Although most universities in the United States are on a semester system, which offers classes in the fall and spring, some schools observe a quarter system comprised of fall, winter, spring, and summer quarters. The academic year, September to June, is divided into three quarters of eleven weeks each beginning in September, January, and March: the summer quarter, June to August, is composed of shorter sessions of vary length. There are several advantages and disadvantages to the quarter system. On the plus side, students who wish to complete their degrees in less than the customary four years may take advantage of the opportunity to study year round by enrolling in all four quarters. In addition, although most students begin their programs in the fall quarter, they may enter at the beginning of any other quarters. Finally, since the physical facilities are kept in operation year round, the resources are used effectively to serve the greatest number of students. But there are several disadvantages as well. Many faculty complain that eleven-week term is simply not enough for them to cover the material required by most college coursed. Students also find it difficult to complete the assignments in such a short period of time. In order to combine the advantages of the quarter system with those of the semester system some colleges and universities have instituted a three-term trimester system. In fourteen weeks, faculty and students have more time to cover material and finish course requirements, but the additional term provides options for admission during the year and accelerates the degree programs for those students who wish to graduate early.

The Semester System Question 25: A semester system___ A. has eleven-week sessions B. gives students the opportunity to study year round C.

3. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 31 to 35. How many people do you communicate with in a day? Probably a lot more than you did ten years ago. With a few pieces of equipment, we can ‘talk’ to people in more and more ways, not (31)___ face-to-face and on the phone, but also via the Internet. It is very important, therefore, for everyone to try and improve their communication skills. Despite all the technological advances of (32)___ years, the art of good conversation is still at the heart of successful communication. (33) ___ it’s a good idea to remember the four golden rules of good communication. Firstly, be as clear as you can. Misunderstandings arise if we don’t say exactly what we mean. Secondly, we have to work hard at listening. Pay attention to what the other person is saying. Thirdly, ask other people what they think, don’t only tell them what you think. And finally show respect for people, give them time to say what they want, and (34)___ interest in what they say. If you (35)___ these rules, you will be a good communicator. Question 31. A. yet B. even C. just D. still Question 32. A. close B. last C. late D. recent Question 33. A. So B. There C. Such D. Or Question 34. A. get B. put C. show D. be Question 35. A. act B. move C. go D. follow 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 43. If we took a look at how people in Europe communicated just one hundred years ago, we would be very surprised to find out that English was hardly used outside the United Kingdom. The language most commonly used between people of different nationalities, and particularly the aristocracy, was French. In fact, French was the language of diplomacy, culture and education. However, that is not the case nowadays. English has replaced French as the international language of communication. Today, there are more people who speak English as a second language than people who speak it as a first language. There are many reasons why English has become the language of international communication. Britain’s colonization of many parts of the world had something to do with it, but it is mainly due to America’s rise to the position of major world power. This helped spread popular American culture throughout the world bringing the language with it. But is it good that English has spread to all parts of the world so quickly? Language specialists seem to be divided over this issue. There are those who claim that it is important to have a language that the people in our increasingly globalized world have in common. According to others, English is associated with a particular culture and therefore promotes that culture at the expense of others. Linguists have suggested “Esperanto”, an artificially put-together language, as a solution to international communication problems but without success. So English will continue being the world language until some other language, maybe Chinese, which is the most widely- spoken native language in the world, takes over as the world’s international language instead of English.

French was much more popular than English. D. only the French aristocracy could speak English. Question 37: What is chiefly responsible for the growth in popularity of English? A.
