问题     Today, there is no such thing as a "typical" college student. People of all ages are enrolled in colleges.
    Though the concept of college may be the same for all students, the stress and future goals are different. The college students most people think of usually range in age from 18 to 21, and are most often away from home for the first time. As a result, they now have choices and no parent to tell them what to do. They are responsible for their own lives, needing to learn to manage their time and find a job, while attending school. They enter this new world with the anticipation of freedom, fun and a good job after graduation.
    The new faces in the college are usually 30 years old or older, and are returning to school after several years away. They are starting their college education, after raising a family and now ready to do something for themselves. Their lives are considerably different from their younger classmates. They have been on their own for a while, and are concerned about family, responsibilities, work, and the adjustment of being back in school after some years. Most important to them are the hopes of a new career or a job promotion after they graduate.
    Though they may come to college for different reasons, the result is the same. It is their chance to make a better life for themselves or their families. As the younger generation is looking for freedom in their lives, those who are returning to school also see freedom. The same opportunities were not available 20 years ago.
    So in colleges and universities, there is a new sense of hope and dreams. Where once stood only the youth of our future, they are now joined by people of all ages who share the dreams of a better life.  
In the past college students usually______.

选项 A、lived with their parents
B、found good jobs easily
C、had much time to spare
D、had no burden of raising a family

答案D

解析 推理判断题。根据第二段第三、四句“As a result,they now have choices…They are responsible for their own lives,needing to learn to manage their time and find a job…”可知,过去的大学生上大学时是第一次离开家自己做选择,学着对自 己负责,学着管理自己的时间,毕业后努力去找一份好工作。由此可推知,他们没有 养家糊口的负担,故选D。选项B“过去大学生们通常能够轻易找到好工作”与第二 段最后一句不符,找到好工作只是过去的大学生在进入大学时怀揣的期待之一,并不 一定能轻易实现。
