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.

Although most universities in the United States are on a semester system, which offers classes in the fall and spring, some schools observe a quarter system comprised of spring, fall, winter, and summer quarters. The academic year, September to June, is divided into three quarters of eleven weeks each beginning in September, January, and March; the summer quarter, June to August, is composed of shorter sessions of varying length.

There are several advantages and disadvantages to the quarter system. On the plus side, students who wish to complete their degrees in less than the customary four years may take advantage of the opportunity to study year round by enrolling in all four quarters. In addition, although most students begin their program in the fall quarter, they may enter at the beginning of any of the other quarters. Finally, since the physical facilities are kept in operation year round, the resources are used efficiently to serve the greatest number of students. But there are several disadvantages as well. Many faculties complain that the eleven-week term is simply not long enough for them to cover the material required by most college courses. Students also find it difficult to complete the assignments in such a period of time.

       In order to combine the advantages of the quarter system, some colleges and universities have instituted a three-term trimester system. In fourteen weeks, faculty and students have more time to cover material and finish course requirements, but the additional term provides more options for admission during the year and accelerates the degree programs for those students who wish to graduate early.

C©u 46: Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. Universities in the United States                            B. The academic year

C. The Quarter system                                                D. The Semester system

C©u 47: How many terms are there in a quarter system?

A. Four regular terms and one summer term               B. Three regular terms and one summer term

C. Two regular terms and two summer terms              D. One regular term and four summer terms

C©u 48: When may students begin studying in the school that uses a quarter system?

A. September                                                             B. At the beginning of any quarter

C. Summer semester only                                           D. At the beginning of the academic year

C©u 49: The underlined word "instituted" in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to ………….

A. established                B. recommended                  C. considered                       D. attempted
