Greg Evans started to study film at Ryerson University, but had a change of heart and switched to social work at George Brown College in second year.Yet the college recognized only one of Evans' general-interest credits(学分) from Ryerson , and also made him take English all over again although he had passed it at university.
“So I spent time and money taking a course I had already taken before”, complained Evans."The system really needs to change." Evans was part of a chorus of Ontario students on Monday cheering a new $ 73.7 million five-year plan to help students switch from college to university, and from university to college.
After years' of urging from students, the Ontario government set up a new Credit Transfer Innovation loud to help students move back and forth between the more hands-on courses of community college to the often broader academic focus of a university degree." We hear horror stories about students who can't get recognition from one institution for a very similar course at another, and in one case I believe the same professor was teaching them both," noted Malloy after announcing the new fund.
Individual colleges and universities have decided on nearly 500 joint deals to honor each other's credits in certain courses.Each school is required to set targets for more credit-transfer agreements, and link these increases to provincial funding.
More than 4,000 college graduates transfer (转换) to university in Ontario every year twice as many as eight years ago, noted Justin Fox, president of the College Student Alliance.Yet Ontario universities and colleges have been cautious about transferring credits, in part to avoid copying each other's courses, noted Bonnie Patterson, president of the Council of Ontario Universities ,who welcomed the increased flexibility.
1.What happened when Greg Evans switched to social work at George Brown College?
A. He was considered to be unqualified for social work.

2.According to Paragraph 3, Malloy believes _____________
A. it is time that the system was changed
B. the same professor can't teach in different schools
C. students should focus on their chosen courses
D. the students' stories are horrible
3.Ontario universities and colleges have been cautious about transferring credits partly to _____________.
A. avoid accepting unqualified students
B. keep their similar courses
C. prevent courses becoming similar

D.He supports it for its flexibility

A four-year study of 200 college students found that those who drink heavily and started drinking at an early age demonstrate poor decision-making skills, just like long-term, chronic(长期的) alcoholics. Researchers at the University of Missouri-Columbia believe early onset binge drinking negatively affects psychological development.
The researches examined college students between the ages of 18 and 22. After three years, they tested them using the Iowa Gambling Test, which measures the tendency to make immediate (disadvantageous) or long-term (advantageous) choices.
Based on the students’ reported drinking habits, they were grouped into four categories: low binge drinkers, moderate binge drinkers, increasing binge drinkers and stable or high binge drinkers.
“Students in the stable or high alcohol use category, who had longer histories of binge drinking, made riskier and less advantageous choices, which reflect problems associated with planning for the future,” the researchers reported.
The study also found that only students who started binge drinking when they were younger showed impairment on the task.
“There is reason to think that heavy binge drinking during adolescence, when the brain is still rapidly developing, may have some negative legacy (遗传) on psychological development,” said Kenneth J. Sher of MU’s Midwest Alcoholism Research Center in a news release. “The interesting thing is that if we were to just look at binge drinkers and how impaired they are in the decision-making process as juniors, we’d really be obscuring(使模糊) the important issue, which is how long they’ve been binge drinkers and / or how early they started.”
1.What does the passage mainly tell us?
A.Four categories of heavy drinkers.
B.Heavy drinking affects college students.
C.Early onset binge drinkers are poor at decision-making.
D.People drinking at an early age will develop into binge drinkers.
2.Which category would make the most disadvantageous choice?
A.Low binge drinkers B.moderate binge drinkers
C.Increasing binge drinkers D.Stable binge drinkers
3.Early onset binge drinking negatively affects psychological development because _______.
A.adolescent students were not suitable for drinking
B.drinking too much will slow the growth of the brain
C.the brain has not fully developed during adolescence
D.drinking will make the students make dangerous choices
4.What Kenneth J. Sher says suggests that _______.
A.he is quite clear about what the important issue is
B.if binger drinkers started late, there would be no bad effect
C.the important issue is how impaired the students are in decision-making
D.only early binge drinkers will have their decision-making ability affected

When Veronika Scott was a student at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit, Michigan, she received a task to “design to fill a need.” She dreamed up an idea for overcoats that would double as sleeping bags, made 25 of them, and handed them out to people living in shelters on an abandoned city playground. While her efforts were greeted mostly with enthusiasm from those braving Detroit’s cold winters, one woman voiced dissatisfaction. “We don’t need coats; we need jobs,” she told Veronika. Then she had her second inspiration.
After graduating from college in 2012, Veronika founded the Empowerment Plan, a nonprofit organization. She hired two homeless women to sew the coats and paid them with donations she received through her blog. Now, the Empowerment Plan employs about 20 people and has produced more than 10,000 coats and distributed them in 30 states, Canada, and elsewhere abroad.
“We don’t require previous employment,” Veronika says. “We’re looking for people who are motivated.” The Empowerment Plan provides free classes and lends money to those who qualify. Nearly all the employees eventually move into permanent housing, and some go on to jobs in the auto industry and construction.
Veronika has bettered the coat’s design by making its outer layer of a lightweight material that resists air, wind, and water and its inner layer of a material that stores body heat. Still, Veronika is less focused on the coats than on the workers who make them. “At the end of the day,” she says, “the coat is a vehicle for us to employ people.”
1.What was Veronika’s second inspiration?
A. Improving her coat’s design.
B. Founding a nonprofit organization.
C. Profiting from the work of those low-paid people.
D. Producing more coats and distributing them abroad.
2.What is the purpose of the Empowerment Plan?
A. To raise more donations.
B. To design better clothes.
C. To provide help for the homeless.
D. To offer free classes to the motivated.
3.Which of the following best describes Veronika?
A. Traditional but helpful B. Greedy and unsatisfied.
C. Generous but childish. D. Creative and caring.
4.Which is the best title of the passage?
A. Design to Fill a Need. B. The Empowerment Plan.
C. Look for Motivated People. D. How to design a coat.

Choosing the right college can be challenging, but knowing where to start can be even more challenging. 1. Here are the tips I wish someone would have told me before I chose which college to attend.
First things first, you need to decide what you want to major in. This will be the most important part of the process, because it will determine what career you will choose after college. This decision is not the end, you can definitely change majors once you’re in college. 2.
Next, it’s time to decide if you want to stay close to your hometown or go away for college. Both options have their own pros and cons. These pros and cons can vary from money and how much financial aid the college will provide you, job success after graduation, opportunities the college offers such as study abroad or internships, to how many people attend the college. 3.
4. Would you mind living in the area surrounding the campus? Do they have a good program for your major? Does the college have big or small classes, which would you prefer? How is the college ranked? Does ranking matter to you? Is the campus big or small? Which would you prefer? Does the school feel like a good personal fit?
Make sure to also do research on alumni (校友), current students and professors who are present on the different campuses of the colleges you are inquiring about. It’s always good to do great research than none at all and pick a college you know nothing about and regret your decision in the end. And if this happens, you’ll end up transferring (转学) to another college, where you’ll definitely do your research to not have the same thing happen again. 5.
Now that you have all this newfound knowledge on how to choose a college, I hope you are ready to start the process! Good luck!
A. No worries, I am here to help you through the process.
B. There’s no excuse for not visiting the colleges in your local area.
C. Other things to consider when choosing a college are as follows.
D. You can register for its online college fair at campuslife.com.
E. These are all things to take into consideration when choosing a college.
F. But note that changing majors can affect how long it will take you to graduate.
G. So you might as well get all the research done now, and save yourself both time and money.

At 26, Jane Goodall had no college education or science training. But since childhood, she had been dreaming of working closely with animals in Africa. “All through my childhood people said you can’t go to Africa. You’re a girl.” Goodall said. “But my mother used to say, if you really want to, there’s nothing you can’t do.”
In 1957, the 26-year-old Goodall went to Kenya to work as a secretary. She also arranged to meet the famous scientist Louis Leakey, who was so impressed by her enthusiasm that he hired her as his assistant. She went with him on many trips to the African jungle and in 1960 Leakey sent Goodall to live among chimpanzees in a remote animal preserve, recording the animals’ behavior and interactions.
For three months Goodall made little progress. But she said, “I never came close to giving up.” Her breakthrough came one day when she saw a male chimpanzee stick a piece of grass into a termite (白蚁) hill, then put the grass in his mouth. Afterward she came to the hill and did the same. Pulling the grass out, she discovered dozens of termites on it. The discovery — that some animals use tools — was unknown to most scientists at the time.
Goodall saw chimpanzees exhibit human-like emotions, such as jealousy and love. But she also discovered they were capable of violent attacks against each other.
Goodall received her Ph.D. in the study of animal behavior at England’s Cambridge University. Now she travels around the globe raising money to preserve wildlife. “I love being in the forest with the chimpanzees,” she said. “I’d much rather be there than traveling around from city to city.”
1.What was Goodall’s childhood dream?
A. She dreamed of going to college.
B. She dreamed of studying animals in Africa.
C. She dreamed of becoming a famous scientist.
D. She dreamed of traveling all around the world.
2.What did Goodall’s mother think of her dream?
A. As a girl she should not go to the African jungle.
B. Her dream would remain a dream unless she got the right training.
C. As a girl she should stay away from violent animals.
D. She could make her dream come true if she was determined.
3.Goodall’s most important discovery is that ________.
A. some animals use tools
B. like humans animals have emotions
C. chimpanzees could attack each other violently
D. termites are chimpanzees’ favorite food
4.What is Goodall doing now?
A. Studying animal behavior at Cambridge University.
B. Raising funds for the preservation of wildlife.
C. Observing chimpanzees in African jungles.
D. Working hard for a PhD degree.
