"Where is the university? is 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 thirty-one self-governing colleges. It has lecture halls, libraries, laboratories, museums and offices throughout the city(32).
    Individual colleges choose their own students (33), who have to meet the minimum entrance requirements set by the university. Undergraduates usually live and study in their colleges, where they are taught in very small groups. Lectures, and laboratory and practical work are organized by the university and held in university buildings.
    There are over ten thousand undergraduates and three thousand five hundred 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 twentieth century, more than sixty university members have won Nobel prizes.
    The university has a huge number of buildings for teaching and research. It has more than sixty specialist subject libraries, as well as the University Library, which, as a copyright library, is entitled to a copy of every book published in Britain(34).
    Examinations are set and degrees are awarded by the university. It allowed women to take the university exams in 1881, but it was not until 1948 that they were awarded degrees(35).

选项 A、Very few of them are engaged in research.
B、They were not awarded degrees until 1948,
C、They have outnumbered male students.
D、They were not treated equally until 1881.

答案 B

解析 从题目选项可以得知,该题考查与学生有关的情况。可以从“It allowed women to take the university exams in 1881,but it was not until 1948 that they were awarded degrees(在1881年,它允许女性学生参加入学考试,但直到1948年他们才授予学位)”得知,女性学生被容许参加入学考试和被授予学位的时间是不同的,故可推测答案。D)项中没提及学校对待男、女生的态度和方式,故不对。
