Foreign Student Series
Orange Coast College, one of the largest community colleges in the United States, has recently been broadcasting a series of reports for foreign students who want to attend it. The reports introduce the college, tell them how to get information about it, how to apply for admission, and how to access possible places to seek financial aid. College officials also give new standards for marks of student’s admission tests and subjects to be tested.
Opinions on the future of E-books vary. Authors John Updike and Ray Bradbury are anti-E-book and have both been quoted criticizing E-books. Meanwhile, simply because E-books don’t require paper doesn’t mean they’re completely enviro-friendly: the growing number of computers and electronic devices in the United States has begun to create a disposal problem. These devices use elements such as lead, mercury, and chromium and usually end up in landfills. A recent Salon Magazine article noted that "consumer electronics constitute 40% of the lead found in landfills."
Then there is the size of the readers—or, more precisely, the size of the type on the readers. A PDA’s screen is only a few inches square: to read a book on a PDA requires lots of squinting and scrolling. E-book readers are much more like paper books in terms of front size, but reading them can be like looking at a computer monitor—with lesser models, a monochrome computer monitor—for great lengths of time.
Nevertheless, the technology continues improving. Microsoft released its MS Reader, whose interface emulates the printed page, hoping to make extended E-book reading more comfortable.

答案
The two speakers are talking about the recent reports given by Orange Coast College to foreign students who want to attend the college. Important changes have been made in the reports. As to the new standards for admission tests, foreign students must earn a score of at least five hundred and fifty on the TOEFL. And they must also be tested in mathematics when they arrive here. The speakers think the reform is good, although the score is a bit high for some new-comers. I agree with the speaker’s opinion. As is mentioned, language ability is rather important. Because the college is offering more than one hundred programs to train students for jobs, and these students usually graduate after two years, it is therefore essential for students to take learning language well into consideration. One advantage of the new standards for admission tests is that it would provide a sound base for students who will go there to study. Higher language requirements will make their academic study more smooth.
