Брайан:

Я согласен(agree) со студентами, которые предпочитают жить за пределами кампуса. На мой взгляд, первый огромный плюс(advantage) — это то, что когда студент, живет в отдельном доме, можно выбрать соседей(housemates). Это очень важный фактор, потому что люди, с которыми вы живете, влияют как вашу социальную жизнь, так и на вашу учебу(studies). Живя в кампусе, студент, как правило, не имеет этого выбора. Все это звучит прекрасно в университетских листовках, но на самом деле жизнь с(living with) таким количеством людей из разных стран и культур часто вызывает стресс. Все, начиная от привычек питания до манеры общения и праздников может привести к непониманию, дракам(fights) и переживаниям(frustration).

Еще жизнь за пределами кампуса означает, что студенты устанавливают свои правила в своем доме. Они не должны следовать строгим правилам(rules), введенным в университете. Они могут прийти домой поздно ночью, организовать вечеринку(organise a party) в середине недели или пригласить(invite) гостей на выходные.

Наконец, жизнь за пределами кампуса со всеми вытекающими счетами(bills) на оплату и проблемами, которые нужно решать(solve), заставит людей повзрослеть быстрее. Человек становится более ответственным, активным(active) и независимым(independent).

Диана:

Есть, несомненно, определенные ограничения, которые должны быть приняты, если студент выбирает(chooses) жизнь на территории кампуса, но там безопаснее, проще(easier) и гораздо интереснее.

Да, ваши соседи по комнате могут быть проблемой, но научиться делить ограниченное пространство с другими подготовит(prepare) вас к общению с людьми в дальнейшей жизни.
В то же время вы получаете возможность взаимодействовать с другими студентами, у которых есть такие же интересы(similar interests) и обменяться полезной информацией и опытом с ними. К концу года, просто сидеть в холле вашего здания может быть приятным занятием(fun activity), потому что вы можете видеться и разговаривать с друзьями и соседями, которые проходят мимо.

Много дискотек(clubs) и культурных развлечений(cultural activities) проводятся в выходные, что полезно для студентов, чтобы жить в(on) кампусе полноценно.

Когда вы живете в(on) кампусе, вы понимаете, что вы находитесь в центре всего(everything), что вам нужно. Вы понимаете, что вы находитесь рядом с библиотеками, компьютерными классами, большими кабинетами для группового изучения или встреч, центра здоровья студента, студенческого книжного магазина, и учебных зданий. Не важно какая погода(the weather), вы находитесь в шаговой(walking) доступности.

Вы чувствуете(feel) себя защищенным. Если у вас есть проблемы, будет много людей готовых помочь(help). Вам не приходится иметь дело с контрактами и счетами. Вы можете сконцентрироваться(concentrate) на учебе, для чего и нужен университет.

Education is a long process that not

_________, but is also essential in shaping our future lives. From the moment
we enter (4) _________ as small children, and as we progress through (5)
_________ and (6) _________ education, we are laying the foundations for the
life ahead of us. We must (7) _________ ourselves to work hard so that we can
(8) _________ exams and gain the (9) _________ we will need to secure a good
job. We must also (10) _________ valuable life skills so that we can fit in
and work with those around us. And of course (11) _________ education helps
us to understand how we can stay fit and healthy.

For most people, this process ends when
they are in their mid-to-late teens. For others, however, it is the beginning
of a lifetime of learning. After they finish school, many progress to (12)
_________ education where they will learn more useful skills such as computer
literacy or basic business management. Others will (13) _________ on a
programme of (14) _________ education at a university where, with hard work,
they will have the opportunity (15) _________ after three or four years with
a  well-earned (16) _________. After that,
they may work for a while before opting to study for a (17) _________ degree-
an MA, for example, or a PhD. Alternatively, they may choose to attend an (18)
_________ after work or, if they have a sympathetic employer, obtain (19)
_________ so that they can study during the week. And if they live a long way
from a college or university, they might follow a (20) _________ course using
mail and the internet. In fact, it is largely due to the proliferation of
computers that many people, who have not been near a school for many years,
have started to study again and can proudly class themselves as (21)
_________ students.

We live in a fascinating and constantly
changing world, and we must continually learn and acquire new knowledge if we
are to adapt and keep up with changing events. Our schooldays are just the
beginning and this process, and we should make the best of every (22)
_________ to develop ourselves, whether we are eighteen or eighty. You are,
indeed, never too old to learn.

    READING (10 points)

    FIONA AND THE SEALS

    I It all started back in 1976, when a young woman named Fiona Middleton sat on a low rock by the sea,

    playing her violin. She suddenly heard noises, and to her surprise, a seal appeared floating quite close to

    her. As she continued playing, several seals joined the first, rolling around while they were listening to

    her music.

    II Ever since that first concert so many years ago, Fiona, a resident of the Hebridean Isle of Islay in

    Scotland, has continued to go to the sea and play for audiences of up to 40 seals at a time. She has learned

    their habits as well as what kinds of music they seem to enjoy, and she composes songs especially for

    them.

    III Fionas relationship with the animals grew even deeper in 1988, when the Scottish seal colonies became

    threatened by a deadly virus. In some areas of Scotland, home to the vast majority of Europes grey seals,

    more than 50 per cent of the Scottish seal population died. Fiona began caring for sick and injured seals

    and abandoned pups, taking them home and releasing them to the sea when they were well.

    IV At that time she also organised a campaign, raising funds and selling recordings of her music. With the

    help of organisations whose support she attracted, such as Save Our Seals and Greenpeace, a new vaccine

    for the virus was developed and sick seals were successfully treated with antibiotics.

    V Today, Fionas actions focus on another problem facing the seals in her area. Fishermen, claiming seals

    eat the fish and therefore harm the fishing industry, are legally allowed to shoot them. Fiona is

    campaigning to change this law so that seal shooting is limited and the seals are better protected.

    VI Fiona, her husband and her three daughters still share their home with various sick and injured seals as

    well as abandoned pups. She has published a book on her work with the seals and her music continues to

    be sold. Hopefully, these fascinating creatures will soon receive better government protection and be able

    to live in peace in their watery habitat.

    1- Are the following statements true (T) or false (F)? Find evidence in the text to support your answer. (2 points each = 6 points)

    …… 1. The first time that she played by the sea, Fiona was hoping that seals would come and listen. …………………………………………………………………..

    …………………………………………………………………..

    …… 2. In Scotland, seals are shot by fishermen for sport. …………………………………………………………………..

    …………………………………………………………………..

    …… 3. Fiona has not stopped selling recordings of her music. . . ..

  • 2-Choose the correct answer.(2 points)

    1. More than half the grey seals in Europe a. live in Scotland. b. died of the virus. c. are in the Hebridean Isles.

    2. Fiona started to campaign for seals a. because of the law allowing shooting. b. during the time of the virus. c. in order to get money to care for seals at home.

    3- Find words in the text that mean the same as: (0,5 each= 2 points)

    1. near (paragraph I) ……………………

    2. types (paragraph II) ……………………

    3. healthy (paragraph III) ……………………

    4. money (paragraph IV) ……………………
