46、stions 51 to 55are based on the following passage。By almost any measure， there is a boom in Internet-based instruction. In just a few years, 34 percent of American universities have begun offering some form of distance leaning （DL）， and among the larger schools, its closer to 90 percent。 If you doub

47、t the popularity of the trend， you probably havent heard of the University of Phoenix. It grants degrees entirely on the basis of online instruction. It enrolls 90,000 students， a statistic used to support its claim to be the largest private university in the country。While the kinds of instruction o

48、ffered in these programs will differ, DL usually signifies a course in which the instructors post syllabi (课程大纲）， reading assignments， and schedules on Websites, and students send in their assignments by email. Generally speaking, facetoface communication with an instructor is minimized or eliminate

49、d altogether. The attraction for students might at first seem obvious. Primarily, theres the convenience promised by courses on the Net: you can do the work, as they say， in your pajamas （睡衣）。 But figures indicate that the reduced effort results in a reduced commitment to the course. While dropout r

50、ates for all freshmen at American universities is around 20 percent, the rate for online students is 35 percent。 Students themselves seem to understand the weaknesses inherent in the setup. In a survey conducted for eCornell， the DL division of CornellUniversity， less than a third of the respondents

51、 expected the quality of the online course to be as good as the classroom course. Clearly， from the schools perspective, theres a lot of money to be saved。 Although some of the more ambitious programs require new investments in servers and networks to support collaborative software， most DL courses

52、can run on existing or minimallyupgraded (升级） systems. The more students who enroll in a course but dont come to campus, the more the school saves on keeping the lights on in the classrooms, paying doorkeepers, and maintaining parking lots. And, while theres evidence that instructors must work harde

53、r to run a DL course for a variety of reasons, they wont be paid any more, and might well be paid less.51。 What is the most striking feature of the University of Phoenix?A. It boasts the largest number of students on campus. B。 All its courses are offered online. C。 Its online courses are of the bes

54、t quality. D。 Anyone taking its online courses is sure to get a degree。52。 According to the passage， distance learning is basically characterized by _。 A。 a minimum or total absence of facetoface instruction B. a considerable flexibility in its academic requirements C。 the great diversity of student

55、s academic backgrounds D。 the casual relationship between students and professors53. Many students take Internet-based courses mainly because they can _。 A。 save a great deal on traveling and boarding expenses B. select courses from various colleges and universities C。 work on the required courses w

56、henever and wherever D。 earn their academic degrees with much less effort54。 What accounts for the high dropout rates for online students? A。 There is no mechanism to ensure that they make the required effort。 B. There is no strict control over the academic standards of the courses. C. The evaluatio

57、n system used by online universities is inherently weak. D. Lack of classroom interaction reduces the effectiveness of instruction.55。 According to the passage， universities show great enthusiasm for DL programs for the purpose of _。 A. building up their reputation B. upgrading their teaching facili
