William lived with his parents and seven sisters in a small clay house without electricity or running water. Like most boys in his village, William was expected to assist his parents on the family farm, as well as keep up with his school work.
However, in 2003 at the age of 13, William and many other children were forced to drop out of school when their parents could no longer afford his schooling. William had to work even harder to help his family, but he wasn't ready to give up his education. He went to the local library and took out some books to study. One book, called Using Energy, sparked William's interest in science and gave him an idea that significantly changed his future.
In the book, William found a picture of a windmill (风车), and a brief description of how it could be used to generate electricity from wind. He knew that there was plenty of wind in his village, and realized that if he could build a windmill like that, he could give his family and the people in his village a much better life. There was just one problem. The book didn't explain how to build a windmill, and neither did any of the other books in the library.
What happened over the next year demonstrated William's incredible ambition and determination. He began to collect any kinds of materials he thought could be useful — scraps of wood, broken bicycles, old shoes — and started to build a windmill next to his family's house. He endured many challenges and failures. Other people in his village called him crazy and said his idea would never work. Finally, at the age of 14, William completed his first windmill. When they saw electric lights and heard the sound of music on the radio coming from William's house, the village people came running. He had done it.
His autobiography (自传), The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind tells the story of how the rest of the world came to know about his achievements. With the help of international supporters, his village now has clean running water, solar powered lighting, and electric power. As a result of his actions, William was invited to study engineering at Dartmouth College, one of the top-ranking universities in the U. S. He also travels the world and gives talks about how he made his dream a reality.

Many people in high school cannot wait to go to college and leave their hometown behind. Questions arise, though, when it comes to all of the decisions involved in choosing 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 reasons.
Another 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 college. Distance from home may also come into consideration. If family is a top priority, that person should stay close to home; on the other hand, if independence is desired, a campus farther from home would be more appropriate.
School size also plays a major role in the decision process. If 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. Your area of interest is another factor to consider in the decision-making process if you want to get the most from your education. The whole point of college is to learn what is of interest to you.
Crucially(至关重要地), one must take into consideration the colleges by which you can realistically be accepted. An Ivy League school for an average student would probably not be a good match. 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 are probably not looking hard enough.
44. When it comes to going to college the author thinks ________.
A. financial situation is the first to consider
B. students are unwilling to leave their home
C. students will become homesick
D. students are eager to attend their ideal university
45. What is the main idea of the third paragraph?
A. Students can be independent at college.
B. A long distance will make students upset.
C. The location of the college is a main factor.
D. The climate must be taken into consideration.
46. What does the underlined part “ people person” in the passage mean?
A. A person of great capacity. B. A very particular person.
C. A person of great importance. D. A very sociable person.
47. Which is the most important factor when choosin
