The oldest college is Peterhouse, which was founded in 1284, and the most recent is Robinson College, which was opened in 1977. The most famous is probably King's College, because of its magnificent church.
The university was exclusively for men until 1871 when the first women's college was opened. Another was opened two years later and a third in 1954. In the 1960s, most colleges opened their doors to both men and women. Almost all the colleges are now mixed, but it will be many years before there are equal numbers of both sexes.

听力原文: Could I have your attention please? Thank you.
As I told you this morning, this afternoon is our shopping afternoon. If you have a look at the back page of your tour programme, you'll see a little map of the city centre, with the names of some of the shops marked. As you won't have too much time, I'm just going to explain to you what they sell.
We're now in the Friendship Shopping Centre. On your right is Larp's, a very good place for shoes and boots, rather than gloves, bags, clothes or others. Opposite that is Li Ning, a good place for sports goods, not cheap, but really pretty. Next door to Li Ning is a place for books. They have got books on almost every subject anyone has ever written about, airplanes to animals, but Chinese only--so none of your English books I'm afraid. If you walk along, there are shops which sell cameras, radios, and so on, which you won't buy, I'm afraid, if you are tired or would like to have a nice cup of afternoon tea, I suggest Splend Tea Shop, where you can have British afternoon tea, with very good home-made cakes, chocolates and others. The shop is two blocks away from here, but within walking distance.
What does the speaker do most probably?
A.He's a teacher.
B.He's a tour guide.
C.He's a shop assistant.

M: Well, I wouldn't put it as bluntly as that. However, I'm not really in favor of exams as a testing device if they are all that is used to assess people's ability.
W: And why is that?
M: For a variety of reasons. Firstly, because I feel that examinations deviate from the aims of the educational process .The goal of exams becomes not learning itself, not increasing our knowledge, but rather the acquisition of pieces of paper which prove that, at some time or other, we were able to do something.
W: But, without exams, how else are other people to know what we can do? How else are selections to be made?
M: With some difficulties, I admit, but I would like to confine the issue to exams at school. I don't think that exams should be a central part of a person's study at school. They are far from being the most suitable way to assess whether learning has taken place and indeed, for some people, they may inhibit learning.
W: Of course, any examination system has its limitations, but I can't see any practical alternative to them. If you cancel exams, what would you put in their place?
M: Well, as I have said, I wouldn't cancel them altogether, but I would greatly reduce their importance as a testing device, and would instead place more emphasis on continuous assessment throughout the year and on project and assignment work. That would also have the merit of keeping students motivated and working hard instead of cramming for a few weeks, or even a few days, before the examination.
W: OK. Now, let's see how the audience look at this problem.
(26)

B.Because he thinks exams can increase our book knowledge.
