12.Money Matters for StudentsGETTING A GRANT(补助)
Who pays?
The local education authority (LEA) for the area in which the student is living.
Who can get this money?
Anyone who gets a place on a first degree course,although a student who has already attended a course of advanced further education may not.Students must also have been living in the UK for at least three years,which can exclude (排除) some students from overseas.
SPECIAL CASES
If a student has worked before going to college:
A student who is 26or more before the course starts and who has worked for at least three of the previous six years will get extra money-£155a year if 26,increasing to a maximum(最大值) of£615at 29or more.
If a student has disabilities:
LEAs will give up to£500to help meet extra expenses-such as buying a tape recorder for a blind student,extra heating or special food.
Banking:
Most of the big banks offer special services to students who open accounts (in the hope that they will stay with the bank when they become rich officials).A student won't usually have to pay bank charges as long as the account stays in credit.Some banks allow students to overdraw by£100or so,and still don't make charges (though they do charge interest).

33.C事实细节题.从who has worked for at least three of the previous six years will get extra money-£155a year if 26,increasing to a maximum(最大值) of£615at 29or more.得知,有着6年工作经验的31岁的护士可以得到£615.故选C
34.B事实细节题.从LEAs will give up to£500 to help meet extra expenses-such as buying a tape recorder for a blind student,extra heating or special food得知一辆£750的轮椅自己只要付£250.因为LEAs会帮忙支付£500,故选B
35.C事实理解题.从最后一段in the hope that they will stay with the bank when they become rich officials银行方面希望,未来这些学生成为富豪之后还能在他们那里办理业务,他们是以后的潜在客户,由此得知答案应该是C.
