A new university without a library has recently opened in the USA. All the information normally found in a library is now stored in the university's computers. Without leaving their computers, users can send messages and receive information through telephone lines. However, this means that each student must have access to a computer, and many universities are making this a requirement for freshmen. College campuses now have computer jacks in every part of the university. Study is no longer restricted to just one location.

Computer bulletin boards are used in the same way as traditional ones in schools and colleges. The difference is that over 20 million people may have access to them. If students want to discuss math at 3 am, it's not a problem. They post messages on the bulletin board and find other people who want to talk about the same topic.

Technology now means students can get a degree without being on campus. There are people who are skeptical about this new method of education, but their concerns have had little impact.

Most students, in their own countries have had little opportunity to practise using English. When foreign learners first have the (1) .......... to speak to an English-speaking person they may have a shock: they often (2) ............ great difficulty in understanding. I'll just mention three of the possible reasons for this.
First, it seems to students that English people speak very quickly. (3) ........., they speak with a variety of accents. Third, different styles of speech are used. For all of these reasons (4) ........... will have difficulty, mainly because they lack everyday practice in listening to English people speaking English.
(5) .............. can a student do then to overcome these difficulties? Obviously, attend English classes and if a language laboratory is available, use it as (6) ............ as possible. He should listen to programs in English on the radio and TV. Perhaps, most important of (7) .................. , he should take every opportunity to meet and speak with native English-speaking people.
In addition, the student probably has difficulty in speaking English fluently. The advice here will seem (8) .......... to follow but it's necessary. Firstly, he must simplify what he wants to say so that he can express himself reasonably and clearly. Secondly, he must try to think in English, (9) ............ translate from his mother tongue. This will only begin to take place when his use of English become automatic; using a language laboratory (10) ...listening to as much English as possible will help.

Netiquette is the etiquette or good manners of using the Internet. Being friendly and polite shows good manners both offline and online. You should ask someone's permission before posting anything about them on the web or sharing their emails, photo, or chat conversations. You need to make sure they know you are sharing it and agree with it.

If your friend gives you permission to forward something, be sure to protect them by removing any personal information like their name and email address, and remove any parts that have nothing to do with what you want to share.

If someone is rude in cyberspace, you have a choice between joining in and making it worse or just walking away from it. If their attacks are directed at you,

you can block them and talk to a trusted adult about how to best deal with them before responding.

Much has been said written about the declining numbers of and disappointing lack of diversity among American college students majoring in engineering. Among the factors cited to explain this phenomenon are the lack of exposure of high school students to the very idea of engineering and the fact that many have insufficient mathematics and science background to gain entrance to engineering school, even if they do identify the profession as a possible career. This is unfortunate, for the ideas of engineering should be integrated into the curricula not only of high schools but also of middle and primary schools. Our children are being done a disservice by not being exposed properly throughout their education to engineering activities identified as such.

After all, even pre-school children have the prerequisites in their play for appreciating exactly what engineering is: design, Indeed, design is everywhere around them throughout their school day, even in their before-school and after-school activities. It need only be pointed out to them that they designing something, and therefore being engineering of sorts, in virtually everything that they do

CHILDREN AND COMPUTERS

We are already familiar with computers – computers work for us at home, in offices, in industry. But it is also true that many children today are using computers at school before they can write. What does this mean for the future? Are these children lucky or not?

Many people who do not know about computers think of them as machines that children play with. They worry that children do not learn from experience but just from pressing a button and that is not good for them. They think that children are growing up not knowing about the real world.

But people who understand more about computers see that they can be very good for children. A computer can help them learn about the real world more quickly, to learn what they want, to learn and to think for themselves. And for the future, don’t we need people who can think clearly, who know how to get information quickly and use it well? What do you think?

1. Are we strange to computers?
