问题     In the United States today, many people want a college education. However, almost half of the people who go to college now do not attend a four-year college. Instead, they go to a community college.
    The community college offers a two-year course of study in a wide range of subjects. It prepares some young people to go on to a four-year college. It trains others for jobs in business, government, or industry.
    Some people choose a community college because of cost. The tuition for a semester at a community college can be less than half the cost of a semester at a four-year college. Also, since these colleges are located in large communities, their students can save money by living at home.
    Community colleges are also useful for people who have jobs and who do not have time for a traditional four-year college. Some of these people take night courses at community colleges. Others complete long-distance courses, in which they stay at home and use video-tapes, audiotapes, and the Internet.
    Community colleges also serve high school graduates who only achieved low grades. Many of these students would not be admitted to a four-year college. If they do well, they may go on to a four-year college.
    Today, the country’s 1, 500 community colleges have more than 10 million students. These colleges are making it possible for more and more people to continue their education.
Why do people often prefer to go to a community college?
选项
答案low cost
解析 (第三段提到许多人出于费用考虑选择社区学院，因为它的学费低于四年制高校的一半，并且因为离家近很多学生可以直接住在家里从而节省住宿费。这是community college区别于其他院校最大的地方。)
