input: For the second time since the U.S.-led effort to counter ISIS began, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Martin Dempsey, said he would not rule out asking the President to send U.S. ground troops into Iraq. 

"I've never been limited in my ability to make a recommendation of any size or sort to the President of the United States," Dempsey told the House Armed Services Committee on Thursday, adding that he is always re-evaluating the situation in Iraq. 

Dempsey told the committee that he could envision scenarios in which a U.S. ground contingent would be necessary in Iraq, particularly if the coalition moves to retake Mosul or the western border with Syria. 

"I'm not predicting at this point that I would recommend that those forces in Mosul and along the border would need to be accompanied by U.S. forces," cautioned Dempsey, "but we're certainly considering it." 

Rep. Buck McKeon, R-California, the committee's chairman, expressed concern about President Obama's consistent refusal to consider sending U.S. ground troops to the region. 

"I will not support sending our military into harm's way with their arms tied behind their backs," McKeon said, adding he would block any congressional authorization that specifically barred sending ground forces. 

And while Dempsey said he would not rule out the need for U.S. ground troops in the future, he added: "I just don't foresee a circumstance when it would be in our interest to take this fight on ourselves with a large military contingent."

Q: Lillan Hanson, a college junior, expects to graduate in about two years. Mrs Hanson, a rather unusual student, plans to go on to take more courses after she gets her degree. What makes Mrs Hanson different from most of her classmates? 

What sets Lillian Hanson apart from the college crowd is her age-73 years. She has been going to college, a few courses at a time, for 27 years. 

When Mrs Hanson graduated from high school, she went to her local bank and asked for a loan for college tuition and fees. The banker gave her no encouragement. He didn't think that country girl should be borrowing money to go to college. He thought she should be home doing work in the house or around the farm. So Mrs Hanson went home and raised a family of nine children instead of going to college. She still lives with her husband on the farm that has been in the family for five generations. 

Mrs Hanson never forgot her dream of getting a higher education. When her children were grown, she tried again. 

She finds the hardest part of going back to school at her age is to be sitting in class for long periods of time, because she is not as agile as she used to be. Mrs Hanson often gets up and walks around between classes to keep her joints from getting stiff. At the beginning of a course in using the computer, the other students all gave Mrs Hanson a warm round of applause when she introduced herself and explained why she was there and what her goals were.

Answer the following questions:
1. What does she do to keep from getting too stiff?
2. Why?
3. What did the others do when she made her introduction?
4. Is she a normal student?
