We continue our Foreign Student Series on higher education in the United States. Now you move on to college life once you are admitted to a school. The first thing you need to value is a place to live. Housing policies differ from school to school. Students might have to live in a dormitory, at least for the first year there.

Dorms come in all sizes. Some have suites. Six or more students may live in one suite. Other dorms have many rooms along a common hallway, usually with two students in each room . Many students say dormitories provide the best chance to get to know other students. Also, dorms generally cost less than apartments or other housing not owned by the school

Most colleges and universities offer single-sex dorms, but usually males and females live in the same building. They might live on the same floors and share the same common bathrooms. They may live in the same room only if they are married.

Edward Spencer is the associate vice president for student affairs at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg. He says it is important to understand the rules of the building in which you will live. He advises students to ask questions before they decide about their housing. For example, if a student requires a special diet, will the school provide it ? How much privacy can a student expect ? Will the school provide a single room if a student requests one ? And what about any other special needs that a student might have?

Virginia Tech, for example, had a ban against candles in dorms . But it changed that policy to let students light up candles for religious purposes. The university also has several dorms open all year so foreign students have a place to stay during vacation time.

60. Why do some students in the U.S. choose to live in dorms, according to the passage ?

   A. Dorms allow students in the U.S. choose to live in dorms

B. Dorms are safer for students to live in most cases

C. Dorms offer the chance to meet other people and are cheap as well

D. In most schools students are required to live in the dorms

61. The second paragraph is mainly about ______

A. what suites in American schools are like        

B. what dorms in American schools are like

C. what dorms are owned by schools         

D. when people get to know each other

62. We can infer from what Edward Spencer says that ______

A. colleges usually don’t provide a special diet 

B. housing rules differ from one building to another

C. a ban against candles in dorms is necessary 

D. the U.S. college always satisfies students’ requests

63 .What is the passage mainly about ?

A. Places to live in U.S. colleges      

B. housing polices in the U.S

C. Advantages of dormitories     

D. Rules of single-sex dorms

 Plants are very important living things. Life could not go on if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air， water and sunlight. Animals and man cannot make food from air， water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. Therefore animals and man need plants in order to live. This is why we find that there are so many plants around us. If you look carefully at the plants around you， you will find that there are two kinds of plants： flowering plants and non-flowering plants. Flowering plants can make seeds. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed， some have two， three or four， and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit. Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores（胚芽）。 Spores are very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores are all on wet and shady places， they usually grow into new plants.

    C. All fruits of flowering plants have seeds D. Without plants， man will die out
