3.International students are allowed to work for the university they study at or for a business at the school.But the business must directly provide a service for students.You could work at the bookstore,for example,but not for a company that is building something at the school.Also,a foreign student cannot take the place of an American in a job.
International students can work 20hours a week while having classes; more during school breaks.You can work until you finish your studies.
International students normally cannot take a job that has nothing to do with their school.But the government may give permission if students are suddenly faced with difficulties.Examples include large medical bills,the shortage of financial (财政上的) aid or an unexpected change in the financial support.
Students must also meet other conditions (条件).They must have studied at their American school for at least one year.Students must ask for permission again after a year if they want to continue an off-campus (校外的) job.
International students who will be studying at graduate school can apply (申请) for some jobs before they come to the United States.A good example is a university job like a teaching or research assistant.
Some schools pay their assistants.Others provide free education in return.Many do both.Graduate assistants might teach,give tests,grade work,help with research and clean the offices.Many universities now provide language training for foreign teaching assistants to help them improve their English.Some schools ask foreign students to pass an English speaking test before they are allowed to teach.
International student offices at schools have to provide information on students each term for the Department of Homeland Security.Students who  violate visa (签证) rules-for example,by working off-campus without permission-could be sent home.

4.A new study shows students who write notes by hand during lectures perform better on exams than those who use laptops.
Students are increasingly using laptops for note-taking because of speed and legib ility(清晰度).But the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts they have been taught.
Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased the tendency to make notes"mindlessly"by taking down word for word what the professor said.
In the first experiment,students were given either a laptop or pen and paper.They listened to the same lectures and were told to use their usual note-taking skills.Thirty minutes after the talk,they were examined on their ability to remember facts and on how well they understood concepts.
The researchers found that laptop users took twice as many notes as those who wrote by hand.However,the typists performed worse at remembering and applying the concepts.Both groups scored similarly when it came to memorizing facts.
The researcher's report said,"While more notes are beneficial,if the notes are taken mindlessly,as is more likely the case on a laptop,the benefit disappears."
In another experiment aimed at testing long-term memory,students took notes as before but were tested a week after the lecture.This time,the students who wrote notes by hand performed significantly better on the exam.
These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding,but that they also lead to superior revision in the future.
 
24.More and more students favor laptops for note-taking because they canA.
A.write more notes                         
B.digest concepts better.
C.get higher scores                          
D.understand lectures better
25.While taking notes,laptop users tend to beB.
A.skillful.
B.mindless.
C.thoughtful.
D.tireless.
26.The author of the passage aims toC.
A.examine the importance of long-term memory.
B.stress the benefit of taking notes by hand
C.explain the process of taking notes
D.promote the use of lap tops.
27.The passage is likely to appear inC.
