Last August, Joe and Mary Mahoney began looking at colleges for their 17-year-old daughter, Maureen. With a checklist of criteria (衡量標(biāo)準(zhǔn))in hand, the Dallas family looked around the country visiting half a dozen schools. They sought a university that offered the teenager’s intended major, one located near a large city, and a campus where their daughter would be safe.
“The safety issue is a big one,” says Joe Mahoney, who quickly discovered he wasn’t alone in his worries. On campus tours other parents voiced similar concerns, and the same question was always asked: what about crime? But when college officials always gave the same answer -----“That’s not a problem here,”-----Mahoney began to feel uneasy.
“No crime whatever?” comments Mahoney today. “I just don’t buy it.” Nor should he: in 1999 the U.S. Department of education had reports of nearly 400,000 serious crimes on or around our campuses. “Parents need to understand that times have changed since they went to college,” says David Nichols, author of Creating a Safe Campus. “Campus crime mirrors the rest of the nation.”
But getting accurate information isn’t easy. Colleges must report crime statistics(統(tǒng)計數(shù)字) by law, but some hold back for fear of bad publicity(關(guān)注), leaving the honest ones looking dangerous. “The truth may not always be serious,” warns S. Daniel Carter of Security on Campus, Inc., the nation’s leading campus safety watchdog group.
To help concerned parents, Carter promised to visit campuses and talk to experts around the country to find out major crime issues and effective solutions.
【小題1】It is often difficult to get correct information on campus crime because some colleges ____.
A.receive too many visitors | B.mirror the rest of the nation |

A.mind | B.a(chǎn)dmit | C.believe | D.expect |
A.that are protected by campus security | B.that report campus crimes by law |
C.that are free from campus crime | D.that enjoy very good publicity |
A.Exact campus crime statistics. | B.Crimes on or around campuses. |

D
Men and women who serve in the United States armed forces are proud of the names like
doughboy and GI Joe.The names have come from the American Civil War.
After the American Civil War in the eighteen sixties,a writer in a publication called Beadle’s Monthly used the word doughboy to describe Civil War soldiers.But word expert Charles Funk says that early writer could not explain where the name started.
About twenty years later,someone did explain.She was the wife of the famous American general George Custer.Elizabeth Custer wrote that a doughboy was a sweet food served to Navy men on ships.She also said the name was given to the large buttons on the clothes of soldiers.For example,the soldiers enjoyed their new GI very much.They looked smart and felt comfortable.Elizabeth Custer believed the name changed over time to mean the soldiers themselves.
By World War Two,soldiers were called other names.The one most often heard was GI, or GI Joe.Most people say the letters GI were a short way to say general issue or government issue.The name came to mean several things.It could mean the soldier himself.It could mean things given to soldiers when they joined the military such as weapons,equipment or clothes.And,for some reason,it could mean to organize,or clean.Soldiers often say,“We GI’d the place.”And when an area looks good.soldiers may say the area is“GI.”Strangely,though,GI can also mean poor work,a job badly done.
Some students of military words have another explanation of GI.They say that instead of government issue or general issue,GI came from the words galvanized iron.The American soldier was said to be like galvanized iron,a material produced for special strength.The Dictionary of Soldier Talk says GI was used for the words galvanized iron in a publication about the vehicles of the early twentieth century.
Today,a doughboy or GI may be called a grunt(咕噥聲).Nobody is sure of the exact beginning of the word.But,the best idea probably is that the name comes from the sound that troops make when ordered to march long distances carrying heavy equipment.

A.the American Civil War B.a(chǎn) word expert in the 1860s
