Here's a quick overview of several key facts that will serve you well as you aim for an education certificate. Online study can save you big bucks In modern society, it's becoming easier to attend school online. If you choose a school's online program, it's possible to save as much as 50 percent over in－person. __9__. Be aware that institutions that offer online study sometimes have a more limited range of courses and majors for those e－degree programs. Check if your desired subjects are part of the e－curriculum. __10__ Getting your degree and paying for it are two completely different challenges. That's why it's essential to get financing arranged before you choose your college or pick your major. If you don't have the money situation taken care of, schools simply won't let you begin the coursework. The good news is that you can take out a student loan from a private lender and get the entire payment issue resolved quickly. Do career research before choosing a major It's important to choose a major that has realistic job prospects for graduates. You might love art history or linguistic philosophy. __11__. Accounting, IT, advertising and engineering are all sensible choices. Ask the school administrators what their most popular majors are, what job placement rates are, and whether they offer internships for seniors in their fields of study. Concentrate on application essays When you fill out applications for the schools that interest you, don't just rush through the paperwork. Some of it is merely standard, fill－in－the－blank information. __12__. You'll need to be careful when filling out these kinds of items as admissions offices tend to focus on your essay, scores on standardized tests, grades, and job history. A．Arrange financing first B．Work while earning a degree C．Therefore, spend at least one hour on each essay D．But most applications usually contain at least one essay－type question E．If so, it's important to know a few of the basic facts about modern－day degrees F．So, unless you have some special reasons for attending in person, weigh all your choices G．However, unless you aim to restrict your career to teaching, check out more practical majors 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章总结了有助于你获取大学学位的几个注意事项。 8．选E　根据上下文可知，首段总领全文，本句为过渡句，旨在引出后文的几项基本事实。选项E“如果这样的话，了解关于当今社会学位的几项基本事实十分重要”符合语境。 9．选F　由第一个小标题以及上文可知，本段主要围绕“大学在线学习能够帮助省钱”这一点展开，且上文提到了选择在线课程可以省钱，即建议不必亲自去学校，故F选项符合文意。 10．选A　设空处为本段小标题。本段主要谈及获取学位之前，处理好经济问题也很重要。A选项“先安排经济”符合语境。 11．选G　由第三个小标题可知，本段强调了选择专业之前的职业调研的重要性。空格前句提到“选择一个对毕业生来说有现实就业前景的专业是很重要的。你可能喜欢艺术史或语言哲学”，而后句“会计、IT、广告和工程都是明智的选择”所指为更加实用的专业，两句间构成转折关系，G选项承上启下，符合语境。 12．选D　根据第四个小标题及空格前一句“有些申请表只是标准的信息填空”可知，D选项承上启下，呼应标题，符合语境。 Ⅲ.完形填空 2024·日照高三模拟One day, when I woke up to go to school, my mother didn't.She had __13__ in her sleep during the night.After we laid my mother to rest, I went back to school, but I didn't __14__ much to be there.
