21、理解、完形填空題(共5道小題) 41. Online degree programs have come a long way since their early days. Traditional colleges and universities have developed distance learning programs to accommodate individuals who would not otherwise have the time or funds to earn an advanced degree. Online programs require the sa

22、me amount of study and work as a classroom program. If you are under the impression that courses offered online will be a walk in the park, think again! Online degree programs are often more difficult than traditional university programs due to the fact the work and study is left up to the student.

23、Time management skills are crucial, since there is not a particular time of the day set aside specifically for study. It may take some time to become accustomed to this method of scholarship, but the pros of online classes may outweigh the cons in your situation. The main difference between online d

24、egree programs and traditional higher education is the location of learning. Instead of being confined to a stuffy classroom filled with students, these online classes have a more personal feeling. While many students would be hesitant to speak one to one with a class instructor, online programs fin

25、d their students more willing to contact their professors via e-mail. This great participation encourages better understanding of the course material. Of course, not attending a class also comes with additional barriers. A student must be equipped with time management skills in order to succeed in a

26、n online class. Students that lack the proper time management skills may find themselves overwhelmed with course work at the end of the semester or falling behind in their studies. Whether you choose to attend a traditional college or university or enroll in an online higher education program, the c

27、hances of success are equal. In the end, it is up to you in order to complete the course of study and earn your degree. For busy individuals or students wishing to return to school without greatly affecting their everyday lives, an online degree program may be the best option. 共5題 (1)According to th

Successful and happy distance learners have a few characteristics in common. Compare yourself to the following list to determine whether or not online class

34、es are a good fit for your personality and habits. 1. Successful distance learners do just as well, if not better, without people looking over their shoulder. While some people need teachers to keep them motivated and on-task, distance learners are able to motivate themselves. They realize that they

35、 will never be face-to-face with the people who give them assignments and grade their work, but they dont need others to encourage them. The most successful students are self-motivated and set their own goals. 2. Successful distance learners never (or at least rarely) put off their assignments or wa

36、it until the last moment to write their papers. These students enjoy the freedom of working at their own pace and appreciate the ability to complete their work in as much time as it takes them, instead of waiting for an entire class. However, they understand that putting off their work too often can

37、 end up adding months, if not years, to their studies. 3. Successful distance learners have good reading comprehension skills. While most people learn by listening to lectures and taking notes, the majority of distance learners are expected to master material through reading alone. Although some dis

38、tance learning courses offer video recordings and audio clips, most programs require that students understand a large amount of information that is only available through written text. These students are able to comprehend texts at the college level without the direct guidance of a teacher. 4. Succe

If you want to stay young, sit down and have a good think. This is the research finding of a team of Japanes

46、e doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercise-and as a result, we are ageing unnecessarily soon. Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age

47、, and how the process of ageing could be slowed down. With a team of colleagues at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain volumes of a thousand people of different ages and varying occupations. Computer technology enabled the researchers to obtain precise measurements of the volume

48、of the front and side sections of the brain, which relate to intellect and emotion, and determine the human character. (The rear section of the brain, which controls functions like eating and breathing, does not contract with age, and one can continue living without intellectual or emotional faculti

49、es.) Contraction of front and side parts was observed in some subjects in their thirties, but it was still not evident in some sixty-and-seventy-year-olds. Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple remedy to the contraction normally associated with age-using the head. The findings sh

50、ow in general terms that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. Those least at risk, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White collar workers doing routine work in government offices are, however, as likely to have s

51、hrinking brains as the farm worker, bus driver and shop assistant. Matsuzawas findings show that thinking can prevent the brain from shrinking. Blood must circulate properly in the head to supply the fresh oxygen the brain cells need. “The best way to maintain good blood circulation is through using

52、 the brain,” he says. “Think hard and engage in conversation. Dont rely on pocket calculators.” 共5題 (1)The team of doctors wanted to find out _. 本題2分 (A) why certain people age sooner than others (B) how to make people live longer (C) the size of certain peoples brains (D) which people are most inte
