Yale University announced on Monday that it was planning to create a liberal arts college in Singapore that would be financed entirely by the government there and could, in time, establish a new model for higher education in Asia. While Yale has many international programmes, it has not put its name on an overseas project the way it envisions doing at the National University of Singapore. The new institution, to be called Yale-NUS College, would seek to import Yale’s signature residential college concept — in which students live, study and take classes in an intimate setting — as well as a curriculum that encourages critical thinking and inquiry in the humanities and sciences. But the diplomas would lack the cachet of a full Yale degree: they would be issued by the National University of Singapore. By contrast, New York University’s ambitious new college in Abu Dhabi, also underwritten by the government there, awards N.Y.U. diplomas. Still, Yale would be largely responsible for hiring 100 professors to teach about 1,000 students at the college, which is scheduled to open in 2013. If Yale decides to move forward with a full partnership with the Singapore University, it would control half of the seats on the college’s governing board and would jointly plan the curriculum and admissions strategy. The college is envisioned as a highly elite school within an already prestigious, yet huge and career-focused university. Yale officials said it would draw top students from across Asia, where liberal arts programmes are rare, and attract even more qualified Asian applicants to the New Haven campus of Yale by raising the university’s profile.
Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.
19. Who will finance Yale-NUS College according to the passage?
20. Which of the following statements is true?
21. When is Yale-N.U.S. College scheduled to open?
选项
A、The diplomas of Yale-N.U.S. College would be issued by the National University of Singapore.
B、Yale University would not receive Asian applicants once Yale-N.U.S. College is completed.
C、The National University of Singapore would be largely responsible for hiring 100 professors.
D、Yale-N.U.S. College would draw top students from all around the world.
答案
A
解析
选项中重复出现的Yale-NUS College表明,本题考查该大学的相关情况。短文中提到,但是(Yale—NUS College的)毕业文凭不会有耶鲁大学学位的印章,而是由新加坡国立大学颁发,由此可知,答案为A)。but转折处为常考点,是听音的重点。
