"Where is the University?" is the 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 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 10,000 undergraduates and 3,500 postgraduates. About 40 percent of them are women and some 8 percent from overseas. As well as teaching, research is of major importance. Since the beginning of the 20th century, more than 60 university members have won Nobel Prizes.
    The university has a huge number of buildings for teaching and research It has more than 60 specialized subject libraries, as well as the University Library, which, as a copyright library, is entitled to a copy of every book published in Britain.
    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.
22. Why is it difficult for visitors to locate Cambridge University?
23. What does the passage tell us about the colleges of Cambridge University?
24. What can be learned from the passage about the libraries in Cambridge University?
25. What does the passage say about women students in Cambridge University?

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 题目询问文章讲述了剑桥大学女生的什么情况。关键是要听到文章最后一句:“1881年,这所大学允许女生参加考试,但是直到1948年才授予女生学位。”即B。选项A的内容文中未提及;文中说女生大约占学生总数的40%,故C错误;1881年并没授予女生学位,也就是说那时学校对待她们与对待男生还是不同,故D不正确。
