Laptop computers are popular all over the world. People use them on trains and airplanes, in airports and hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also connect students to their classrooms.
Because of the many changes in computer technology , laptop use in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable. As laptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop computers. In addition, the portable computers can connect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries and other resources. State higher-education officials are studying how laptops can help students. State officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities, too.

首先这个问题中包含的关键词有laptop program，和give each student a laptop，在第二段的第一句话 Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students anywhere they want. 中，很容易找到答案to do schoolwork，所以答案选择A.
在最后一段中有Westlake College，所以答案应该在最后一段中寻找。解决这个问题可以用排除法。B选项中的1500名学生没有提及，关于这个大学的历史也没有提到，所以排除B和C. D选项本身就是错误的，所以答案选择A。从The laptops will allow all teachers to use computers in their lessons.这句话中也可以判断出A是正确选择。
这个问题比较常见，主要目的是寻找这篇短文的暗含意义。倒数第二段的最后一句话State officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities, too.，其意思是一些官员正在其他大学对该项目进行测试所以我们还不知道结果，选择D，进而排除A和B，而C选项在文中没有涉及到。
