Dear College Dean

It is my understanding that this college has received a large donation to be used to enhance (improve) the quality of life for students: expand the bookstore or add computers to the computer lab. It is the tradition of this school to promote education and to be at the vanguard of new technology. That is why I strongly argue in favor of the addition of more computers to the computer lab.

Although expanding the campus bookstore to include CDs, gifts, and a snack bar will give a nicer look to the college, we have to think about a greater goal and a more practical way to enhance the quality of life for students. What do we want for our students and our college? Do we want our college to be known as a place with a great bookstore where you can find CDs and gifts, or as a place where the students can explore and research in their field using the best tools provided by technology? In addition, there are already several snack bars on campus, and there are music stores nearby, so students do not depend on the college bookstore for these things.

We live in a highly technological world and computers play an increasingly important role in how we live. As a learning institution, this college has the responsibility to offer its students the best technology to help them prepare for their future. Many students will be expected to be familiar with the latest software and other tools when they go on to work or to graduate school.

While they are in college, students find they are expected to use computers. Many professors expect students to use computers to do homework or to complete projects. Students are asked to create PowerPoint presentations and use spreadsheets and database programs, as well as to research many topics on the Internet. Since students are competing for good grades, those who have limited access to computers are at a great disadvantage. Furthermore, being able to do projects using the computer enhances the process of learning, giving students the opportunity to find information that without a computer would be much more difficult to find.

If there are more computers, students will also be able to complete their work more efficiently. No more will they have to wait in line, paper and disk in hand, while scanning the room for an empty chair and computer. No longer will they have to sit and wait while an outdated computer struggles to follow their commands. Having more new and faster computers available will enable students to finish their work more quickly.

The more computers are used in society the more colleges will depend on them as a tool of teaching and learning. Making computers more available to students facilitates their learning process by making the process easier, more interesting, more engaging, and in the process enhancing their quality of life

The purpose of the author in writing the passage is         .

       A.to describe the problems caused by lack of computers

       B.to explain why students are in great need of computers

       C.to tell us what benefits students can gain from computers

       D.to persuade the Dean to purchase more advanced computers

From the passage we can infer that          .

       A.present computers in the college cannot meet the demands of the students

       B.computers in the college will be updated to meet the student’s demands soon

       C.the college has the responsibility to help the students to prepare for their future

       D.it is also necessary to expand the college bookstore by using part of the donation

In paragraph 4, the author mainly wants to tell us that         .

       A.computers are beneficial to students’ academic success

       B.computers are helpful to student’s competition for success

       C.students find it convenient to do assignments by using computers

       D.students wish to use the money to buy more advanced computers

    Should students do the grading?

    The Supreme Court says the practice doesn’t violate(侵犯) a student’s right to privacy, but is it right for students to grade one another?

    Walter Potenza, California

    The Supreme Court was absolutely correct to say it’s OK for students to grade one another’s homework, quizzes, and tests: in fact, it’s a great idea.

    By grading one another’s papers and seeing the problems their classmates have, students double their exposure(暴露) to the troubles that they may meet on future exams and tests. Grading one another’s papers may be one of the best ways for students to reinforce within themselves the ways to master the most difficult parts of what they are learning.

    Teachers are underappreciated and underpaid for the number of hours they have to work to be able to teach really well. Grading all their students’ papers can take hours. Some of that time and energy can be saved by spending a few minutes in class, while providing an extremely valuable learning experience.

    I understand that some individuals are sensitive to their classmates seeing their work or grades. Any good teacher would be considerate of students who don’t want their classmates to grade their assignments.

    Winston Smith, North Carolina

    A girl moves back as her classmate announces her failing test grade and hands her the paper. The quiet classroom heats up.

    With the increase in student grading over the past few years, scenes like this have become a bitter reality in schools across the nation. Teachers and schools should not advocate student grading and public announcement of grades because it provides a violation of privacy for students and causes unfair judgments and treatment by their classmates.

    Since 1974, a law known as the Buckley Amendment has forbidden the release of education records in order to protect the privacy of students and their families. I strongly disagree with the Court’ s ruling that this law does not include student grading.

    I can think of no greater violation of privacy than the exposure of one’s personal information to a group of peers(同齡人). This can be very embarrassing. Releasing this sort of personal information should be avoided, especially by institutions that seek to provide a supportive environment during essential years of human development.

    1.The underlined word “reinforce” has the same meaning as “_________”.

    A. change     B. imagine     C. strengthen       D. create

    2.Walter Potenza suggests that ______________.

    A. teachers should set aside some time to grade students’ papers

    B. the Supreme Court should do more research on students grading

    C. teachers should guide students on how to grade homework

    D. teachers should be careful not to hurt those sensitive students

    3.By mentioning the example of a girl, Winston Smith wants to ____________.

    A. show her weak points

    B. criticize the student grader

    C. tell us she is not a good student

    D. present the negative effect of student grading

    4.What does Winston Smith seem to agree?

    A. Student grading is not related to families’ privacy.

    B. The Supreme Court should change its decision.

    C. The Buckley Amendment doesn’t apply to student grading.

    D. Student grading is OK, but not public announcement of grades.
