     Andy Steele lives just a few blocks from the campus of Black Hills State University in Spearfish,
S.D., so commuting(經(jīng)常往返) to class isn't the problem. But he doesn't like lectures much, isn't a
morning person, and wants time during the day to restore motorcycles.
     So Steele, a full-time senior business major, has been taking as many classes as he can from the
South Dakota State system's online offerings. He gets better grades and learns more, he says, and
insists he isn't missing out on the college experience.
     "I still know a lot of people from my first two years living on campus, and I still meet a lot of people,"
he says. But now, he sets his own schedule.
    At least 2.3 million people took some kind of online courses, according to a recent survey by The
Sloan Consortium, an online education group, and two-thirds of colleges offering "face-to-face" courses
also offer online ones. But what were once two different types of classes are looking more and more
alike and often falling into the same pool of students.
    At some schools, online courses originally intended for non-traditional students living far from campus
have proved surprisingly popular with on-campus students. A recent study found 42 percent of the
students enrolled(登記) in its distance education courses were located on campus at the university that
was hosting the online courses.
     Numbers vary depending on the policies of particular colleges, but other schools also have students
mixing and matching online and "face-to-face" credits. Motives range from lifestyle to adapting a job
schedule to getting into high-demand courses.
    Washington State had about 325 on-campus undergraduates taking one or more distance courses last
year. As many as 9,000 students took both distance and in-person classes at Arizona State last year.
"Business is really about providing choices to their customers, and that's really what we want to do," said
Sheila Aaker, extended services coordinator (協(xié)調(diào)人) at Black Hills State.
     Many schools, such as Washington State and Arizona State, let departments and academic units
decide who can take an online course. They say students with legitimate academic needs-a conflict
with another class, a course they need to graduate that is full---often get permission, though they still must
take some key classes in person.
1. What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce Steele to us, who prefers online courses.
B. To tell us about the development of campus courses.
C. To show the differences between campus courses and online courses.
D. To show more on-campus students are taking online courses.
2. We can learn from the passage that Andy Steele _______.
A. lives far from the campus
B. knows none of his classmates
C. wants to have his own lifestyle
D. doesn't get good marks
3. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. The undergraduates attend the online courses for different purposes.
B. It is expected that distance education is popular with on-campus students.
C. About 325 on-campus undergraduates took online courses in Washington last year.
D. Different colleges have different policies about online courses.
4. From what Sheila Aaker said in the passage, we can tell _______.
A. business is the most popular major in universities
B. colleges should provide more majors for students
C. where the similarity between business and colleges lies
D. why colleges offer online courses to on-campus students

     A four-year-old boy has become pen pals with Britain's Queen Elizabeth. Tom Stancombe started exchanging
letters with the queen after he set free a balloon, carrying his name and address, at a school party and it landed
in the grounds of Windsor Castle.
     The queen spotted the balloon and asked her personal assistant, Angela Kelly, to write a letter on her behalf. 
     She wrote, "The queen was delighted to find that your balloon had traveled all the way to the gardens at
Windsor Castle."
     Tom, who proudly put the letter on his wall, wrote back to say that his great, great grandfather, the artist
Petrus Johannes Arundzen, had been commissioned (正式委托) to copy Dutch masters' on display at Windsor
Castle and Buckingham Palace.
     Angela at once replied that she would contact the Royal Collection to find out what had happened to the art
works. She kept her word and two weeks later wrote to Tom to tell him what had happened to the etchings,
explaining they now form part of the print collection in the Print Library.
     Angela then asked a favor of Tom, writing, "Would you be able to ask your Mummy and Daddy for me if
they know anything more about your great, great grandfather. Royal Collection would love to know more about
him."
     Along with his parents, Tom wrote back to fill in all the gaps about Petrus Johannes Arundzen.
     Although Tom's parents don't think there will be any more letters exchanged between the pair, they were
touched that she had taken time to contact them.
     Tom's father said, "I don't expect we'll get another one, but I think it's incredible they bothered replying at
all."

1. Windsor Castle is _____.
A. a playing ground
B. the queen's home
C. a post office
D. a rose garden

A. photos
B. cartoons

3. Tom's parents _____.
A. feel very much shocked about the letters and refuse to answer them
B. try to deal with the friendship naturally but refuse to do anything about it
C. don't take the matter very seriously
D. don't think this friendship will last long but somehow feel good

     When Meggy finished her double master's degrees, I can remember watching her get her diploma.
As her line moved forward to the side of the platform, she seemed to have more energy than she could
handle.
     Meggy was in the Shriner's Hospital for months when she was three, and went back for another
series of operations when she was four. When the doctors told her parents that she would never walk,
nobody told baby Meggy. She willingly did the foot exercises each day. Her face reflected much
concentration as she moved across the room, but when she reached her destination, she smiled.
     Her mother, with the same strong determination, would read The Little Engine That Could to
Meggy. I can still hear them repeat the words of the children's story, "I think I can! I think I can! I think
I can!" When the engine made it over the enormous hill with the toys for the children, Meggy would laugh
as she and her mother sang, "I thought I could! I thought I could! I thought I could!" With that same faith
and hope, Meggy learned to run, skip, play games, and ride a bike.
     The social and academic requirements of colleges and graduate schools were difficult for Meggy. As
she studied far into the night, she kept her eye on her goals, on the people she would help. She graduated
first in her class and continued her preparation for teaching in graduate school.
     As I heard her name being called to receive her master's diploma, I watched her walk
with grace and purpose toward the Dean. As she went down the stairs of the platform,
a bright smile broke forth, and I could just hear her thinking, "I thought I could!"

1. Meggy can be best described as a girl with       .
A. courage
B. humor
C. patience
D. determination

2. Her mother read The Little Engine That Could to Meggy to        .
A. inspire her
B. make her laugh
C. kill time with her
D. teach her to sing

3. The biggest challenge for Meggy was probably to       .
A. teach others
B. speak before many people
C. learn how to walk
D. find her goals in life

4. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Hope in life        
B. I thought I could

     Perhaps you have never heard of Katherine Lawes.Katherine was the wife of Lewis Lawes, warden (監(jiān)獄長) at Sing Sing Prison from 1920 to 1941.In these 21 years he made many reforms --- and
an important part of his success was due to his wife Katherine.
     Katherine took seriously the idea that the prisoners are human beings ,worthy of attention and respect .She regularly visited inside the walls of Sing Sing.She encouraged the prisoners, took things to them
and spent time listening to them.Most importantly, she cared about them.And as a result, they cared
deeply about her.
     Then one night in October of  1937,  news was "telegraphed" between the prison cells that Katherine
had been killed in an accident.The prisoners asked the warden to allow them to attend her funeral.He
agreed  to their strange  request and a few days later the south  gate of Sing  Sing swung slowly open.
Hundreds of men who had committed almost every crime imaginable marched slowly out of the prison,
later gathered again at the gate and returned to their cells.There were so many that they proceeded
unguarded.But no one tried to escape.If he had, the others might have killed him immediately.So
devoted were they to Katherine Lawes, the woman who daily walked into Hell to show the men a piece
of Heaven.
     Katherine' s strength was to see the men less as prisoners and more as individuals.Thomas Moore
once said, "We can only treat badly those things or people whose souls we show no respect for."
