UNIT 3
There have
been increased demands for higher education to
provide students with better courses
and more opportunities. To deal with
this (1)
(complex)
issue,
colleges and universities are turning
to the Internet for quick
(2)
(access)
to its rich
educational resources. Now the Internet has been
accepted as the (3 (preferred)
technology to many other methods in colleges and
universities. Many
teachers now
routinely (4)
(post)
their
teaching materials online. A growing number of
schools offer
at
least
some
(5)
(undergraduate)
courses
over
the
Internet.
There
are
two
different
models
of
making
use
of
the
Internet
for
higher
education.
The
first

by
using

This
model

and

While

and
it

A

in higher
education, for it is believed
that the Internet can (10)

This,

to

education.

In January 2011, Daniel
Hernandez saved congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords'
life in a mass shooting
in
Tucson.
He
kept
her
alive
by
(1)
(applying)
pressure
to
her
wounds
and
speaking
(2)
(tender)
words
of
sympathy
until
medical
people
arrived.
He
was
(3)
(hailed)
as
a
hero
by
the
public.
Although
his
devotion
to
public
service
is

(remarkable)
,
in
his
book
They
Call
Me
a
Hero:
A
Memoir of My Youth, Hernandez insists
that he is not a hero.
Hernandez said that he initially
resisted the idea of writing a book about his
experience on that day

However,
Hernandez, now a school board member, had come to
realize that he would be interested
in
writing

themselves in
their communities.
When asked if he had any plan with a
second book, Hernandez said his major purpose at
present
was
to
continue
to

his
community
and
pursue
his
passion
as

(advocate)
for
education.
