（keep） a balanced diet.发布：2024/5/23 20:38:36组卷：4引用：2难度：0.92264．There are now well over 1，000 colleges and universities that don't require SAT （Scholastic Assessment Test学术能力评估测试） or ACT （American College Test美国大学入学考试） scores in deciding whom to admit，a number that's growing every year.And a new study finds that scores on those tests are of little value in predicting students' performance in college，and raises the question：Should those tests be required at all？
Colleges that have gone"test- optional"enroll and graduate a higher percentage of low- income and first- generation students，and more students from diverse backgrounds.The researchers found in the study，Defining Access：How Test-Optional Works.
"Our research clearly demonstrates that these students graduate often at a higher rate，" said Steve Syverson，an assistant vice chancellor at the University of Washington Bothell，and coauthor of the study. "When a college considers going test-optional，one of the first reactions that people feel is that the college will be admitting less qualified students.Now that deserves no worry any more.
Syverson and his team of researchers studied 28 public and private institutes that no longer require test scores，and tracked about 956，000 individual student records.
Ian Haimowitz，a sophomore at George Washington University，a test- optional school in Washington DC，said in the beginning he felt like a fish out of water.However，lan believed in his potential.He was a straight-A student in high school，but his SAT scores were so low that he didn't think any top school would accept him.Not having to submit his test scores opened the doors to a top selective school.

A large of group presentations，training classes and meetings are done online without losing the face-to-face experience.Web meetings are online meetings where an organizer invites attendees to listen to or watch an online presentation by presenters.Besides，Web meetings can be recorded for later use.
Presenters can take real-time surveys to study how to hold a successful meeting.Some Web meeting software programs can monitor the users' desktop behavior to see if they become distracted from the presentation and begin working on other documents.If so the program can tell presenters when the listeners lose their attention，and how long the distraction lasts.In this way，the presenters will know which parts of their meetings need improving.
Web meetings can work well because they're hosted on a server（服务器）.Images from the presenter's desktop are taken，uploaded to a server and then downloaded by people who have access to the server.Web meetings require a powerful server to deal with several images a second and "serve" them back to thousands of users at the same time.
Companies have two choices when it comes to these servers.They can either buy a special Web meeting server to host their meetings on-site，or they can pay for a Web meeting service every time and let the off-site provider worry about hosting the meetings.The choice depends on how frequently the company holds Web meetings，the average number of people attending the meetings，and the quality of engineering and information technology.
Web meetings are an excellent example of how technology is changing the way we do business.With all the technologies today，the traditional office might soon be a thing of the past.
（1）In what way do some Web meeting software programs help improve the meetings？
A．By tracking the users' state.

（2）It's better for a company to buy a Web meeting server if it.
A．relies little on the quality of IT
B．holds Web meetings twice a week
C．doesn't have so many employees
D．has branches in the same city or province
（3）What can we infer about Web meetings？
A．Web meetings help presenters stay focused.
B．Web meetings work without the help of a server.
C．Web meetings determine the quality of engineering.
D．Web meetings are likely to be widely used.
（4）The purpose of this passage is.
