work at George Brown College in second year. Yet the college recognized only one of Evans" general-interest
credits(学分) from Ryerson, and also made him take English all over again although he had passed it at
university.
"So I spent time and money taking a course I had already taken before," complained Evans. "The system
really needs to change." Evans was part of a chorus of Ontario students on Monday cheering a new $ 73. 7
million five-year plan to help students switch from college to university, and from university to college.
After years of urging from students, the Ontario government set up a new Credit Transfer Innovation Fund
to help students move back and forth between the more hands-on courses of community college to the often
broader academic focus of a university degree. "We hear horror stories about students who can"t get recognition
from one institution for a very similar course at another, and in one case I believe the same professor was
teaching them both," noted Milloy after announcing the new fund.
Individual colleges and universities have decided on nearly 500 joint deals to honour each other"s credits in
certain courses. Each school is required to set targets for more credit-transfer agreements, and link these
increases to provincial funding.
More than 4,000 college graduates transfer (转换) to university in Ontarion every year-twice as many as
eight years ago, noted Justin Fox, president of the College Student Alliance. Yet Ontario universities and colleges
have been cautious about transferring credits, in part to avoid copying each other"s courses, noted Bonnie
Patterson, president of the Council of Ontario Universities, who welcomed the increased flexibility.
B. His previous credits were not all recognized.
C. He wasn"t able to get enough credits.
D. His English didn"t reach the required standard.
B. can switch between colleges and universities
C. get enough general-interest credits
D. have a wise choice of courses
B. the same professor can"t teach in different schools
C. students should focus on their chosen courses
D. the students" stories are horrible
B. keep their similar courses
C. prevent courses becoming similar
D. attract famous professors
B. He is very doubtful about it.
C. He thinks it is too flexible.
D. He supports it for its flexibility.

performance assessment by their boss, according to researchers at Baylor University in Waco, Texas.
The study finds that evaluations of honesty and modesty among employees may predict how their bosses
view job performance.
[2] "As honesty and modesty increase, manager evaluations of job performance increase," said Dr.
Wade Rowatt, one of the study"s lead authors. "The effect honesty and modesty have on job performance
goes above and beyond other personality qualities that might be related to good performance."
[3] Over a period of a year and a half, Rowatt and his team conducted online surveys of about 270
employees from 25 companies in the health care field. Participants in more than 20 states were asked to
self-report on their own character qualities. These results were then compared to performance reviews
completed by the employees" managers, who evaluated each worker according to 35 job skills. Employees
who self-reported high levels of honesty and modesty also received better job performance reviews by
their bosses.
[4] Rowatt acknowledges that honesty and modesty will not predict job performance in every field,
especially for jobs where a high level of self-promotion is necessary, such as sales roles or entertainers.
He said, however, that in many workplaces, employees who show ____ will be liked by their colleagues.
[5] "These are people who are trustworthy, down-to-earth, and easy to relate to," he told the Star.
"They probably get along with their managers and co-workers, and this is driving some of the better
performance evaluations."

will spend about ten months in U.S. homes. They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form
impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other
countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.
Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George"s
family. In turn, George"s son Mike spent a year in Fred"s home in America.
Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months" study, the language
began to come to him. The school was completely different from what he had expected-much harder.
Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six
that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.
Family life, too, was different. The father"s word was law, and all activities were around the family rather
than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.
"Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk,
but you soon learn to like it."
At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. "I suppose I should
criticize American schools," he says. "It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much.
In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your
schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two."
B. send students in America to travel in Germany
C. let students learn something about other countries
D. have teenagers learn new languages
B. German schools were harder than American schools
C. Americans and Germans were both friendly
D. there were more cars on the streets in America
B. there are a lot of outside activities
C. students usually take fourteen subjects in all
D. students go outside to enjoy themselves in a car
B. German schools trained students to be better citizens
C. American schools were not as good as German schools
D. the easy life in the American school was more helpful to students
it was even 1._____ than I had expected.
Located in the small city of Plattsburgh, PSU is 2.______ nice-looking school. Inside, the buildings have
signs to point you in the right direction if you don"t know 3.______ you are going.
The average class has 24 students. One thing I found interesting was that 4.______ you are a good note-
taker, the professor will pay you to photocopy (复印) your notes for the rest of the class.
PSU offers a lot of majors, including art, history, science 5.______ nursing. All of these programs are
especially designed 6.______ students to meet their future work needs. The school also has many academic
programs, including an honors program.
PSU has many clubs, ranging 7.______ dance clubs to sports clubs. This school has a great reputation

quality communicate 38 percent, and nonverbal (not using or involving words) cues (暗示) transmit a large
55 percent. That means people pick up more from nonverbal communication than from the words a person
says. When studying a foreign culture then, it just makes sense to pay attention to how people use nonverbal
cues.
Gestures consist of a major form of nonverbal communication. But often these gestures are culture-bound.
For example, when the Maoris of New Zealand stick out (伸出) their tongue at someone, it is a sign of respect.
When American schoolchildren make the same gesture, it means just the opposite. Also, Americans often
indicate "OK" with their thumb and fore-finger touching to form a circle. The same gesture means "money"
to the Japanese and "zero" to the French. For that reason, people in a foreign culture must use gestures with
caution.
Another part of nonverbal communication is the one that you might not think about-space. When someone
comes too close, he feels uncomfortable. When he knocks into someone, he feels obligated (有义务的) to
apologize. But the size of a person"s "comfort zone" varies, depending on his cultural or ethnic origin. For
example, in casual conversation, many Americans stand about four feet apart. People in Latin or Arabic cultures,
instead, stand very close to each other and touch each other often.
Considering the effects of nonverbal communication, we never really stop communicating. How we walk,
how we stand and how we use our hands all send a message to others. That"s why it"s possible to "read
someone like a book".

strengthen them in unique ways for different age groups, according to a new study.
The rapid spread of Facebook, which has more than 500 million users worldwide, has prompted concems
about its negative effects, but researchers at the University of Texas have reached a different conclusion.
"Our findings suggest that Facebook is not replacing face-to-face interactions between friends, family and
colleagues," said S. Craig Watkins, an associate professor of radio, TV and film who headed the research team.
"In fact, we believe there is sufficient evidence that the social media afford opportunities for new
expressions of friendship, intimacy and community."
The researchers questioned 900 college students and recent graduates about how and with whom they
interact on Facebook.
More than 60 percent of Facebook users said posting status updates was among the most popular activities,
followed by 60 percent who wrote comments on their profile and 49 percent who posted messages and
comments to friends.
The researchers also found that although about the same number of men and women use Facebook, they
do so in different ways.
"There is a noteworthy difference in aims in how to use a tool like Facebook. We found that for women
the content tends to be more affectionate, and they are especially interested in using it for connection," said
Watkins.
"For men, it"s more functional," he added.
Watkins pointed out that, for example, women are more likely to post pictures of social gatherings with
friends, while men are more likely to post pictures of hobbies, or post a political or pop-culture related link.
B. They think it has negative effects on personal ties.
C. They think it makes no difference to personal ties.
D. They think it has both good and bad effects on personal ties.
B. had
C. showed
D. produced
B. write comments on their profile
C. update their personal status
D. post messages and comments to friends
B. much more men use Facebook than women
C. men and women use a tool like Facebook for the same aim
D. Facebook is taking the place of face-to-face interactions between friends
