Passage Three
Many teachers believe that the responsibility for learning lies with the students. If a long reading assignment is given, instructors expect students to be familiar with the information in the reading even if they do not discuss it in class or on a given examination. Courses are not designed merely for the students to pass exams. The ideal student is considered to be one who is motivated to learn for the sake of learning, not the one interested only in getting high grades. Grade conscious students may be frustrated with teachers who do not believe it is necessary to grade every assignment. Sometimes homework is returned with brief written comments but without a grade.
When research is assigned, the professor expects the students to take the initiative and to complete the assignment with minimal guidance. Professors expect students, particularly graduate students, to be able to exhaust the reference sources in the library.
Professors will help students who need it, but prefer that their students do not be overly dependent on them. The time that a professor can spend with a student outside of class is limited. If a student had problems with classroom work, the student should either approach a professor during office hours or make an appointment.
Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
32. For what purpose does an ideal student learn?
【解析】選[C]。原文中提到The ideal student is considered to be one who is motivated to learn for the sake of learning，選項(xiàng)[C]正是此句的同義轉(zhuǎn)述，for the sake of與選項(xiàng)中的for the good of同義，意為“為了”，learning與gaining knowledge同義。
33. What does a professor expect students to do with their research assignments?
【解析】選[B]。原文中有這么一句：When research is assigned, the professor expects the students to take the initiative and to complete the assignment with minimal guidance，即教授希望學(xué)生能發(fā)揮主動(dòng)性，完成作業(yè)時(shí)盡量少尋求指導(dǎo)，選項(xiàng)[B] 與此同義，through their own efforts(通過個(gè)人的努力)是take the initiative(發(fā)揮主動(dòng)性)的同義轉(zhuǎn)述。
34. What’s the best way for a student to approach a professor about his problems with classroom work?
【解析】選[D]。原文最后一句話說，學(xué)生遇到問題時(shí)，有兩種選擇，選項(xiàng)[D] make an appointment是其中的一項(xiàng)，是答案。
35. Why are the grade conscious students frustrated?
【解析】選[A]。尋找原文中與frustrated有關(guān)的信息...teachers who do not believe it is necessary to grade every assignment，可知答案為[A]。
