THE BOOK IN THE 21st CENTURY
How many times in the last hundred years or so have people talked of the imminent death of the book? Films were an early threat because they were so effective at telling stories in a visual way. Next there was radio, (26) stepped into the mid-twentieth century and provided such an alternative to books as drama, documentaries and discussions. When television arrived, many people believed that it would finish the book off. Nowadays, (27) the threat by TV, the book is thought to be endangered by computers and the Internet, and by other technological attractions (28) the CD and the video game, too.
Surely there are now reasons why (29) book ought to be dead, or at least very badly injured. If so, why does it not show proper respect for these reportedly less literate times (30) die out? There is clearly more than a single answer to this question. Firstly, we have more leisure time than we (31) to, and people are generally living longer, which means there is more time to do more (including reading books). As (32) as this, there is the strength of the book as a tradition. We are all too dismissive of traditions in our modern world, but they can have very strong pull (33) us.
Added to this, the book is such a practical tool: it doesn't cost too (34) , it is usually small enough to carry around, and it can easily be (35) . We will never go without books, because they have served us so well for so long.

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 fall, winter, spring, 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 varied lengths.
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 programs in the fall quarter, they may enter at the beginning of any other quarters. Finally, since the physical facilities are kept in operation year round, the resources are used effectively 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 enough for them to cover the material required by most college courses. Students also find it difficult to complete the assignments in such a short period of time.
In order to combine the advantages of the quarter system with those of the semester 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 options for admission during the year and accelerates the degree programs for those students who wish to graduate early.
Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
