology enabled the researchers to obtain precisemeasurements of the volume of the front and side sections of the brain, wh

49、ich relate to intellect andemotion, and determine the human character. (The rear section of the brain, which controls functionslike eating and breathing, does not contract with age, and one can continue living without intellectual oremotional faculties.)Contraction of front and side parts was observ

50、ed in some subjects in their thirties, but it was still notevident in some sixty-and-seventy-year-olds.Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple remedy to the contraction normallyassociated with age-using the head.The findings show in general terms that contraction of the brain begin

51、s sooner in people in the countrythan in the towns. Those least at risk, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professorsand doctors. White collar workers doing routine work in government offices are, however, as likely tohave shrinking brains as the farm worker, bus driver and shop as

52、sistant. Matsuzawas findings showthat thinking can prevent the brain from shrinking. Blood must circulate properly in the head to supplythe fresh oxygen the brain cells need.“The best way to maintain good blood circulation is throughusingthe brain,”he says.“Thinkhard and engage in conversation. Dont

53、rely on pocket calculators.”(A)(1) The team of doctors wanted to find out _ .(A) why certain people age sooner than others(B) how to make people livelonger(C) the size of certain peoplesbrains(D) which people are mostintelligent(C)(2) What are their research findings based on?(A) A survey of farmers

54、 in northern Japan.(B) Tests performed on a thousand old people.(C) The study of brain volumes of different people(D) The latest development of computer technology.(A)(3) The doctors tests show that _.(A) our brains shrink as we grow older(B) the front section of the brain does not shrink(C) sixty-y

55、ear-olds have better brains than thirty-year-olds(D) some peoples brains have contracted more than other people cs (C)(4) The word“subjects”inparagraph 5 means_ .(A) something to be considered(B) branches of knowledge studied(C) persons chosen to be studied in an experiment(D) any member of a state

56、except the supreme ruler(A)(5) According to the passage, which people seem to age slower than the others?(A) Lawyers. (B) Farmers. (C) Clerks. (D) Shop assistants. 45、Soccer is played by millions of peopleall over the world, but there have only been few players who were truly great. How did these pl

57、ayers getthat waywas it through training and practice, or are great players born, not made? First, theseplayers came from places that have had famous stars in the pastplayers that a young boy can lookup to and try to imitate. In the history of soccer, only six countries have ever won the World Cupth

58、reefrom South America and three from Western Europe. There has never been a great national teamora really great playerfrom North America or from Asia. Second, these players have all had years ofpractice in the game. Alfredo Di Stefano was the son of a soccer player, as was Pele. Most playersbegin pl

59、aying the game at the age of three or four.Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighborhooda poor,crowded area where a boysdream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman, but to become a rich,famous athlete or entertainer. For example, Liverpool which produced the Beatles (甲壳

60、虫乐队)，hadone of the best English soccer teams in recent years. Pele practiced in the street with a“ballmade of rags. And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous bybouncing the ball off a wall in the slums (贫民窟)of Belfast.All great players have a lot in common, but that doesnt explain why
