     Greg Evans started to study film at Ryerson University, but had a change of heart and switched to social
work at George Brown College in second year. Yet the college recognized only one of Evans' general-interest
credits(学分) from Ryerson, and also made him take English all over again although he had passed it at
university.
     "So I spent time and money taking a course I had already taken before," complained Evans. "The system
really needs to change." Evans was part of a chorus of Ontario students on Monday cheering a new $ 73. 7
million five-year plan to help students switch from college to university, and from university to college.
     After years of urging from students, the Ontario government set up a new Credit Transfer Innovation Fund
to help students move back and forth between the more hands-on courses of community college to the often
broader academic focus of a university degree. "We hear horror stories about students who can't get recognition
from one institution for a very similar course at another, and in one case I believe the same professor was
teaching them both," noted Milloy after announcing the new fund.
     Individual colleges and universities have decided on nearly 500 joint deals to honour each other's credits in
certain courses. Each school is required to set targets for more credit-transfer agreements, and link these
increases to provincial funding.
     More than 4,000 college graduates transfer (转换) to university in Ontarion every year-twice as many as
eight years ago, noted Justin Fox, president of the College Student Alliance. Yet Ontario universities and colleges
have been cautious about transferring credits, in part to avoid copying each other's courses, noted Bonnie
Patterson, president of the Council of Ontario Universities, who welcomed the increased flexibility.
1. What happened when Greg Evans switched to social work at George Brown College?
A. He was considered to be unqualified for social work.
B. His previous credits were not all recognized.
C. He wasn't able to get enough credits.
D. His English didn't reach the required standard.
2. With the new $ 73.7 million five-year plan, students can ____.
A. get enough money to go to university
B. can switch between colleges and universities
C. get enough general-interest credits
D. have a wise choice of courses
3. According to Paragraph 3, Milloy believes ____.
A. it is time that the system was changed
B. the same professor can't teach in different schools
C. students should focus on their chosen courses
D. the students' stories are horrible
4. Ontario universities and colleges have been cautious about transferring credits partly to ____.
A. avoid accepting unqualified students
B. keep their similar courses
C. prevent courses becoming similar
D. attract famous professors
5. What attitude does Bonnie Patterson have towards the transferring system?
A. He is strongly against it.
B. He is very doubtful about it.
C. He thinks it is too flexible.
D. He supports it for its flexibility.

WASHINGTON -Tofu(豆腐)and Soyaburgers (豆饼) may be coming to American school lunch menus. What will the kids say? “Terrible,” said Greg Dudzinski, 17, of Ripon High School in Wisconsin, as he toured the US capital.
“The regular hamburgers are bad enough, so soyaburgers would be a lot worse, offered Zach Richey, 13, of Scottsboro Junior High in Alabama, another tourist. But the United States government – hoping to reduce the amount of fat that children are eating –has approved the use of soy as a meat substitute in meals for schools and day-care centers.Not all kids dislike the change. Mariel Spano, 17, of sandy Greek High School in New York, also visiting the capital, said she likes soyaburgers:“There is less fat, and they are better for you… They taste the same, and they are just as good.”
The government tried to make soy a meat substitute nearly 20 years ago, but later dropped the idea.At the time, the plan was intended as a cost-cutting move. US Agriculture Department officials say that their purpose now is only to make meals healthier.Schools are likely to increase the amount of soy that is mixed with hamburgers and other foods already on their menus, and they will also be looking for food companies to develop new soy products that children will like. “I can’t see putting tofu on a student’s plate and having a good acceptance.
