This week,We talk about the application process for American colleges and universities.This is Part Eight in our Foreign Student Series.Earlier,we explained  how to begin a search for schools by going to one of the American educational advising centers around the world.We also discussed the rules for entering in the United States.  71    
But if your goal is to come to the United States to study,then it is time to make a list of  colleges of universities that interest you.  72   Directors of foreign student admissions say students should apply to at least three schools.
Some students want to attend a small college.Others want to go to a big university.That university in Columbus.Ohio,in the Midwest,has almost fifty-two thousand students.There are students this year from around one hundred fifty countries.Ohio State provides international students with an application on its Web site.  73   Or you can print the forms and mail them with the payment.
Many colleges and universities have their applications and also their catalogs online.You should start on your applications at least two years before you want to begin studies.  74   But answering all the questions is not enough.Another important step is taking admissions tests.The SAT is the college entry test that American high school students most commonly take.  75  Colleges and universities may also require international students to take the TOEFL—the Test of English as a Foreign Language.
A.Completing a college application can take some time.
B.You can pay the application charge online with a credit card.
C.Another one is the ACT.
D.If a really big university appeals to you,then there aye ones like Ohio State.
E.Be sure to choose more than one.
F.And we talked about programs that can be completed online.
G.If you have a general question for our Foreign Student Series,write to special@voanews.com.

阅读下面短文,根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填一个单词
Every year there are hundreds of earthquakes in different parts of the world. In Sept.1923, Tokyo and Yokohama were both destroyed by an earthquake and the fires that followed it. They had to be completely rebuilt. One of the most serious earthquakes was in China’s Shanxi Province in 1556. It killed almost one million people.
We measure an earthquake’s strength on the Richter scale. The Richter scale was introduced in 1935 in Southern California in the USA. It measures earthquakes on a scale of one to ten. Any earthquake measuring five or more is usually serious.
The earth’s crust (地壳) is made up of layers of rock called plates. As these plates move, they sometimes crash against each other, causing the crust to quake. In cities such as Tokyo, where small quakes happen quite often, many modern buildings are designed to be flexible so when the earth moves, they move with it.
Earthquakes can also break up gas or oil pipes. This can cause fires to break out, which can do as much damage as the earthquake itself.
Another effect of earthquakes is tsunamis (海啸). These are huge waves created by earthquakes beneath the sea. They can be many metres high and cause great damage to coastal towns and cities. China, Japan, Russia and the USA have the highest occurrence (发生) of earthquakes in the world.

C
I'm really nervous opening Chatroulette (a website).I don't know if I'm more scared of the possibility of coming face-to-face with a naked (裸体的) guy doing improper things, or the possibility of having to speak to someone normal.But it's that uncertainty that's caused the "game" to explode into an Internet phenomenon.
So, I hesitantly click "play".My face appears in a small box to the left of the screen.I'm a 22-year-old guy, wearing jeans and a T-shirt, and sitting in my warmly lit bedroom —not too threatening, I think.Believing I look welcoming and friendly, I open all features: visual, audio and text.The user can disable these at any time if they feel uncomfortable.
Quickly I find myself face-to-face with my first "partner".A guy with glasses is staring back at me.He looks like he spends too much time in front of the computer."Hey", I say, "how are you going?" "Good," says the guy.Sensing that he was not going to be very talkative, I hit the "next" button.
Just like that, I'm thrown across the world into someone else's bedroom.This time it looks like a middle-aged woman.I must have hit gold because 85 percent of Chatroulette users are male, according to the Wall Street Journal.She's wearing sunglasses and smiles back.Before I can even say a word, she "nexts" me."WHAT?!"
Then, I fly through the Internet and arrive at my next partner.My nightmare, a man is sitting in his computer chair half-naked taking off his pants.Argghh! "Next, next, next!" For the next 30 minutes I keep my cursor (光标) over the "next" button.My experiences continue to be short, shocking, and largely uninteresting.I discouragingly hit "next" after seeing another naked man, and decide to end my session and close the window.This wasn't "the new social media experience" I was hoping for.Maybe it was just a little bit too random (随机的).
64.It is the author's __________ that leads him into Chatroulette.
A.curiosity          B.unwillingness    C.enthusiasm          D.ignorance
65.The underlined word "disable" in Paragraph 2 means __________.
A.store                  B.close                C.misuse                D.copy
66.Among all the partners, __________ seemed to be the least interested in talking with the author.
A.the guy with glasses                      B.the middle-aged woman
C.the man in his computer chair            D.the last man mentioned
67.What is the author's attitude toward Charoulette?
A.Positive.           B.Supportive.       C.Objective.         D.Negative.
