In that university, there are funds which provide scholarship for the poor or overseas students.

听力原文：W: I can't believe that we're almost out of high school.

M: I can't either. What are you going to do next fall? Go to college?

W: Yes, but I can't decide where to go.

M: Do you want to go to a big university or a small one?

W: I think I'd rather go to a small university, so the classes wouldn't be so large.

M: Do you want to go out of the state or stay here?

W: I want to stay in the state, so I will be close to home.

M: It sure would be nice to be close enough to come home on weekends when you want to. How about a public or private university?

W: Well, I like the atmosphere of a private church-owned school. The students are more serious about school, and there isn't a lot of partying.

M: Yes, but private universities are so expensive. How are you going to pay for it?

W: I've applied for a music scholarship, and my parents will be able to help pay for some of the expenses. What about you? What are you going to do after graduation?

M: I'm going to Oregon State University.

W: Oh, I know a lot of kids who've gone there and really liked it. Why did you choose it?

M: Well, a lot of my friends are going there. And the school has a good teacher preparation program. I've always wanted to be a teacher.

W: I hear they have a really great football team.

M: Yes. It'll be fun to go to the games. I'm really excited about the social life at college.

W: Well, good luck.

M: Yes. See you later.

Passage Four

Students all over the world have to work for their education. A college education in the United States is

expensive. The costs are so high that most families begin to save for their children's education when their children are babies. Even so, many young people cannot afford to pay the expenses of full-time college work. They do not have enough money to pay for school costs. Tuition for attending the university, books for classes, and living expenses are high. There are other expenses such as chemistry and biology lab fees and special student activity fees for such things as parking permits and football tic, kets. The cost of college education increases every year. However, classrooms are still crowded with students. Some American students have scholarships or other support, but many do not.

Students from other countries have money problems to overcome, too. Because students in most international programs need to have a sponsor, they work hard to earn scholarships or special loans. International students understand the value of going to school in another country. They also know that it is difficult. Yet just as Americans choose to attend American universities in spite of the difficulty, however, it is usually possible for students from abroad to work on university campuses to pay for some of the costs of their education. Some people believe that students value their education more if they work for it.

48. Tuition for attending the university in the United States is ______.

A. inexpensive

B. high

C. free from charge

D. costless

M: Someone but not me.

W: Tell me, where was your personal bag during the flight?

M: I had it down by my feet between me and the man in the next seat. He was the only person who could have opened my bag while I was asleep. It must have been him.
