"Where is the university?" is a question many visitors to Cambridge ask. But no one could point them in any one direction because there is no campus. The university consists of 31 self-governing colleges. It has lecture halls, libraries, laboratories, museums and offices throughout the city.
Individual colleges choose their own students who have to meet their minimum entrance requirements set by the university. Undergraduates usually live and study in their colleges, where they are taught in very small groups. Lectures, laboratories and practical work are organized by the university and held in university buildings.
There are over 10,000 undergraduates and 3,500 postgraduates. About 40% of them are women and some 8% from overseas. As well as teaching, research is of major importance. Since the beginning of the 20th century more than sixty university members have won Nobel prizes.
The university has a large number of buildings for teaching and research. It has more than 60 specialist subject libraries, as well as the university library, which as the copyright libraries, is entitled to a copy of every book published in Britain.
Examinations are held and degrees are awarded by the university. It allowed women to take the university exams in the 1881, but it was not until 1948 that they were awarded degrees.
Questions 20 to 22 are based on the passage you have just heard.
20. Why is it difficult for a visitor to locate Cambridge University?
21. What can we learn about the colleges of Cambridge University?
22. What does the passage tell us about women students in Cambridge University?
选项
A、All the buildings in the city look alike.
B、There are no signs to direct them.
C、No tour guides are available.
D、The university is everywhere in the city.
答案
D
解析
短文中用转折表述提到But no one could point them in any one direction because there is no campus…lecture halls…throughout the city,即没有人能清楚地知道剑桥大学的方位,因为校园设施遍布整个城市,故答案为D)。But转折处为常考点,其后的句子通常为答案所在。
