    If you are planning to study in the United States, you need to consider several factors. Everyone has different opinions about where the best places to live in also; the best places to live are not always home to the best schools. Finally, many schools specialize in different areas of study. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, for example, is a great school for computer science and technology-based fields of study, However, if you want to study oceanography, your interests may be better served by attending school in a place that is on a coastline or near the ocean.

    Now I am sure that you know which schools are considered the best in the country. So I will tell you about which states I believe are the best to live in.

    California is a nice state. Northern California specifically has very good weather. Los Angeles in southern California is another story though. Life in LA is full of excitement and fast, and sometimes—dangerous. As for me, I enjoyed the history and culture. The weather is not as perfect as California, but it is still quite nice. My favorite area of America is the Mid-west. Middle America, I think, is home to the true American sense of values. In addition, there are many good universities there.  

    Also, you need to think about your likes and dislikes and then research the various states. You like sunshine and hate snow? Then you probably won’t like the Midwest or even the Northeast. Open space, nature and peace and quiet? Then you should stay away from America’s larger cities. Are you interested in government? Then Washington D.C. is the only place for you. Whatever you decided put some thought into it. The place you live could be the difference between a great study abroad experience and a state of great suffering on earth.

    From the first paragraph we can conclude that in the U.S.A. __________.

    all colleges and universities lie in big cities

    all colleges and universities lie in beautiful places

    famous colleges and universities lie in nice places

    famous colleges and universities may not lie in nice places

    What should be considered first if you want to study in the U.S.A.?

    A. The climate.       B. The scenery.        C. The study condition.       D. The living condition.

    If you study in Middle America, you can probably _______.

    find the best universities

    feel the real character of the nation

    meet the most famous professors there

    face more difficulty

    From the last paragraph of this passage we can get to know that ________.

    Washington is the largest city in the U.S.A.

    Washington is the political center of the U.S.A.

    you can’t find sunshine in the Midwest

    you can’t find any universities out of big cities in the U.S.A.
