One of the great things about Atlantic College students is that they come from manydifferent social backgrounds and countries As few can afford the fees of £20,000 over twoyears, grants are available
A quarter of students are British, and many of those can only attend because they receivegovernment help
“I really admire the college for trying to encourage international understanding amongyoung people", as Barbara Molenkamp, a student from the Netherlands, said ''You learn tolive with people and respect them, even the ones you don't like During the summer holidays
my mother couldn't believe how much less I argued with my sister."

C.Read the following passage carefully then choose the correct answer :
Because writing has become so important in our culture, we sometimes think of it as more real than speech A little thought, however, will show why speech is primary and writing secondary
to language Human beings have been writing for at least 5000 years, but they have been
talking for much longer When writing did develop, it was derived from and represented
speech, albeit imperfectly Even today there are spoken languages that have no written form.Furthermore, we all learn to talk well before we learn to write Any human child who is notseverely handicapped physically or mentally will learn to talk , a normal human being cannot
be prevented from doing so
On the other hand, it takes a special effort to learn to write; in the past many intelligent anduseful members of society did not acquire the skill, and even today many who speak languageswith writing systems never learn to read or write, while some who learn the rudiments of thoseskills do so only imperfectly
42.The word "writing " means
A words B books C experiences D novels
43 According to the passage, writing
A is imperfect, but less so than speech B represented speech, but not perfectly
C developed perfectly from speech D is represented perfectly by speech
44 In order to show that learning to write requires effort, the author gives the example of :
A people who learn the rudiments of speech B people who speak many languages
C intelligent people who couldn't write D handicapped children
45 The author argues that :
A writing has become too important B speech is more basic to language than writing
C everyone must learn to write D all languages should have a written form
