Looking to improve your language skills, but you don’t have the time to go overseas to attend school? More and more universities around the world are offering opportunities for students to obtain degrees online (distance education) from the comfort of their own homes, and many of these institutions are accredited, meaning that they have met certain standards of excellence.
     (26) If you decide to take language courses online, or any other subject, be sure to evaluate the benefits of studying online versus going abroad. The advantages of studying online are that (27)the costs are usually lower, you can study at your own pace, and you have access to the materials 24-hour-a-day from almost any computer in the world. However, you won’t get the human interaction of meeting people to face to face like you would if you were physically attending a school overseas.
     On the other hand, the advantages of going overseas may include day-to-day opportunities to learn a new culture, meet new friends with whom you can use and practice the language, and chances to see different parts of the world. However, (28)there may be a number of disadvantages for some including expense, time away from one’s school, family, or work life, and the challenge of adapting to a new culture and way of life.
    Whatever you do, consider a distance education program that meets your educational needs, is within your budget, and equally important, provides you with opportunities to grow beyond the classroom through cultural and educational activities.

选项 A、Mary who has little free time and not much money.
B、Tina who is free, wealthy and independent.
C、John who prefers practicing English with people in person.
D、Michael who intends to have a tour while learning languages.

答案 A

解析 文章中提到远程教学的劣势有:无法与人面对面地交流。同时也提到出国留学的优点(即远程教学无法做到的):可以学习一种新的文化,交到新朋友并与之交流,可以顺便旅游观光。故本题答案为A。
