It was actually based on a 2016 nonfiction book and the movie did boost sales of the book.Forrest GumpThe 1994 movie which was based on the book by Winston Groom won six Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor for the star Tom Hanks.

But unlike the fast-paced, can't-be-put-down quality of the novel, the movie was boring.Field of DreamsIt's hard to describe the plot of this movie: Ray Kinsella hears a voice telling him to build a baseball field in his Iowa cornfield, and what happens next explores the themes of lost dreams, childhood heroes, and healing the pain of the past.

Classes became harder in high school, and I was even further from a math teacher's dream student. So at the start of my freshman year, I had an aversion to math. It wasn't that I didn*t want to do well, but simply that I didn*t think I was able to do well. "I can't" became my state of mind in all things related to math.However, I was soon to learn that "I can't" was not a choice in Mr. A's class. Mr. A always greeted us with open arms as he said, "Welcome! Smile! It's a great day to be alive! It was clear that Mr.A had a true passion not only for math but for teaching. If Mr.A ever experienced had days in life, he never showed it. Mr.A greeted us with that same smile every day. He encouraged each student, from the top achiever to the “I can't" student.I found myself looking forward to math class, although I still hated the subject itself. Being in Mr.A's presence made me feel good, as if I had the chance to succeed. As the year progressed, I spent increasingly more time on my homework, and I met with Mr.A weekly. My classmates began to do the same, and it became “cool” to have lunch and talk with Mr.A. We didn't know it at the time, but he was changing our attitudes.Though my story is not one of overnight success and I didn't become a straight-A math student, my hard work did begin to pay off and my grades slowly began to climb. There were hard times, of course. Difficult math questions sometimes succeeded in bringing me down, but Mr.A kept reminding me, “Kate, smile! Ifs a great day to be alive! 28.

It was awkward.C. It was challenging.D. It was impressive.31. How did the author change in math?A. She made slow progress.B. She fell in love with math.C. She became a straight-A math student.D. She became comfortable with hard math questions.DWhen it comes to higher education in the United States, one of the biggest issues of discussion and concern in recent years has been the cost. Data from the U.S. Department of Education suggests the average cost of college doubled between 1989 and 2016.James Kvaal is the director of The Institute for College Access and Success. He told VOA that one of the main reasons for the cost increase is reduced government support for colleges and universities. This, in turn, has led schools to raise their prices.Earlier this year, the Center for the Study of Education Policy at Illinois State University published a report on state spending on higher education. The report found a 5% overall increase in proposed spending throughout the country. But Kvaal argues this is still nowhere near the level it was 30 years ago or where it needs to be now. He notes that a lot of students still depend on loans to help pay for their education. To date, about 10% of student borrowers are in default. In other words, they are failing to make the necessary payments toward their debts.Last November, Georgetown University published a study on return on investment in American higher education. Students who attended private colleges and universities made an average of about $73,000 more over 40 years than those who attended public schools. Although the immediate costs to attend a private U.S. university might be higher, the increased cost might be worth it, notes Professor Martin, associate director of the Georgetown Center.One reason these schools have a better return on investment is their reputation. The selectiveness that makes these schools so well-known and well respected, however, creates its own form of inequality. These colleges pay off well if you can afford to go there and if you can get in. But the fact is, the vast majority of people can't do either: They can't afford it.32. Why did the American universities increase their fees?A. They followed the rules of the market.B. They required more pay for teachers.C. They improved their quality of higher education.D. They received less support from the government.33. What is the possible result of the higher cost of education?A. More uneducated people.B. More unpaid debts of students.C. A larger gap between universities.D. An effect on the government's reputation.34. What is Professor Martin's attitude toward the higher costs of private colleges?A. Positive.B. Objective.C. Negative.D. Uncaring.35. Where does this text probably come from?
