May the first is an important date in the college admission process in the United States.This is the last day for high school seniors to accept or reject offers of admission in the fall.But according to a recent report, there is a great change.Acceptance rates at the top colleges this year were lower than ever.    

These days, college applicants are applying to more colleges because online and common applications make the process easier.      On the other hand, deciding students for top colleges to accept can be difficult because it takes much time.Students may not like being put on waiting lists.Also, common colleges work more to get the students they accept to accept them.Some colleges hold visiting days that offer a chance to attend classes and stay overnight.Some universities send gifts.        

For many families, the most important thing colleges can do is show them the money, especially this year; the weak economy makes parents nervous.      The recent problems that spread from the housing market to credit markets have even affected student’s loans.So lately, top schools have to spare lots of money to increase their financial aid for students.

         The Education Department expects the number of high school graduates to start to go down.This will happen as the last of the children of the baby boom generation finish high school.The number is not expected to start rising again until 2015.

A.Besides, top colleges are facing changes in the population.

B.What contributes to it?

C.But a mistake can be costly if it happens.

D.But top colleges ignore them.

E.They have international students who know English.

F.It can mean several acceptances to choose from.

G.They cannot afford college as planned.

In some urban centers, workaholism is so common that people do not consider it unusual.They accept the lifestyle as normal.Government workers in Washington D.C., for example, frequently work sixty to seventy hours a week.They do this because they have to; they do it because they want to.

Workaholism can be a serious problem.Because true workaholics would rather work than do anything else, they probably don't know

how to relax; that is, they might not enjoy movies, sports, or other

types of entertainment.Most of all, they hate to sit and do nothing.The lives of workaholics are usually stressful, and this tension and worry can cause health problems such as heart attacks or stomach ulcers.In addition, typical workaholics don't pay much attention to their

families.They spend little time with their children, and their marriages may end in divorce.

Is workaholism always dangerous? Perhaps not.There are, certainly, people who work well under stress.Some studies show that many workaholics have great energy and interest in life.Their work is so pleasurable that they are actually very happy.For most workaholics, work and entertainment are the same thing.Their jobs provide them with a challenge; this keeps them busy and creative.

Why do workaholics enjoy their jobs so much? There are several advantages to work.It provides people with paychecks, and this is important.But it offers more than financial security It provides people with self-confidence; they have a feeling of satisfaction when they have produced a challenging piece of work and are able to say," I made that." Psychologists claim that work gives people an identity; by working, they get a sense of self and individualism.In addition, most jobs provide people with a socially acceptable way to meet others.
