四、阅读理解(第一节共15小题，第二节共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)

第一节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

A

Should people who study science and business pay less for college than people who focus on art and history? That may soon be the case at Florida’s state universities.

In tough economic times, Florida governor Rick Scott wants to lead college students toward careers that will pay off after graduation. There are more jobs available in Florida in the fields of business, engineering, healthcare, science and technology. So why not encourage students to focus on these “high-demand” subjects by charging less tuition for them?

“We assume students go to college because they want to pursue jobs,” Dale Brill said. He is the head of a group of business people, educators and lawmakers who made the recommendation to the governor to keep tuition low for job-friendly areas of academic study. “We all share the goal of students getting jobs and being productive citizens. Some majors are more valuable than others.”

Supporters of the plan have their reasons. More students will choose these “high-demand” majors and get jobs after graduation. The state will gain an

educated workforce that is qualified to fill open jobs. Universities that can show that their

graduates are getting jobs will qualify for more funding from the state.

But critics of the plan say it’s unfair to load humanities majors—those who study literature, philosophy, history and art—with debt while keeping tuition low for so-called “high-demand” majors in business and science. In fact, university professors wrote a letter to Governor Scott arguing that if students majoring in history and other humanities subjects are forced to pay higher tuition, they may simply choose to attend universities in other states.

Still others argue that the plan sets students up for failure.
