 What is the tallest gift received by the United States? Located in New York Harbor,the 152-foot Statue of Liberty was a gift of international friendship from the people of France to the people of the United States. An inspiration to millions of immigrants,this statue is a universal symbol of freedom,democracy,and diplomacy.

  The relationship between the United States and France began during America's quest for in?dependence from Great Britain in 1776. Benjamin Franklin was among those who served on the diplomatic front during the Revolutionary War. By living in Paris as the American ambassador,Benjamin cultivated a relationship with the French government and the French people. As a re?sult,French soldiers fought alongside the American colonists. Paris was the site for peace nego?tiations between the United States and Great Britain at the end of the war.

  In 1865,Edourd de Laboulaye of France developed the idea of creating a giant statue to honor the friendship and the commitment to liberty between France and the United States. He formed the French-American Union to raise money for this project. Joseph Pulitzer used the edi?torial pages of his newspaper to raise support in the United States for the fund. French sculptor Auguste Bartholdi and structural engineer Gustave Eiffel finished the project in Paris,and the French people presented it to the people of America on July 4,1884. The statue was then shipped across the Atlantic in 214 boxes broken into 350 individual separate pieces. The Statue of Liberty was dedicated on October 28,1886,and President Grover Cleveland accepted the statue on behalf of the American people.

  Ellis Island,which was the arrival point for European immigrants,is part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument. Between 1892 and 1924,more than 22 million passengers saw the Statue of Liberty as they passed through Ellis Island and the Port of New York. This landmark of freedom became a National Monument in 1924 and a major tourist attraction in the 20th cen?tury.

  The European beech on Central Park's Cherry Hill is 100 years old. It is a tree that is 1        by the tourists passing in horsedrawn carriages and only birds and 2        squirrels could love.

  "We want to 11        people's idea that New York has only skyscrapers and sidewalks," Parks Commissioner Adrian Benape said. "There are many 12        trees in New York."

  Andy Steele lives just a few blocks from the campus of Black Hills State University in Spearfish,S. D. ,so coming to class isn't the problem. But he doesn't like lectures much,isn't a morning person,and wants time during the day to repair motorcycles.

  So Steele,a fulltime senior business major,has been taking as many classes as he can from the South Dakota state system's online offerings. He gets better grades and learns more,he says,and insists he isn't missing out on the college experience.

"I still know a lot of people from my first two years living on campus,and I still meet a lot of people," he says. But now,he sets his own schedule.

  At least 2. 3 million people took some kinds of online courses in 2004,according to a recent survey by The Sloan Consortium,an online education group,and twothirds of colleges offering " face-to-face" courses also offer online ones. But what were once two distinct types of classes are looking more and more alike and often dipping into the same pool of students.

  At some schools,online courses originally intended for nontraditional students living far from campus have proved surprisingly popular with oncampus students. A recent study by South Dakota's Board of Regents found 42 percent of the students enrolled in its distance education courses weren't so distant,they were located on campus at the university that was hosting the online courses.

  Numbers vary depending on the policies (政策) of particular colleges,but other schools also have students mixing and matching online and "face-to-face" credits. Motives range from lifestyle to offering a job schedule to getting into highdemand courses.

  Washington State had about 325 oncampus undergraduates taking one or more distance courses last year. As many as 9,000 students took both distance and inperson classes at Arizona State last year.

"Business is really about providing options to their customers,and that's really what we want to do," said Sheila Aaker,extended services coordinator at Black Hills State.

(   ) 5. What's the main idea of the passage?

   A. More and more students prefer to stay at home,chatting on line.

   B. Online course is becoming the only way of learning.

   C. More and more students prefer classes on line.

   D. What does the online course really look like?

(   ) 6. The online course in some universities were first arranged for those         .

   A. who lived on the campus

   B. who lived far away from schools

   C. who had no money to go to school

   D. who were very interested in the computer

(   ) 7. The underlined part "two distinct types of classes" (in paragraph 4) probably refers to "         ”,

   A. face-to-face courses and online courses

   B. rich students and poor students

   C. colleges and universities

   D. students living away and students living nearby

(   ) 8. According to the passage,which of the following do you think is NOT true?

   A. There are some university students in Washington State taking at least one distance course last year.

   B. A recent study shows about two fifths students enrolled in its distanceeducation courses live not so far from campus.

   C. Andy Steele,living quite away from his university,has to get up early every morning.

   D. Steele,who is a business major,has the online course from the state system.
