Question

閱讀下列短文，根據(jù)短中的信息完成文后表格。（每空一詞）

Hi, everyone! I will graduate from high school in June. Some of my foreign friends have asked me about the process of entering an American university(綜合性大學(xué)), so here I will tell you how it works.

First you have to choose which university you want to go to. This is not easy, as there are over 3,000 universities and colleges in the USA. Do you want to stay near home, or do you want to go far away? What do you want to study? Once you have decided what is important to you, I would suggest choosing about five schools to apply to (申請). This way, if one or two schools do not accept you, you still have a chance of being accepted by the others.

After you have chosen which schools you would like to apply to, you have to finish an application form for each one. You also need to ask two or three of your teachers to write letters to the universities explaining why you would be a good university student. For many people, the worst part of applying for university is taking tests. Depending on which college or university you want to go to, you have to take either the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT), which tests your language, math and writing skills, or the American College Test (ACT), which tests your knowledge in English, math, science and history.

After you have been accepted to a university, you need to be able to pay for your study there. To help students pay for their education, the government offers loans（貸款）which students do not have to repay until after they graduate. Scholarships（獎學(xué)金）are also available to students who have excellent grades, who are good players or who have financial（財政）needs. Because university tuition is so expensive, many students also work part-time while they are at university.

University courses are quite different from classes at high school. You only go to each class two or three times a week, you have to study a lot more outside of class. Classes are much bigger too and some can have as many as 200 students in them. There will be many new things to learn, but I think I will enjoy university.

【解析】

試題分析：這篇短文中作者對選擇大學(xué)給了我們一些實用的建議。首先要先決定好去哪所大學(xué)，最好多選擇幾個，每一所都要填申請表。被大學(xué)錄取后，要交學(xué)費，政府可以提供貸款，大學(xué)里也有獎學(xué)金；另外，大學(xué)里的課堂也不同于中學(xué)。

1.根據(jù)短文第二段的第一句話First you have to choose which university you want to go to.可知，首先要先選擇想去哪所大學(xué)。故這里應(yīng)該填choosing。

2.根據(jù)短文的第二段中This is not easy, as there are over 3,000 universities and colleges in the USA.可知，從3，000多所大學(xué)里選擇一個或兩個這是很不容易的。故這里填hard 或difficult，困難的。

3.】根據(jù)短文第二段最后I would suggest choosing about five schools to apply to (申請). This way, if one or two schools do not accept you, you still have a chance of being accepted by the others.可知，作者建議我們選擇五所學(xué)校，這樣如果一個或兩個學(xué)校沒有錄取你，你仍然有機會被別的學(xué)校錄取。這些話告訴我們這樣可以增加我們被錄取的機會，故填chance或possibility。

4.】根據(jù)短文第三段的內(nèi)容After you have chosen which schools you would like to apply to, you have to finish an application form for each one.可知，在你選擇了想去哪些學(xué)校之后，你必須完成每所學(xué)校的申請表。each one 每一個。故這里填each。

5.】根據(jù)短文第三段的后半部分可知，選擇好學(xué)校之后，根據(jù)不同學(xué)校的要求，你需要參加考試。take part in 是一個固定短文，意思是參加。

6.】根據(jù)短文第四段的開頭After you have been accepted to a university, you need to be able to pay for your study there.可知，在被大學(xué)錄取之后，你需要為你的學(xué)習(xí)交學(xué)費。故這里應(yīng)該是paying for education，交學(xué)費。

7.】根據(jù)短文第四段the government offers loans（貸款）which students do not have to repay until after they graduate.可知，為幫助學(xué)生讀書，政府會提供貸款，學(xué)生們可以到畢業(yè)之后再還。故這里填offered，這個過去分詞的形式做定語修飾the loans。

8.根據(jù)短文第四段中Scholarships（獎學(xué)金）are also available to students who have excellent grades,可知，對于成績優(yōu)異的學(xué)生可以提供獎學(xué)金。who 在這里引導(dǎo)的是一個定語從句，修飾先行詞students。

9.】根據(jù)短文第四段的最后一句話many students also work part-time while they are at university.可知，很多學(xué)生在讀大學(xué)的時候，都會找兼職的工作。故這里應(yīng)該是說找到兼職的工作，故填job或work。

10.】根據(jù)短文的最后一段Classes are much bigger too and some can have as many as 200 students in them.可知，在大學(xué)里班容量更大，一個班有多達200名學(xué)生。故這里應(yīng)該填number，the number of students 意思是學(xué)生的數(shù)量。

考點：任務(wù)型閱讀。
