@Huitian Mao: what exactly is your question? Are you unsure how to load the data into MATLAB, or how to write a function, or how to pass arguments, or ... ?
Did you start reading the documentation for loading data, or for how to write functions?
You should start be working through the introductory tutorials, which will give you lots of important skill for using and understanding MATLAB:
So, what bit is causing you problem?

See this as an example and write for your case:
student = struct ;
student(1).name = 'Tom' ;
student(1).gender = 'm' ;
student(1).age = 15 ;
student(2).name = 'Dick' ;
student(2).gender = 'f' ;
student(2).age = 13 ;
student(3).name = 'Harry' ;
student(3).gender = 'm' ;
student(3).age = 10 ;
student(1)
student(2)
student(3)
