Some of America’s best universities have accepted an unusually low percentage of students for admission this fall. For example, the Wall Street Journal reported that Stanford University had a record low admission rate this year. The news- paper said the California school accepted less than 11 percent of the students who applied.
College admissions officers give a number of reasons for the higher rates of rejection letters this year. They say the main reason is that high school seniors are applying to more schools than in the past. Some colleges reported big increases in the number of applications. Another reason is the general increase in students going to college. Electronic forms make applying easier. For example, students can send an online form called the Common Application to many different colleges and universities.
Many students who apply to top schools are placed on a waiting list. They do not get a decision until the school knows how many applicants who are offered admission will accept the offer. Just as students compete, so do schools.
The increasing competition for the best colleges means more worry for students and parents. They wonder just what schools are looking for. They wonder why a top student is accepted at one school but not another. The Wall Street Journal says some top schools are actively looking for students who have shown great interest in helping others. Other schools are said to be looking for students who have musical talent.
What is the passage mainly about?
How will this competitive situation affect students?
选项
A、Students may worry about the entrance requirement of the best colleges.
B、Students may worry about their talent in music required by the best colleges.
C、Students have to show interest in helping others.
D、Students have to read the Wall Street Journal actively.
答案
A

本题问“这种竞争的状况将对学生产生怎样的影响?”短文提到,The increasing competition for the best colleges means more worry for students and parents. They wonder just what schools are looking for.They wonder why a top student is accepted at one school but not another.也就是说,这种不断加剧的竞争给学生和家长们带来了焦虑——他们要考虑这些学校重点考察的是学生怎样的素质,为什么一个优秀的学生可能被一所学院接受又有可能被另一所学院拒绝?据此可以确定[A]“学生会为一流大学的入学要求而烦恼”正确。
