Exercise 1

College pays off financially. A wide range of statistics shows the economic advantage of a four-year college education. Over a lifetime, students who graduate from college can expect to make about 60% more than those who do not, well over a million dollars more than they would otherwise. But what about the benefits of college that are more difficult to measure? They are equally significant and add up to a lot of value over the course of a lifetime：

College takes students to places they’ve never been to before. College is a passport to different places, different times, and different ways of thinking —from learning new languages to considering the development of human history to diving deep into the building blocks of matter. It gives students a chance to understand themselves differently, seeing how their lives are both like and unlike those who populated other eras(时代)）and other lands.

College introduces students to people they've never met before. One of the most important ways in which students learn, at colleges and universities everywhere, is by interacting with people who are different from themselves both inside and outside the classroom. Students learn more at a place full of engaging people with a wide range of viewpoints.

In these ways and in so many others, college helps students see themselves differently, giving them the room and the license to imagine new possibilities. Yes, it opens opportunities reflected in earning and employment statistics. But, perhaps even more valuable, it opens minds and worlds in ways that are beyond measurement. The value of higher education is symbolized by people who dream bigger and achieve more, who create their own futures and shape their own futures.

试题详解：

1，核心内容——本文是一篇议论文，全文共分四段。第一段主要讲高等教育经济回报丰厚，还具有一些益处，虽然它们难以衡量但却让人终生受益。第二至三段，进一步从两个方面说明这些益处。它们分别是：大学带领学生领略不一样的风景；大学让学生结交素不相识的人。第四段总结：大学不仅为学生创造就业机遇，而且用无法衡量的方式为其敞开了多个世界的大门。

2，写作思路

理清文章脉络，概括段落大意。该文第一段的主题句是“But what about the benefits of college that are more difficult to measure?”。第二至三段为无法衡量但却令人受益终生的益处的两个具体方面。各段的主题句均为每段第一句。第四段主题句为该段第二和第三句，并用but 起承转合，从两个角度来说明大学显性和隐性的益处。

确定表达要点，灵活准确表达。本文的摘要要把全文第一句作为一个要点，因为它是全文的逻辑起点。在确定表达要点后要思考如何准确灵活表达，这是难点。灵活表达的重要技巧是对原来的语言进行同义替换(paraphrase),同时要对相关内容进行整合。第一段要包括两个要点，要点1是全文的逻辑起点，要点2是该段的主题句。根据but可知“what about the benefits of college that are more difficult to measure”一句的言下之意为全文的论述关键，是大学的隐性益处，它们虽然无法衡量但却令人受益终生。为了避免重复，我们可以把“益处（benefits)”表达为“有价值的方面（valuable aspects)”，这样我们就可以整合并表达好要点1和2。因为第二、三段段落间存在比较明显的因果关系，所以要点3和4应该根据各段第一句，即主题句，进行适当的结论推导。第二段主题句的意思是大学带领学生领略不一样的风景。这样我们就可以将其灵活表达为“...motivates students’ self-realization through...”。第三段主题句的意思是大学让学生结交素不相识的人，故将其灵活表达为“shapes students’ diverse perspectives”。要点5是第四段主题句，即该段的第二和第三句，是全文的总结，用“not only... but (also)”的倒装句替换but,表达大学显性和隐性的益处。
