Money Matters for Students
GETTING A GRANT（补助）
Who pays?
The Local Education Authority (LEA) for the area in which the student is living.
Who can get this money?
Anyone who gets a place on a first degree course, although a student who has already attended a course of advanced further education may not. Students must also have been resident in the UK for at least three years, which can exclude (排除) some students from overseas.
SPECIAL CASES
If a student has worked before going to college:
A student who is 26 or more before the course starts and who has worked for at least three of the previous six years will get extra money--￡155 a year if 26, increasing to a maximum of ￡615 at 29 or more.
If a student is handicapped (残疾的):
LEAs will give up to ￡500 to help meet extra expenses—such as buying a tape recorder for a blind student, extra heating or special food.
Banking:
Most of the big banks offer special services to students who open accounts (in the hope that they will stay with the bank when they become rich officials). A student won’t usually have to pay bank charges as long as the account stays in credit. Some banks allow students to overdraw by ￡100 or so, and still don’t make charges (though they do charge interest).

解析

试题分析：钱对学生们来说至关重要。谁来给他们的教育埋单哪？有什么条件的学生才可以得到资助呢？特殊情况还有哪些？让我们认认真真地读一读吧。
小题1:细节理解题。由“Students must also have been resident in the UK for at least three years, which can exclude (排除) some students from overseas.”可知这名日本学生不满足条件，因此不能得到资助。故选B。
小题2:细节理解题。由“A student who is 26 or more before the course starts and who has worked for at least three of the previous six years will get extra money--￡155 a year if 26, increasing to a maximum of ￡615 at 29 or more.”可知30岁的学生可以获得最多615镑的资助。故选B。
小题3:细节理解题。由“Most of the big banks offer special services to students who open accounts (in the hope that they will stay with the bank when they become rich officials). ”可知银行希望这些学生将来变得富有以便未来形成利益。选C最佳。
小题4:推理判断题。文章是一篇面向学生的广告，因此最应该出现在学校的公告栏里。A notice-board in a college大学公告栏； A dictionary一本辞典；A newspaper一份报纸；A banking office一家银行的办公室。故选A。
