6、is Problems with our educational system. I disagree on a lot of the ways that things have happened for a long time in our educational system. It seems that educators just want to give standardized tests, which focus only on academic performance and neglect students abilities and interest in other ar

7、eas. I think there are a lot of people who are very intelligent, but havent had the opportunities they could have had if they had learned in a broader-minded educational system. I feel that a lot of courses that students are required to take in high school are too academic, and, as a result, many ki

9、 cant get into good colleges if they, you know, havent scored well on the math section, even if they are brilliant writers. Another thing that disturbs me is that the so-called weak students are separatedfrom the rest of the school. Some kids are kept in a separate class if their grades are lower th

10、an others. And theyre very aware of their social position, you know. I think it causes them to act in a way that is not really positive. Theyre just acting in a way they are expected. Often their grades go from bad to worse. And thats pretty sad. I think that many of the kids in those classes are in

14、planned to come back in time for the final exam, but, unfortunately, they had a flat tire on the way back and didnt have a spare. As a result, they missed the final. The professor thought it over and then agreed they could make up the final the following day. The guys were relieved and elated. The n

15、ext day, the professor placed them in separate rooms, handed each of them a paper, and told them to begin. They looked at the first problem, worth five points. It was a simple question on a chemical reaction. Cool, they all thought at the same time, each one in his separate room, this is going to be

Over 14,000 people work at Harvard, including more than 2,100 faculty members. Harvard has produced eight American presidents and many

19、 Nobel Prize winners. During its early years, Harvard offered a classic academic course based on the model of English universities, but consistent with the prevailing Puritan philosophy. Although many of its early graduates became ministers in Puritan churches throughout New England, the university

20、was never formally affiliated with a specific religious group. Under President Pusey, Harvard started what was then the largest fundraising campaign in the history of American higher education. It was an 82.5-million-dollar program for the university. The program increased faculty salaries, broadene

21、d student aid, created new professorships, and expanded Harvards physical facilities. NeiI L. Rudenstine took office as Harvards 26th president in 1991.

Interviewee: Well, I think its important to remind viewers that we will spend well over 12 billion pounds on higher education this year and to also say that there will be more students at university next year than

25、ever before in our history. But what is important is that when they get to university, is that they have good facilities, good buildings, that they have good contact with their lecturers and, for students from poorer backgrounds that they receive a grant.

26、going to university are in receipt of some grants. So we have to plan. Host:But theres going to be less money next year. Thats the bottom line, isnt it? Interviewee: Er, we are asking universities to make a one percent cut in their teaching grant. Thats 51 million out of a total budget of over five

27、billion. Look, I think there are families across the country preparing for Christmas spending a bit less and theyre, you know, its a lot more than one percent that theyre, theyre feeling. So I think this is reasonable to ask universities if we are to ensure that we can continue to send more young pe

28、ople to university and we remain committed to that. Host:And briefly, what about these two-year degrees? This is a reduction in standards, isnt it? Interviewee:Well, we, we, we. Its important in this country that we remember that students arent just the classic 18- to 21-year-old undergraduates. We

29、want mature students. We want more parttime students and over the last few years weve been growing the number of foundation degree, two-year degrees that ensure that transition into high university and high level skills.
