COMPUTER SKILLS YOU DO NOT HAVE?
The Professional Career Training Center (PCTC) at Wisconsin University can help you learn the skills you need to succeed in the computer software industry. We offer the training you need to advance in your career. We have enabled thousands of adult learners to enhance their career options by teaching them the latest computer-related technologies.
The Professional Career Training Center offers:
state-of-the-art labs with cutting-edge software

superior instructors
Students are permitted to attend on a class-by-class basis, or they can enroll in a certificate program, which is an excellent way to improve proficiency in specific software applications. Those who enroll in a certificate program can join the Distance Learning Club by completing all obligatory courses within a year or less. A great benefit of the Distance Learning Club is that students needing to refresh their knowledge of previously-learned material may retake a course at no charge within a one-year period from the date of completion. Students are asked to indicate their decision to enroll in the Distance Learning Club at the time of course registration.

While the kinds of instruction offered in these programs will differ, DL usually signifies a course in which the instructors post syllabi (课程大纲), reading assignment, and schedules on Websites, and students send in their assignments by e-mail. Generally speaking, face-to-face communication with an instructor is minimized or eliminated altogether.
The attraction for students might at first seem obvious. Primarily, there's the convenience promised by courses on the Net: you can do the work, as they say, in your pajamas (睡衣). But figures indicate that the reduced effort results in a reduced commitment to the course. While dropout rate for all freshmen at American universities is around 20 percent, the rate for online students is 35 percent. Students themselves seem to understand the weaknesses inherent in the setup. In a survey conducted for eCornell, the DL division of Cornell University, less than a third of the respondents expected the quality of the online course to be as good as the classroom course.
Clearly, from the schools' perspective, there's a lot of money to be saved. Although some of the more ambitious programs require new investments in servers and networks to support collaborative software, most DL courses can run on existing or minimally upgraded (升级) systems. The more students who enroll in a course but don't come to campus, the more school saves on keeping the lights on in the classrooms, paying doorkeepers, and maintaining parking lots. And, while there's evidence that instructors must work harder to run a DL course for a variety of reasons, they won't be paid any more, and might well be paid less.
第62题:What do we learn from the first paragraph?
A.Children do find lots of fun in many mindless activites.

Passage Two Questions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.
By almost any measure, there is a boom in Internet-based instruction. In just a few years, 34 percent of American universities have begun offering some form. of distance learning (DL), and among the larger schools, it's close to 90 percent. If you doubt the popularity of the trend, you probably haven't heard of the University of Phoenix. It grants degrees entirely on the basis of online instruction. It enrolls 90,000 students, a statistic used to support its claim to be the largest private university in the country.

Unlike most sports, which evolved over time from street games, basketball was designed by one man to suit a particular purpose. The man was Dr. James Naismith, and his purpose was to invent a vigorous game that could be played indoors in the winter.
In 1891, Naismith was an instructor at a training school, which trained physical education instructors for the YMCAs. That year the school was trying 【B1】______ up with a physical activity that the men could enjoy 【B2】______ the football and baseball seasons. None of the standard indoor activities 【B3】______ their interest for long. Naismith was asked to solve the problem by the school.
He first tried to 【B4】______ some of the popular outdoor sports, but they were all too rough. The men were getting bruised from tackling each other and 【B5】______ hit with equipment. So, Naismith decided to invent a game that would incorporate the most common elements of outdoor team sports without having the real physical contact. Most popular sports used a ball.

His goals were two peach baskets, 【B9】______ to ten-foot-high balconies at each end of the gym. The basic 【B10】______ of the game was to throw the ball into the basket.

How to Determine a Topic for Research
Because you are going to put a lot of your time and energy into your research project(项目),the topic is especially important. In many instances your instructor may give a specific(特殊的)topic. If this is done, you have little choice, but most instructors will permit or even welcome a slightly changed focus(中心)in a topic if it is supported by good thinking.
In some of your classes, the instructor may present a suggested list of several topics from which you are to make a choice. If this is done, do not simply select the first idea that attracts your attention. It may be one with which you will soon become bored, or it may be one on which you would have difficulty finding all the necessary information. Looking at the topics, try to consider how you might go about developing each of them. When you find out what seems especially interesting and worthwhile(值得骄傲的),do a bit checking in the library to see if you can get the basic resources you will need.
Choosing a good research topic does not necessarily mean finding something that has a lot written about it. Many times you will have to research around a topic in order to find out the most useful information. Exciting and original topics often come to mind by combining two completely different interests. Let us say that you are interested in child psychology(心理学的)and in sports. Perhaps you can combine these into a study of the effect that is watching(可得到的)on the subject, you can research the topic individually and, by putting your information together, then draw a conclusion.
Choosing a topic for research is important in that you will put a great deal of time and energy into it.
A.Right
B.Wrong
C.Not mentioned
