SECTION B

Read the following passage carefully, then choose the best answer to each question.

Charles Eliot, taking over at Harvard in 1869 at the age of 35, pioneered a break with the traditional curriculum. The usual course of studies at American universities emphasized classical and humanistic courses, classical languages, mathematics, ethics, and rhetoric; and each institution prescribed a rigid programme of required courses. Under Eliot’s leadership, Harvard dropped most of its required courses in favour of an elective system and increased its course offerings to stress the physical and social sciences, the fine arts, and modern languages. Soon other institutes in all sections of the country were following Harvard’s lead. Eliot was also influential in bringing about important reforms in professional education. He renovated the Harvard medical and law schools, raising the requirements and lenthening the residence period, and again the Harvard model affected the other schools. Improved technical training in other professions accompanied the advances in medicine and law. Both state and private universities hastened to establish schools of architecture, engineering education, journalism and business.

Although Harvard was one of the first universities to found a graduate school, the recognized centre of graduate study, based on the German system with the highest award, was Johns Hopkins.

A/ given a wide selection of subjects to choose from.

B/ allowed to choose any subject at all to study.

C/ required to study physical and social sciences.

D/ unable to follow classical and humanistic courses.

A/ study for longer hours.

C/ reach a higher academic level.

D/ act in a professional way.
