Tens of thousands, or even more, people can take these classes all at once. You can be anywhere in the world to take a MOOC. (1) All you need is a computer and a network connection. MOOCs add to a tradition of what is known as distance learning.

For years, many colleges have offered classes that are taught partly or mostly online. MOOCs are available in subjects like Computer Science, Engineering orMechanics.

 Scott Anderson teaches Philosophy at the University of British Columbia in Canada. He sees (3)both good and bad sides of MOOCs.  He says, “There are parts that will be fine. Mostly when students listen to a lecture, there is no special reason why they need to be physically present to hear and get it. There is certainly no reason why they need to be physically present to get the readings and to think about these things.” Mr.Anderson also adds that increased numbers of students in MOOCs can mean (2)less communication between them and teachers. He says two ways to deal with this are by adding more teachers and setting up online discussion groups.

1.    What do you need to attend MOOCs? ( D)

2.    What is the bad side of MOOCs?  (C)

New York State plans to shut off the thundering waters of Niagara Falls-again. At least, the American side of the falls. This “once in a lifetime” event actually may take place twice in some folks’ lives. The New York stated parks system wants to turn off the falls on the American side sometime in the next two to three years (1)to replace two 115-year-old stone bridges that allow pedestrians, park vehicles and utilities access to Goat Island.

The American side of the falls were shut off in 1969 to study the build up of rock at the base of the falls. When that happened, people came from all over the world to see the falls turned off. People are curious by nature. They want to see what’s underneath. In fact, those who first came to have a look did see something. (2)They found millions of coins on the bottom.

 Questions:

1.    Why does New York State want to turn offNiagara Falls?    (B)

2.    What did people find when Niagara Falls wereshut off in 1969?  (D)
