But these popular schools are not well understood outside the United States. What are community colleges? Why should international students take a closer look at them? Community colleges have also been called "two-year" colleges or "junior" colleges, but the preferable name is "community college". These institutions, found throughout the United States, primarily serve local communities. Unlike the four-year, bachelor's degree-granting colleges and universities, community colleges usually do not have dormitories (宿舍). They are "commuter schools" often located close to expressways (高速公路) and public transportation routes so that students can reach the campus easily from the nearby areas.Community colleges, therefore, are very busy places. Manyeither before or after their work hours, in the evening, or evenon weekends. Many community colleges are open from earlyin the morning till late at night. Because they are usually paidfor by the state or local tax money, their doors are open to allstudents. Everyone living in the area served by the communitycollege is welcome to attend.Because they serve so many people with so many differenteducational needs, community colleges offer many differentkinds of programs. Thus, there are several programs thatmight be of interest to international students.Community Colleges offer:•University-transfer (转校) programs;•Technical programs;•Job-training programs;•Basic-skills programs;•Special-interest programs.International students would probably be most interested inthe first program on the list: university-transfer programs.Community colleges offer the first two years of a normalattend a community college can prepare themselves totransfer to a four-year institution by completing the beginningcourses of a program at the community college instead of at auniversity. After two years, students can apply for a four-yearcollege or university to complete their degree. International students may also be interested in the technical programs or job-training programs at community colleges. For example, many community colleges have certificate (证书) programs in fields such as air conditioning, car technology, building and construction, business, medical technology, police and fire department training, child and family studies, and many other areas with promising careers.Community colleges also provide basic skills courses forstudents who need help with reading, writing or math. Thesestudents may need special preparation for their jobs or tocontinue their education.Many people enroll in special-interest classes. These classesmay be for recreation or hobbies, such as sports, dancing,music, or art. Community colleges, by definition, serve theneed.Community college education is available to adults of any ageand background. As a result, community colleges have aunique place in the educational system of the United States.These quality institutions are the fastest growing segment ofAmerican higher education and now enroll more studentsthan any other kind of institution. Community colleges makehigh-quality education convenient and cheap to virtuallyeveryone.Admission to Community CollegesFor international students coming to the United States,community colleges offer excellent educational opportunities.Community colleges usually have an easy, open-admissionprocess. Generally, for successful admission to a communitycollege, an international student needs to have evidence ofhigh school completion, English proficiency (精通), andenough finances for the stay in the United States.Cost of Community Collegescolleges and universities. Students can save money during thefirst two years of their studies. Then, they can transfer to anyfour-year institution to complete the final two years of abachelor's degree. Community colleges are fully-accredited(官方认可的). Credits earned at a community college canusually be transferred to any other institution.Learning at a Community CollegeStudents will find a supportive learning environment atcommunity colleges. Sometimes classes are smaller, andstudents can benefit from more individual attention from theprofessors.Community colleges also offer international students a clearerview of the American society. Although some of the traditionalfeatures of a college campus—such as dormitories—aremissing, there are a variety of other aspects of the communitycollege environment that make it very special. Communitycolleges are in the business of helping people of all ages andbackgrounds—including international students—realize theireducational dreams.One of the great strengths of the American higher educational system is the ease with which students can transfer from one college or university to another. It is not unusual, for example, for a student attending a small private college to transfer to a large, comprehensive public university.Importance of AccreditationAlthough the higher educational system in the US makes transferring easy, there are some points to keep in mind if you are considering a transfer. Please note that the following comments only concern transfers from one accredited institution to another within the United States. Transfers from or to institutions that are not accredited is not recommended. If a student attends an institution that lacks accreditation, there is a risk that the courses completed will not transfer to an accredited institution. Always check the accreditation of the institution you plan to attend and also check if the program of study or major that you have chosen is accredited by aprofessional organization.Many colleges and universities have arrangements known as "Articulation (明晰) Agreements" with other institutions. These agreements allow students to transfer from one institution to the other as part of a program of study. Generally speaking, such agreements allow easy transfer with little or no loss of credit and time. For example, engineering students may study for three years at the undergraduate level at one college, then transfer to another college for two more years and receive both a bachelor's and a master's degree at the end of the five year program of study. Sometimes such programs are known as "3+2 programs" because they are designed to be completed in a total of five years.Community colleges often have articulation agreements with four-year colleges and universities. Many states have similar mechanisms for transferring credits.Many private colleges and universities that are located near community colleges also have detailed lists of how and what courses will transfer.If you plan ahead, a transfer can be an excellent way toaccomplish your educational goals and enrich your experience with higher education in America.1.The passage gives an introduction to community collegesin the United States.A.

In 1913, the United States government introduced a bold, new nickel. James Earle Fraser said his goal was to design a coin that would be "truly American." In his search for symbols, he found none more distinctive than the American buffalo. Choosing to show a Native American on the other side of the coin, Fraser said the new nickel had "perfect unity of theme." Production of "Buffalo" or "Indian Head" nickels began in February 1913. A single coining press at the Philadelphia Mint (造币厂) started turning out the nickels at the rate of 120 a minute. But after the first examples were introduced, The New York Times said they were "bad."Other critics said that the coin's "rough" surfaces would encourage counterfeiters (造假币的人). But the most serious complaint about the nickel had to do with its inability to stand heavy use. One coin collectors' magazine predicted that the slightest wear would remove the date and the words FiveCents "beyond understanding."In 1938, the Government staged a competition for a new nickel picturing Thomas Jefferson. According to a news item of the day, the Department of Indian Affairs didn't receive a single complaint from Native Americans about the design change. Collectors didn't seem to mind either.1.In the eyes of Fraser, a __________ is the most distinctive.A. nickelB. buffaloC. Native AmericanD. unity of theme2.In the second sentence, Paragraph 2, the word "press"means ________.A. publicationB. newspaperC. machineD. the act of pushing down3.The design of a buffalo was modified ________.A. because it was not able to stand heavy useB. because the words Five Cents were "beyondC. because the coin couldn't be pressed by theD. because the words were too high on the coin4.According to one collectors' magazine using a NativeAmerican and a buffalo was ________.A. a good ideaB. a bad ideaC. a perfect ideaD. a forced idea5.It seemed that the new nickel picturing Thomas Jefferson________.A. won much praise from collectorsB. caused strong protests from American IndiansC. was OK both to the collectors and American IndiansD. was praised both by the collectors and AmericanQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog.Time passed and my cards sold well. My enthusiasm for the greeting card business grew quickly. All along, I had been drawing fantasy art: monsters, dragons, castles, etc. With the birth of my first son in 1980, the content of my work went through a pretty dramatic change.Fantasy went out of the window, and I began to illustrate reality.In the spring of 1983, we, The Mary Engelbreit Greeting Card Company, took our 12 little designs to New York to exhibit them at a national card show.I remember how big the show was. I just couldn't get over it. I had no idea there were so many different card companies. And it was exciting because our 12 little cards were getting a lot of attention in that huge place!I've been told one of the reasons we had so much success at that show is because my card style was different than anythingelse at the market. I typically draw complicated details and usedeep colors and funny or meaningful quotations.By 1985, many greeting card publishers started noticing my art, and two of them approached me with licensing contracts.I have always believed if you choose a job you love, you'll never work a day in your life. If you ask about the mystery of my success, all I can say is this: to imagine is everything!6.Before the birth of her first son, Mary Engelbreit's cardsfocused on ________.A. realityB. daily lifeC. fantasyD. dragons7.The New York show was so big that Engelbreit ________.A. couldn't walk through itB. couldn't believe itC. couldn't stay to the end of itD. couldn't understand it8.Engelbreit's cards were successful because ________.A. they were distinctive in styleB. they had a thank-you sentenceC. they had complicated detailsD. they were rich in color9.

Many of them died ofscurvy (坏血病), a blood disease which causes swollen gums,livid (铅色的) white spots on the flesh and general exhaustion.On one occasion, in 1535, an English ship arrived inNewfoundland with its crew seriously ill. The men's lives weresaved by Iroquois Indians (易洛魁印第安人) who gave themvegetable leaves to eat. Gradually it came to be realized thatscurvy was caused by something lacking in the sailors' diet.Captain Cook, on his long voyages of discovery to Australiaand New Zealand, established the fact that scurvy could bewarded off by the giving fresh fruit to the sailors. Nowadays it is understood that a diet which contains nothing harmful may yet result in serious diseases if certain important elements are missing. These elements are called "vitamins". Quite a number of such substances are known and they are given letters to identify them, A, B, C, D, and so on. Different diseases are associated with a lack of particular vitamins. Even a slight lack of Vitamin C, for example, the vitamin most plentiful in fresh fruit and vegetables, is thought to increaseour chances of catching colds.The vitamins necessary for a healthy body are normally supplied by a good mixed diet, including a variety of fruit and green vegetables. It is only when people try to live on a very restricted diet, say, during the extended periods of religious fasting (斋戒), or when trying to lose weight, that it is necessary to supply the missing vitamins.11.Which of the following happens because of scurvy?A. People become hungry.B. People lose blood.C. People become livid.D. People feel pain in their gums.12.How would the sailors ward off scurvy on long trips?A. They took fresh fruit with them.B. They stopped in places to relax.C. They often found Indians to help.D.

It is home to 58 million people. It's about twice the size ofChina's Shanxi Province.Why does this not-too-big country attract people from all over the world?To 14-year-old Zhi Rui in Beijing, Italy is a country with a long history, special beauty and taste."I would like to visit Rome and boat in the moonlight in Venice. Would the pasta ( 意大利) and pizza there taste the same as what I have in Beijing?"Rome, in the west of the county, is the biggest city in Italy. The city is like a great museum, open to all. It has a history of more than 2,700 years. Historical sites are everywhere,such as the Colosseum (Arena of Death) (竞技场), and Pantheon (万神殿), to name just two.Venice, a city on water, is one of the wonders of the country. This city in the north-east of Italy is built on more than 110 islands. Seawater is everywhere in and around the city.

When the explorers (探险者) landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. They expressed their surprise to the "moon people" they met. In mm, the "moon people" expressed their surprise. "Why are you travelling to outer space when you don't even use your inner space?" they asked.H. G. Wells could only imagine the travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the "moon people" asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.Underground systems (体系) are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The "Chunnel", a tunnel connecting England and France, is now completed.But what about underground cities? Japan's Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground systems, called "Alice Cities". The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping and so on. A solar dome (太阳能穹顶) would cover the whole city.Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is agood way to use the earth's space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness. H. G. Wells's "moon people" would agree. Would you?( ) 6 The explorers in H. G.

The Internet search engine Google has turned its founders from students to multibillionaires. Tonight, The Money Program does its own research on this extraordinary money-making machine and finds out how it's changed the lives of countless millions of people who now inhabit "the World According to Google".And these are the guys who made it all possible. Google's founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, still in their early 30s, and each worth an estimated 6 billion pounds. Theirs is a dramatic tale which began 10 years ago when Larry and Sergey were both brilliant computer science students. The two met on a day out from Sergey's university. Sergey was acting as a tour guide for some prospective students and Larry was in the group. Larry and Sergey developed a piece of software which they believed could revolutionize searching the Internet. Larry and Sergey always believed their system was a winner. Lunchtime hockey in the car park was all part of how Google was gonna be different.It's a revolution, and you know, like the Industrial Revolution.Inside, the office was a playground of lava lamps and bouncy balls. Sergey himself created the Google logo, with its childlike colors, to remind users that Google wanted to be a force for good. In 2000, Larry and Sergey hit the jackpot and turned the corner from successful search engine to successful business. Their secret? A special system of advertising. So how does it work? Well, if you're trying to find out about, say, "Stonehenge", here's what you get. These are ordinary search results and over here is a list of ads. They're from companies who have picked "Stonehenge" as a key word which triggers their ad to appear. They are businesses who all think someone searching for"Stonehenge" might also be interested in them. And that was how a humble student project became the fastest growing and one of the most profitable companies ever.Speaking for communication8-6 Role-playingNote them downNote them down-11) C2) B3) A4) B5) CNote them down-21) B2) A3) B4) B5) A6) B7) A8) A9) B10) A8-7 PresentingGet ideas1) Footballers,footballers2) Fire fighters,fire fighters,Firefighters,firefighters3) Doctors,doctors4) Teachers,teachersOrganize ideas1) B2) C3) A4) E5) D6) F1) doctor2) People need special and extensive training to become doctors.3) They relieve our pain, cure our diseases, and save our lives.4) Their work is indispensable to everyone and they cannot be replaced by anyone else.5) footballer6) Footballers' work is to entertain some people.7) It doesn't add any real value to society.8) They make money simply by playing – it's not real work and it's so easy.More practice in listening8-8 More practice in listeningConversationsShort conversations1.
