第一篇 人文篇Passage 7
Passage 7建议用时：8。5分钟From：To：
Today； there are many avenues open to those who wish to continue their education。 However； nearly all require some break in one’s career in order to attend school full time。
『Part time education； that is； attending school at night or for one weekend a month； tends to drag the process out over time and puts the completion of a degree program out of reach of many people。 』①Additionally； such programs require a fixed time commitment which can also impact negatively on one’s career and family time。
Of the many approaches to teaching and learning； however； perhaps the most flexible and accommodating is that called distance learning。 Distance learning is an educational method which allows the students the flexibility to study at his or her own pace to achieve the academic goals which are so necessary in today’s world。 The time required to study may be set aside at the student’s convenience with due regard to all life’s other requirements。 Additionally； the student may enroll in distance learning courses from virtually any place in the world； while continuing to pursue their chosen career。 『Tutorial assistance may be available via regular airmail； telephone； facsimile machine； teleconferencing and over the Internet。』②
Good distance learning programs are characterized by the inclusion of a subject evaluation tool with every subject。 This precludes the requirement for a student to travel away from home to take a test。 Another characteristic of a good distance learning program is the equivalence of the distance learning course with the same subject materials as those students taking the course on the home campus。 The resultant diploma or degree should also be the same whether distance learning or on…campus study is employed。 The individuality of the professor/student relationship is another characteristic of a good distance learning program。 In the final analysis； a good distance learning program has a place not only for the individual student but also the corporation or business that wants to work in partnership with their employees for the educational benefit； professional development； and business growth of the organization。 Sponsoring distance learning programs for their employees gives the business the advantage of retaining career…minded people while contributing to their personal and professional growth through education。

长难句解析

2。D细节题。文章提到的优缺点是几种教育方式之间的比较，问题问及哪个选项的内容不是远程教育的优点。前三个选项，A。“学生可以选择自己的进度”，B。“学生可以在他（或她）方便的时候学习”，C。“在学习的同时还可以追求自己的事业”都是文章中提及的与另两种方式比较的优点。在文章第二段最后，作者指出Tutorial assistance may be available via regular airmail； telephone； facsimile machine； teleconferencing and over the Internet。 辅导可以通过�
