Ex. 2. Find information about other Belarussian Universities you are interested in and compare it with that of the BSU.
Ex. 3. Survey an e-mail sent by a first-year student who describes his first impressions at the University. Say if your impressions are the same or different. Hi, pal. I’m on campus, finally. My first day is over, and I’m soooooo excited! The university is really huge, there are thousands of students here. They say the place has an outstanding reputation. There are lots of various faculties for study and recreation, all within walking distance. One can say it’s a privilege just to be here, let alone to be a student. It’s not going to be easy for me to study and live up everyone’s expectations. But I will try to do my best. My goal is to make my time here as productive and useful as it can be. By the way, I intend to take up sports, too. Our faculty has an extensive athletic program. There is a swimming pool and two tennis courts. Boy, my athletic talents are not going to be lost either. So long, pal. I’m going to start getting ready for tomorrow.
Ex. 4. Role-play the situations. Work in pairs.
LISTENING AND WRITING Ex. 1. Do you know that students all over the world have an anthem of their own? It has become a popular academic hymn in many European countries. Modern students sing it at university festivities and graduation ceremonies. Why do you think it is written in Latin? Does it have any connection with medieval Universities? Listen to this song and say what it is about, on the shortness of life or on the joy of life? Gaudeamus
