Read the following passage, and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions
ACADEMICS AREN’T THE PROBLEM
Studies about how students use their time might shed light on whether they face increased academic and financial pressures compared with earlier eras
Trang 7Based on data about how students are spending time, academic or financial pressures don’t seem to be greater now than a generation ago The data show that full-time students in all types
of colleges study much less now than they did a generation ago - a full 10 hours a week less Students are also receiving significantly higher grades So it appears that academic pressures are,
in fact, considerably lower than they used to be
The time-use data don’t suggest that students feel greater financial pressures, either When the time savings and lower opportunity costs are factored in, college appears less expensive for most students than it was in the 1960s And though there are now full-time students working to pay while in college, they study less even when paid work choices are held constantly
In other words, full-time students do not appear to be studying less in order to work more They appear to be studying less and spending the extra time on leisure activities or fun It seems hard to imagine that students feeling increased financial pressures would respond by taking more leisure
Based on how students are spending their time, then, it doesn’t look as though academic or financial pressures are greater now than a generation ago The time- use data don't speak directly
to social pressures, and it may well be that these have become more intense lately
In one recent set of data, students reported spending more than 23 hours per week either socializing with friends or playing on the Computer for fun Social activities, in person or on
Computer, would seem to have become the major focus of campus life It is hard to tell what
kinds of pressures would be associated with this change
Question 43: Research studies have shown that pressures put on students nowadays are
A much greater than the past B not greater than the past
C getting ever greater D more diversified
Question 44: The study’s conclusion that students’ workload now is not greater than before is
based on
A how students spend their time B what students achieve with greater load
C how students work through college D what college demands from students
Question 45: Students get higher grades as
A students study much harder B academic workload appears less demanding
C academic workload appears more attractive D college’s facilities are much better
Question 46: All factors considered, college now seems
C much more expensive D less expensive
Question 47: The word “focus” in the last paragraph can be replaced with
Trang 8A headline B biggest importance C primary theme D central activity Question 48: According to the author, the fact that more full-time students are working for pay
A shows that students are financially pressured
B is not an indication of pressures
C does not change students’ campus life
D indicates that students are academically pressured
Question 49: Ạccording to the author, the fact that students have more time for leisure is a proof
that
A financial pressure on students is not a problem
B they cannot find extra jobs
C academic work disinterests them
D they are active with extra-curricular activities
