问题 Why is it difficult to located Cambridge University?
  
"Where is the university?" is the question many visitors to Cambridge ask. But no one could point at any one direction because there is no campus. The university consists of 31 self-governing colleges.  It has lecture halls, libraries, laboratories, museums and offices throughout the city.  Individual colleges choose their own students who have to meet their minimum entrance requirements set by the university.  And the graduates usually live and study in their colleges but they are taught in very full groups. Lectures and laboratories and practical work are organized by the university and held in university buildings. There are over ten thousand undergraduates and three thousand five hundred post-graduates. About 40% of them are women and some 8% from overseas. As well as teaching, research is of major importance.  Since the beginning of the twentieth century, more than sixty university members have won Nobel Prizes. The university has a huge number of buildings for teaching and research. It has more than 60 specialist subject libraries as well as the university library, which as the copy-right libraries, is entitled to a copy of every book published in Britain.  Examinations are held and degrees are awarded by the university. It allowed women to take the university exams in the 1881, but it was the not until 1941 that they were awarded degrees.

选项 A、Very few of them are engaged in research.
B、They were not awarded degrees until 1948.
C、They have outnumbered male students.
D、They were not treated equally until 1881.

答案D

解析 题干问:“从这篇文章可了解到剑桥大学里女学生的什么情况?”材料最后说“It allowed women to take the university exams in the 1881,but it was the not until 1941 that they were awarded degrees.”从这句话可知,女性在1881年允许参加入学考试,直到1941年才可以授予学位,可知直到1881年女学生才受到公平的对待,所以本题的答案选D。
