A. A Few Words About Education in Russia

Young people in our country have every opportunity to study and to get a higher education. At present one can see a lot of changes in Russia’s traditional system of education. There ap peared a great number of private educational institutions (uni versities, institutes, colleges, schools) where you have to pay for your education.

Young people have a wide choice of state controlled and pri vate education.

The state education in Russia is free of charge. Students can find all the books necessary for their studies in the libraries and reading rooms of their institutes. They can also make experi ments, carry out research work and different kinds of practical work in the laboratories and workshops of their institutes.

To enter an Institute you have to take entrance examinations which are rather difficult. Students are able to study in evening and day time departments. A student who does not work and

attends a day time department is called a full time student. A student who combines work and studies and attends an evening department is called a part time student.

The training of specialists at our institutes combines theo retical studies with practical work and industrial training. At the end of each term students are to submit their course (term) papers or designs.

If the students are doing well, they get scholarships. To pass the examinations successfully students have to work hard dur ing the academic year. They may fail in the examinations if they miss classes, and do not study regularly. Students must take ex aminations and credit tests in time. Sometimes they are allowed to take them in advance.

B. Winter Examinations and Holidays Are Coming

I study at the Moscow Institute of Industrial Arts. Our Insti tute trains artists and designers for various branches of indus try and culture.

I am in my first year now. In 5 years when I graduate from the Institute I shall be able to work as a designer (as an engineer) at a factory, or in an office.

There are four faculties at our Institute. I study at the faculty of interior and furniture design.

We study a lot of subjects such as the history of our country, history of art, technology and strength of materials, drawing, designing, chemistry and many other subjects, among which there is also a foreign language and physical training.

The first term is coming to an end. Classes will be over in a few days. The examinations will begin on the 2nd of January.

During the autumn term I worked hard. I attended all the lectures and never missed seminars. I had to spend a lot of time in the workshops working at my drawings and designs. Now I am quite ready for the examinations and I hope to pass them successfully. Last week I was allowed to take one of my exami nations in advance. Now I have two more examinations. If I am allowed, I shall take them in advance too because during the hol idays I am going to visit my parents and I want to have more time to stay with them. They live a long way from Moscow and it will take me several days to get to my native town in the Far East.

When the examinations are over we shall have our winter holidays. They will last from the 23rd of January till the 7th of February. We are already making plans for the coming holidays. There are many ways in which we can spend them. Some of us will go to country holiday homes, others will stay in town. During the holidays we shall go to the cinemas and theatres. We shall go in for sports. We shall spend a lot of time in the open air. Those students who do not live at home will be able to go to see their parents. They will soon leave for their native towns and villages.

C.Dialogue

A.Hello, Tom. Will you come to our party tonight?

T.Thank you, Alec, I’m afraid not. I shan’t be able to come because I have to prepare for my exams.

A.Yesterday I saw you in the reading room during the break. You were working hard.

T.Yes, I was, but still I have got a lot of material to learn, that’s why I’ll be reading the whole evening today.

A.Oh, I see. You are such a hard working student. When will the exams end?

T. We’ll have our last exam on the 23rd of January.

A.Will you be able to join us for a skiing trip on Saturday morn ing at 11 o’clock?

T.I think not. I’ll be taking my exam in the technology of mate rials at that time.

A. How are you going to spend the holidays?

T. If I pass the exams successfully, on the 25th I’ll leave for a holiday home.

A. Is it far from Moscow?

T. No, it’s quite near. But the place is beautiful. A. That’s a fine idea.

T. Yes, I hope to have a good time and to rest there.
