However, a closer look at their reasons for studying at the university will enable us to

classify
them
roughly
into
three
groups:
those
who
have
a(n)
(2)
passion
for
learning, those who wish to (3)
attain
a bright future, and those who learn with no
definite purpose.
Firstly, there are many students who learn simply because they (4)
pursue
their
goal
of
learning.

read
a
wealth
of
British
and
American
novels
because
they
are
keenly
interested
in
literature.

of
the
computer
screen,
working
on
a
new
program,
(5)
virtually
day
and
night,
because
they
find
some computer programs (6)
fascinating
, and they dream of becoming a "Bill Gates"
