C READING

I Read the passage and choose the best answer.

COLLEGE STUDENTS IN THE UNITED STATES TODAY

A Life on US college campuses is always changing One change these days is that there are more foreign students than ever before, especially in certain maijors and graduate schools There are almost half a million foreign sutdents in colleges and universities in United States Most of these students are studying business and management Almost as many are maijoring in engineering Other practical courses –

mathematics, computer science, and some life sciences ( such as biology) are also popular maijors Not many foreigner students are maijoring in the humanity ( literrure, art, drama, philosophy, etc.) or the social sciences (anthropology), psychology, and so on, probably because they don’t believe these fields offer the best job opportunities

B For many years in the United States, most undergraduate students (in their first four years of college) were 18 years old They attended college full time, lived in a dormitory on campus, and expected many

“extras” from their colleges, not just classes But things began to change in the 1970s and are very different now Today, these “traditional” students are less than one-quarter (1/4) of all college students These days the traditional students are maijority; they are different from traditional undergraduates in several ways They are older Many attend college part-time because they have families and jobs Most live off campus, not in dorms These traditional students don’t want the extras that colleges usually offer They aren’t interested in the sports, entertainment, religious groups, and museaums that are part of most U.S.colllleges They want mainly good-quality classes, day or night, at a low cost They also hope for easy parking, short resgistration lines, and polite service Both time and money are important to them

C Psychological tests reflect different learning styles in this new student population, too Each person has a certain learning style, and about 60% of the new students these days prefer a sensing style This means that they are very practical They prefer a practice-to-theory method of learning – experience first and idea after that They often have difficulty with reading anf writing and are unsure of themselves Moat of these students are attending colleges because they want to have a good job and make a lot of money

D In another way, also, students these days are different from students in the past In the 1960s and 1970s, many s tudents demonstrated against the government and hoped to make big changes in society In the 1980s, most students were interested only in their studies and future jobs Today, students seem to be a

combination of the two They want to make good money when they graduate, but they are also interested in helping society Many students today are volunteering in the community They are working to help people, without payment For example, they tutor (teach privately) children in trouble, or they work with organizations for homeless people In these ways, they hope to make changes in society

41. Nowadays, few foreign students are maijoring in literaure, philosophy or psychology because A.these fields are not very popular B.they don’t hope they can get good jobs in the future C.they are practical courses D.they want classes at a low cost

42. These days, most traditional students

A.are studying business and management B.attend college part-time
