In single-parent<br /> families, the mothers may not have (33) __ children to take care of, but they have to raise<br /> their families alone and have to provide for all the housekeeping money. Therefore, the (34)<br /> ___ mothers have to work very hard to earn their living.

The academic year, September to June, is divided into<br /> three quarters of eleven weeks each, beginning in September, January, and March; the<br /> summer quarter, June to August, is composed of shorter sessions of varying length.<br /> There are several advantages and disadvantages to the quarter system. On the plus side,<br /> students who wish to complete three degrees in less than the customary four years may take<br /> advantage of the opportunity to study year round by enrolling in all four quarters. In<br /> addition, although most students begin their programs in the fall quarter, they may enter at<br /> the beginning of any of the other quarters. Finally, since the physical facilities are kept in<br /> operation year round, the resources are used efficiently to serve the greatest number of<br /> students. But there are several disadvantages as well. Many faculty complain that the<br /> eleven-week term is simply not long enough for them to cover the material required by most<br /> college courses. Students also find it difficult to complete the assignments in such a short<br /> period of time.<br /> In order to combine the advantages of the quarter system with those of the semester<br /> system, some colleges and universities have instituted a three-term trimester system. In<br /> fourteen weeks, faculty and students have more time to cover material and finish course<br /> requirements, but the additional term provides more options for admission during the year<br /> and accelerates the degree programs for those students who wish to graduate early.<br /> Question 36: Where would this passage most probably be found?<br /> A. In a college catalog for a university in the United States.<br /> B. In a general guide to colleges and universities in the United States.<br /> C. In an American newspaper.<br /> D. In a dictionary published to the United States.<br /> Question 37: How many terms are there in a quarter system?<br /> A. 4 regular terms and one summer term.<br /> B. 1 regular term and four summer<br /> term.<br /> C. 2 regular terms and two summer term.<br /> D. 3 regular terms and one summer<br /> term.<br /> Question 38: A semester system ______.<br /> A. gives students the chance study year round.<br /> B. not very popular in the United<br /> States<br /> C. has two major sessions a year.<br /> D. has eleven-week sessions<br /> Question 39: Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?<br /> A. The Quarter System.<br /> B. Universities in the United States.<br /> C. The Academic Year<br /> D. The Semester System.<br /> 4<br /> <br /> Question 40: When is the academic year?<br /> A. August to June.<br /> B. September to August.<br /> C. September to June.<br /> D. June to August.<br /> Question 41: The word “customary" in paragraph 2 could best be replaced by ______.<br /> A. traditional<br /> B. limited<br /> C. agreeable<br /> D. lengthy<br /> Question 42: Which of the following characteristics does NOT apply to trimester?<br /> A. They last eleven weeks.<br /> B. They allow students to graduate early<br /> C. They are long enough to cover the material<br /> D. They provide more options for admission.<br /> Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to<br /> indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 43 to 50.<br /> Normally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and<br /> each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In<br /> many American universities the total work for a degree consists of three classes per week<br /> for fifteen weeks; while attending university a student will probably attend two terms each<br /> year. It is possible to spread to period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also<br /> possible for a student to move between one university and another during his degree course,<br /> though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.<br /> For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the<br /> record is useful for the student to show to coming employers. Most of the students feel the<br /> pressure of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for great activity in student<br /> affairs. The students are interested in elections to positions in student organization. The<br /> effective work of keeping orders is usually performed by students who advise the university<br /> authorities. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating<br /> has to appear before a student court. With the large numbers of students, the operation of the<br /> system includes a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one of these positions<br /> is much respected and it will be of importance to him later in his career.<br /> Question 43: According to the first paragraph an American is allowed ______.<br /> A. to take a particular course in a different university<br /> B. to get two degree from two different university<br /> C. to study at home<br /> D. to live in a different university<br /> Question 44: The word “consists of” in paragraph 1 could be best replaced by ______.<br /> A. gets out of<br /> B. composes<br /> C. is made up of<br /> D. insists on<br /> Question 45: Which of the following is useful for students’ future career?<br /> A. an attendance record<br /> B. a disciplinary record<br /> C. an academic record<br /> D. a military record<br /> Question 46: Whom may the students show the record to?<br /> A. the university authorities<br /> B. Other students<br /> C. their family<br /> D. their coming employers<br /> Question 47: American university students are usually under pressure of work because<br /> ______.<br /> A. they are interested in running for positions in student organizations<br /> B. they are heavily involved in students affairs<br /> C. they have to observe strict university regulations<br /> D. their university performance will affect their future careers<br /> 5<br /> <br />
