18.Eco City Farms are becoming more popular in cities and towns around the United Stat es.
Eco City Farms in Edmonston,Maryland,is located near shopping centers,car repair shops and homes.The neighborhood is a working class community.People do not have very much money,and they have limited access to fresh food in markets.

International students can work 20hours a week while having classes; more during school breaks.You can work until you finish your studies.
International students normally cannot take a job that has nothing to do with their school.But the government may give permission if students are suddenly faced with difficulties.Examples include large medical bills,the shortage of financial (财政上的) aid or an unexpected change in the financial support.
Students must also meet other conditions (条件).They must have studied at their American school for at least one year.Students must ask for permission again after a year if they want to continue an off-campus (校外的) job.
International students who will be studying at graduate school can apply (申请) for some jobs before they come to the United States.A good example is a university job like a teaching or research assistant.
Some schools pay their assistants.Others provide free education in return.Many do both.Graduate assistants might teach,give tests,grade work,help with research and clean the offices.Many universities now provide language training for foreign teaching assistants to help them improve their English.Some schools ask foreign students to pass an English speaking test before they are allowed to teach.
International student offices at schools have to provide information on students each term for the Department of Homeland Security.Students who  violate visa (签证) rules-for example,by working off-campus without permission-could be sent home.
