3、al systemScript:Hi, everybody. My topic today 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
4、students abilities and interest in other areas.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
5、 too academic, and, as a result,many kids have lost their interest in learning.Educators often fail to recognize various kinds of intelligence.They simply exert a lot of pressure on students to be as well-rounded as possible.I think being well-rounded isnt really possible.And as a consequence, some
6、students I believe to be intelligent 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 separated from the rest of the school.Some kids are kept in a separate
7、class if their grades are lower than 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 th
8、e kids in those classes are intelligent,but they never actually realize their potential because of the way they are treated early on in their education.Keys:(1)standardized tests(2)abilities and interest(3)interest(4)pressure(5)well-rounded(6)get into good colleges(7)the rest of the school(8)from ba

10、ed to go up to the University of Virginia and party with some friends there.They had a great time and didnt make it back to school until early Monday morning.Rather than taking the final then,they decided to find their professor after the final and explain to him why they missed it.They explained th
11、at they had 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 elate
12、d.The next 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 t

15、th a single master to the present enrollment of more than 21,000 students,including undergraduates and students in 10 graduate and professional schools.Over 14,000 people work at Harvard, including more than 2,100 faculty members.Harvard has produced eight American presidents and many Nobel Prize wi
16、nners.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 was never formally
17、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, broadened student aid, created
18、 new professorships,and expanded Harvards physical facilities.NeiI L. Rudenstine took office as Harvards 26th president in 1991.As part of an overall effort to achieve greater coordination among the universitys schools and faculties,Rudenstine encouraged academic planning and identified some of Harv
19、ards main intellectual priorities.He also stressed the importance of the universitys excellence in undergraduate education,the significance of keeping Harvards doors open to students from families of different economic backgrounds,and the task of adapting the research university to an era of both ra

21、trumpeted commitment to increasing higher education?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 ever before in our history.But wha
22、t 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.And you know 40 percent of students who are going to university are in receipt of
23、 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 billion.Look, I think there are families
24、 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 people to university and we remain committed
25、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 want mature students. We want more parttime st
