If you are planning to study in the United States, you need to consider several factors. Everyone has different opinions about where is the best place to live in. Also, the best places to live in are not always home to the best schools. Finally, many schools specialize in different areas of study. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, for example, is a great school for computer science and technology-related fields of study. However, if you want to study oceanography（海洋学）, your interests may be better served by attending school in a place that is on a coastline or near the ocean.

Now I am sure that you know which schools are considered the best in the country. So I will tell you about which states I believe are the best to live in.

California is a nice state. Northern California specifically has very good weather. Los Angeles in southern California is another story, though. Life in LA is full of excitement and fast, and sometimes dangerous. As for me, I enjoyed the time I spent in Massachusetts, Virginia and Maryland and these states have a lot of history and culture. The weather is not as perfect as Northern California, but it is still quite nice. My favorite area of America is the Mid-west. Middle America, I think, is home to the true American sense of values. In addition, there are many good universities there.

Also, you need to think about your likes and dislikes and then research the various states. You like sunshine and hate snow? Then you probably won’t like the Midwest or even the Northeast. Open space, nature and peace? Then you probably should stay away from America’s large cities. Are you interested in government? Then Washington D. C. is the only place for you. Whatever you decide, put some thought into it. The place you live in could be the difference between a great study-abroad experience and a state of great suffering on earth.

1.What, according to the author, should be considered first if you want to study in the USA?

A.The climate     B. The scenery

C. The study condition     D. The living condition

2.What is California like?

A.California is the best place to live in.

B. California is the worst place to live in.

C. California is a state with the largest city.

D. California is a state with different climates.

3. If you study in Middle America, you can probably _______.

A.find the best universities

B. feel the real character of the nation

C. meet the most famous professors there

D. face more difficulties

4. What can we conclude from the text?

A.All American famous universities lie in nice places.

B. Los Angeles is the most dangerous city in the USA.

C. Washington D.C. is the political centre of the USA.

D. It is always raining in the Midwest of the USA.

Some of the most famous universities in America are urging students to consider the idea of putting off college for a year. It’s called a “gap year.” And while it’s been common and popular in Australia and the U.K. for decades, the concept is now starting to gain significant steam here in America.

Why? A growing number of high school seniors are tired of riding the academic conveyor belt from preschool all the way to university. They’re burnt out. Or not quite ready. Or they want to explore a few interests before deciding what to study in college, they’re volunteering in New Orleans or teaching in Thailand. They’re starting the great American novel, or working for a short time to help figure out what they want to do with their lives.

Understandably, that makes a lot of parents nervous. But a gap year does not mean that a student will remain degree-less forever. While there are no formal studies on the number of students who don’t finally go to college after the gap year, evidence from admissions officers across the country says very few actually leave college without finishing their courses. Taking a gap year can actually make kids more focused and ready for future academic life. In fact, Harvard University believes so much in the gap year that it encourages every student it admits to consider a year off before matriculation (入学).

The reason behind higher education’s support of the gap year is clear: Better-prepared students mean higher completion rates. And it’s completion that matters. Parents should remember that getting a kid into college is only half the battle. According to the College Board, three out of five students who enter a public four-year college don’t manage to obtain a degree within five years. And nearly 30 percent of all students who enter college don’t return after the gap year. Considering the fact that this year’s average price at a four-year private college is about $ 23,712 per year, it’s a pretty expensive place to play around.

1.Students want to take a gap year mainly because 　　　　 .

①they want to have an experience of foreign education

②they want to escape academic pressure for a while

③they want to read more books before college

④they are not completely prepared for college

⑤they can’t decide what to learn in college

A. ①③④　　 B. ①③⑤

C. ②③④　　 D. ②④⑤

2.What makes parents feel concerned about the gap year?

A. The high cost of the gap year.

B. The safety risks outside school.

C. Their kids dropping out of college

D. Their kids falling behind in their lessons.

3.Why do some universities encourage the gap year?

A. It means students will have enough money to pay for college.

B. It allows students to finish college in less than four years.

C. It gets students more involved in their studies.

D. It makes students develop a competitive spirit.

4.What is the author’s attitude towards the gap year?

A. Surprised.　　 B. Supportive.

C. Critical.　　 D. Doubtful.
