Tim Wasem, an English teacher, says he's still getting his head around it. "I have students coming in this semester who are asking, like, 'When are we gonna do the podcast （播客）challenge? When's that gonna happen?' I didn't know the answers."
That's because a year ago, an unlikely team of 11th-graders at Elizabethton High School in east Tennessee won NPR's first-ever Student Podcast Challenge. Their 11-minute entry told the story of how the nearby town of Erwin is trying to rehabilitate （挽回）its image a century after hanging an elephant. They called their podcast"Murderous Mary & The RISE Of Erwin."
As the Student Podcast Challenge opens this month for its second year and as our new podcast about the contest launches on Monday, we've checked back in with last year's two grand-prize winners to see how the experience changed their learning and their lives.
Deanna Hull was a driving force behind "Murderous Mary". She says the experience gave a big lift to her "internal confidence as a student and just as a person in general”. Now a senior, Hull is making college plans, and she says winning the contest helped her see what she's truly capable of. "I'm typically very self-critical of my work. I can't really see what everyone else sees... But then when we found out we'd won, I was like, 'Whoa, OK. Hull admits that she and her classmates took a few weeks to find their footing. Wasem and a fellow teacher Alex Campbell assigned the teams themselves, often avoiding friend groups and forcing unlikely cooperation.
And Hull says that while she was proud of the finished project, she never imagined it could win. The podcast project not only helped Hull and her team but also changed the lives of some of their classmates who didn't win. "The most amazing thing that came from the podcast experience of that class is how many of them found their passion through this project," Campbell says, "and how this project helped them connect to people and learn how to tell someone else's story."
1.How did Tim Wasem feel about his students' questions?
A.He felt tired of them.
B.He was surprised at them.
C.He lacked confidence in them.
D.He had no idea of their answers.
2.What can we learn about "Murderous Mary & The RISE Of Erwin”？
A.It lost a chance to win last year.
B.It tells people elephants are friendly.
C.Its winning was beyond its makers' expectation.
D.It is about the history of the makers' hometown.
3.What did Deanna Hull mainly get from the winning?
A.Self-confidence.
B.Her passion for science.
C.Admission into a college.
D.A good knowledge of her disadvantages.
4.What can be the best title for the text?
A.Making a Podcast Enriched Students' Lives
B.What Can Make the Podcast Sound Better?
C.A Successful Way to the College： Podcast Challenge
D.More Problems to be Solved About Podcast Challenge

New Mexico has announced a plan to make public colleges and universities free for all people in the state, a Proposal considered one of the most ambitious attempts in education these years.
The plan, if approved, would allow students, regardless of household income, to attend any of the 29 states public colleges and universities. State officials estimate that the program, officially called the New Mexico Opportunity Scholarship, will help 55,000 students each year attend college.
Calling the plan “the moonshot for higher education,” New Mexico Gov. Michelle LujanGrisham announced it on Wednesday at the New Mexico Higher Education Summit in Albuquerque. “It means better enrollment (注册). It means better students' success. In the long run, it means economic growth, improved outcomes for New Mexico workers and thinkers and parents,” Lujan Grisham said, “It means a better trained workforce.”
Twenty other states have set up tuition free education programs for two-year community colleges. And New York created a scholarship program to allow students to go to public colleges and universities without paying tuition. But there are household income requirements and other rules, including that receivers live and work in New York for several years after graduating. The New Mexico proposal has no such restrictions. And some experts wonder if the lack of program regulations is one of its disadvantages.
Wil Del Pilar, the vice president for higher education at The Education Trust, said there is a risk that wealthier students will benefit the most in the program, since there are no income requirements. “When you have limited state dollars, I would argue that we should target those dollars toward those who struggle the most to pay,” Del Pilar told NPR.
Like the New York s scholarship program, New Mexico's covers just tuition, not other living costs. To Del Pilar that is a problem. He said the promise of free college takes more than eliminating (取消) tuition. Paying for housing, meals, books and transportation are still challenges for many low-income students, he said.
1.What's the purpose of the New Mexico plan?
A.To reform the system of education.
B.To improve the quality of education.
C.To attract more students around the world.
D.To make higher education more accessible.
2.What was Lujan Grisham’s attitude towards the New Mexico plan?
A.A little doubtful. B.A little confused.
C.Full of curiosity. D.Full of confidence.
3.Compared with the New Mexico plan, the New York program .
A.has fewer restrictions B.benefits more students
C.has more requirements D.covers more living costs
4.What is the problem with the New Mexico plan according to Del Pilar?
A.It is limited to tuition. B.It doesn't include tuition.
C.It opens to all college students. D.It's only available to poor students.
