听力原文:Many university students dislike studying history because there is little to get

excited about when historical events are presented in a boring manner. However, I'll never forget my American History professor, Dr. Williamson. Each event leaped from the pages of our text and became as real as the daily news report on the radio.

My favorite lecture concerned the American Revolution. Dr. Williamson set the mood for the study by imitating Paul Revere, a well-known silversmith, working in his shop. The American colonists were angry because of the British control over their lives. Revere felt that war between the British and the colonists was inevitable. Then, Dr. Williamson told us about Revere rowing across. the Charles River from Boston on April 18, 1775. I can see the professor now as he raised his hand to his forehead as if he were looking across the Charles River to the Old North Church in Boston. Suddenly, Revere spotted two lanterns, a signal which meant that the British would attack by sea. He jumped on his horse to warn the villagers of the attack. Professor Williamson reminded us that the first battles of the American Revolution were fought at Concord and at Lexington, Massachusetts, the year before the Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776.

Never before had history seemed so alive to me. And all because a professor cared enough to put his heart into his teaching.

(26)

A.Because history professors are poorly prepared.

B.Because most students are lazy.

C.Because history lectures are not delivered in an interesting way.

D.Because most students feel studying history is a waste of time.

听力原文:In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six

听力原文: In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses, each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.

For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for die student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for great activity in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective work of maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities. With the enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who tins held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in his career.

(33)

A.To live in a different university.

B.To take a particular course in a different university.

C.To live at home and drive to classes.

D.To get two degrees from two different universities.
