问题     At least 2.3 million people took some kind of online course in 2004, according to a recent survey by The Sloan Consortium, an online education group, and two-thirds of colleges offering "face-to-face" courses also offer online ones. But what were once two distinct types of classes are looking more and more alike—and often dipping into the same pool of students.
    At some schools, online courses—originally intended for nontraditional students living far from campus—have proved surprisingly popular with on-campus students. A recent study by South Dakota’s Board of Regents found 42 percent of the students enrolled in its distance-education courses weren’t so distant: they were located on campus at the university that was hosting the online course.
    Numbers vary depending on the policies of particular colleges, but other schools also have students mixing and matching online and "face-to-face" credits. Motives range from lifestyle to accommodating a job schedule to getting into high-demand courses.
    Washington State had about 325 on-campus undergraduates taking one or more distance courses last year. As many as 9,000 students took both distance and in-person classes at Arizona State last year.
The first paragraph mainly tells us that ______.

选项 A、online courses are becoming more important than traditional courses
B、online courses were different from traditional courses
C、online courses are becoming more popular in college education
D、online courses are actually not different from traditional courses

答案C

解析 语义理解题。本题询问文章第一段主要告诉我们什么。第一段的第一句话提到,2004年至少有230万人选修了某些网络课程,三分之二的大学也提供网络课程;第二句话讲了传统的上课形式和现代网络上课形式被同一学习主体使用。这都说明了网络课程在大学教育中越来越受欢迎。所以选项C为正确答案。
