What Selectivity Means for YouUnderstanding Admission Factors College admission officers across most of the nation report the same news: The number of applicants is rising, making admission more competitive. Remember, "more selective" doesn’’t mean "better." Our society often associates exclusivity with higher value, but that notion isn’’t true for college. Find match with your interests, objectives, characteristics, and needs.Why Are Applications Increasing The increase comes from a surge in births during the 1980s. Children of the baby boomers are coming of age. Experts predict applications will continue to rise faster than openings at most colleges through about 2010. "Most schools are a little more selective than they were maybe 10 years ago," says Joan Isaac-Mohr, Vice President and Dean of Admissions at Quinnipiac University in Connecticut. This can mean more pressure for students going through the application process.Benefits of Increased Selectivity There’’s a silver lining. As Isaac-Mohr points out, increased selectivity means better students are going to all colleges, broadening your choice of schools with a high-achieving student population. The number of applicants is rising, making admission more competitive. Ann Wright, Vice President for Enrollment at Rice University in Texas, agrees. "There are lots of schools where students can be happy and successful," she says. Both experts encourage students and parents to consider a range of schools, rather than focusing on a single institution. Community colleges, for example, can allow you to spend two years improving grades or selecting a career focus before transferring to a four-year university. While you might be taught by a graduate student at a large university, teachers at community colleges are usually professors who primarily want to teach, not conduct research. Smaller class sizes and more access to professors at small public or private colleges can be a boost to students, while some may prefer the energy and variety of a large university. It’’s important for you to determine your needs and academic interests and select five or six schools that make a good fit.What Are Colleges Looking For As you prepare application materials, it can help to know what schools are really looking for in the piles of paperwork. Admission officers evaluate applications in different ways, depending on how selective, or competitive, their college is.The Levels of Selectivity At one extreme are "open admission" colleges. These schools require only a high school diploma and accept students on a first-come, first-served basis. Many community colleges have this policy. At the other extreme are very selective colleges. They admit only a small percentage of applicants each year. Most colleges fall somewhere in between -- Less Selective: As many as 10 or 15 students apply for each spot at very selective schools. Less selective colleges focus on whether applicants meet minimum requirements and whether there’’s room for more students. Acceptable grades are often the only requirement beyond an interest in college study. The SAT I or ACT may be required, but test scores are usually used for course placement, not admission. --More Selective: More selective colleges consider course work, grades, test scores, recommendations, and essays. The major factor may be whether you are ready for college-level study. It’’s possible to be denied admission because of a weakness or a lack of interest in higher education. --Very Selective: As many as 10 or 15 students apply for each spot at very selective schools. Admission officers look carefully at every aspect of a student’’s high school experience, from academic strength to test scores. Since many applicants are strong academically, other factors ― such as your essay - are critical. Although they receive a great deal of publicity, only a small number of colleges (fewer than 100) are this selective. Admission FactorsSelective colleges consider these factors for admission:-courses taken-counselor/teacher recommendations-ethnicity-grades-application questions and essays-geographic location-grade point average-personal interview-alumni relationship-rank in class-activities outside the classroom-major/college applied to-admission test results-special talents and skills There’’s no general agreement about which of these factors are ranked more important. However, most admission officers place the most weight on your high school record.How Important Are Extracurricular (课外的) Activities The significance of activities has been exaggerated. While schools do consider them, they’’re looking to see if you’’ve shown a long-term commitment in one or two areas.Need-Blind Admission Most colleges have a need-blind admission policy. This means they decide whether to make an offer of admission without considering your family’’s financial situation. Other colleges are MORE sensitive; they do consider your family’’s financial situation in the admission process. These colleges know they can’’t satisfy the financial aid needs of all applicants. Some schools use need-sensitive admission when deciding to accept a borderline student or to pull a student off of the waiting list.College Application FAQs Do I have a better chance of getting in if I apply early Nadine K. Maxwell: Many students apply early decision because they believe that there is an advantage to applying early and that their chances of being admitted are greater. Actually this can vary from school to school and year to year and may depend upon the applicant pool at the school where you are applying. Do your homework first and check to see what percentage of the students in the previous graduating classes at your high school were admitted early decision to a specific college or university. Are you qualified to apply as early decision If you are, and this is a school you really wish to attend, then apply early decision. How much time should I give my teachers to write letters of recommendation for me Mary Lee Hoganson: Teachers should always receive a minimum of two weeks notice, prior to the postmark date. Be sure to ask in a way that allows a teacher to decline comfortably if he/she does not have time to do an adequate job. For example: "Do you feel you know me well enough, and do you have enough time to write a supportive letter of recommendation for me to..." Give the teacher a stamped envelope addressed to the college, along with any recommendation form provided by the college. I want to send additional material that I think will support my application Is this OK Nadine K. Maxwell: It depends on what you want to send. Most colleges and universities read hundreds or maybe thousands of applications, and they expect to find the information that they need to make an admissions decision about you in their specific application form. It is OK to send an additional letter of information to explain something that cannot be explained on the application forms, but other items that students sometimes send are not helpful and may be viewed as trying to distract the admissions staff from the actual application. Talk to your guidance counselor about any additional items that you are thinking about sending. Their knowledge and experience will be helpful to you in making this decision. Big size makes good college, is that right Nadine K. Maxwell: Big universities clearly have many benefits, but there are also a few drawbacks. For example, while you may enroll in a course with a professor that is well-known in his or her field, more often than not the course will mostly be taught by teaching assistants (TAs). The more distinguished professors are often focused on conducting research, publishing their work, and overseeing graduate thesis projects. If you’’re considering a large university, be sure to find out what percentage of classes are taught by TAs and how many are taught by professors. Another consideration is the red tape (烦琐的手续) often associated with big school administration. Though large universities offer countless courses, it’’s not so easy to take anything you want. If you’’re a psychology major, for example, taking a business course may require a half a dozen signatures or more. Again, when visiting the school, be sure to ask what is required in order to take courses outside of your major. Finally, while huge class sizes may be exciting for some, they can be overwhelming for others. Introductory classes at big colleges sometimes include hundreds of students, making it an intimidating environment to ask a question, and all too easy to fall asleep, unnoticed, in the back of a lecture hall.Admission officers evaluate applications in the same way.

My daughter Allie is leaving for college in a week. Her room is piled with shopping bags filled with blankets, towels, jeans, sweaters. She won’t talk about going.I say, “I’m going to miss you,” and she gives me one of her looks and leaves the room. Another time I say, in a voice so friendly it surprises even me: “Do you think you’ll take your posters and pictures with you, or will you get new ones at college?”She answers, her voice filled with annoyance, “How should I know?”　My daughter is off with friends most of the time. Yesterday was the last day she’d have until Christmas with her friend Katharine, whom she’s known since kindergarten. Soon, it will be her last day with Sarah, Claire, Heather... and then it will be her last day with me.　My friend Karen told me, “The August before I left for college, I screamed at my mother the whole month. Be prepared.”　I stand in the kitchen, watching Allie make a glass of iced tea. Her face, once so open and trusting, is closed to me. I struggle to think of something to say to her, something meaningful and warm. I want her to know I’m excited about the college she has chosen, that I know the adventure of her life is just starting and that I am proud of her. But the look on her face is so mad that I think she might hit me if I open my mouth.　One night — after a long period of silence between us — I asked what I might have done or said to make her angry with me. She sighed and said, “Mom, you haven’t done anything. It’s fine.” It is fine — just distant.　Somehow in the past we had always found some way to connect. When Allie was a baby, I would go to the day-care center after work. I’d find a quiet spot and she would nurse — our eyes locked together, reconnecting with each other.　In middle school, when other mothers were already regretting the distant relationship they felt with their adolescent daughters, I hit upon a solution: rescue measures. I would show up occasionally at school, sign her out of class and take her somewhere — out to lunch, to the movies, once for a long walk on the beach. It may sound irresponsible, but it kept us close when other mothers and daughters were quarrelling. We talked about everything on those outings — outings we kept secret from family and friends.　When she started high school, I’d get up with her in the morning to make her a sandwich for lunch, and we’d silently drink a cup of tea together before the 6:40 bus came.　A couple of times during her senior year I went into her room at night, the light off, but before she went to sleep. I’d sit on the edge of her bed, and she’d tell me about problems: a teacher who lowered her grade because she was too shy to talk in class, a boy who teased her, a friend who had started smoking. Her voice, coming out of the darkness, was young and questioning.　A few days later I’d hear her on the phone, repeating some of the things I had said, things she had adopted for her own.　But now we are having two kinds of partings. I want to say good-bye in a romantic way. For example, we can go to lunch and lean across the table and say how much we will miss each other. I want smiles through tears, bittersweet moments of memory and the chance to offer some last bits of wisdom.But as she prepares to depart, Allie has hidden her feelings. When I reach to touch her arm, she pulls away. She turns down every invitation I extend. She lies on her bed, reading Emily Dickinson until I say I have always loved Emily Dickinson, and then she closes the book.Some say the tighter your bond with your child, the greater her need to break away, to establish her own identity in the world. The more it will hurt, they say. A friend of mine who went through a difficult time with her daughter but now has become close to her again, tells me, “Your daughter will be back to you.” “I don’t know,” I say. I sometimes feel so angry that I want to go over and shake Allie. I want to say, “Talk to me — or you’re grounded!” I feel myself wanting to say that most horrible of all mother phrases: “Think of everything I’ve done for you.”Late one night, as I’m getting ready for bed she comes to the bathroom door and watches me brush my teeth. For a moment, I think I must be brushing my teeth in a way she doesn’t approve of. But then she says, “I want to read you something.” It’s a brochure from her college. “These are tips for parents.”I watch her face as she reads the advice aloud: “ ‘Don’t ask your child if she is homesick,’ it says. ‘She might feel bad the first few weeks, but don’t let it worry you. This is a natural time of transition. Write her letters and call her a lot. Send a package of candies...’ ”Her voice breaks, and she comes over to me and buries her head in my shoulder. I stroke her hair, lightly, afraid she’ll run if I say a word. We stand there together for long moments, swaying. Reconnecting.I know it will be hard again. It’s likely there will be a fight about something. But I am grateful to be standing in here at midnight, both of us tired and sad, toothpaste spread on my chin, holding tight to—while also letting go of—my daughter who is trying to say good-bye.1.Why is there a period of silence between the author and Allie one night?A.

[2015·高考湖南卷，(C)66~70] Directions: Read the following passage . The passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D . Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage. C 　　Have your parents ever inspected your room to see if you cleaned it properly?Imagine having your entire house,garage,and yard inspected at any time-with no warning.Inspections were a regular part of lighthouse (灯塔) living,and a keeper’s reputation depended on the results. A few times each year, an inspector arrived to look over the entire light station.The inspections were supposed to be a surprise,but keepers sometimes had advance notice. 　　Once lighthouses had telephones,keepers would call each other to warn that the inspector was approaching.After boats began flying special flags noting the inspector was aboard,the keeper’s family made it a game to see who could notice the boat first. As soon as someone spotted the boat, everyone would do last-minute tidying and change into fancy clothes. The keeper then scurried to put on his dress uniform and cap.Children of keepers remember inspectors wearing white gloves to run their fingers over door frames and windowsills looking for dust. 　　Despite the serious nature of inspections,they resulted in some funny moments.Betty Byrnes remembered when her mother did not have time to wash all the dishes before an inspection.At the time,people did not have dishwashers in their homes.In an effort to clean up quickly,Mrs.Byrnes tossed all the dishes into a big bread pan,covered them with a cloth,and stuck them in the oven.If the inspector opened the oven door,it would look like bread was baking. He never did. 　　One day,Glenn Furst’s mother put oil on the kitchen floor just before the inspector entered their house. Like floor wax, the oil made the floors shiny and helped protect the wood. This time, though, she used a little too much oil. When the inspector extended his hand to greet Glenn’s mother, he slipped on the freshly oiled surface. “He came across that floor waving his arms like a young bird attempting its first flight,”Glenn later wrote.After he steadied himself,he shook Glenn’s mother’s hand,and the inspection continued as though nothing had happened. (1) What does Paragraph 1 tell us about the inspection at the light station? A. It was carried out once a year. B. It was often announced in advance. C. It was important for the keeper’s fame. D. It was focused on the garage and yard. (2) The family began making preparations immediately after 　　　　. A. one of the members saw the boat B. a warning call reached the lighthouse C. the keeper put on the dress uniform and cap D. the inspector flew special flags in the distance (3) Mrs.Byrnes put the dishes in the oven because this would 　　　　. A. result in some fun B. speed up washing them C. make her home look tidy D. be a demand from the inspector (4) If the inspector had opened the oven door,he would have seen 　　　　. A. an empty pan B. many clean dishes C. pieces of baked bread D. a cloth covering something (5) The inspector waved his arms 　　　　. A. to try his best to keep steady B. to show his satisfaction with the floor C. to extend a warm greeting to Glenn’s mother D. to express his intention to continue the inspection
