The example of Aristotle indicates that______.
A.universities in the UK have produced too many good-for-nothing graduates
B.universities should stop teaching philosophy
C.high technology is now valued more than other courses in universities
D.universities should put more stress on computer science
In recent years universities have been coming under increasing pressure from. both the governments and the public to ensure that they do not remain "ivory towers(象牙塔)" of study separated from the realities of everyday life. University teachers have been encouraged, and in some cases constrained (强逼), to provide more courses which produce graduates with the technical skills required for the commercial use. (78)If Aristotle wanted to work in a university in the UK today, he would have a good chance of teaching computer science but would not be so readily employable as a philosopher.
A post-industrial society requires large numbers of computer programmers, engineers, managers and technicians to maintain and develop its economic growth but "man", as the Bible says, "does not live by bread alone." (79) Apart from requiting medical and social services which do not directly contribute to economic growth, the society should also value and enjoy literature, music and the arts. Because they can also promote economic growth. A successful musical play, for instance, can contribute as much to the Gross National Product through tourist dollars as any other things.
The main idea of the first paragraph is that ______
A.traditional universities do a good job serving the society
B.universities must meet the needs of the society
C.research and teaching are of great importance in universities
D.universities play an important role in our society
The virus told each computer to make many copies of itself. Within a few minutes, all the computers' power was being used to make copies of the virus. The computer could do no other work. It finally slowed down greatly, or simply stopped working. Computer experts spent many days trying to destroy the virus in the computer system.
The experts agree the virus could have been much worse. They say it could have sent orders to destroy huge amounts of electronic information.
Many experts believe, the recent computer virus showed the need for better computer security (安全). But that is a problem. The affected system provides a free exchange (交换) of ideas and information among universities, private companies and government offices. Increasing security too much would destroy this exchange. It would slow progress on many important research projects.
Which of the following statements is true?
A.Many computers were attacked by a virus in the U. S.
B.Many computers attacked by a virus in the U.S. lost their information.
C.A computer virus can harm human body.
D.A computer virus can help the computer owner do many things.

But the article is actually quite optimistic, as it outlines a potential solution to this problem, suggesting that an approach(which involves a one-hour, next-to-no-cost program) can close 63 percent of the achievement gap(measured by such factors as grades)between first-generation and other students.
The authors of the paper are from different universities, and their findins are based on a study involving 147 students(who completed the project)at an unnamed private unive rsity.First generation was defined as not having a parent with a four-year college degree Most of the first-generation students(1 percent) were recipients of Pell Grants,a federal g rant for undergraduates with financial need,while this was true only for 8.6 percent of the students wit at least one parent with a four-year degree Their thesis-that a relatively modest inte rvention could have a big impact-was based on the view that first-gene ration students may be most lacking not in potential but in practical knowledge about how to deal with the issues that face most college students They cite past resea rch by several authors to show that this is the gap that must be na rrowed to close the achievement gap.
Many first-gene ration students"struggle to navigate the middle-class culture of higher education,learn the&39;rules of the game,&39;and take advantage of college resou rces," they write And this becomes more of a problem when collages don&39;t talk about the class advantage and disadvantages of different groups of students Because US colleges and universities seldom acknowledge how social class can affect students&39; educational expe rience,many first-gene ration students lack sight about why they a re struggling and do not unde rstand how students&39; like them can improve .
26. Recruiting more first-generation students has__________________
A.reduced their dropout rates
B.narrowed the achievement gao
C.missed its original purpose
D.depressed college students
The author of the research article are optimistic because__________________A.the problem is solvable
B.their approach is costless
C.the recruiting rate has increased
D.their finding appeal to students
The author of the paper believe that first-generation students__________________A.a re actually indifferent to the achievement gap
B.can have a potential influence on othe r students
C.may lack opportunities to apply for resea rch projects
D.are inexperienced in handling their issues at college
The study suggests that most first-gene ration students__________________A.study at private universities
B.are from single-pa rent families
C.are in need of financial support
D.have failed their collage
We mayinfer from the last paragraph that--A.universities often rect the culture of the middle-class
B.students are usually to blame for their lack of resources
C.social class g reatly helps en rich educational experiences
D.colleges are partly responsible for the problem in question

根据以下材料回答第 51~55 题:
Passage FiveOnline distance learning (网上远程教育) is an instructional system which connects learners with educational resources. Students work on their own at home, at work, or at school and communicate with faculty and other students by means of e-mail, electronic meetings, videoconferencing, chat rooms, instant messaging and other forms of computer-based communication. There are both advantages and disadvantages to online distance learning.
There are many benefits to using online distance learning environments. Online education is available all the time, anywhere and to all people. However, there are weaknesses for some learners. The online learner only has the written text and no other face-to-face hints. This may confuse the learner and cause misunderstanding. While distance learning allows for an openness, it is also difficult because it is done by e-mail messages and writing, and therefore may take more time than face-to-face learning. Sometimes the messages can be overwhelming for many online students.
Universities, colleges and schools use online distance learning environments. These are important for students who may be unable to attend classes for various reasons like illnesses or busy everyday schedules. Some learners just want to further their studies at home. They enjoy the convenience of home learning as they take regular programs or enrichment classes.
