  Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:

  When I was studying at Yale, some phenomena puzzled me greatly. I found that Chinese students or Asian students were very polite in class while American students often interrupted the professor, asking questions and dominating the discussion. The Chinese students were not as aggressive as American students.

  I was impressed by the role of the professor in the seminar(讨论会). The professor didn’t act as an authority, giving final conclusions, but as a reseac her looking for answers to questions together with the students. One lingui stic(语言的) feature of his interacting with his students was that he used many modal(情态的) verbs—far more than I did in Beiwai. When answering questions, he usually said, “This is my personal opinion and it could be wrong.” or “You could be right, but you might find this point of view also interesting.”

  In China, authorities are always supposed to give wise decisions and correct di rections. Therefore, students always expect the professor to give an answer to th e question. I still remember how frustrated they were when foreign teachers did not provide such an answer. Their expectations from authorities are much higher than that of American students. Once the Chinese students got the answer, they w ere sure about it.

  Education in China is valued for united thinking. I remember American teachers who taught in our university complaining about the fact that Chinese students u niformly expressed the same idea in their English composition. The examinations in America usually do not test a student’s ability to memorize the material but his ability to analyze and solve problems. Education in America is valued not on ly as a means to obtain employment but as a process of enhancing critical thinking. 31.In the USA, when the students are in class, ____. A.a Chinese student tends to be very active B.an American student likes to make trouble C.a Chinese student likes to puzzle the teacher D.an American student tends to be vigorous

  32.A teacher in the USA prefers to ____ when he answers questions.

  A.be very sincere B.be very direct

  C.be very selfconfident D.be very indifferent

  33.What is the opinion of the author concerning the difference of teachin g methods between China and the USA?

  A.He thinks that Chinese teaching metods can make students learn more. 

  B.He holds that the major purpose of Chinese teaching methods is to impro ve students’ remembrance.

  C.He thinks that American teaching is abilityoriented. 

  D.He holds that American teachers hate to give a test.

  34.The author thinks that the relationship between the student and the te acher is ____.

  A.more intimate in China

  B.closer in China 

  C.looser in USA

  D.more harmonious in USA

  35.The education in USA may produce some ____ graduates. 

  A.talkative B.conventional 

  C.creative D.imaginative

  Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:

  Online courses (also called distance learning) are a hot new trend in American education. According to the nonprofit Distance Education and Training Council,about 400 US colleges and schools offer some portion of their programs on the We b. At the university level, they cost the same as traditional classes and requir e similar weekly assignments and textbook reading, the difference is in class pa rticipation.

  Generally speaking, students congregate(使聚集) online throughout each week to explore topic with the professor, but these discussions occur “asynchronousl y(不同时发生地)” rather than in real time. (You read others’ comments and post your own whenever you get a chance.) Written assignments are posted, you email in your work periodically, and you’re required to take a proctored exam in order to receive degree credit. Careerboosting business administration and information technology programs are the most popular, but you’ll also find a variety of literal arts offerings, from film theory to medieval history and foreign lang uage study. While you still can’t get an Ivy League degree online, a growing number of elite(卓越的) institutions, including Stanford and New York Univer sity are beginning to offer online courses.

  The benefits for busy people are obvious. “I always get a frontrow seat,” says one student studying at the State University of New York Learning Network. “I can get up in the middle of class, grab a cup of coffee. The class is waiting for me when I get back, and I haven’t missed a thing.” On the other hand, some students miss the facetoface interaction that often sparks interest and involvement. 36.Generally speaking, online education costs ____. A.more than the traditional one B.less than the traditional one C.as much as the traditional one D.the author hasn’t mentioned

  37.The major way to hand out assignments of online students is ____. 

  A.to hand out them in person 

  B.to post them

  C.to email in them

  D.to let the teacher enter into their personal main pages

  38.Which kind of program is probably NOT welcomed by most of the students? 

  A.Software development.

  B.Decoration and design. 

  C.International trade.

  D.Company management.

  39.The closest meaning of “Ivy League” (Par. 2) ____. 

  A.famous universities in USA

  B.famous business colleges in USA 

  C.famous companies in USA 

  D.universities with a long history 

  40.It is implied that in USA ____.

  A.online education will take the place of the traditional one soon 

  B.there are only a few online programs until now
