Ex. 1. Look at the chart.

What exams do you have to take?

What subjects are you studying? etc.

Ex. 2. Speak about an ideal university. You have the beginning.

Ex. 4. Read the proverbs and say what their general meaning is.

 

Live and learn.

It’s never late to learn.

Ex. 5. Read the interview with Mr. Beer [bi¶], Head of Educational Department in America. Dramatise it.

I = Interviewer

B = Mr Beer

 

I: Let me ask you first, higher education in America is provided by colleges and universities. Explain please, to our readers about the difference.

B: You must remember that the main difference between a college and a university is that the latter is a collection of colleges each of which specialises in a different field. American colleges and universities are either private or public. There are nearly 1900 institutes of higher learning in America. Roughly one third are state institutions, 1,200 are private ones. Only about half of the school children graduate from high school in America and receive a high school diploma. College is getting more expensive every year. Not all American families can afford universities education.

I: Tell us please about curriculum. Has it changed for some years? Is it the same as in England, I mean, for example, classical universities?

B: So I think that the American high school offers a wide variety of courses. In the same school a student can specialise in economics, chemistry and physics, Latin and humanities, or in automobile mechanics. During studies four or five major subjects per year. In addition music and art. The first two years are a continuation of secondary education; then a student begins an intensive study of his special field. It a student fails a course, he repeats only that course and not the work of the entire year. Students are classified as freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors. A freshmen is a first year student, a sophomore is a second year student; a junior, a third year; a senior, a forth year. All students who have graduated from the senior class and who continue studies at a university are classified as advanced students or graduate students.

I: And what about degrees? Do students have opportunities to receive grants?

B: At the conclusion of studies a college or university grants a bachelor’s degree; after one or two additional years of studies – a master’s degree. The highest academic degree is the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD). It make take a number of years to complete the original research work necessary to obtain this degree. College prepares the student for two things: either graduate studies, leading to a master’s or doctor’s degree, or a job immediately after graduation. The majority of college graduates have to apply to public and private employment agencies to get any job, which is not an easy things.

 

Ex. 7. Make up situations.

 

You are going to continue your education in America. Ask the foreigner about principles of further education there.

You are making report for English school about our system of higher education.
