22、 Many youths want to lean how to drive cars. This year one sixth of undergraduates in Beijing have registered at driving school. The students, mostly from majors such as business management or imitational trade, will finish their driving courses within 20 days or so.
Training costs have dropped to 4, 500 yuan for students, according to the Haidian Driving School in Beijing. The price is not really low, but students will accept it, seeing it as an investment (投资) in their future. Familiarity with the operation of computers and fluent English are the basic skills graduating students need to find a job. But a driver s permit has become another factor (因素).
“In the job market, owning a driver’s permit sometimes strengthens a graduating student’s competitiveness for a good position,” says Li Hua, an undergraduate at the China University of Political Science and law.
Cars will become a necessary part of many people’s lives in the coming years, and it is difficult to get a permit out of campus because of the pressures on working people’s time. “Having a full-time job after graduation offers limited time to learn to drive. We senior students have plenty of spare time, plenty of oppurtunity to learn,” says another undergraduate at the university.
Wu Dong, an official at the driving school, said undergraduates were very able and serious, and could grasp in an hour what ordinary people took four hours to learn. In this driving school, middle-aged people, young women and college students are the main customers.
From March 1, 2018, to get a driver’s permit, a beginner is now required to have at least 86 hours’ practice before the final road test.
【1】Why do the undergraduates learn to drive?
A. They are the students from special subject or course.
B. They like to drive cars very much.
C. They want y become full time drivers after graduation.
D. They need this skill to find a good job in the future.
【2】What is Wu Dong’s opinion of students learning to drive?
A. It would make the life more interesting.
B. Youths would have an advantage in learning to drive.
C. It is a waste of money and time to learn to drive.
D. It would be better to learn it at college than at work.
【3】To get the permit, the student ________.
A. requires some time to practice before the final road test
B. must pay more money before the final road test
C. must practice more to learn to drive when having a job
D. requires to learn some more other subjects to drive
23、 Educators today are more and more often heard to say that computer literacy is absolutely necessary for college students. Many even argue that each incoming freshman should have his or her own microcomputer. What advantages do computers offer the college students?
Any student who has used a word processor will know one compelling reason to use a computer: to write papers. Although not all students feel comfortable composing on a word processor, most find revising and editing much easier on it. One can alter, insert, or delete just by pressing a few keys, thus eliminating the need to rewrite or re-type. Furthermore, since the revision process is less difficult, students are more likely to revise as often as is necessary to end up with the best paper possible. For these reasons, many freshman English courses require the use of a word processor.
Computers are also useful in the context of language courses, where they are used to drill students in basic skills. Software programs strengthen ESL(English as a Second Language ) instruction, as well as instruction in French, German, Spanish, and other languages. By using these programs on a regular basis, students can improve their skills in a language while proceeding at their own pace.
Science students take advantage of computers in many ways. Using computer graphic capabilities, for example, botany( 植物学) students can represent and analyze different plant growth patterns. Medical students can learn to interpret computerized images of internal body structures. Physics students can complete complex calculations far
more quickly than they could without the use of computer.
Similarly, business and accounting students find that computer spreadsheet programs are all but important to many aspects of their work, while students pursuing careers in graphic arts, marketing, and public relations find that knowledge of computer graphic is important. Education majors learn to develop grading systems using computers, while social science students use computers for analyzing and graphically displacing their research results.
It is no wonder, then, that educators support the purchase and use of microcomputers by students. A useful tool, the computer can help students learn. And that is, after all, the reason for going to college.

24、 Children at a hospital in Vienna recently enjoyed a wonderful surprise right outside their windows. Famous superheroes scaled (攀登) the building, arriving at the children’s windows to deliver warm hellos and smiles along with some impressive superhero muscle flexing.
It was a gift of love delivered from caped heroes on the outside to those young and isolated “heroes” who are inside hospital rooms. This special event happened at the St. Anna hospital on Monday, February 15 to coincide with International Childhood Cancer Day, according to The Jerusalem Post.
Members of WEGA, Austria’s special police force, dressed up as five much loved superheroes for the occasion, putting their strength, athleticism, and kindness into this most giving act. Superman, Batman, Thor, Iron Man, and Spider-Man joined forces outside the hospital for a most special team mission. They rappelled (绕绳下降) down from the roof in true superhero style, and stopped at each child’s window, surprising each patient, bringing laughter, and a thrill.
Many of the children behind those windows are seriously ill and have little interaction with the outside world, especially during times of lockdown. Receiving a special visit from a superhero can encourage a child’s imagination and offer incredible excitement and delight. It adds a depth of fun and playfulness to their world and can help them to dream big.
Below the hospital windows, a brass band played the classic superhero tunes, while other patients and nurses gathered outside to witness the scene. After the superheroes touched ground, there was time for some photos outside with the dynamic superheroes.
On this very important mission to fight loneliness, these caped superheroes offered incredible emotional support. Along with tears of joy, the event received much attention around the world, building more awareness of cancer care for children and teens.
As Spider-Man author Stan Lee wrote, “With great power comes great responsibility.” This famous Peter Parker principle was made on a cold winter day in Vienna, warming hearts around the world.
