Background information about the text:
Online education
Millions of people have rejected traditional education in favor of E-learning. And many universities have set up E-learning centers. Online-learning enrollments are growing 33 percent a year and are expected to hit 2.2 million by 2004.

" 42."6
Wages for teachers According to National Faculty Salary Survey in Private Four-Year Colleges and Universities(2000-01) 43. the highest-paying major field is Law 44. in which the overall average salary is $108 45.450. The other major fields in the top five are Public Health 46. $89 47.706; Financial Management and Services 48. $89 49.523; Chemical Engineering 50. $82 51.878; and Electrical 52. Electronics and Communications Engineering 53. $80 54.848. A wider salary survey by the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) found a 3.5 percent increase in average salaries for faculty at public and private institutions.
" 55."7
Register for classes Students register their classes with the help of their teachers. They are encouraged to register early 56. as class sizes are usually limited to a certain number of students and are filled on a first-come 57. first-served basis. They may register through the mail 58. by phone/fax or in person at the Center. Today 59. it is widespread at colleges and universities to register through the Internet 60. so it is no longer a phenomenon that students stand in a long line waiting to register for classes at the registration center.
" 61."8
Online life It is certainly true that life online is inescapable. Colleges that have invested a great deal in online learning have often discovered that the extra work for the teachers has been more than they expected 62. and so have some of the financial costs thus far. However 63. online education is quite new 64. and in the future the author's optimistic predictions may all come true. 
" 65."9
Reading A: Para 1-3
Para 1: Education plays a very important role in everybody's life. We go to school because we want to know more about the world around us and at the same time extend our horizons of thinking. The typical classroom used to be the place where teachers and students were working and exploring the wonderful world of knowledge together 66. but now everything has changed. Technology is taking over those interactions and introducing us to a whole new approach of learning.
" 67."10
play a role: to play a part in a play; take part in and make changes happen Examples: She plays the leading role in a television show.她在一个电视剧中担任主角。 Does religion have a role to play in society today?宗教在现代社会还有作用吗？
" 68."11
2. We go to school because we want to know more about the world around us and at the same time extend our horizons of thinking.

　Technology is being used to communicate in learning 76. and leading us to a completely new method of learning.先进的技术正逐步取代这些交互式的活动并给我们带来一种全新的学习方式。

" 78."17
7. approach:
1) n. the way to deal with something
Examples:
Since our research so far has not produced any answers to this problem 79. we need to adopt a different approach to it.
因为我们的研究至今还没有得到这一问题的答案，我们需要采取一种不同的方法。
Michael is always very logical in his approach.迈克在处理方法上总是很讲逻辑。
　　　　
" 80."18
2) v. to deal with something Examples:
We needs to find the best way of approaching the problem.
我们需要找到处理这一问题的最佳方法。I must tell him that I can't loan my few savings to him 81. but I don't know how to approach this topic.
我必须告诉他我不能把我不多的存款借给他，但我不知怎样触及这一话题。
" 82."19
Para 2: The Internet is one of those approaches. Learning via the Internet is a new style that many people believe is more successful than the conventional form of teaching. The Internet allows schools to develop a large amount of learning material that is accessible for students online anytime. There are so many choices of courses and subjects or time frames that completing a program is not an issue for students anymore. We found that online education gives us excellent sources of information 83. saves our time 84. money and it is extremely convenient.
" 85."20
8. accessible: easy to reach 86. get into 87. obtain 88. use 89. or talk to Examples: The resort is easily accessible by road 90. rail 91. and air.这一胜地可经由公路、铁路和空中方便到达。Storing customer details on computer makes them readily accessible.将顾客信息储存在计算机中，查找非常容易。

　Students can choose from so many courses and subjects or schedules that it is no longer a problem for students to complete an educational program.在网上，学生对各种课程和时间段有多种选择。因此，完成一项教育计划对学生而言就不再成为问题了。
" 93."22
Para 3: Not long ago we used to go to the library every time we needed information and spent hours searching for the right sources. Today there is a \"library\" in our house and it is available 24 hours a day. From my personal experience 94. as a first time mother 95. I found that using information online is very helpful. While I am at home with my baby 96. I am still able to connect to the world and search for any educational materials I need. I am also able to exchange thoughts 97. opinions and information with my classmates without leaving my house.
" 98."23

" 100."24
Reading A: Para 4-6
Para 4: The Internet is not only a big information provider but also saves us money and time. People are predicting that education will be much cheaper in the future because of Internet access to information. The cost of land 101. buildings and wages for teachers are continuously increasing and that makes conventional education more expensive than online education. In addition 102. regular courses (offline) depend heavily on books and other traditional paper-based materials while online education posts lectures 103. notes 104. and assignments electronically and that saves thousands of dollars every year. There is also no need for the classroom itself because most programs online require participation in discussion and group projects via e-mail.
" 105."25
11. In addition 106. regular courses (offline) depend heavily on books and other traditional paper-based materials while online education posts lectures 107. notes 108. and assignments electronically and that saves thousands of dollars every year. Besides 109. traditional courses depend heavily on books 110. notes 111. and other traditional materials in the form of paper; but online education can be done with the help of the Internet. In this way thousands of dollars can be saved every year.此外，常规的（离线）课程，严重地依赖于书本和其它传统的印刷资料。然而，在线教育则通过电子手段来显示教师授课内容、学生笔记和布置作业，这样每年可以节约数千美元。
" 112."26
12. in addition (to): besides; furthermore; used when adding another fact to what has already mentioned Examples: The hotel itself can accommodate 80 guests 113. and in addition 114. there are several apartments.宾馆本身可住80人，并且还有几套公寓套房。In addition to apples you asked for 115. I bought you some oranges.除了你要的苹果，我还买了桔子。
" 116."27
Para 5: The Internet classes and courses are also very convenient because there are no physical restrictions as in conventional education like space and time limitations. First 117. in classroom-based education there is a limitation on the number of students that are allowed in each class while Internet education is available to everyone because a classroom is not an issue there. Students don't have to struggle in order to register for the classes they like. In addition 118. there is no time limitation so students can repeat exercises as many times as they need.
" 119."28
13. issue: a subject or problem which people are thinking and talking about Examples: The need for more staff is not at issue 120. but finding suitable people has not been an easy job. 需要更多员工并不是问题，但是找到合适的人不是件简单的事。Don't worry about who will do it-that's just a side issue.不要担心谁来做这事――这只是一个次要问题。
" 121."29
Para 6: Education will spread out more and more online and students will have more choices on how and when to take their courses and classes. They will easily be able to take the classes they want and repeat material on the Internet as many times as they need. The Internet is a wonderful opportunity to have a good time but also to learn something in a convenient and less expensive way. In my opinion online life in the future is simply inescapable.
" 122."30
14. Education will spread out more and more online and students will have more choices on how and when to take their courses and classes.
　Education will be carried out more and more online. And students will have more choices to decide how and when to learn their courses and have their classes.教育会越来越多地在网上推广开来。 在以什么方式和什么时间上课的问题上，学生们会有更多的选择。
" 123."31
15. spread out: to cover or stretch over a large areaExamples: We spread the picnic rug out on the ground 124. and sat down to eat.我们在地上铺开野餐垫子，坐下吃起来。The suburbs spread out for miles to either side of the city.郊区在城市的周边绵延数英里。
