Summary
Listen to the passage. For questions 26—30, complete the notes using no more than three words for each blank.
Some universities in the UK are disappointed by the poor levels of literacy and numeracy among undergraduates. Most of the lecturers at top British universities say that the majority of school-leavers have got a "fear of numbers" and poor grammar. These concerns are supported by the results of a survey conducted by the Nuffield Review.
The survey approached over half of the universities in the UK, and interviewed around 250 lecturers and admissions tutors. The results of the survey are worrying. Although the vast majority of students pass their secondary school exams, a small minority still require additional help with English and maths at university. A few universities offer courses ranging from remedial maths to essay writing because of the problem. No one from the universities surveyed believed that the English and maths standards of undergraduates are acceptable.
The people surveyed gave different theories for the decline in spelling and writing standards. Some lecturers at universities blame computers and the Internet. Computers have spellcheckers, calculators and spreadsheets, so students don’t have to check their work for themselves. One tutor added, "Students copy essays from the Internet. Reading books is a lost skill". Also, some experts suggest a link between low reading levels and an increase in time spent watching TV. They argue that people have got little time for anything else because they’re watching so much TV.
