It is a great privilege for me to be invited to speak at the tenth year reunion of State University’s graduating class. When you arrived on campus today, after a decade, you were probably impressed by two changes at State: one, the absence of University of Tower, the first building constructed on the campus, and a historic landmark for many years)and two, the disappearance of parking lots on main campus.
Two years ago University Tower was inspected and found to be unsafe. In spite of efforts to restore it, it was necessary to level the building. A bell tower was constructed on the same site, built for the most part using the good brick that was saved from the original building. The original bells were also preserved. As for the parking lots, they have been replaced by grass, trees, and pedestrian walkways. Parking is now located in parking garages on the North and West sides of the campus.
Two more subtle changes have occurred within the past decade. One is the creation and expansion of the Division of Continuing Education for the Community, including a Saturday and summer enrichment program for children, and an afternoon and evening special interest program for adults. The other is the addition of the student population of many young people from abroad, especially students from Japan, Latin America, and the Middle East. Most international students are enrolled in the College of Engineering and the College of Business.
And so, State is a different place, but like University Tower, it is built of the same brick. We are still committed to the same age-old ideals "quality education for our citizens", but we have extended our commitment beyond the borders of our state and nation to encompass the citizens and nations of the world.
Questions:
26. What is the occasion for the man’s speech?
27. In what aspect does State University remain the same?
28. Why was University Tower torn down?
29. What is the main idea of the man’s speech?
选项
A、Everything at State University has changed in the past ten years.
B、Although the campus looks the same, some things have changed at State University.
C、In spite of the changes on the campus, the commitments of the State University remain the same.
D、Everything has stayed the same at State University during the past ten years.
答案
C
解析
推理判断题.短文前半部分主要讲述校园内大的变化和学校的一些小的变化。最后的主题句And so,State is a different place,but like University Tower,it is built of the same brick.We are stillcommitted to the same age-old ideals“quality education for our citizens”(因此,学校发生了一些变化,但就像校园里的钟塔一样,它依然是用同样的砖瓦建成的。我们依然恪守多年来的理念:为国民提供素质教育)传达的信息是:虽然校园里发生了一些变化,但State University多年来恪守的理念没有变,选项C符合原文的意思。A一切都变了,显然不对;B虽然校园看起来还是一样,但学校发生了一些变化,这与文中提到的校园内发生了很大的变化不符;D过去的十年内校园里一切都保持不变,这也与原文不符。答案是C。
