The usual course of studies at American universities emphasized classical and humanistic course, classical languages , mathematics. Ethics, and rhetoric; and each institution prescribed a rigid program of required courses. Under Eliot’s leadership, Harvard dropped most of its required courses of favor&nbsp; of an elective system and increased its course offerings to stress the physical and social sciences, fine arts , and modern languages. Soon other institutes in all sections of the country were following Harvard’s lead. Eliot was also influential in bringing about important reforms in professional education. He renovated the Harvard medical and law schools, raising the requirements and lengthening the residence period, and again the Harvard model affected the other schools. Improved technical training in other professions accompanied the advances in medicine and law. Both state and private universities hastened to establish schools of architecture, engineering, education, journalism, business.Although Harvard was one of the first universities to found a graduate school, the recognized centre for graduate study, based on the German system with the highest award, was John Hopkins.21.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; What did Charles Eliot do at Harvard?a.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; He started studies under a rigid programb.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; He introduced modern studiesc.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; He removed all classical studiesd.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; He selected students under an elective system22.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; According to the passage, after 1869 students at Harvard werea.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Given a wide selection of subjects to choose fromb.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Allowed to choose any subject at all to studyc.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Required to study physical and social scienced.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Unable to follow classical and humanistic courses23.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Under Charles Eliot’s influence at Harvard , students who wished to become doctors and lawyers had toa.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Study for longer hoursb.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Conform to a required Harvard modelc.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Reach a higher academic leveld.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Act in a professional way24.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; We understand from the passage that John Hopkins Universitya.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Offers the best graduate prizesb.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Provides an excellent German educationc.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Offers the most prestigious graduate educationd.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Has the oldest established graduate school25.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The overall effect of Charles Eliot’s reform was toa.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Standardize professional educationb.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Diminish the other universitiesc.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Lower the prestige of classical and humanistic studiesd.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Widen the academic curriculum&nbsp;[SPOILER]21.B&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 22.A&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 23.C&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 24.C&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 25.D[/SPOILER]&nbsp;PAPER 2: WRITING&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;SECTION A: Use of EnglishA.&nbsp; &nbsp; Fill each of the numbered blanks in the following passage.
