A
Among the international students in Canada who are struggling to find a job there after graduation, some of them eventually make it with relative ease. They're the ones who've already built up much internship (实习) experience while still attending university, as their majors offer a co­operative program.
Co­op programs, a feature (特色) of Canadian university programs, allow academic studies to be combined with work experience. During school years, students get to network with employers, gain internship experience in relevant fields, and earn academic credits that count toward their degree or diploma.
Co­op programs are available in most comprehensive universities, like the University of Waterloo, Wilfrid Laurier University and York University. These programs are not only open to students majoring in business but also to many science and art majors. Statistics show that nearly 30 percent of recent foreign applicants have chosen majors that also subscribe to the co­op program.“It's easy to understand，” said a senior education counselor. He noted that working opportunities are provided by employers that build bridges with the university and most of them are well­known companies or local government organizations. Moreover, the average salary for interns is as high as C$ 30,000 to C$ 40,000 a year.
Students can choose to work during vacations or term times freely. The required duration of the internship for undergraduates ranges from eight to twelve months, or four to six months for graduate students.“The programs also benefit those students who want to apply for immigration，” added the counselor.“That's because the policies of many provinces in Canada require a certain length of work experience of the applicants.”
1、What's the main characteristic of co­op programs?
A．They offer a variety of jobs in different fields.
B．They make academic credits easier to gain.
C．Employers work with students on their studies.
D．Students get work experience while at university.
2、What does the example of foreign applicants indicate?
A．Co­op programs are becoming more popular.
B．The average salary for interns will increase.
C．Co­op programs are open to all majors.
D．Companies welcome foreign students.
3、Which section of a website does the text probably come from?
A．Business. B．Education.
C．Lifestyle. D．Culture.

B
Slowly, so slowly that we never even noticed how it happened, our family stopped talking to each other. Our own worlds opened up to us through the computer or the cell phone or the CD player.
Family Night was born when Mom called us for dinner. Jessica and I came and sat down. Dad loaded his plate and started to rise from the table.
“Where are you going?” Mom questioned.
“To the living room. I have some work,” Dad replied as he hurried away. Mom’s face got tight, but she said nothing. About two minutes later, my cell phone buzzed. Jessica kept her earphones on during most of the meal. Mom was clearly upset.
Family Night started the next week. Mom established three rules: no phones, no music, and no leaving the table. Everyone would eat together and play a game together “like a real family.”
All seemed to be going according to Mom’s plan until the first buzz of a cell phone. After dinner, we had been playing the board game for only ten minutes when another cell phone let out a shrill scream. This time the phone belonged to my father.
“Work’s calling. I have to answer,” he whispered as he hurried out of the room.
Mom sighed, but she forced a smile and encouraged us to continue with the game. We kept playing through every interruption afterwards: the beeping of Jessica’s phone, the buzz of another text message from Darnell, the soothing voice announcing the arrival of an e-mail on Dad’s computer. When the game was over, Mom released us to our rooms.
That first Family Night was not a success, but Mom soldiered on. Every Monday evening we silenced our electronics and gathered around the table; and each time, setting aside our technological toys became a little easier. The next two months my father would be taking business trips. We wouldn’t be able to have Family Night every Monday.
To my surprise I realized that I would miss those few hours each week when the house was filled with my family’s laughter and conversation. I was also glad to know that when we really wanted to, we could silence the electronic buzz and just be a family again.
1、What led to the start of Family Night?
A．Electronics harmed the family’s life.
B．Heavy housework made Mom angry.
C．Dad didn’t get along well with others.
D．The children were too lazy to help Mom.
2、Family Night made the family ________ than before.
A．closer B．healthier
C．more relaxed D．more confident
3、What words can best describe the first Family Night?
A．Tiring but satisfying. B．Challenging but exciting.
C．Busy but interesting. D．Unsuccessful but meaningful.
4、It can be inferred that ________.
A．Dad seldom took business trips
B．the author enjoyed Family Night
C．Family Night would not continue
D．the children threw away the cellphones

Sure money is 18 . But when isn’t it? People need food.”
