Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.
There was a time when college was a place where young adults could expand their horizons. But as tuitions increase, student debt mounts and job prospects for recent graduates remain uncertain, today, students and parents say college should prepare students for a good job.
87.9% of freshmen this year say a very important reason for going to college is ' to be able to get a better job," according to an annual survey by UCLA's Cooperative institutional Research Program. And parents are more likely to strongly agree that vocational school--or no college at al-provides a better pathway to a good job than does a liberal arts education, says a survey by Inside Higher Ed, a trade publication.
The number of schools awarding more than hag of their bachelor's degrees in liberal-arts disciplines, such as history, literature and philosophy, has decreased, from 212 in 1990 to 130 last year, research by Vicki Baker, a professor Albion College in Michigan, shows.
Meanwhile, governors of Texas, Florida, Wisconsin and, most recently, North Carolina, argue that public universities should focus on majors, especially in the fields of science, technology, engineering and math that will meet their state's workforce needs. Even President Obama has made jobs central to his higher-education agenda.
Supporters of the liberal arts say criticisms are based on outdated stereotypes. Many liberal arts colleges, including Shimer, have increased opportunities for internships (实习..North Carolina's Davidson College will start a program this summer that will connect graduating seniors with paid fellowships at non-profits. Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, N. C., posts data so students can see where graduates with their major shave landed jobs--including art history majors at Sotheby's Deloitte Consulting and Kate Spade.
On the other hand, more than 35 business schools last month met to talk about how to incorporate; the liberal arts into their courses. "There's a sense that business education has become too narrow and isn't preparing graduates adequately--for career success, certainly--but also more broadly for lives as engaged citizens," says Judith Samuelson of the non-profit Aspen Institute's Business and Society program which organized the meeting.

What do we learn about college from the first paragraph? A.It can help young adults broaden their horizons.
B.People has changed their requirement of it.
C.It cannot prepare graduates for a good job now.
D.People cannot afford its mounting tuitions.
