Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.

 

American movies create myths about college life in the United States. These stories are entertaining, but they are not true. You have to look beyond Hollywood movies to understand what college is really like.

Thanks to the movies, many people believe that college students party and socialize more than they study. Movies almost never show students working hard in class or in the library. Instead, movies show them eating, talking, hanging out, or dancing to loud music at wild parties. While it is true that American students have the freedom to participate in activities, they also have academic responsibilities. In order to succeed, they have to attend classes and study hard.

Another movie myth is that athletics is the only important extracurricular activity. In fact, there is a wide variety of nonacademic activities on campus such as special clubs, service organizations, art, and theater programs. This variety allows students to choose what interests them. Even more important, after graduation, students’ résumés look better to employers if they list a few extracurricular activities.

Most students in the movies can easily afford higher education. If only this were true! While it is true that some American college students are wealthy, most are from families with moderate incomes. Up to 80% of them get some type of financial aid. Students from middle and lower-income families often work part-time throughout their college years. There is one thing that many college students have in common, but it is not something you will see in the movies. They have parents who think higher education is a priority, a necessary and important part of their children's lives.

Movies about college life usually have characters that are extreme in some way: super athletic, super intelligent, super wealthy, super glamorous, etc. Movies use these stereotypes, along with other myths of romance and adventure because audiences like going to movies that include these elements. Of course, real college students are not like movie characters at all.

So the next time you want a taste of the college experience, do not go to the movies. Look at some college websites or brochures instead. Take a walk around your local college campus. Visit a few classes. True, you may not be able to see the same people or exciting action you will see in the movies, but you can be sure that there are plenty of academic adventures going on all around you !

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 43 to 50.

 

It’s called 42 – the name taken from the answer to the meaning of life, from the science fiction series The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. 42 was founded by French technology billionaire Xavier Niel, whose backing means there are no tuition fees and accommodation is free. Mr Niel and his co-founders come from the world of technology and start-ups, and they are trying to do to education what Facebook did to communication and Airbnb to accommodation.
          Students at 42 are given a choice of projects that they might be set in a job as a software engineer – perhaps to design a website or a computer game. They complete a project using resources freely available on the Internet and by seeking help from their fellow students, who work alongside them in a large open-plan room full of computers. Another student will then be randomly assigned to mark their work.
          The founders claim this method of learning makes up for shortcomings in the traditional education system, which they say encourages students to be passive recipients of knowledge. “Peer-to-peer learning develops students with the confidence to search for solutions by themselves, often in quite creative and ingenious ways.”
Like in computer games, the students are asked to design and they go up a level by completing a
project. They graduate when they reach level 21, which usually takes three to five years. And at the end, there is a certificate but no formal degree. Recent graduates are now working at companies including IBM, Amazon, and Tesla, as well as starting their own firms.
“The feedback we have had from employers is that our graduates are more apt to go off and find out information for themselves, rather than asking their supervisors what to do next,” says Brittany Bir, chief operating officer of 42 in California and a graduate of its sister school in Paris. Ms Bir says 42’s graduates will be better able to work with others and discuss and defend their ideas – an important skill in the “real world” of work.
“This is particularly important in computer programming, where individuals are notorious for lacking certain human skills,” she says.
But could 42’s model of teacherless learning work in mainstream universities? Brittany Bir admits 42’s methods do not suit all students. “It suits individuals who are very disciplined and self-motivated, and who are not scared by having the freedom to work at their own pace,” she says.
                                                                        (Adapted from http://www.bbc.com/news/business-37694248)

        A. a kind of school                 B. a type of accommodation
        C. an innovation in technology         D. a tool of virtual communication

        A. students at 42         B. projects         C. resources     D. software engineers

        A. a job that a French software engineer always does
        B. a choice of assignment that students at 42 have to complete
        C. a free resource available on the Internet
        D. a help that students at 42 get for their work
Question 46: What do 42’s graduates receive on completion of their course?
        A. a certificate         B. a degree         C. a project         D. a design
Question 47: Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
      A. The founders of 42 share the idea of providing free service on Facebook.

      C. The students of 42 are required to play computer games during their course.
      D. 42’s peer-to-peer approach promotes active learning and working.
Question 48: According to Ms Bir, 42’s graduates will be able to improve ______.
    A. the skills of giving feedback
    B. the skills of searching for information
    C. the skills of teamwork and debating
    D. the skills of software programming
Question 49: The word “notorious” in paragraph 5 can be best replaced by ______.
    A. respectable         B. incompetent         C. infamous         D. memorable
Question 50: It can be inferred from the passage that ______.
