UK education is all about giving you inspiration to develop your knowledge and skills, freedom to be creative, and support to help you achieve your best.
On a UK course you will benefit from excellent teaching and facilities. In order to accept students, UK education centres must meet strict quality standards set by the UK government and education bodies.
With such a good reputation for research and education, universities and colleges in the UK attract some of the world's leading academics and professionals. You will be encouraged to express your own ideas and think for yourself.
The attention to quality is reflected in the UK's excellent results：four of the top six universities in the world are in the UK.
The UK is a world-leading research nation. 54% of the research conducted by UK
universities and colleges is classed as either “world-leading” or “internationally excellent”．
At the most recent inspection, 97% of further education colleges were judged satisfactory or better, for their overall effectiveness.
In the recent BIS Tracking International Graduate Outcomes survey, more than 88% of international higher education graduates said they were satisfied with their UK learning experiences.
Likewise, in the Higher Education Academy Postgraduate Taught Experience survey of UK postgraduate students, 93% rated the quality of teaching positively.
For English language students, you'll find the UK has long been at the forefront of language
teaching, and pioneered many of the techniques now used around the world. The emphasis is on learning the language through fun and participation: instead of just listening to your teacher, your classes will involve games, problem-solving and discussions. You might also listen to songs,
watch television or read magazines to practise your comprehension skills.
The UK's boarding schools also offer excellent teaching, facilities and support. At UK independent schools (most boarding schools are independent), a teacher has just 9.4 pupils on average, so teachers have more time to give you individual support. This is reflected in the results: 91% of students from UK independent schools go on to higher education.
1．What do the education centres do to accept students? A. To develop knowledge and skills. B. To help achieve your best.
C. To meet strict quality standards. D. To benefit from excellent teaching.
2．How many foreign students are said to be satisfied with their learning experiences in the UK?
A. About 97%. B. Below 54%. C. 93% or so. D. Over 88%.
3．How do the students learn English in the UK? A. By listening to the teacher. B. By working in the class.

Harvard University in the United States has been ranked as the university with the best “reputation” in the world.
The Times Higher Education magazine has listed 200 top universities all over the world based on how they are regarded by a group of international college teachers. That is to say the list measures how universities are regarded, rather than how they actually perform.
“A subjective, word-of-mouth(口碑的)quality such as ‘reputation’ has genuine economic
value for universities，” said Simon Marginson, professor of higher education at the University of Melbourne in Australia.
“Reputation is not just an impression, though it might be not as reliable as performance by objective indicators(客观指标)，” said Professor Marginson.
Based on the views of 13,000 college teachers around the world, it confirms the power of the US universities, which dominates this list. Seven of the top 10 are US universities, headed by Harvard and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Furthermore, 14 of the top 20 are from the US. Cambridge is the highest ranking UK university on the list, in third place, with Oxford ranked as sixth.
“For students applying to universities, reputation may be hard to quantify, but it is an important part of the attractiveness，” said the president of Cambridge University's students' union, Rahul Mansigani.
“Reputation makes a huge difference. If there is an idea that somewhere is great, it will get lots of good people applying whether it's true or not. Factors such as a sense of history and the presence of outstanding college teachers are part of the reputation of Cambridge，” he said.
5．The underlined word “dominates” in Paragraph 5 probably means “________”． A． affects B． decides C． controls D． improves 6．What can be inferred from the text?
A. No Asian universities are among the top 10.
B. At least five UK universities are among the top 20.
C. The Times Higher Education magazine is from the US.
D. Reputation affects students' decisions when choosing universities. 7．Which of the following would be the best title of the passage? A. Turning ideas into reputation
B. World's best universities ranked in order of reputation C. The top 200 universities in the US
D. Reputable universities are attractive to more students Ⅲ.书面表达

【文章大意】 一所大学的“名望”尽管很难具体量化但却非常重要。《泰晤士高等教育》杂志公布了全世界最负盛名的前200名大学的名单，其中哈佛大学名列榜首。
5．C 词义猜测题。affect影响；decide决定；control控制；improve提高。上下文“Based on the views of 13,000 college teachers around the world, it confirms the power of the US universities, which dominates this list. Seven of the top 10 are US universities, headed by Harvard and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)．”中which引导非限制性定语从句，指代上文中的the power of the US universities(美国大学的影响力)。而其后一句所说的是具体内容“排名前十的大学中有七所是美国的大学，以哈佛大学和麻省理工学院为首”。 所以定语从句的句意应是“美国大学的影响力在排名中‘占压倒性的优势’。”故正确答案为C。
6．D 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段中的the president of Cambridge University's students' union, Rahul Mansigani所说的话“For students applying to universities, reputation…is an important part of the attractiveness…”可知，大学的名望是其吸引学生的一个重要方面，即大学的名望会影响孩子在选择大学时的决定。故正确答案为D。
7．B 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述的是《泰晤士高等教育》杂志公布了全世界最负盛名的前200名大学的名单，其中哈佛大学名列榜首。故该题正确答案为B。
