The book gives an example of a change at school. A school is changing from having two terms to three terms because there are too many students.
Several teens are talking about this. Most of them are unhappy and worried. But Chris is not. He laughs and tells a story about two mice, two “l(fā)ittle people” and some cheese.
The four are in amaze looking for the cheese. Here, cheese means something important in life, like moving to a new class or getting into college. But they find the cheese is gone. The mice realize that they can’t change what has happened and have to find more cheese. This means finding different dreams. The little people, however, can’t do this. They are afraid of change so they find no cheese

(衡陽市八中2008屆高三模擬試題B篇)
Skipping classes, particularly big lectures where an absence is likely to go undetected, is a tradition among college undergraduates.
These days, however, some professors say they’re seeing more absenteeism, as students make the most of new technologies as learning aids.
Americ Azevedo taught an “ Introduction to Computers ” at the University of California, Berkeley, US last semester. By visiting the course’s website, the 200 enrolled students could download audio recordings or watch digital videos of the lectures, as well as read the instructor’s detailed lecture notes.
But there was one big problem: So many of the undergraduates relied on the technology that at times only 20 or so actually showed up for class.
Doug Suda, 19, a student in Azevedo’s class last semester, said he skipped about three-quarter of the lectures. It’s largely because he was busy with an off-campus job and was taking the course to fulfill a business major requirement.
At the end of the term, Suda prepared hurriedly for the final exam by watching videos of about 15 lectures over three days.
“ If I hadn’t that… I would probably fail the class,” said Suda, who instead received a B-plus.
Despite the concerns about absenteeism, schools are increasingly experimenting with ways to let students watch or listen to lectures on their computers or digital music players, like ipods. Last month, Harvard Medical School began “ Podcasting ”lectures. Students can download them into digital musical players, and study while they, say, go for a walk.
As many academics accept the electronic innovation, others are pushing back. To encourage attendance, they are applying low-tech tactics, like giving more surprising quizzes or cutting back their online offerings.
Lee Chanian, a UCLA economics professor, says “ too much technology leads to passive learning environment and encourage more absenteeism”. He now puts fewer lecture materials online, and provides extensive notes only for the most complicated topics.
60.The word “ absenteeism ” in the 2nd paragraph most probably means .
A. attending classes B. having classes
C. giving classes D. skipping classes
61.At times only 20 or so undergraduates showed up for Americ Azevedo’s class because .
A. so many undergraduates relied on digital learning aids
B. so many undergraduates have off-campus jobs.
C. his lectures were boring D. the exam was easy to pass
62.According to the passage, to encourage attendance, some academics are applying the following lower-tech tactics EXCEPT .
A. giving more surprise quizzes
B. putting fewer lecture materials online
C. providing extensive notes only for the most complicated topics
D. cutting off their online offerings
63.What could be the best title for this passage?
A. Lectures fight digital learning aids to up class numbers
B. Lectures apply digital learning aids to up class numbers
C. Lectures fight lower-tech tactics to up class numbers
D. Schools are encouraging more absenteeism
