Final examination for grade 12 Subject: English Shool year: 2009- 2010 (Time allowance: 60 minutes) Read the passage and choose the best answer for each question below. In Britain, the availability of higher education has increased greatly in the second half of the twentieth century. Nevertheless, finding a place in a university in Britain is not easy. University only takes the better students. Because of this, and also because of the relatively high degree of personal supervision of students, nearly all university students are not supposed to take a job during term time. Unless their parents are rich, students receive a state grant of money that can cover most of their living expenses. The Open University in Britain, which was started in 1969, allows people who do not have the opportunity to study for a degree. Its courses are taught through television, radio, and especially written course books. Students work with their tutors, who discuss their written work, either at the meeting or through correspondence. In the summer, they have to attend short residential courses of about a week. 1.
