80. __________ 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 a wide range of specialized departments, as well numerous courses within such departments. The small college, therefore, generally provides a limited number of courses and specializations but offer a better student-faculty ratio, thus permit individualized attention to student. Because of it6s large student body (often exceeding 20,000) consisting in many people from different countries the university exposes its students to many difference culture, social and out-of-class programmes. On the other hand, the smaller, more homogeneous(同性质的) student body of the big college affords greater opportunities in such activities. Finally, the university closely approximates the real world and which provides a relaxed, impersonal, and sometimes anonymous (隐姓埋名的) existence, on the contrast, the intimate
atmosphere of the small college allows the student four years of structural living in which to expect and preparing for the real
world. In making his choice among educational institutions the student must, there fore, consider a great many factors. 71. (well)  (well) as 72. therefore  however 73. offer  offers 75. in  of

of Population\" almost 200 years ago. Ever since then, forecasters have being warning that worldwide famine was just around the next corner. The fast-growing population's demand for food, they warned, would soon exceed their supply, leading to widespread food shortages and starvation. But in reality, the world's total grain harvest has risen steadily over the years. Except for relative isolated trouble spots like present-day Somalia, and occasional years of good harvests, the world's food crisis has remained just around the corner. Most experts believe this can continue even as if the population doubles by the mid-21st century, although feeding I0 billion people will not be easy for politics, economic and environmental reasons. Optimists

has recognized the need for change and done something about it. In the newspaper industry, papers must reflect the diversity of the communities to which they provide information. It must reflect that diversity with their news coverage or risk losing their readers’ interest and their advertisers’ support. Operating within Seattle, which has 20 percents racial minorities, the paper has put into place policies and procedures for hiring and maintain a diverse workforce. The underlying reason for the change is that for information to be
fair, appropriate, and subjective, it should be reported by the same kind of population that reads it. A diversity committee composed of reporters, editors, and photographers meets regularly to value the Seattle Times’ content and to educate the rest of the newsroom staff about diversity issues. In an addition, the paper instituted a content audit (审查) that evaluates the frequency and manner of representation of woman and people of color in photographs.
26
Early audits showed that minorities were pictured far too infrequently and were pictured with a disproportionate number of negative articles. The audit results from improvement in the frequency of majority representation and their portrayal in neutral or positive situations. And, with a

A great many cities are experiencing difficulties which are nothing new in the history of cities, except in their scale. Some cities have lost their original purpose and have not found new one. And any large or rich city is going to attract poor immigrants, who flood in, filling with hopes of prosperity which are then often disappointing. There are backward towns on the edge of Bombay or Brasilia, just as though there were on the edge of seventeenth-century London or early nine- teenth-century Paris. This is new is the scale.

through the 19th and 20th centuries. In the 1950s, the introduction of antibiotics (抗菌素) strengthened the trend in rich countries, and the antibiotics were allowed to be imported to poor countries. Medical researchers declared victory and withdrew.
They are wrong. In the mid-1980s the frequency of infections and deaths started to pick up again around the world. Where tuberculosis vanished, it came back; in many places where it had never been away, it grew better. The World Health Organization estimates that 1.7 billion people (a third of the earth’s population) suffer from tuberculosis. Even the infection rate was falling, population growth kept the number of clinical cases more or less constantly at 8 million a year. Around 3 million of those people died, nearly all of them in poor countries.

However, a second person thought that this was more a
question of civilized behavior as good manners. Instead, this other person told us a story, it he said was quite well known, about an American who had been invited to an Arab meal at one of the countries of the Middle East. The American hasn’t been told very much about the kind of food he might expect. If he had known about American food, he might have behaved better. Immediately before him was a very flat piece of bread that looked, to him, very much as a napkin(餐巾). Picking it up, he put it into his collar, so that it falls across his shirt. His Arab host, who had been watching, said of nothing, but immediately copied the action of his guest. And that, said this second person, was a fine example of good manners.

Parents can be supportive of suspicions. They can be helpful to the teacher, or are in need of help 1. themselves. Sometimes, I think parents are too hard to their children.

over everything having to do with school. My
response usually is: ”well, you know, he is really a good kid. He is fine in my class. Maybe you should not be too strict with them.”
We want parents to realize the fact that teachers are professors at working with children. They have observed many children and many parents. Because of this, and because of their specialized training, teachers can be realistic about children. Teachers know whether parents want their children to do well and to behave well. But teachers know less what children should be able to do at different ages and stages. They don’t expect the 8-year-olds to do the work that can only be done by the 12-year-olds. Parents, in the contrary, often expect their children to do what is usually beyond their age and ability. Obviously, this may make great harm to the children’s development.

Closure is the positive felling you get when you

5. 6.

9. 10. 1.________ 2.________ 34
manageable goals, list them, and check them off
your list as you finish them. For example, suppose
your historic teacher assigns three chapters to be 3.________ read. If your goal is to read all three chapters, you may feel discouraged if you don’t complete the reading at one time. A more effective way to complete the assignment is to divide the reading into
smaller goals by thinking each chapter as a separate 4.________ goal. Thus you experience success as you complete.
each chapter. While you have completed the overall goal, you know you have progressed toward it.
A second block to obtaining closure is unfinished business. You may have several tasks with the same
deadline. If changing from one task to another serves as a break, changing tasks too often waste time. Each time you switch, you lose momentum. You may be unable to change mental gears fast enough. You may find yourself thinking about the old project
when you should be concentrating in the new one. In addition, when you return to your first task, you
have to review where you are and what steps were left for you to finish.
Often you solve this problem by determining how much time you have free to work. If the time available is short (i.e. ,an hour or less), you need to
work on only one task. Alternate tasks when you have more time. Completing one task or a large
portion of a task attributes to the feeling of closure.
