19．The wind was blowingviolently （猛烈地）．

18．There are several ways from which to choose for you to keep your kids safe in your neighborhood．But the first step to keep your child safe in your neighborhood is to know your neighbors．
Knowing your neighbors can save you a lot of worry．It lets you know that the car that has just driven down the street belongs to"the yellow house on the corner"，or the truck that has just driven by the playground looks unfamiliar，but the guy in the passenger seat resides two doors down．It's these simple things that keep you from going out of your mind whenever you see someone driving by where children are playing．
But you shouldn't just know what they look like．The next step is to know them well．What do they do？How do they act？You might be OK with them driving by the playground since they live in the neighborhood，but are you OK with them being on the playground？Knowing your neighbors solves several things．First you find out what kind of people they are．This helps you know if you should let your child go out in an area where they gather．Let us face it：you do not want your child to play around people or people's children that curse （咒骂） or hit each other．Sometimes you have to protect your child against your own neighbors．
Knowing them also makes them know you．Being neighbors is an interesting thing．You might not like them or have the same views as them，but we all usually protect those that we consider our own．If you know your neighbors，they know you．They are more likely to look after the child of the nice lady down the street in the brick （砖） house，than the people，in the house on the corner，who no one ever sees．

12．Universities and colleges in the United States are trying new programs for international students to increase enrollment and income．Some universities are experimenting with bringing international high school students to their campuses．These programs permit students to complete their high school diploma while earning college credit at the same time．
One example of this model is at the University of Southern Maine，or USM．The program is called the"International Academy"．The school is expecting its first class of international high school students this fall．Joanna Evans is the director for the academy．The program is officially a"boarding school on a university campus"that serves 11th and 12th grade international high school students only．
The students will take classes at the University of Southern Maine to complete their high school diploma．However，because the classes are university-level，the students will receive college credit at the same time．
According to Evans，the students they recruit will have to be very strong．Their course schedule will be the same as taking only advanced-placement courses．The goal is that，by the time they complete their high school diploma at the academy，they will be ready to start college as a third-year college student．
Their English language skills also must be strong．The Academy looks for students with a minimum Test of English as a Foreign Language，or TOEFL score of 79，or a 6.5on the International English Testing System，or IELTS．However，there are classes available to provide additional English language training when the students arrive if they need it．
All incoming students at the academy are required to take a college writing class in their first term．If English is not their first language，they will take a class taught by teachers with a background in teaching students who speak English as a foreign language．
Although they are only high school students，the expectations are the same as college students．"Students need to be ready to take university classes，and that is the deal"Evans said．
