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 No longer will they have to sit and wait while an outdated computer struggles to follow their commands.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

            These days, Americans worry most about an economic recovery that President Obama calls "painfully slow". But on Saturday millions will remember the day al-Qaida terrorists flew airplanes into the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in Washington. Another hijacked plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania when passengers rebelled. Close to three thousand people died that day. Next year will be a big anniversary, ten years since the day Americans call 9-11.

                   But this September eleventh comes at an uneasy time. A large number of Americans say they oppose plans to build an Islamic center near the World Trade Center site in New York. This week attention centered on a Christian minister(基督教事工) with a small following in the state of Florida.

                   Reverend Terry Jones said he would mark the 9-11 anniversary by burning copies of the Quran(可蘭經(jīng)). He said he wanted to send a message to Islamic extremists. He said, "We are not hateful toward Muslims. We are not aiming this at Muslims, we are aiming this at Sharia law(伊斯蘭教教法)."

                   Political and religious leaders around the world had condemned him. The plan even led the State Department to warn American travelers to avoid places where protests(抗議) might take place.

                   President Obama said burning Qurans could endanger American troops and invite more extremism. Defense Secretary Robert Gates called Mr. Jones on Thursday to urge him to reconsider.

            Administration officials called the idea of burning Qurans "un-American." But they also agreed that it would be within constitutional rights, like protesters who burn American flags. The Constitution guarantees free speech and bars the government from restricting the practice of religion.

            According to this news article how many things made this September 11 uneasy? (No more than 1 word)

            What did the State Department think would happen after Reverend revealed his plan? (No more than 4 words)

            How did the government prevent the situation becoming worse? (No more than 9 words)

            Why couldn’t the US government forbid Reverend to burn Qurans? (No more than 7 words)

            CARDIFF, Wales Poets, singers and musicians from across the globe gathered in Wales to celebrate the tradition(傳統(tǒng)) of storytelling.

            “It might seem strange that people still want to listen in age of watching television, but this is an unusual art form whose time has come again,” said David Ambrose, director of Beyond the Border, an international storytelling festival(節(jié)) in Wales.

                “Some of the tales, like those the Inuit from Canada, are thousands years old. So our storytellers have come from distant lands to connect us with the distance of time,” he said early this month.

            Two Inuit women, both in their mid 60s, are among the few remaining who can do Kntadjait, or throat singing, which has few words and much sound. Their art is governed by the cold of their surroundings, forcing them to say little but listen attentively.

                Ambrose started the festival in 1993, after several years of working with those reviving (coming back into use or existence) storytelling in Wales.

                “It came out of a group of people who wanted to reconnect with traditions. and as all the Welsh are storytellers, it was in good hands here.” Ambrose said.

            C. how cold it has been where the Inuit live

            D. how difficult it is to understand the Inuit
