听力原文: Why are college students so prone to sleep deprivation? The problem often begins during the teen years. Most high school kids admit that they are often sleepy and 15 percent admit that they fall asleep in class.
Lack of sleep causes many problems, not the least of which is the difficulty it adds to learning. It's also detrimental to the immune system and motor skills. Students (and everyone else) need at least eight hours of sleep to maintain optimum health and learning capabilities. Yet, with the pressure of school, family and social life, few students are sleeping near the required amount.
College life only escalates the problem. Added to the above activities are more hours needed for studies. Some students also hold down a part time job to help defray college expenses. Some students are married and trying to support a family. Because of all these pressures there is also an increase in stress. Stress can lead to insomnia and even more lost sleep.
With the approach of finals, the problem can only grow worse. Students force themselves to stay awake to study. It's called cramming for exams, and it can eat away at sleep hours already far too meager. Too many nights of forced wakefulness can eventually lead to a ease of full-blown insomnia and other sleep abnormalities.

A.eating disorders, low immunity and poor motor skills.
B.difficulty concentrating, poor motor skills, divorce.
C.low immunity, poor self esteem, eating disorders.
D.poor motor skills, difficulty concentrating, low immunity.

Other adults learn job skills like computer science or woodworking. Still other adult students learn to read or improve their English.
Some adult students are not trying to finish their education or learn job skills. Instead, they want to explore new interests. They want to learn to speak a foreign language, play a musical instrument or take good pictures. They attend continuing education programs at a community college or public school. For example, Montgomery College in Rockville, Maryland, offers many classes. They teach adults how to build a house or how to write their memoirs.
An agency in the Federal Department of Education supervises public adult education programs. Also, the government offers classes in many subjects for adults through the departments of Agriculture and Defense. So do private companies, labor unions and other organizations. These subjects include the arts, science and business.
Adult education classes meet in schools, public libraries and business offices. They also meet in religious centers and shopping centers. Classes in nature sciences and sports often take place outside.
Which is NOT the purpose of the adult students taking part in adult programs?
A.To finish their education.
B.To learn job skills.
C.To explore new interests.
D.To develop their brains.

There is a big push from many universities to recruit more and more students and more and more overseas students, but in a climate when there isn't a lot of money for further strengthening of education and educational methods and facilities. If we all keep trying to recruit more and more students, then the experience is going to deteriorate and my university for example has decided to cap the number of students at the university. Because we believe that if we have many more students then we won't be able to do it properly. //
There aren't many universities in the fortunate position of my own to be able to do that. And the reason why we can do it is if you take a couple of our more popular faculties to get to university, you need something which we call UAI (University of New South Wales Admission Index). To get into medicine at UNSW you need to have a pass mark of 99. 8%. To get into law and commerce you need a pass mark of 97.5%. Now a lot of you in this room tonight will know what I mean when I say that Chinese and Vietnamese especially value education and therefore it wouldn't be surprising to know that proportionally more Chinese and Vietnamese kids get their 99.8's and 97. 5's. //
I took a university graduation on Friday before I came up here. It was a commerce graduation and of 200 graduates, 150 were Asian. Half of those were local kids, the other half were overseas. Commerce is something that is particularly popular, particularly in Hong Kong and Singapore, but it's probably a reasonable indication of what is happening. And all I am really trying to make a point about is that if we accept money from overseas students and from overseas families, then there is a responsibility that we give them the good education, the good experience. I'm not saying we don't do it, but I think what is important is that we recognize that the experience we are giving them is potentially threatened by the large numbers coming in which are not being matched by the provision of adequate resources to service them. I think it's great to take more and more students as long as we can service them properly. //
