Questions arise, though, when it comes to all of the decisions involved in c

19、hoosing a college.One of the first considerations may be finance. State and public colleges are often the least expensive. Often, though, the better colleges are private and more expensive. It is sad when gifted students cannot attend a college of their choice just for financial（经济的）reasons.Another

20、major factor is location. Whether the college is in a small town or large city can have a major impact on its activities. A water lover probably will be more comfortable spending four years near an ocean or a lake. Those who cannot tolerate heat will probably be more comfortable at a northern colleg

21、e. Distance from home may also come into consideration. If family is a top priority（优先，最重要）, that person should stay close to home; on the other hand, if independence is desired, a campus farther from home would be more appropriate（合适的）.School size also plays a major role in the decision process. If

22、 you want to get to know your teachers, a small college is suitable. For those of you who consider yourself a “ people person” and want a wide range of activities, a large college is more fitting.

23、he most from your education.

An Ivy League school for an average student would probably not be a good match.

24、 Similarly, an average school for an above-average student would not work well. The college should provide enough of a challenge for the student to work hard. Although there may not be the perfect college out there, there probably will be one that is close. Those who cannot find a suitable college a

25、re probably not looking hard enough.24.

When they work, they usually get paid in money.Lots of the money today is made of paper. But people used to use all kinds of things as money. One of the first kinds of mo

29、ney was shells. Shells were not the only things used as money.In China, cloth and knives were used. In the Philippine Islands, rice was used as money for a long time. Some Africans once used elephant tusks, monkey tails, and salt as money.The first metal coins were made in China. They were round and

30、 had a square hole in the center. Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. Later, countries began to make coins of gold and silver.But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money.

31、 They began to use paper money.

Her ana

35、lysis(分析) of the family networks of 26,000 older Americans concluded that gender(性别) is the most important predictor(预示物) of whether or not people will actively care for elderly parents.In a paper being presented at the annual conference of the American Sociological Association in San Francisco, she

36、 concludes that simply having a sister makes men statistically likely provide less care.Using data from the University of Michigan Health and Retirement Study, a study which has been tracking a cross-section of over-50s for the last decade, she calculated that women provide an average of 12.3 hours

37、a month of care for elderly parents while men offer only 5.6 hours.“Whereas the amount of elderly parent care daughters provide is associated with limitations they face, such as employment or childcare, sons caregiving is associated only with the presence or absence of other helpers, such as sisters

38、 or a parents spouse(配偶),” she explained, “Sons reduce their relative caregiving efforts when they have a sister, while daughters increase theirs when they have a brother.” “This suggests that sons pass on parent caregiving responsibilities to their sisters.”In the UK, the 2011 census(人口普查) showed t

39、hat there are now around 6.5 million people with caring responsibilities a figure which has risen by a tenth in a decade.But many are doing so at the risk of their own health.
