About 88,000 international students have found
2、 solution. They are attendingU.S.community colleges. Such colleges are sometimes called junior colleges. They offer two years of education above the secondary or high school level.Community college students can choose from subjects like medical assistance, computer science or law. At the end of thei
3、r study program, they receive a document of completion, called a certificate. Some students work toward an associate degree in traditional academic subjects like science or history.

4、 left before they receive a bachelors degree.Many educational experts agree that saving money is the major reason to consider a community college. The American Association of Community Colleges (AACC) says that a public two-year college costs 3,000 dollar a year on average. That is true if the stude
5、nt lives in the same state as the school. A student at a four-year public college may pay 8,500 dollars a year for classes and user fees. That does not include books and other materials.Some international students may need more preparation in English before entering a community college in theUnited
6、States. For example, Istrif Montgomery came to theU.S.from Kosovo in 2006. First, he worked to improve his English atMontgomeryCollegefor a year. Then for the next two years, he attended classes in basic subjects in a community college.The international students at two-year colleges need to find a p
7、lace to live. Most community colleges do not provide student housing on their grounds. But Mr Montgomery had a home nearby. He was able to ride the bicycle, and he was able to walk if he wanted.

10、nternational students how to save money.C. To tell us its a good choice to study in public colleges.D. To give some information about community colleges. BI always avoid going on field investigations with the toxics（有毒物）team, unless its absolutely necessary. Its not that I mind the hard work, or am
11、afraid of coming into contact with toxic substances. What I fear is quickly losing hope about the work I do. However, doing field research with the toxic team, all I see and feel is filth-nothing else. Even if I close my eyes, I can smell the smell of food processing, rotting organic waste from pape
12、r mills and chemicals from clothing manufacturers. One morning, I went to investigate a discharged pipe to document and collect samples of pollutants secretly being emitted by a textile mill. I had to work with the utmost secrecy in order to avoid being discovered by the textile mill. Idipped a long
13、 measuring pole into the large polluting pipe to measure the volume of polluted water being emitted.But the surface of the water, covered in oil and filth, mademe feel as if tovomit(呕吐). All of a sudden, I felt someone hit me on my back, it frightened me so much that I almost fell into the water. I
14、grasped the pole and looked behind me to see an old man standing there. He asked:“Can you catch fish here?”I realized that he thought I was holding a fish pole, so I kept calm and said: “Yes, I heard that theres a kind of small fish living in this water, and it has medicinal benefits.” The old man g
15、rew quite curious and replied:“That may be. If a fish can survive in water as dirty as this, it must have a lot of resistance. So it wouldnt be too strange if such fish had medicinal benefits.” It was clear he was just passing by, so I answered:“Yeah, survival of the fittest. Fish that adapt can sur
16、vive, just like us humans.” He kept talking to me and didnt want to leave.

18、riosity.B. Because the old man was interested in fishing too.C. Because he did the research secretly.D. Because the old man wanted to buy the fish.4.

19、 tell the old man the fact.D. the old man was sent to watch over the writer. C Childhood was an illusion (错觉) and the illusion was this: everything was bigger. No, Imean everything, not just houses and shops and grown-ups, but colors and flowers and journeys, especially journeys which seemed endless
20、. “Are we there yet, Daddy?”Funfairs (游乐场) were huge things that spread for miles around you with noise and lights and exciting danger. Rainy days at home when you were ill seemed to last for ever. Being a grown-up yourself was an unthinkable distant possibility. Every sound was louder, every game w
21、as grander, every pain unbearable.As Ive grown old, life has become smaller. Tastes have bulled. Surprises have lurned into shocks. Days go by unnoticed. How can I regain childhood when it was an illusion?I have only one repeatable and wonderful way and even in this way I can regain only part of tha
22、t larger world. I can play upon the stage like a child and make the crowd laugh and laugh with them, sometimes helplessly like a child, and then, even though Im a sixty-one-year-old man, I can almost catch the colors and sounds and stillness of those bigger years when I was little.1.

23、thor feel about his childhood?A. It was endless. B. It was unpleasant.C. He is glad that it is over.D. He misses it as a grown-up2.

25、 as to .A. act like a childB. live an unusual lifeC. make the crowd laughD. regain his childhood DWhy I Dont Spare “Spare Change”“Poor but honest.” “The deserving（值得帮助的）poor. ” These words always come to my mind when I think of “the poor. ” But I also think of people who, perhaps through alcohol（酒）o
26、r drugs, have ruined not only their own lives but also the lives of others in order to give way to their own pleasure. Perhaps alcoholism and drug addiction（上瘾）really are “diseases. ” as many people say, but my own feelingbased, of course, not on any serious studyis that most alcoholies and drug add
27、icts belong to the “undeserving poor. ” And that is largely why I dont give spare change to beggars.But surely among the street people there are also some who can rightly be called “deserving.” Deserving what? My spare change? Or simply the governments assistance? It happens that I have been brought
28、 up to believe that it is proper to make contributions to charity（慈善机构）, but if I give some change to a beggar, am I making a contribution to charity and thereby helping someone, or, am I perhaps simply encouraging someone not to get help?

30、an feel that ones money is likely to be used wisely. True, facing a beggar one may feel that this particular unfortunate person needs help at this momenta cup of coffee or a sandwichand the need will not be met unless I put my hand in my pocket right now. But I have come to think that the beggars wh
31、om I meet can get along without my spare change, and indeed perhaps they are actually better off for not having money to buy alcohol or drugs.I know nothing about these beggars, but its my impression that they simply prefer begging to working. I am not generalizing about street people. I am talking
32、about the people whom I actually meet. Thats why I do not give “spare change, ” and I dont think I will in the future.1What does the author think of beggars who take drugs?AThey should be given a cheek-up.BThey really need money to live.CThey have no pleasure in life.DThey are not worth helping.2Why
33、 doesnt the author give money to street people?AHe doesnt think they need help. BHe doesnt have enough money to give. CHe is not convinced they will use it rightly.DHe believes they can get help from the government. 3In the second paragraph, the author presents his idea by _.Aasking questions for pe
