Many people in high school cannot wait to go to college and leave their hometowns behind.Questions arise, though,when it comes to all of the decisions involved in choosing a college.
One of the first considerations may be financial.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.
School size also plays a major role in the decision process.If you want to get to know your teachers and avoid feeling like just a number,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.
Finally,one must take into consideration the colleges to 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.

Bad teeth can be painful and even be deadly. Infections of the gums (牙龈) and teeth can release bacteria into the blood system. Those bacteria can increase the chance of a heart attack or stroke and worsen the effects of other diseases. And adults are not the only ones at risk. For example, a 12?-year-?old boy died when a tooth infection spread to his brain in 2007 in Washington. Experts said it might have been prevented had he received the dental care he needed.
Experts say good dental care starts at birth. Breast milk，they say，is the best food for the healthy development of teeth. Breast milk can help slow bacterial growth and acid production in the mouth. But dentists say a baby’s gums and early teeth should be cleaned after each feeding by using a cloth with a little warm water. Experts say if you decide to put your baby to sleep with a bottle, give only water.
When baby teeth begin to appear，you can clean them with a wet toothbrush. Dentists say it is important to find soft toothbrushes made especially for babies and to use them very gently. The use of fluoride (氟化物) to protect teeth is common in many parts of the world. For example, it is often added to drinking water supplies. The fluoride mixes with enamel (釉质)，the hard surface on teeth, to help prevent holes from forming.
But young children often swallow toothpaste when they brush their teeth. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry notes that swallowing fluoridated toothpaste can cause problems. So young children should be carefully watched when they brush their teeth. And only a small amount of fluoridated toothpaste, the size of a pea, should be used.
Parents often wonder what effect finger sucking might have on their baby’s teeth. Dental experts generally agree that this is fine early in life. Most children stop sucking their fingers by the age of four. If it continues，experts advise parents to talk to their children’s dentists or doctors because it could interfere with the correct development of permanent teeth.
Dentists say children should have their first dental visit at least by the time they are one year old. They say babies should be examined when their first teeth appear—usually at around six months.
1.What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?
A. Bad teeth can be a threat to people’s health.
B. Bad teeth come along with other health problems.
C. Tooth infections can spread to brain easily.
D. Dental care should be done at an early age.
2.According to the passage, what is the function of fluoride?
A. Making the surface on teeth much cleaner.
B. Protecting gums from being infected.
C. Keeping holes on teeth from forming.
D. Slowing down bacterial growth and acid production.
3.What is the purpose of the author in writing the passage?
A. To warn us of the deadly infections of gums and teeth.
B. To introduce the advantages of fluoridated toothpaste.
C. To draw our attention to the dental care of young children.
D. To present the research results about dental care.
