John: I wonder if this is going to be an interesting class. Lily: Yeah. Me, too. So, what‘s your major?

John: Well, I‘ve been batting around the idea of going into business, but I haven‘t decided yet. And my dad keeps telling me I have to choose a major, but I‘m undeclared at the moment. Lily: Ah, that‘s what happened to me my freshman year. John: Oh, so what year are you in school?

Lily: I‘m a senior, and I only have to take 10 more credits to graduate. Yeah! John: Well. That must feel great to be almost finished with school.

Lily: You can say that again, but once I graduate, I have to start repaying a student loan, so I‘m not looking forward to that.

John: But didn‘t your parents help you out with your college tuition?

Lily: No. My dad said he wasn‘t made of money, so he thought I should earn my own education, so I worked like crazy in the summer and part-time during the school year to cover most of my costs.

John: Well, you know, at least you see the light at the end of the tunnel. Lily: That‘s true.

John: Yeah. Well, um . . . , nice talking with you. I have . . . I have to go. Lily: Same here. Bye.

W: Hi, honey, you are sitting here long, thinking, for what?

M: You know, in the digital age, getting students into classrooms is really hard. W: Oh, really?!

M: They also use phones and laptops to search for information even during class. W: Anyway they are good for still attending your class!

M: Not yet, they consider it a trifle thing to skip classes. I‘m just thinking how to lure them to

attend class. Any ideas？

W: How about rewarding students with food if they are sitting in the first row of your course? I

always do this for our naughty son.

M: Sounds good, but they busy themselves with their cell phones and keep their heads down until

they hear something interesting.

W: A teacher is not the boss. Give them permission with phones. They might hesitate to participate

in class discussions, but what if they could send a message instead of speaking out loud? M: En, maybe you are right, they will feel relaxed if they don‘t like standing up and getting

The number of students from China studying at universities across the United States has increased dramatically. Los Angeles county has one of the largest Chinese student populations in the U.S.—totaling more than 4,000 students.

At the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, it is not difficult to spot students from China. They gather regularly for social events, such as Mid-Autumn festival.

Ferdinando Guerra, an economist with the Los Angeles County Economic Development Corporation, said the number of Chinese students studying in the United States has almost tripled in the past decade, and has almost quadrupled since 1995.

The main reason for the dramatic increase is the growth of the Chinese economy. There are a lot of Chinese entrepreneurs, businessmen of all sorts, business leaders, who are simply wealthier today, and they can afford to send their sons and daughters abroad.

In addition, the number of undergraduate students from China in the United States has doubled during the past two years, said University of Southern California‘s Dean of Religious Life, Varun

Soni. He said that although Chinese students typically study engineering and the hard sciences, a new generation is starting to major in subjects such as business, education, and film.

Most American colleges and universities take a spring break. Students might go home to their families or spend a week partying on a warm beach with no parents around. That is the popular image, at least.

In the United States, the legal age to drink alcohol is twenty-one—one of the highest in the world. Americans debate whether it should be lowered, or whether young drinkers would only drink more. In parts of Europe, the legal drinking age for beer, and sometimes hard liquor, is sixteen. Yet France may raise the age limit for beer and wine sales to eighteen, the same as for hard liquor there.

Rules on alcohol differ from college to college in the United States. Many schools require all first-year students to take an alcohol prevention and education program, often given online. Some have a ―zero tolerance‖ policy where alcohol is banned from all buildings. Parents are informed of violations and students may be suspended.

At the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, permission is needed to serve alcohol at any event on campus. But alcohol is banned in first-year dorms—where most students are under twenty-one anyway.

Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard. 33. How do students in most American colleges spend their spring break? 34. What is the legal age to drink alcohol in the United States? 35. Which one of the following statements is true?
