Want to be a volunteer for Beijing Olympics in 2008? Recently, the recruiting started.
The recruiting of Beijing Olympics Volunteer starts from Aug 28, 2006 to end of March 2008.
Stage 1: Beijing Volunteers
From August 28, 2006, the program opens to applicants in Beijing (and Beijing only).
Stage 2: China Volunteers
From Dec, 2006, people from outside Beijing can submit their application.
Stage 3: Overseas Volunteers
By March 2007, people from outside China (including in other countries) can apply for volunteering in Olympics 2008.
The Program
Travel, hotel are not provided. Only working meal is available for volunteers (makes sense, isn't it?)
If you have any questions, just call Olympics Volunteer hotline: +86-10-12308

Nearly 600,000 Americans lost their jobs this past month, pushing the nation’s unemployment rate (失業(yè)率) to 7.6 percent. But not all of those fired workers are sitting at home, reading the job advertisements and waiting for the phone to ring. Thousands of people are returning to school, making public colleges and universities among the few bright places in the disappointing US economy.

At a time when many Americans have had their work hours cut or have even lost their jobs, Sherian Huddleston is working overtime. She works at Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) where she oversees (監(jiān)督) the enrollment (注冊) of new students. The university’s population grew by 800 students this term —an increase of 4 percent over last spring’s enrollment. Huddleston says seeing the enrollment rise in a failing economy is not unexpected. "When people are out of work," she points out, "they will ask 'What else can I do?’ or 'What other careers can I follow?’ They will often return to school if they have not completed a degree before."

Older returning students aren’t the only ones increasing the enrollment at MTSU. Huddleston says she’s also seeing an increase in student transfers (轉(zhuǎn)移). "Students who went out of state, or even within the state, to more expensive schools are transferring to public schools to make use of the lower cost of going to school here," she explains.

1.Which is the best title for the passage?

A．The Falling American Economy

B．College Enrollment up in a Down Economy

C．Colleges Have More Students Than Before

D．Going to College Is No Longer Difficult

2.According to the passage, many students return to school ______.

A．to make more money                    B．to read job advertisements

C．to complete a degree                    D．to ask their schoolmates for help

3.Many students are transferring to public schools mainly because ______.

A．public schools provide better education

B．public schools offer better jobs to their students

C．they don’t want to be influenced by the falling economy

D．the cost of public schools is lower and they can save money

4.Which of the following is TRUE about Sherian Huddleston?

A．She is working more hours than before because of the worsening economy.

B．She is a student of Middle Tennessee State University.

C．She disagrees with those who are returning to school.

D．She is surprised to see the enrollment go up.
