it"s difficult to strike a balance between maintaining the educational quality and making sure as many people as possible receive university education.
In the past years, China has been confronted with the same problem.
The university enrollment has been on the increase and some institutions of higher learning do not have enough teachers and teaching facilities,

VI. Further Listening and Speaking
Listening Task:
Task1: Problems with our educational system
Script:
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 students" abilities and interest in other areas.
I think there are a lot of people who are very intelligent, but haven"t 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 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 isn"t really possible. And as a consequence, some students I believe to be intelligent can"t get into good colleges if they,
you know, haven"t 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 class if their grades are lower than others".
And they"re very aware of their social position, you know. I think it causes them to act in a way that is not really positive.
3/55页
They"re just acting in a way they are expected. Often their grades go from bad to worse. And that"s pretty sad. I think that many of the 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 bad to worse
Task 2: The final exam
Script
At a university, there were four sophomores taking a chemistry course.
They were doing so well on all the quizzes, midterms, labs, etc. that each had an "A" so far for the semester.
These four friends were so confident that on the weekend before the final,
they decided to go up to the University of Virginia and party with some friends there.
They had a great time and didn"t 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 that they had planned to come back in time for the final exam, but,
unfortunately, they had a flat tire on the way back and didn"t have a spare.
As a result, they missed the final.
4/55页
The professor thought it over and then agreed they could make up the final the following day.
The guys were relieved and elated.
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 to be easy."
Each finished the problem and then turned the page. On the second page was a question worth 95 points: "Which of the tires was flat?"
Keys:
(1)course
(2)quizzes
(3)semester
(4)confident
(5)party
(6)make
(7)missed
(8)they had a flat tire on the way back and didn"t have a spare (9)placed them in separate rooms, handed each of them a paper (10)On the second page was a question worth
Task3: Harvard University
Script
Harvard University is the oldest institute of higher learning in the United States.
Founded 16 years after the arrival of the Pilgrims at Plymouth, the university has grown from nine students with 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.
