阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项中选出最佳答案.

　　Looking ahead to 2010, it appears financially（资金上）impossible to accommodate 85,000 new students in classrooms at public four-year universities. Fortunately, such an approach（方法）is not necessary. Indeed, it's not even appropriate（合适的）.

　　Several forces are riding to the rescue. The two most important are distance learning and community and technical colleges. These will not eliminate the traditional setting where bachelor'（学士）and graduate degrees are earned. But they will be able to handle much of the growth in enrollments and the demand for higher education.

　　“When faced with a problem created by technology, apply more technology,” a late journalist once asserted. Higher education seems to be an example. New learning technology is a crucial tool in teaching new technical skills.

　　William Richardson, president of Johns Hopkins University, praised “Western Governors' University”--a virtual institution（虚拟大学）that uses the Internet and other information technology to overcome the vast distances of the West and reach people with education. “Just as the extremely controlled high school of old was perfect training for an assembly-line work force, so today's college is equally appropriate as a setting for a society whose members must acquire and manage knowledge from a wide variety of sources,” he notes.

　　Eastern Washington has long been a leader in this movement. For the past decade, Spokane's Education Service District 101 has brought the best teachers in the region to rural classrooms via satellite uplink. Washington State University（WSU） president Sam Smith reports that, during the same period, WSU managed a one-third increase in students with only 2 percent more faculty.

　　It's been done by holding growth at the main campus almost flat, setting up three branch campuses, locating learning at community colleges, and offering an extended degree program where students learn at home. In each case, technology is used to extend the “reach” of faculty.

　　The other cost-effective strategy is reliance on community and technical colleges. Here, Washington State has an edge. Its public two-year colleges provide the most extensive coverage in the nation. Jean Floten, president of Bellevue Community College, notes the system served 425,000 adult enrollees last year-a tenth all the state's adult population. Almost half were there for job training versus 40 percent for academic preparation.

（1）According to the author, to enroll more students, universities do not have to ________.

[　　]

A. enlarge their campuses

B. gain additional technical support

[　　]

A. applying new learning technology

B. using Internet and other information technology

C. teaching new technical skills

D. setting up more technical colleges

（3）It is implied in Paragraph 4 that to cope with the new problem, we should ________.

[　　]

A. set up new campuses

B. train more assembly-line workforce

C. provide knowledge through diverse means

D. reinforce high schools of old

（4）What has made possible “a one-third increase in students with only 2 percent more faculties”? _______.

[　　]

A. Technical and community college

B. New advances in science and technology

C. More learning centers

D. New school curricula
