Task 13. Read the article about examinations at Cambridge and put the parts of the article in the right order.Cambridge 'Tripos' exams · This system means that it is theoretically possible (however unlikely) for students to do almost no work for two and a half years, cram like mad for the finals, and come out with a first class degree. · Eventually, the examinations themselves, firstly in mathematics and later in all other subjects, were called Tripos. · Students at Cambridge sit the so called 'Tripos' exams. · But this system has an important advantage: students do not have to do their Part I and Part II in the same subject. This is a great bonus if you find you are doing the wrong course. · Each Tripos consists of two parts. A student must pass both parts to get a degree. · The name comes from a three-legged stool that was once used at graduation ceremonies. A senior graduate of the University sat on the stool and read poetry to entertain other graduates. The names of the graduates (the 'Tripos list') were printed on the back of the poems. · Unlike many other universities, where the final grade of the degree is based on scores throughout the three years, a Cambridge grade is based purely on the score in the Part II.
