The Cost of Higher Education

Individuals (个人) should pay for their higher education.

A university education is of huge and direct benefit to the individual. Graduates earn more than non-graduates. Meanwhile, social mobility is ever more dependent on having a degree. However, only some people have it. So the individual, not the taxpayers, should pay for it. There are pressing calls on the resources (资源) of the government. Using taxpayers' money to help a small number of people to earn high incomes in the future is not one of them.

Full government funding (资助) is not very good for universities. Adam Smith worked in a Scottish university whose teachers lived off student fees. He knew and looked down upon 18th-century Oxford, where the academics lived comfortably off the income received from the government. Guaranteed salaries, Smith argued, were the enemy of hard work; and when the academics were lazy and incompetent, the students were similarly lazy.

If students have to pay for their education, they not only work harder, but also demand more from their teachers. And their teachers have to keep them satisfied. If that means taking teaching seriously, and giving less time to their own research interests, that is surely something to celebrate.

Many people believe that higher education should be free because it is good for the economy (经济). Many graduates clearly do contribute to national wealth, but so do all the businesses that invest (投资) and create jobs. If you believe that the government should pay for higher education because graduates are economically productive, you should also believe that the government should pay part of business costs. Anyone promising to create jobs should receive a gift of capital from the government to invest. Therefore, it is the individual, not the government, who should pay for their university education.

68. The underlined word "them" in Paragraph 2 refers to

A. taxpayers

B. pressing calls

C. college graduates

D. government resources

正确答案：B

The 4th paragraph suggests that

A questions are often put to the more intelligent students.

B alphabetically disadvantaged students often escape form. class.

C teachers should pay attention to all of their students.

D students should be seated according to their eyesight.

正确答案：C

Spontaneous communication and free interaction are possible in any language only when teachers and their students have built up a warm, uninhibited, confident sympathetic relationship and when such a relationship also exists among the students themselves. In the first lessons no such state of affairs exists as yet. The teacher's efforts from the beginning should be devoted to building up such relationships through enjoyable, successful experiences in using interesting and amusing segments of language in a multiplicity of ways.

正确答案：自然交流和轻松的交流可能在任何语言下发生，前提是只有当老师们和他们的学生们建立一个温暖的、无拘束的、自信的表示赞同的关系。并且这种关系也同时存在于学生之中的时候。第一节课，这种条件还尚未存在，但从一开始，老师就应该通过愉快的成功的经验用各种各样的方法运用语言中有趣的和幽默的部分来致力于建设这样的关系。

2010年6月大学英语四级考试答案及解析作文参考(A) Nowadays, students attach less importance to the spelling of words in the process of English study. This phenomenon greatly influences students writing and brings on worries among teachers.There are possibly three reasons contributing to this phenomenon. First, exam-oriented education makes the students pay less attention to spelling. Second, some teachers should also be responsible for it because they dont emphasize the importance of spelling during teaching. Last but not least, some students are too lazy to recite words.Since spelling is one of the most important factors in English study, due attention should be given to it. As for me, I think, first, exams should be modified to add some factors into it, which would help students pay more attention to spelling. Then, schools should also set effective mechanisms to help teachers as well as the students to realize the importance. Finally, for students themselves, they can, through other ways, make them be interested in word spelling. Only by these can we surly realize the importance of spelling and make improvement.(B) What is hot for 2010 in our colleges? It is the spelling mistakes. Countless students lack due attention to spelling. Taking a look around, we can find examples too numerous to list, the one may be “challenge”. Freshman and sophomore almost write this word as “challenge”. How careless they are!Why such a phenomenon sweeps every university? Some experts attribute it to students inattention, because students always pay no attention to spelling. However, other experts argue, the teachers should be blamed for this situation. In my opinion, it is far beyond any reasonable doubt that both of them should exert themselves to change the spelling mistakes. As far as Im concerned, I firmly argue that we need to attach great importance to word-spelling. To the students, they should write English as much as they can. Meanwhile, to the teachers, the dictations should be reinforced in the class.快速阅读1.

正确答案：B

EDGEWOOD - Every morning at Dixie Heights High School, customers pour into a special experiment: the district’s first coffee shop run mostly by students with special learning needs. Well before classes start, students and teachers order Lattes, Cappuccinos and Hot Chocolates. Then, during the first period, teachers call in orders on their room phones, and students make deliveries. By closing time at 9.20 a.m., the shop usually sells 90 drinks. "Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good," Christy McKinley, a second year student, announced recently, after hanging up with the teacher. The shop is called the Dixie PIT, which stands for Power in Transition. Although some of the students are not disabled, many are, and the PIT helps them prepare for life after high school. They learn not only how to run a coffee shop but also how to deal with their affairs. They keep a timecard and receive paychecks, which they keep in check registers. Special-education teachers Kim Chevalier and Sue Casey introduced the Dixie PIT from a similar program at Kennesaw Mountain High School in Georgia. Not that it was easy. Chevalier's first problem to overcome was product-related. Should schools be selling coffee? What about sugar content? Kenton County Food Service Director Ginger Gray helped. She made sure all the drinks, which use non-fat milk, fell within nutrition (营养) guidelines. The whole school has joined in to help. Teachers agreed to give up their lounge (休息室) in the mornings. Art students painted the name of the shop on the wall. Business students designed the paychecks. The basketball team helped pay for cups.

59．What is the text mainly about?

A．A best-selling coffee.

B．A special educational program.

C．Government support for schools.

D．A new type of teacher-student relationship.

正确答案：B

Passage Four

Students all over the world have to work for their education. A college education in the United States is

expensive. The costs are so high that most families begin to save for their children's education when their children are babies. Even so, many young people cannot afford to pay the expenses of full-time college work. They do not have enough money to pay for school costs. Tuition for attending the university, books for classes, and living expenses are high. There are other expenses such as chemistry and biology lab fees and special student activity fees for such things as parking permits and football tic, kets. The cost of college education increases every year. However, classrooms are still crowded with students. Some American students have scholarships or other support, but many do not.

Students from other countries have money problems to overcome, too. Because students in most international programs need to have a sponsor, they work hard to earn scholarships or special loans. International students understand the value of going to school in another country. They also know that it is difficult. Yet just as Americans choose to attend American universities in spite of the difficulty, however, it is usually possible for students from abroad to work on university campuses to pay for some of the costs of their education. Some people believe that students value their education more if they work for it.

48. Tuition for attending the university in the United States is ______.

A. inexpensive

B. high

C. free from charge

D. costless

考题问答题The well-known phrase “honoring the teacher and respecting his teaching” has long been a part of Chinese tradition and culture. According to recent Global Teacher Status Index, teachers have the highest social status in China across the world. The following is a new report on people’s view on teaching profession. Read it carefully and write your response in about 300 words, in which you should:　　1. summarize briefly the public’s view on teaching profession nowadays;　　2. give your comment.　　Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.　　As Teacher’s Day is approaching, the China Youth Daily received 1,089 reader responses from a nationwide survey. Results indicated that the teaching profession is still a respectable occupation; 91.6 percent voted that they wanted the most outstanding people to be teachers.　　“The profession of teacher should be the most respectable occupation in our society. The group should consist of the most outstanding people, or our nation’s development will be affected,” a respondent stated in the poll.　　Asked about which kind of teachers are the most outstanding ones, some readers answered: “Not all talented teachers are outstanding in their fields. An excellent teacher ought to be first of all a person of high morals, since teachers educate young people.”　　Even more interesting, 76.3 percent of the respondents said that a teacher is someone who influenced them most. But people’s views toward what kind of teachers are good teachers have changed. Another survey this June showed that 31.6 percent of the people admired knowledgeable teachers, 67.6 percent liked teachers who made their classes easy and interesting, and 51.9 percent preferred teachers with a good sense of humor. In short, being knowledgeable is the first and most important aspect of being a teacher, and on this basis, students clearly prefer lively and witty teachers.　　The bad news: recent years have seen the rapid reduction of normal universities and colleges. Many have been upgraded to comprehensive universities by name changes and mergers. Education experts worry that this kind of development will harm teacher training because these courses were conducted in those types of universities or colleges.　　The good news: the latest government work report states that the country would provide free education for students attending teacher training universities. The policy has become a reality as a total of 11,000 students enrolled in six teacher-training universities bare now begun enjoying free education as of last week. These students began registration respectively at the six universities based in Beijing, Shanghai, Changchun, Wuhan, Xi’an and Chongqing on September 4th.　　73 percent of the readers who responded to the survey believed that the free education policy signals that the country is paying greater attention to education and teachers. 60.1 percent of the respondents said that the policy should be popularized and extended to more normal universities and colleges.　　Of those polled, the majority (55.6 percent) said that they wanted to be university or college teachers, because of the “high salary and low pressure, good working environment and non-fixed office hours.” “Some teachers even have their own research program.” 29.5 percent wanted to be middle school teachers, 13.4 percent wanted to be kindergarten teachers, and 8.2 percent say they didn’t want to teach at all.　　Some respondents said that the salary of rural teachers in central and western areas should be increased. If not, even those students who enjoy free education in normal universities and love the teaching jobs will still face the ultimate question: choose their dream job or find something better to make ends meet?正确答案：【参考范文】Even Teachers are Humans Needing Material Comfort The article above describes the dilemma of being a teacher in China The teaching profession, according to the survey did by China Youth Daily, is respected by the majority of Chinese people and the social expectation of teachers’ morality and knowledge remains high. Nevertheless, there is a worrisome trend that the number of teacher-training universities is decreasing and teachers’ salary is less than satisfactory. This mismatch is the very obstacle that prevents many young talents from the teaching profession. The fact soon catches the government’s attention and six universities are taking measures to help those potential teachers. From a student’s point of view, I know how important it is to have qualified teachers in my life and what a significant role the government should play in ensuring the teachers’ interests. Two pertinent rewards to teachers should be guaranteed: tangible and intangible. We can learn from the news coverage above that teachers are now well-respected and have gained social recognition, which represents the teachers’ high social status. As for the tangible rewards, the situation is far from being contented. Most teachers in rural areas are under-paid and lead a dismal life. They are suffering from poverty, but meanwhile, they are responsible for thousands of students’ morality, knowledge and personality. I strongly believe that teachers deserve favorable housing allowance or an annual increase of bonus. In conclusion, since teachers’ social value is widely recognized, they sure deserve better living conditions and higher salary. Without the fear of disturbance in the rear, the aspiring teachers can fully throw themselves into the teaching career.解析：【审题构思】　　文章给出的是一段新闻报道，主要就社会各界对教师职业的看法展开讨论，此篇报道主要可分为两方面的内容：根据《中国青年报》的调查反馈总结社会对教师行业的看法以及由师范院校数量的减少引发人们对于从事教师行业的思考，根据题目的要求，考生可采取以下的布局：　　第一段：从两方面概括报道对教师职业的看法，并提出个人见解，即政府有责任确保教师得到应得的回报。　　第二段：指出教师的回报可分为两部分：有形与无形。教师的无形回报（社会认可度）已实现，而有形回报（工资待遇）仍需改善。通过乡村教师的例子来证明该观点，并提出解决办法，如政府应补贴教师待遇以及通过绩效工资来增加教师收入。　　第三段：总结全文，重申要从有形回报和无形回报两方面加强教师职业的竞争力。

考题问答题Directions: Write a composition of no less than 140 words, giving your views about Intellectual Dishonesty. You should describe the phenomenon first and then give some reasons and possible measures to take.正确答案：Recently, the issue of intellectual dishonesty has gained much more attention and it has become a hot topic since some scandals have been exposed. Honesty is considered as one of the most cherished virtues. Anyone who wants to be successful cannot do so without this reputation. However, in the academic circle, the phenomenon of intellectual dishonesty shows a tendency to increase. The reasons accounted for this phenomenon can be explained as follows:Firstly, some professors rely on copying others’ works in order to get high reputation in their research fields. This can be achieved without too much hard work and it is comparatively easier.Secondly, there exists some kind of standard in such places as universities. Therefore, some people plagiarize in order to meet the standard as well as to get more money when they have the papers published. It is obvious that intellectual dishonesty has exerted harmful effects on our society and human civilization as a whole. To solve this problem, it is imperative for the government to enact laws to severely punish those who plagiarize.解析：暂无解析

考题 Text 1 From West Virginia to Arizona,public-school teachers are in revolt.They are demanding better pay,and they deserve it-so long as their salaries are tied to their performance.It's not that U.S.teachers are underpaid;the median income for the country's l million high-school teachers,for example,is more than 50 percent higher than that of the general population.But relative to peers with similar levels of education,teachers are falling behind.In 1994,public-school teachers made only 2 percent less than college graduates in other fields;by 2015,the gap was 17 percent.Cuts in state education budgets have made the problem WOfse.In more than half of the country,aftcr adjusting for inflation,average teacher salaries have declined since the start of the century.In West Virginia,where pay has dropped by 8.9 percent since 2000,teachers went on strike in late February,forcing Iawmakers to pass a 5 percent pay increase for the next school year,Teachers'unions in Arizona,Oklahoma and Kentucky plan similar walkouts if their demands aren't met.To avoid such an outcome-which hurts students the most-both sides need to compromise.Teachers shouldn't have to work second and third jobs to make ends meet,as many say they do,even in states with low are fiercely defended by teachers'uuions.But they reduce the funds available for other priorities-like encouraging teachers to relocate to rural and low-income districts and addressing shortages of teachers in STEM subjects.Across-the-board pay increases for teachers may go some way toward improving student performance,but not far enough.Despite opposition from unions,school districts in at least 30 states have introduced performance-based bonuses for teachers.In schools where teacher pay is tied to student performance,test scores have nsen by the equivalent of three additional weeks oflearning.Districts with merit pay are better able to hire strong entry-level candidates and prevent high-performing teachers from leaving.Intemational comparisons bear out a basic,if self-evident,truth:how well students perform depends on how well they're taught.The U.S.should pay its teachers more-and give the best ones incentives to show how much they're worth.22.The word"walkouts"（Para.3）most probably meansA.tactics.

考题问答题Some people believe that a college or university education should be available to all students. Others believe that higher education should be available only to good students. Which view do you agree with and why?正确答案：Most universities require the completion of a secondary, or high school education for admission. They also require proof of academic performance to guarantee that the student has the knowledge and skills needed to successfully complete their higher education. I believe that if a student has a poor academic record through their primary and secondary education,they should not be allowed to attend university. In the first place, a university education should be considered a privilege, not a right. A consistent effort must be made through the first two lower stages of a person’s education in order for them to earn the right to study in university. When I was in high school, I saw many students skip class regularly to shop, smoke drugs, or just because they “didn’t feel like” going to class. The obvious result was low grades. These students were all at least 17 or 18 years old, old enough to understand the value of their education. However, they did not value their secondary education and therefore,in my opinion, should not have the opportunity to study in university. In the second place, because education is cumulative, a student must work consistently through primary and secondary school to master facts and establish a foundation of knowledge in order to meet the demanding academic requirements of university courses. In primary and secondary school, students have the opportunity to develop their writing skills and analytical abilities, both essential to learn to cope with the challenges of higher learning. For students without the appropriate skills,success is unlikely. One university I attended published statistics showing a 50% dropout rate for first year students; the main reason listed was that the students were unprepared for the rigor of university life. In the third place, the limited educational resources at present in China make it almost impossible to provide every student with a college or university education. This means that students have to fight for their admission to the colleges and universities. As long as the present competition for higher education goes, it is not realistic to talk about letting every student have higher education. Competition for a successful walk through the single—plank bridge of college entrance examination is the most fair way to determine that privilege to higher education in China. Many people take their education for granted. In my high school, most people only needed to make a little effort to maintain an A or B average, but there were still many people who weren’t willing to make any effort at all. I am sure that these people without proven track records should not, have the privilege of attending university’ especially when higher education resources are not abundant.解析：文章引文段作者用I believe that…明确表明了论点，即初等和中等教育阶段成绩差的学生不应被大学录取。正文部分作者从三方面论证自己的观点：高等教育应该是特权，而不是权利；上大学应该具有足够的知识积累；中国的现状不允许给每个人都提供高等教育。在论据方面用到了逻辑推理、举例、列数字等方法。文章结尾部分简洁明了，与首段形成了照应。

考题问答题Part of the reform in university education is collecting tuition from students. University education used to be almost free, but since a few years ago, many universities have required their students to pay for their education, and mostly at very high price. What do you think is the result of this? Write a composition of about 400 words to explain some of the important consequences. You may discuss both positive and negative ones. The title has been provided for you.Results of Collecting Tuition　　In the first part of your writing you should present your thesis statement, and in the second part you should support the thesis statement with appropriate details. In the last part you should bring, what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.　　Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriateness. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.正确答案：Results of Collecting Tuition As a proverb goes, there is no free lunch in this world. But this did not apply to China's higher education in the past, as students virtually paid nothing for their study. With the economic booming and growing demand for talents, universities are required to admit more students, and are allowed to collect tuition from students as well. Viewing this policy more than a decade later, we may find that it has brought about quite mixed consequences. The first obvious consequence is that schools can offer better teaching resources. In the past, universities got their money from the government, but it was usually not much. Now with the large amount of money from students, most universities are spending generously on teaching facilities such as teaching and dormitory buildings, multimedia equipment, and on acquisition of more books and internet access for students and teachers. These have greatly improved the hardware and software of university education, and both schools and students may profit from it. Another important consequence is that students' motivation in study is enhanced. This may be unexpected, but easy to understand. When students enjoyed free education, they did not view it as a hard-earned opportunity, and many who disliked their majors simply idled away their stay on campus. But when students have to pay a lot for having their classes, they will liken idling as wasting their money, consequently most of them are studying hard. It is just like you won't throw away your dishes if you eat in a luxurious restaurant. A questionnaire given to juniors and seniors in 100 universities across the nation has also supported this explanation. However, this policy has also placed a heavy financial burden on students' parents. The average tuition for university students now is about 5000 yuan every year, which means that parents have to prepare about 20,000 yuan to cover the education of one child. This is too heavy a load for parents in rural areas as well underdeveloped cities. There have been reports that some parents committed suicide because they felt ashamed for not being able to provide their children's tuition. In general, collection tuition has brought about a quite complex picture. While helping schools improve their teaching resources and encouraging students to study harder, it also creates heavy financial burden for parents. Method must to be found to tap the advantages and resolve threats from the disadvantages. Only when both aspects are taken into consideration can the new policy bring real profit to university students and the whole society.解析：本题的话题是高校收学费带来的影响。文章引言段的开头使用了“天下没有免费的午餐”的谚语，很容易吸引读者注意。作者使用了过去与现在的对比，自然引出了话题。中心思想句写得简洁而又准确。正文段的衔接非常流畅，尤其是在第二段和第三段的衔接很成功，把读者的注意力从优点顺利地转移到了缺点上。结论段用了两句作总结，这样会比较全面。由于文章是谈正反两方面的结果，所以作者选用简单的建议作最终评论，同样非常流畅。

B.across-the-board pay. C.seniority salaries.

Give some suggestions as to how to solve the problem.正确答案：【参考范文】It Is a Good Idea for Poor Students to Live Separately Housing expense is a financial burden for poor students, and reducing the housing cost does help those who are poor. However, I don’t think letting poor students live separately in specially built houses is a good solution to the problem. Being poor doesn’t mean being inferior, nor does it mean they should be treated differently. Poor students also need respect and equality. Living separately in specially built houses can save them 700 yuan a year, but may add to their depression because an inferior label is placed on them. They may feel that they are different from other schoolmates and they may withdraw themselves into a circle of poor students. Even more seriously, they may develop a feeling of being discriminated against by their schoolmates, their university and the society, and may develop psychological problems. To solve the problem I think poor students should live together with other students. They can pay the housing fee with the money they earn from their part-time jobs. Student loan is another way to solve the problem. Universities can help poor students get loans from banks to aid the students in a respectful way.解析：暂无解析
