单选题Passage Two Questions 62 to 66 are.based in the following
passage. Normally a student must attend a certain
number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives
him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities
the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for one
semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks;
while attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses
during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years
attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work
for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move
between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not
in fact done as a regular practice. For every course that he
follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is
available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes a
constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some students still
find time for great activity in student affairs. Elections to positions in
student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective work of maintaining
discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities.
Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating
has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the
operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who
has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of
benefit to him later in his career.
