问题     Classes at American College
    The year at an American college is divided into 2 semesters or 3 quarters. Semesters are 15 weeks; quarters are 10 weeks. American college students usually attend school from September to May. Occasionally their academic pursuits extend into the summer.
    Students choose their classes a few weeks prior to the start of each term. Universities offer a great many classes in the students’ main area of study and in other areas as well. Students must take both. These include science, mathematics, computer, history and English. Other classes may be just for fun, like dance, theater or sports. Tests usually are given in the middle of the term and at the end. The final examinations are extremely important. In some classes, the professor asks the students to write a research paper or complete a certain task instead of taking a test.
    Classes usually are organized through lectures. For example, a student may attend 2 or 3 lectures a week by the professor. As many as several hundred students sit at each lecture. Sometimes they also attend a smaller class to ask questions and discuss what the professor says. These small classes are taught by professor’s assistants. In science classes, students also have a long laboratory class each week.
    What do American students study at college? The US Department of Education says the most popular area of study is sciences and management. Next is social science, which encompasses history, sociology, literature, public relations and political science. English is another popular field of study. Then comes computer science and health and life sciences like biology, chemistry and physics. Education is popular, too. Foreign languages are not popular as a main area of study among American college students. However, students at many colleges must study a language other than English before they can graduate. The most popular foreign language is Spanish, followed by French and German.
选项
答案 美国大学的课程 在美国大学里，一学年常分为2个学期或3个学季。每学期为15周，而每学季为10周。美国大学生上课时间通常从9月份到第二年的5月份。有时在夏季他们也继续在校学习。 每学期开始前，学生提前几周选课。大学为学生的主修科目和辅修科目开设许多课程。大学生二者都必须选修。这些课程包括自然科学、数学、计算机、历史和英语。其他一些课程，如舞蹈、戏剧或体育，仅为了娱乐。期中和期末一般要举行考试。期末考试尤为重要。有些课程不考试，教授让学生写论文或完成某项任务即可。 上课一般以讲课形式进行。例如，学生可以一周听教授讲课2或3次。每次讲课可多达几百人。有时他们也上小课，提问题并讨论教授所讲内容。小课由助教来上。理科班学生每周还有一次很长的实验课。 美国学生在大学里学些什么呢?美国教育部说，最热门的专业是理科和管理。其次是社会科学，包括历史、社会学、文学、公共关系和政治学。英语也很吃香。接着是计算机科学、保健和生命科学，如生物学、化学和物理。教育专业也受青睐。美国大学生读外语专业的人不多。然而许多大学的学生必须学一门英语以外的语言才能毕业。最热门的外语是西班牙语，其次是法语和德语。
