英國人選擇學校的標準是什么？牛津大學和劍橋大學受歡迎的原因是什么
來聽今天的講解:
A: Sean, why do people show surprise when they know that Vm a graduate of the Oxford University? They also stare at me adoringly, which makes me feel uncomfortable.
雪莉，為什么當人們知道我是牛津大學的畢業(yè)生的時候都特別吃驚？他們還用一種崇拜的眼神看著我，弄得我挺不好意思的。
B: Aha! It is normal! The Oxford University is the most prestigious university in Britain, even all around the world. Many British students are proud of being admitted by the University.
哈哈！這很正常呀！牛津大學是英國，乃至全世界最著名的大學了。很多英國學子都以被牛津大學錄取為榮。
A: Oh! I see. It’s the same case in China. Is the notability of the school also a standard of choosing a university in Britain?
哦！我懂了。在中國也是這樣。難道英國人選擇學校的標準也是學校的知名度嗎？
B: There is something to that, but it is not the full story.
部分正確，但這幷不是全部。
A: Well, what is the full story?
那全部的標準是什么呢？
B: First of all, let’s look at when the university was established. The well known universities nowadays almost have a very long history, because only excellent universities can Stand the test of time, and survive to this day.
首先，要看大學的成立車代。當今知名的大學幾乎都有著非常悠久的歷史，因為只有真正好的大學才能經得起時間的考驗。
A: Oh! The University of Oxford is the first university established in the UK, with a history of more than 800 years. It must be the first choice！
哦！牛津大學是英國建立的第一所大學，有著800多年的歷史。所以它一定是首選！
B: Correct! According to the time of establishment, the British universities may be divided into three groups .universities in the 19th century, universities in the 1960s， and universities in the early 1990s.

哇！在這段時間里居然興建了這么多所大學！

這還不算什么，從20世紀60年代到90年代，大學的數量增長得更快。在20世紀90年代初建立的大學共56所，包括諾桑比亞大學、普利茅斯大學、考文垂大學、伯恩茅斯大學等。
A: It’s incredible! Britain is really a nation attaching importance to education!

那是！不過，雖然英國有這么多的大學，其中很多都是世界知名的，但是牛津大學和劍橋大學仍然是英國人最喜愛的兩所大學。
A: Long history is not the only reason for Oxford and Cambridge to be the most popular universities, right?
牛津大學和劍橋大學之所以最受歡迎不只是因為它們歷史悠久吧？
B: Yeah! Other factors for the British people to choose a university includes academic factors such as teaching and research level, as well as nonacademic factors such as the university’s location, scale of school running, tuition fee, transportation, recreation, and so on.
是的！英國人選擇大學的其他因素還包括學術因素如教學科研水平，以及非學術因素如院校的地理位置、規(guī)模、學費、交通、娛樂等。
A: The University of Oxford is regarded as one of the world’s leading academic institutions.

B: All in all, considering all these factors, it’s easy for you to understand the reason why the British people are in deep love with the University.
總之，綜含考慮了這么多因素，你也就不難理解為什么英國人對牛津大學如此鐘情啦！
