Now most of these prehistoric desert people【 B1】 _ the countryside throughout the year. You might think that they re wanderi

Places where plants were ripening or fish were 【 B4】 _ . Now often when these people moved, they carried all their【 B5】 _ .on their hacks. But if the journey

Read the passage carefully. Then answer
42、 the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. 47 Each autumn, teachers spend many hours writing references in support of their pupils university applications, and university admissions tutors subsequently spend many hours reading them. Indeed, the official advice is that wh
43、en there are more qualified applicants than can be accommodated, or when applicants suitability for professions is being assessed, admissions staff should consider “additional information, including references“. The pressure to widen access has brought us to the point where references are hardly wor
44、th the paper they are written on. Of course, some applicants results may not do them justice and will not therefore be an accurate predictor of future achievement. However, the almost total absence of anything but positive comments makes it impossible to distinguish between such applicants and those
45、 for whom higher education may be a step too far. It is the same story with access courses, which provide ma opportunity for those who left school without qualifications to develop their confidence and study skills. Not all access students will be able to achieve a higher education qualification, bu
46、t I cannot recall one who was not predicated by his or her access tutor to pass with flying colors and be an ideal candidate for higher education. Taking up referees invitations to contact them for more information, in the hope that this may indicate that they are wishing to say something they are n
47、ot prepared to write, rarely proves fruitful. I am repeatedly told that they are “not free to talk“, or they express discomfort at being asked for specific information. “Im sure you see how difficult it is for me“, “I dont really know her that well“ and “I rather wish you hadnt asked me that“ are am
48、ong the most common responses. Even university tutors are overstating the truth. One stated that an applicant had “gained passed in four modules and then decided to leave the course“. Further inquiry revealed that he, and another who “came to the view that teaching was not for her“, both left becaus
49、e they had failed. I also suspect that the student who “has many skills and qualities that, unfortunately, are not easily demonstrable through our system of academic assessment“ was heading in a similar direction. If a pupil, has “faced the challenge of A-level work“, is he or she rising to it or not? This is like trying to communicate in an unfamiliar language. Since in most cases we cannot establish what is
