But many colleges do not offer graduate studies. Another difference is that universities are generally bigger. 3

Another place of higher education, especially in technical areas, is an institute, like the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Yet even an institute of technology can offer a wide choice of programs and activities.

Modern universities developed from those of Europe in the Middle Ages. The word “university” came from the Latin universities, describing a group of people organized for a common purpose. 4 In England, colleges were formed to provide students with places to live. Usually each group was studying the same thing. So college came to mean an area of study.

The first American universities divided their studies into a number of areas and called each one a college. This is still true. 5 For example, Harvard College is the undergraduate part of Harvard University.

A. A college can also be a part of a university.

B. They offer more programs and do more research.

C. There are more universities than colleges in the USA.

D. Colleges and universities have many things in common.

Cambodia’s 88,000 final-year high school students【2】(take) their exams last month. Many are afraid the government’s “no-cheating” policy may hurt their chances of entering3 university.

Some students prayed for success. One unhappy student told a Phnom Penh newspaper she hoped people watching the testing would let the students cheat “in a small way”,4 her hopes did not come true. The “ no-cheating” policy was firmly enforced.

Some cheaters are caught. As usual, some students tried to cheat on the exams. Hang Chon Naron is the person responsible5the “no-cheating” policy. It is an important part of his effort to reform education. He thinks the pass rate will be higher this year, partly6students have studied more. “We got a report from the schools that they worked harder.”

The minister hopes that7(honest) in the exam-taking will begin correcting the biggest problems facing the education system: high school graduates who are not ready8 (fill) jobs. The system has long produced graduates who lack the skills 9employers need. Also, there is another program10(aim) at improving education for women.

【题目】概要写作

阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

When a consumer finds that something he or she bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to what the producer says for it, the first step is to present the warranty(保单),or any other records that might help, at the store of buying. In most cases, this action will produce results.

However, if it does not, there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction. A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain directly to the store manager. In general, the “higher up” the consumer takes his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer's favour, taking it as true that he or she has a just right.

Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of buying, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.

Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can show clearly what is wrong with what was bought in question. If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example, “The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear” is better than “This stereo(立体音响) does not work.”.

The store manager may advise the consumer to write to the producer, if so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and as firmly as possible. But if a polite complaint does not achieve the expected result, the consumer can go a step further. He or she can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a public organization responsible for protecting consumers' rights.
