Its Virtual School has taught more than 10,000 students from across the United States and other countries. Las

19、t year，the school launched NYU Online. It offers NYUs first online programs for a bachelors degree. Programs are offered in three areas：leadership and management，information systems management and social sciences.

30、Thailand，forests have been destroyed to produce mole attractive furniture in Singapore and Hong Kong.

42、 grow. People use it to work and play. Energy is everywhere in nature-in the light of the sun，in the wind，in the forest,in water currents and erupting volcanoes. Without energy，there is no life.
