A common misconception (误解) -about scholarships is that they are only available for the smartest students with the highest GPAs. However, this just isn't even close to true. There are scholarships out there for every type of student seeking a college education. Let's take a look at each type a bit more in depth.

Academic Scholarships

Academic scholarships are also often referred to as merit (优点) scholarships, though a merit scholarship can mean anything that has some level of contest to it. These are fox; the students with the 4.0 GPAs, the years as a part of several extracurricular (课外的) activities and the well- rounded applications. They typically have the highest payouts and are considered very well- known as they are often national awards.

Athletic Scholarships

For students with strong academics (学业的) and physical skills, athletic scholarships are the way to go. There is practically a scholarship for every single sport, from volleyball to football; gymnastics to cheerleading. So, if you are good at anything physical, you should definitely pursue an athletic scholarship.

Scholarships for Minorities

There are also many scholarships for minorities available. Some of these are general and for "all minorities as a collective whole, while others are intended for individual ethnic (种族的) groups. It is also a good idea to apply for a minority scholarship if you are part of fully of a certain ethnicity. You will get to represent your culture and possibly win money -- what more could you ask for?

Scholarships for Women

As with the scholarships for minorities above, there are also scholarships specifically for women. Since colleges were dominated (主宰) by men for many years, scholarships have been created for strong, career-minded women that need assistance paying for college expenses. If you are female, it is strongly recommended you pursue a scholarship for women. Moreover, scholarships for women are typically available in just about any field. Be specific!

1.In the author's opinion, ______.

2.Tom does well in his lessons and is especially good at sports. The best scholarship he can apply for ______.

3.Alice is an Indian -American. She prefers to study her own culture and something about ethnology (民族学). Then she'd better apply for ______.

4. How many scholarships are intended for all ethnic students?

　　Do you dream of a huge comfortable bed? Nearly everyone does. This is not only because rest is necessary for life, but also because there's comfort in a large bed. It's wonderful to stretch out. The narrow single bed really means lonely life in fenced rooms. So, many people buy beds which are even bigger than the traditional double bed. Here, in comfort, they can spend a third of their lives asleep.

　　Perhaps this was why a man called Sir Henry Fanshawe asked a carpener （木匠） to build the biggest bed in England, called The Great Bed of Ware. It was made in about 1580 and soon became famous. For in 1596 a German traveler saw it and noted that it was wide enough for four couples. Poets and playwrights (including Shakespeare in “Twelfth Night”) often mentioned it.

　　This is not surprising for it is a grand piece of work. It is made of oak（像木）and measures 3.3 metres in length and width. Except for its size, it is like other beds of the period, a four-poster bed. The posts, the headboard and the cover are richly decorated. The headboard in particular has carved and painted figures and two panels of inlaid wood which show special structure.

　　The Great Bed of Ware became a curiosity. In 1610 it was placed in a small hotel, the Saracen's Head, in the town of Ware. People came to see it and those who slept in it carved some words and their names on the woodwork, just like modern tourists. Over the years, the bed became covered with words, names and dates; the earliest date is 1653. During the nineteenth century, the old bed was moved from one hotel to another until it was finally shown to the public at two pence a head.

(1) The Great Bed of Ware ________.

[　　]

A．is shown to the public in the Saracen's Head; one ticket costs two Pence

B．was named after the carpenter

C．is big enough for eight persons to sleep in

D．was made because people spend a third of their lives asleep

(2) Ware is the name of ________.

[　　]

(3) We can learn from the passage that ________

[　　]

A．a narrow single bed at home stands for lonely life

B．a German tourist had an effect on making the Great Bed well-known in the world

C．the Great Bed was shown in “Twelfth Night”.

D．it is its size that makes the Great Bed look like other beds of that time

(4) How many years has it been since the first date was carved on the Great Bed?
