单选题 Questions 162-165 refer to the following announcement. San Juan Academy has developed a unique approach to dealing with underachieving students. Instead of doling out punishment for incomplete assignments, or assigning extra hours of tutoring for bad grades, the academy provides failing students with a reward. Through the Computers for Success program, San Juan Academy students who fall behind their classmates in reading and mathematics are given their own computers. For nine weeks, the students get to keep a personal computer with a printer and software in their homes. They can work and play with the computer whenever they like and as often as they like. Is this a prize for being bad in school? "It may look that way to an outsider," says school principal Edna Seymour, "but this approach is actually well backed up by research. Studies show that students who are computer literate do much better in school. The figures rise for students who actually have a computer at home, and are even higher for students from homes where most of the family members are comfortable using a computer." Because of this, when a student is given a computer to take home, families are encouraged to get into the act, too. Students in the Computers for Success program are required, together with their parents and siblings, to attend a weekend computer seminar. This way everyone in the family becomes familiar with the use of the computer. This is an investment in the students' educational future. "It is widely accepted that parental involvement makes all the difference in a child's school success," says Principal Seymour. "We are extending that idea to involve families in our computer literacy program. As part of that program, we make it possible for families to buy refurbished computers at an affordable price. Many of our families have already taken advantage of this opportunity. On the whole, we have been very pleased with the Computers for Success program."

单选题Questions 176-180 refer to the following article. Early today, Susan Cabot, executive director of the New Hightown City Transit Authority, announced the Transit Authority's decision to pass an unpopular rule banning walking between morning cars on the commuter train. The decision drew criticism from many people who ride the trains. Ms. Cabot reminded opponents of the ban that although moving between cars to find an available seat was a common practice, it was also a very dangerous one. She added that the new rule would help ensure the safety of the passengers and reduce accidents. Ms. Cabot further stated that transit police officers on patrol would be responsible for enforcing the ban. In most cases, they would issue a warning before writing a ticket. She declined, however, to mention specific criteria that would be used when deciding whether to issue a ticket. "We are not writing tickets for everything we see, nor are we assigning police officers to watch every move passengers make on board. If a passenger has a good reason for not observing the rules, police officer discretion will prevail." Ms. Cabot ordered the Transit Authority to conduct a three- month study to monitor how often tickets are issued. Other proposed changes under consideration include a ban on wearing roller skates, standing on a skateboard, or riding a bicycle on a train platform. In addition, the practice of putting one's feet up on the seat would also be forbidden. If approved by Transit Authority, these additional rule changes would take effect on May 1.
