8、idea in higher education these days is the massive open online course, or MOOC.Some universities offer free, noncredit(无学分的)MOOCs available to anyone in the world. Others charge for courses and provide credits. The idea is still developing.So far, most massive open online courses are in computer sci
9、ence, technology, mechanics and engineering. For example, students around the world are taking a free course called “Building a Computer Search Engine”. Two computer scientists, Sebastian Thrun and David Evans, are offering this course through .There are no education requirements for the course. The
10、 students watch short videos. Then, Mr Evans says, they take informal quizzes(测试)after the videos each week for six weeks.DAVID EVANS: “Quizzes are part of the lecture to keep students engaged and keep them thinking, for students to be able to check that they understood what we covered. Those are no
11、t graded and students try those as often as they wish. They can repeatedly watch the videos and take the quizzes whenever they want.”Students receive homework. They join online groups to exchange questions and answers about the course. The teachers hold office hours to answer questions that the stud
12、ents have voted to send them. They also present their own questions and observations to the students in order to help them make a deeper impression of the course.The students take a final examination to show where they rate in the class. Everyone who finishes the course receives a grade and proof of
13、 completion. Top students get letters documenting their work.Mr Thrun started Udacity, which supports free MOOCs. Udacity hopes to make a profit in the future by connecting possible employers with interested students. On his Stanford homepage, he says he wants to democratize education. “Education”,

20、World_Food_Crisis_on_behalf_of_our_group._As_you_know,_food_shortages_have_hit_many_countries_in_the_world_and_even_caused_social_unrest_in_some_areas. But what has caused the current world food crisis? First, annual world grain output has declined because of climate change. Second, lots of farmland
21、 has been lost due to the rapid development of industry and urbanization, which has worsened the severe situation.Then how can we deal with the problem? On the one hand, we should focus on the environmental protection and improve the ecology. On the other hand, strict measures should be taken to pro
22、tect farmland. Of course, developed countries should take their responsibilities to help the poor ones experiencing food shortage.As for me, I will call on the people around me to live thriftily. And for the moment, I think, we should study hard to develop science and help solve the food shortage in the future.
