Universities

Nearly half of all Americans go on to college (a place of higher education) when they leave school. Some colleges are small, with only a few hundred students, but some of the big state universities are huge, with up to 60,000 students. There are more than 2,600 universities in the USA, and nearly all colleges have both men and women students.

You can study many interesting subjects at college, in short or long courses, but if you want to get a degree, you have to study for at least four years. Classes start in September and go on to early June with a break in the middle.

If you want to study in the States, write to your nearest American embassy.

In Britain, you can get a degree in a university, in a ‘polytechnic’, or in some of the many colleges of further education. There are 42 universities in Britain. There are also many colleges in Britain that teach English as a foreign language. Some have short courses (a few weeks or months), and some have one- or two-year courses.

University classes start in September and go on until mid-June with two breaks, one at Christmas, and one at Easter. Most degrees take three years, but some take four. If you want to study in Britain, write to your nearest British embassy or British Council office.

Notes for the text:

huge – громадный

degree – ученая степень

New York

Everyone knows something about New York – the Statue of Liberty, the skyscrapers, the beautiful shops on Fifth Avenue, and the many theatres on Broadway. This is America’s cultural capital, and her biggest city, with a population of nearly eight million. In the summer it is hot and in the winter it can be very cold, but there are hundreds of things to do and see all the year round.

There are five ‘boroughs’ in New York: Brooklyn, the Bronx, Manhattan, Queens and Richmond. Only one of them, the Bronx, is not on an island.

Manhattan, the smallest island in New York, is the real centre of the city. Most of the interesting shops, buildings and museums are here. In 1605 the first Europeans came to Manhattan from Holland. They bought the island from the American Indians for a few glass necklaces, worth about $26 today.

Only 1,500,000 people live in Manhattan, but five million people work here every day. Many live in the suburbs and come to work on the subway.

Wall Street in Manhattan is the financial heart of the USA and the most important banking centre in the world. It is a street of ‘skyscrapers’, those incredible, high buildings which Americans invented, and built faster and higher than anyone else.

Like every big city, New York has its own traffic system. Traffic jams can be terrible, and it’s usually quickest to go by subway. The New York subway is easy to use and quite cheap.

Notes for the text:

borough – район

subway – метро
