The sun was shining when I got on No. 151 bus. We passengers sat jammed in heavy clothes. No one  36  . That’s one of the unwritten rules  37  we see the same faces every day, we prefer to  38  behind our newspapers. People who sit so close together are using them to keep  39  distance.

   As the bus came near the Mile, a  40  suddenly rang out, “Attention! This is your  41  speaking.” We looked at the back of the driver’s head. “Put your  42  down, all of you.” The papers came down. “Now, turn and  43  the person next to you.”

   Surprisingly we all did it. Still no one smiled. I faced an old woman. I saw her  44  every day. We waited for the next  45  from the driver. “Now repeat after me. Good morning, neighbor!”

   But our voices were a little  46  . For many of us, this was the  47  word we had spoken that day. When we said them together, like  48  to people beside us, we couldn’t help  49  . There was the feeling of relief. Moreover, there was the sense of ice being  50  . To say the three words was not so  51  after all.

   The bus driver said nothing more. He didn’t  52  to. Not a single newspaper went back up. I heard laughter, a  53  sound I had never heard before in this bus.

   When I  54  my stop, I said goodbye to my seatmate, and then  55  the bus. That day I was starting happily.

The reasons for going to college have been accepted without question for more than a generation．All high school graduates ought to go ，because college will help them earn more money, become  “better” people，and learn to be more responsible citizens than those who don’t go.

    But college has never been able to work its magic for everyone．And now that close to half our high school graduates are attending，those who don’t fit the pattern are becoming more numerous，and more obvious．College graduates are selling shoes and driving taxis；college students interfere with each other’s experiments and write false letters of recommendation in the intense competition for admission to graduate school．Others find no stimulation in their studies，and drop out—often encouraged by college administrators．

    Some observers say the fault is with the young people themselves—they are spoiled and they are expecting too much．But that’s a criticize of the students as a whole，and doesn’t explain all campus unhappiness．Others blame the state of the world，and they are partly right．We’ve been told that young people have to go to college because our economy can’t absorb an army of untrained eighteen-year-old either．

    Some adventuresome educators and campus watchers have openly begun to suggest that college may not be the best，the proper, the only place for every young person after the completion of high school．We may have been looking at all those surveys and statistics upside down，it seems，and through the rosy glow of our own remembered college experiences．Perhaps college doesn’t make people intelligent，ambitious，happy , liberal，or quick to learn things-maybe it's just the other way around，and intelligent，ambitious，happy, liberal，quick-learning people are merely the ones who have been attracted to college in the first place．And perhaps all those successful college graduates would have been successful whether they had gone to college or not．This is heresy(异端)to those of us who have been brought up to believe that if a little schooling is good，more has to be much better．But contrary evidence is beginning to gradually increase in amount．

48．What does the author believe according to the passage?

A．People used to question the value of college education．

B．People used to have full confidence in higher education．

C．All high school graduates went to college．

D．Very few high school graduates chose to go to college

49．Why does the drop-out rate of college students seem to go up?

A．Young people are disappointed with the traditional way of teaching at college.

B．Many young people are required to join the army．

C．Young people have little motivation in pursuing a higher education．

D．Young people don’t like the intense competition for admission to graduate school．

50．According to the passage，the problems of college education partly arise from the fact that         .

    A．society cannot provide enough jobs for properly trained college graduates

    B．high school graduates do not fit the pattern of college education

    C．too many students have to earn their own living

    D．college administrators encourage students to drop out
