While many argue that automation will lead to job losses, others believe it will create new opportunities. In this article, we explore both perspectives and discuss the potential impact on the workforce.In the short term, automation is likely to displace workers in certain industries. For example, the manufacturing sector has already seen a significant reduction in jobs due to the introduction of robots and automated machinery. Similarly, the service industry, particularly in areas such as retail and food service, may experience a decrease in employment as self-service kiosks and automated systems become more common.However, proponents of automation argue that it will also create new job opportunities. As technology advances, new industries and professions will emerge. For instance, the demand for professionals skilled in programming, robotics, and artificial intelligence is expected to grow. These new roles will require a different set of skills, which may necessitate a shift in education and training programs.Moreover, automation can lead to increased productivity and efficiency, potentially boosting overall economic growth. With more tasks automated, employees can focus on higher-value work, which may lead to job satisfaction and improved job performance.Despite these positive aspects, the transition to automation may not be smooth for all workers. The initial displacement of jobs could lead to social and economic challenges. For example, workers who lose their jobs due to automation may struggle to find new employment, particularly if they lack the necessary skills to adapt to the changing job market.Questions:1、What is the main concern expressed about automation in the workplace?A) It will lead to increased productivity.B) It will create new job opportunities.C) It will cause job losses in certain industries.D) It will boost economic growth.2、According to the passage, which of the following is a potentialconsequence of automation in the manufacturing sector?A) An increase in manufacturing jobs.B) A decrease in manufacturing jobs.C) No significant change in manufacturing jobs.D) A shift in the types of jobs available in manufacturing.3、What is one of the positive impacts of automation mentioned in the passage?A) It will reduce the need for education and training.B) It will lead to job satisfaction and improved job performance.C) It will decrease the overall economic growth.D) It will eliminate the need for higher-value work.Answers:1、C2、B3、BSecond Part: Listening Comprehension - Listening PassageDirections: In this part, you will hear a passage about campus life.

Nowadays, it is also heard around another activity — video games.Ten-year-old Owaish admits it takes him three to four hours a day to play games on his tablet computer. In addition, he plays for about two hours on the smart phone every day. As a result, he started suffering a serious pain in the neck around June or July. What’s worse the pain has spread to the hand and back gradually, which makes his mother Mehzabin become concerned.The doctors note the number of young children with the chronic pain(慢性病) in their necks, arms and shoulders is on the increase sharp in recent years . They are not aging, they haven’t had an accident, the blood reports are fine, their X-rays are fine, and their MRIs are fine. Facts have proved that the pain is from the poor posture(姿势) while they are playing video games on smart phones or other electronic devices. 19-year –old student Nida feels pain in the finger which holds the weight of her smart phone most of the day. Nida almost uses her smart phone 24/7, which means 24 hours a day, seven days a week, or all the time.Health experts predict there will be not only physical(身体的)but mental(精神的) problems resulting from the overuse of electronic devices. They encourage people to often take breaks and exercise from using computers, smart phones or other devices. Stand up! Stretch(伸展) the legs, back, shoulders and arms in all the possible directions. That’s the most effective way and maybe the key to solving the problem completely.

In the first study of its kind, a team of international researchers looked into the damage caused by one of the pollutants that have the severest impact on health — PM2.5.They found that Vitamin B supplement could effectively reduce the impact of the tiny particles (颗粒) on the human body, although they stressed that the research was in its early stages. According to the WHO, 92% of the world's people are living in places where the PM2.5 level goes beyond the recommended level. So it’s urgent to find a solution to the problem.According to this study, published in the PNAS, 10 volunteers were initially exposed to clean air and given a placebo (安慰剂) to check their baseline responses. The group then kept ontaking placebos tor tour weeks before being exposed to heavily polluted air from downtown Toronto, where an estimated 1,000 cars passed every hour. The bad air was delivered to the volunteers through an "oxygen type" face mask. The experiment was then repeated, with each volunteer taking a Vitamin B supplement daily, made up of 2.5mg of folic acid, 50mg of Vitamin B6, and l mg of Vitamin B12.Vitamin B6 can be found in liver, chicken, nuts and other things, and Vitamin B12 in fish, meat, eggs, milk and some cereals. The researchers found that four weeks of Vitamin B supplements — the damage of PM2.5 effects by 28-76%. The results emphasized how prevention at an individual level could be used to fight against the damage of PM2.5, the researchers said. 8.What's the newly discovered effect of Vitamin B in Paragraph 1?A.It can be used to replace other vitamins in our daily life.B.It can help lower the air pollution level in the open air.C.It can reduce the impact of PM2.5 on human bodies.D.It can get rid of the pollutants remaining in our body.9.What can be learned from the second paragraph?A.Further study about the effect of Vitamin B needs to be done.B.Vitamin B is the most important to human's health.C.The tiny particles in the air are made up of PM2.5.D.92% of the world's people are affected by PM2.5.10.How did researchers draw the new conclusion about Vitamin B?A.By referring to a journal.B.By performing experiments.C.By interviewing scientists.D.By comparing vitamins.11.You may read the passage on a website about .A.environment B.medicineC.education D.healthEverybody hates rats. But in the earthquake capitals of the world—Japan, Los Angeles, Turkey—rats will soon be man’s new best friends.What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can tget into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat.How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat’s brain gives a signal (信号). This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat’s brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person.Although there are already robots which can do this job. rats are better. Christian Linter at Cornell University—New York says. “Robots’ noses don’t work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that. ” Rats can also see in the dark. They are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs and unlike robots, they don’t need electricity!The “rat project” is not finished, but Julie Ryan of International Rescue Corps in Scotland says. “It would be wonderful. A rat could get into spaces we couldn’t get to and a rat would get out if it wasn’t safe.” Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake, of course).12.In the world earthquake capitals, rats will become man s best friends because they can________.A.take the place of man’s rescue jobsB.find the position of people alive who are trapped in buildingsC.serve as food for people alive who are trapped in buildingsD.get into small spaces13.The rescuers can judge a person is alive by ________.A.the noise made by the ratB.the rat’s unusual behaviorC.the signal sent by the radio on the rat’s backD.the smell given off by the person14.In doing rescue jobs, ________.A.rats smell better than dogsB.dogs don’t need to be trained to smell peopleC.rats can see in the dark and smaller than all the robotsD.robots’ sense of smell can be affected by other smells around15.Rats have all the following advantages EXCEPT that ________ .A.they are more wonderful than other animalsB.they are less expensive to train than dogsC.they don’t need electricityD.they are small and can get into small placesMany kids and teenagers have cell phones in their hands. However, is it really necessary for them to have phones at school? Here are the pros and cons.ProsThey can get in touch when necessary. The main benefit of having a phone is that your children can get in touch with you whenever they need to. 16 They can call the emergency services if necessary. If your children are in immediate danger, they can use their phones to call not only you but the emergency services. This is of great benefit and could potentially save your children’s lives.17 As long as your children remember to do this, their phones won’t cause distraction in class. Giving them a standard instead of a smartphone will also reduce the risk of distraction.ConsThe latest smartphones can almost double as a computer. It means they offer far more of a distraction to kids than they used to. 18 All these characteristics could disturb your children’s concentration if they play with them in class.Cell phones could interrupt lessons. Many children, even though they are asked to do so, forget to turn off their phones during lessons and their phones may make sounds. 19 Besides the distraction problem, cell phones can also be used to look up answers on the Internet.20 The possibility of children having access to these during exams could be attractive for them.A.Cell phones can be turned off or put on mute.B.Children use ordinary phones instead of smartphones.C.This allows you to feel they are safe.D.Without cell phones, campus life would be less colourful.E.They have some other functions — a calculator and the ability to save notes.F.This not only annoys other pupils, but also prevents them from learning well. G.Nowadays, children can not only text and make calls with their phones, but also play games, surf the Internet and listen to music.二、完形填空James shook his money box again.

关于fidic合同条件中文版翻译问题的探讨
关于FIDIC合同条件中文版翻译问题的探讨国际咨询工程师联合会(FIDIC,中译“菲迪克”)出版的1999年第一版FIDIC合同条件一共有四本,分别是《FIDIC施工合同条件》(新红皮书)、《FIDIC生产设备和设计-施工合同条件》(新黄皮书)、《FIDIC设计采购施工(EPC)/交钥匙工程合同条件》(银皮书)和《FIDIC 简明合同格式》(绿皮书)。
它们已经被翻译成中文版,这对于中国人学习和研究FIDIC合同条件有很大帮助。
但是笔者发现有的译文存在一些问题,有的是小问题,而有的却是典型的误译。
现列举几条,供大家参考。
以下均《FIDIC施工合同条件》为例。
1. 第1.1.5.6款Section工程:工程项目的总称,如一输电工程项目。
分项工程:工程项目下第一层分解,可单独进行接收或验收,如输电工程项目,包括,输电塔基础,输电塔、光纤、电线等。
分部工程:分项工程下的第二层分解,不可以单独地进行接收或验收,如塔基础的各个部分。
因此,Section应为Works(工程)下第一层分解内容,翻译为“分项工程”,更为适当。
2. 第1.1.6.5款Laws原文是:“Laws”means all national (or state) legislation, statutes, ordinances and other laws, and regulations and by-laws of any legally constituted public authority.译文是:“法律”系指所有国家(或州)的法律、条例、法令和其他法律,以及任何合法建立的公共当局制定的规则和细则等”。
1)“state”一词在美国是指“州”,在中国是指“省、自治区或直辖市”,而在行政区划里,中文的“州”是指省市之下与县同级的行政地区,英文翻译为“prefecture”2)根据《中华人民共和国立法法》:(1)全国人民代表大会制定法律;(2)国务院制定行政法规,由总理签署国务院令发布;(3)省、自治区、直辖市的人民代表大会及其常务委员会制定地方性法规;(4)民族自治地方的人民代表大会制定自治条例和单行条例;(5)国务院各部、委员会、中国人民银行、审计署和具有行政管理职能的直属机构,在本部门的权限范围内,制定规章。

中文版Comparative Constitutional and Administrative law
I. INTRODUCIONGlobalization and its counterpart "localization' are well-known challenges in today's world. The development of globalization will cause the integration of national legal systems through the enactment of formal international laws, such as bilateral treaties and multilateral organizations, and through the factual internationalization of markets, science, environmental protection, traffic, migration, and communica- tion. The question is whether the traditional legal systems are prepared for such developments or whether they will impede them or simply implode, as the communist system did.全球化和其对应的“本土化”是当今世界知名的挑战。
全球化的发展将通过国际正式制定法律使国家法律系统的集成,如双边条约和多边组织,并通过市场,科技,环保,交通,迁移实际的国际化,和通信方法。
问题是,传统的法律系统是准备这样的发展,或者他们是否会阻碍它们或完全崩溃,作为共产主义制度做了。
TULANE LA W REVIEWThe obvious challenge for comparative lawyers is to discover the basic legal problems of the integration of these legal systems, to analyze the possibilities of this integration, and to determine when partnership and cooperation are indispensable in order to foster diversity. This Article analyzes the primary historical roots of the differ- ences between common law and the continental legal systems with regard to constitutional and administrative law. Although both common law and the continental legal systems are committed to the constitutionalism of the modernity, their diversities are fundamental. To see such diversities as the enrichment of our global society should enlighten us; therefore, those diversities should not be destroyed by unreflected integration but should be fostered as an indication of respect for human nature and culture.比较律师明显的挑战是发现这些法律制度的一体化的基本法律问题,分析这种一体化的可能性,并确定在伙伴和合作是必不可少的以培育多样性。

Computer Science Teaching Handbookit is the duty of all holders of University offices specified in Schedule J to devote themselves to the advancement of knowledge in their subject,to give instruction therein to students,to undertake...examining of students...Statutes and Ordinances,Statute DVersion8,September22,2000Computer LaboratoryUniversity of CambridgeCopyright c 2000University of CambridgePrefaceThe purpose of this handbook is to provide an overview of the Computer Laboratory’s teaching,in all its aspects.It aims not to be comprehensive but to provide links to the many other Laboratory documents:for example,on the Examination structure or the procedures for Part II supervisions.The handbook is intended for all staff whose work relates to teaching.Compared with many other subjects,Computer Science is not straight-forward to teach.There are huge differences among our incoming students in their programming skills.Moreover,the body of knowledge is constantly puter power has increased thousand-fold over the past25 years,and countless new techniques and application areas have developed in that time.Much of what was known25years ago remains relevant today and will continue to be valuable for understanding techniques yet to be in-vented.Much else has become obsolete(such as algorithms for sorting on magnetic tape),and many other things have arrived with great fanfare and then faded away.To cope with the pace of change,we review our teach-ing annually,identifying which new topics must be added to the curriculum and which old ones must go to make way for them.Somehow we have to determine whether a new idea will prove be of lasting value or is just a fad.Our Mission Statement summarizes the points made above:We shall provide an education in Computer Science that will re-tain its value throughout a graduate’s career,in the presence oftechnological change.To this end we emphasize the principleswhich underlie the construction and the analysis of computingsystems.We strike a balance between theory and applications,and we include in the curriculum appropriate elements of recentresearch.We expect our graduates to play leading roles in indus-try,the professions and government.Course StructureThe course structure is described in detail elsewhere[10].Syllabuses for the Computer Science Tripos and Diploma are available on the Internet[6,7]. Here is a brief overview of these courses:11.Part I A and Mathematics with Computer Science.In thefirst year,the Computer Science Tripos provides two alternative courses of study commonly known as the50%option and the25%option.For the 50%option,students take courses on Foundations of Computer Sci-ence,Discrete Mathematics,Java,etc.Students also take the Mathe-matics course from the Natural Sciences Tripos,and one other Natural Science subject.The25%option is similar,but students take only half of the Com-puter Science courses and instead take a further Natural Science sub-ject.Mathematics with Computer Science includes the same Computer Science courses,with the rest of the material taken from the Mathe-matics Tripos.The50%option is the recommended route into Part I B Computer Sci-ence,whereas the otherfirst-year options allow students to learn some Computer Science while pursuing a different course of study.2.Part I B.The second year course gives students broad coverage of thesubject and a foundation for the more specializedfinal-year options.Students are expected to acquire a reasonable grounding in all the ma-jor areas of Computer Science,both hardware and software.The prac-tical work includes a group project,which gives students the experience of working collaboratively.3.Part II.The third year covers advanced topics,which often build uponlecture courses given in Part I B.The examination structure gives stu-dents the freedom to specialize.The practical work consists of an ex-tended project,agreed between the student and the Department.The student submits a dissertation describing the project.An alternative course is Part II(General).This is a one year course for students who have not taken Part I B.It gives a broad coverage of core Computer Science subjects.4.Diploma in Computer Science.This is a one year course for studentswho have a degree in some subject other than Computer Science.Its course content resembles that of Part II(General),but it differs by hav-ing a project and dissertation as its practical element.Although for-mally the Diploma is a graduate course,it is supervised as if it were an undergraduate course.AdmissionsUndergraduate admissions is one topic on which we can say little,for it is almost entirely a matter for Colleges.The Department’s requirements appear2in the Undergraduate Prospectus[16],which the University publishes annu-ally.The current edition stipulates single subject Mathematics as the only mandatory A-level.Also desirable will be a physical science(Physics,Chem-istry or Geology)at A level and Further Mathematics at AS level if not taken at A level.Candidates for admission will be encouraged to take the exten-sion paper in Mathematics.We do not ask for Computer Science at A-level or even demand prior experience with computing.3Contents1Teaching Procedures61.1Lectures and supervisions (6)1.2Practical work (8)1.3Feedback and monitoring

(34)5Chapter1Teaching ProceduresThe teaching process consists of many levels.In this chapter,we describe it starting at the coalface and working upwards.At the lowest(most impor-tant)level is the core process,the teaching and learning itself;this occurs via lectures and associated supervisions,and by practical work.Above that is the feedback and monitoring of this process.Higher again is the assessment process.At the uppermost is the design and modification of syllabus.The following sections correspond to this outline.Of course,one can go higher still and speak of educational strategy and the introduction of new programmes of study.The Department’s Steering Group for Teaching(§3.2)exists partly for this strategic purpose,but follows no defined procedure in its strategic deliberations.It will be influenced from many sources:the evolution of Computer Science as an academic discipline; the academic strengths of the Department;student demand and the avail-ability of funding;and the influence of external organizations and reviews (Chapter6),some of which reflect the concerns of industry and commerce.1.1Lectures and supervisionsIn the core process of learning and teaching,other than in practical work,1 three groups interact:students,lecturers and supervisors.The lecturers work on behalf of the Department and are assigned courses by its Head on the advice of the Teaching Committee;the supervisors work on behalf of the Colleges and are enlisted by each College’s Director of Studies for Computer Science.The Department makes three important inputs to the process:1.At the start of the academic year the Department distributes a‘Direc-tors of Studies pack,’containing full information about examinations, set practical work,and the year’s teaching programme.1Practical work is treated below(§1.2).62.Before each lecture course,the lecturer typically prepares lecture notesfor the students,presenting the material in detail either directly or via textbooks to which they refer.Many lecturers will place the notes or other course material on the Laboratory’s teaching material Web pages[8].3.The lecturer also prepares a Supervision Guide for supervisors.It maybe on the Web page,or in paper form in the Student Administration Office(§2.2).It contains any material useful for supervisors which is not made available to students;for example,an indication of how the material is divided among the available lecture hours,solution notes for exercises and past Examination questions,and a list of Frequently Asked Questions.Which of these are provided will vary from course to course.On the basis of this information the Director of Studies in each College enlists supervisors,each of whom will supervise students in small groups(usually of size two)for one or more courses.It is up to each Director of Studies to decide how many hours of supervision to provide for each course.It is not unusual to have one hour of supervision per four orfive lectures.During each course there is strong interaction among students,lecturers and supervisors.The following diagram shows Department activity to the left,College activity to the right:Communicationflows both ways between each pair of groups.Lecturers and students interact in lectures;students and supervisors interact in supervisions. In addition,there are general mechanisms for communicating with lecturers:•During the course,the lecturer will post any up-to-the-minute infor-mation upon an electronic noticeboard accessible to supervisors.This may take various forms:a change in the timing or ordering of topics in the lectures,a supplement to what was said in a lecture,or an answer to a supervisor’s query which is of general interest.The Laboratory7maintains mailing lists for each category of students.Messages can be broadcast to all students using the newsgroup cl.cam.students and to all Directors of Studies using the mailing list undergrad-directors-of-studies@.•Supervisors may at any time send queries or suggestions to the lecturer, who may choose to respond either publicly via the noticeboard or per-sonally.1.2Practical workPractical work is a vital part of the teaching process.There are several kinds. First,there are exercises associated with lecture courses;these are not for-mally assessed,but play an important part in the interaction between stu-dents and supervisors.It is the responsibility of each supervisor to choose appropriate exercises for students to do;typically students will hand in solu-tions and the supervisor will discuss them in a supervision.Second,there is assessed practical work,which contributes to thefinal examination result.The type of work varies from year to year.In Part I A, the50%option has twenty tickable problems(eleven for the25%option). They are discussed with a demonstrator appointed by the Department,who also assesses them.Part I B has four assessed exercises.Two of them are set and marked by a member of the Laboratory’s teaching staff.The other two exercises take the form of a Group Project for which the class divides into teams of about six members.These projects are carried out in the Lent term, and each team is monitored and assessed by a member of teaching staff[3].In each of thefirst two years,practical work is returned to the student after marking.The student keeps a portfolio of marked work and submits it at the end of the year.This submission is a formality of the Examination process;the work is not re-marked.Finally,in Part II and the Diploma there is an individual project for each student.When choosing their project topics,students receive considerable assistance.1.The Department maintains a portfolio of project suggestions,some ofwhich are‘Model Project Proposals’intended primarily for Diploma students with limited computing background.2.Past project dissertations are available for inspection in the Library.3.The student’s Director of Studies will offer advice,and is also respon-sible on behalf of the College for appointing a project supervisor.4.For each student the Department appoints two teaching staff membersas project overseers,whose job is to scrutinize the project proposal.8They look for a suitable level of difficulty,realistic milestones,objective criteria for success and an acceptable degree of ter they monitor the project’s progress.Thus the support for students in project work is another instance of Depart-ment/College collaboration.The procedure for projects is fully described in the Project Briefing Document [13].In Part II (General)there are four assessed exercises.Like the Part I B ones,they are set and marked by a Teaching Officer.1.3Feedback and monitoringThere are many forms of feedback between the teaching activity and other individuals and groups,including committees.A lecturer is often also a su-pervisor or a Director of Studies,so there is much informal interaction which is often of great value.In addition,important feedback is formally recorded.The feedback paths are shown in an extended diagram,as follows.Note that feedback may be concerned with either lecture courses or practical work,so ‘Departmental Staff’includes lecturers and demonstrators,while ‘College Supervisors’includes both course supervisors and project mitteeCommittee for Teaching The four committees mentioned here are described in more detail below (Chapter 3).The feedback works as follows:1.In each College,both students and supervisors interact formally or in-formally with the College’s Director of Studies,who in turn will raise matters of concern in the Directors of Studies Committee.2.The Directors of Studies Committee sends appropriate comments to the Steering Group for Teaching and to the Teaching Committee.3.Students raise problems and make suggestions via their representatives on the Staff-Student Consultative Committee.94.The Staff-Student Consultative Committee usually publishes its min-utes on the Department’s Web page[4];it also transmits problems and suggestions to the Teaching Committee.5.Students offer comments at the end of each lecture course via a paperor electronic questionnaire,which is considered by the Teaching Com-mittee.6.Members of the Teaching Committee often sit in on one or more lec-tures(sometimes even the whole)of a course,especially when it is given for thefirst time.This provides the Teaching Committee with detailed understanding of course content,and especially of the relationship be-tween the content of different courses.7.The Teaching Committee builds experience of course content and lo-gistics,as reported by all the above means,into future design of courses and syllabus,in liaison with lecturers where appropriate(§1.6).It re-ports back to the Staff-Student Consultative Committee when appro-priate.8.The Steering Group for Teaching advises the Head of Department onfuture teaching strategy and modification of teaching procedures,in the light of experience reported by the Teaching Committee and the Directors of Studies Committee.This feedback,and resulting action,is appropriately minuted by the com-mittee concerned;this is often valuable when one wishes to trace the origin and subsequent effect of a particular action.Besides this minuted feedback,additional private feedback to the lecturer is gained in other ways:1.The paper questionnaire mentioned in item5above is typically dis-tributed and collected by the lecturer,who can read the comments be-fore passing the questionnaires to the Student Administrator.(Students who prefer to give the questionnaires directly to the Student Adminis-trator may do so.)2.The lecturer’s appraiser(§7.6)sits in on a lecture given by the appraiseeshortly before each appraisal interview.The appraiser,following a standard aide-memoire,records an assessment which is discussed at the appraisal.The appraisee completes the record with his/her own comments and the result is lodged confidentially.3.Lecturers typically set and mark the examination questions for theircourses(§1.5).The number and quality of the students scripts tell the lecturer much about the course’s effectiveness.101.4How supervisions are organizedSupervision,the teaching of undergraduates in small groups(often just two students),is one of the main pillars which support learning.Supervision is the responsibility of the Colleges.The Director of Studies for Computer Science in each College enlists supervisors for all the College’s students taking the Tripos or Diploma,apart from Part II of the Tripos.As explained above (§1.1),the Director of Studies schedules supervisions appropriately for each student.At the end of each term,the supervisor reports to the Director of Studies on the progress of each student in each course.The situation is different with Part II of the Tripos.In science and en-gineering disciplines the third-year courses are often specialized,and it is difficult for Directors of Studies to enlist appropriate supervisors.For some courses,supervisions are not needed,or are needed to a lesser degree;in some cases examples classes are more appropriate.In1998/99,after discus-sion with Directors of Studies and with the Senior Tutors’Committee(on which each College is represented)the Laboratory agreed to devise a scheme to organize appropriate supervisions for Part II lecture courses on behalf of the Colleges.The main features of the scheme are as follows:•supervisors are enlisted as appropriate by the course lecturer;•the course lecturer recommends the number and timing of supervisions;•the Department administers the assignment of students to supervisors;•if not enough supervisors are available,the lecturer runs examples classes as a substitute.The supervisor’s report on each student still goes to the student’s Direc-tor of Studies,and the supervisor is still paid by the College,for the College retains the responsibility to guide each student’s learning.A Laboratory doc-ument[9]describes the Part II supervision system in more detail.Supervision on Part II(General)and Diploma lecture courses is arranged by the Colleges,as for Parts I A and I B of the Tripos.Project supervisors in Part II and the Diploma are appointed by the Colleges.1.5Assessment and examinationThe full process of assessment and examination is documented in an official paper of the Computer Science Syndicate[11].The summary in this section covers the Examiners,the marking structure and the method of assessment, but does not deal with the method by which marks are normalized,nor with how classes are assigned.11Great care is devoted to uniformity of process.This is applied both to the style(linguistic and typographical)of the papers,and also to the detailed execution of the examination task year-upon-year.An important role in this is played by the Examinations Continuity Officer,a member of staff who is not an Examiner but is the guardian of the Department’s examination process through the years.This Officer maintains a record of detailed changes to the process,and the reasons for changes,ensuring controlled improvement and avoidance of unnecessary change.1.5.1The ExaminersFor Part I A two members of teaching staff are appointed as Examiners each year.Typically each member does a two-year stint,the second year as Senior Examiner.They receive marks from the Natural Sciences Tripos(for the 50%and25%options)and supply marks to the Mathematics Examiners (for students reading Mathematics with Computer Science).For Parts I B,II,II(General)and the Diploma three Examiners are ap-pointed.Typically each member does a three-year stint,the third year as Chairman.In addition an External Examiner,a senior UK academic,is ap-pointed for a spell of three years.The Chairman of Examiners reports each year to the Computer Science Syndicate on the conduct of the examinations,and the External Examiner re-ports each year to the Vice-Chancellor.All these reports are seen not only by the Syndicate but also by the Steering Group for Teaching and by the Teach-ing Committee.Either of these committees may initiate appropriate action if a report raises a matter of concern.In addition,the important aspects of the reports are transmitted to students via the student representatives on the Syndicate.1.5.2Marking structureFor Parts I A,I B and II(General)of the Tripos the examination consists of four written papers and assessed exercises.For Part I A(50%)two,and for Part I A (25%)three,of the written papers are from the Natural Sciences Tripos.As indicated previously(§1.2),the nature and number of the assessed exercises varies between the years,but the principle of assessment is the same.There is no grading of the exercises—students are only required to complete them to an adequate standard.Students do not receive marks,but merely a‘tick’for each completed exercise;they are penalized for any tick not received,and the penalty is such that any student with no ticks would lose one quarter of the possible marks for the year.The intention is the students should succeed; to this end,a limited amount of resubmission is allowed.For Part II and the Diploma there are respectively three and four writ-ten papers,and an individual project.The project counts for a quarter(for12Part II)and a third(for the Diploma)of the total marks.The method of project assessment is outlined below.1.5.3Method of assessmentAll written examinations are marked anonymously(without knowing the candidate’s name).For Part I A this is done partly by those who set the ques-tions,partly by the two Examiners.For the other Parts and the Diploma, the questions are marked by those who set the questions;also the External Examiner is asked to check the marking on a number of scripts at random —or,in the case of Part II,scripts chosen at certain points on the order-of-merit for each paper.The External Examiner may comment and recommend further action.Assessed exercises are assessed by a demonstrator,who will conduct afive to ten minute interview with each student;this suffices to detect any work which been copied,and more positively allows the demonstrator to offer critical comments.In the case of Part I B two of the four assessed exercises are for the group project,in which the size of each group is about six.Each group is monitored by a member of teaching staff at a series of meetings throughout the Lent term;this suffices for to determine whether each group member has contributed significantly,and if so the ticks are awarded.Each individual project dissertation in Part II or the Diploma is read by three assessors.These are the internal Examiners,plus(for Part II only)a fourth member of teaching staff who shares the load.It is unrealistic to mark dissertations anonymously.Each project,with its three independent markings,is discussed.The External Examiner is invited to take part in these discussions.If there is significant discrepancy one or more experts may be consulted,and thereby a marking agreed.1.6Syllabus design and modificationThe Teaching Committee coordinates all design and modification of courses. The Department’sfirm belief is that a course programme should be as little as possible subjected to abrupt large change;if such change occurs frequently it damages the polished quality which comes from internal evolution of the programme.For design and modification within each course the Committee largely relies upon the individual lecturer;only this will ensure detailed quality and internal coherence for that course.For overall coherence of the programme, the Committee continually reviews the consistency and continuity between courses in the same subject area(for example,in operating systems),and also the degree of relevance existing,and precedence required,between courses in different areas.They are assisted in this by the detailed syllabus[6,7],aims13and objectives with which each course is provided.For the coherence of courses in a particular subject area they will,when appropriate,co-opt an expert in that area for assistance in re-designing that part of the programme. After consultation with individual lecturers this may result in the transferral of material between courses,sometimes between one year and the next,and also in the increase and decrease of material.New material often enters the Tripos from experimental courses in Part II. Part II courses are of two broad kinds:those which go more deeply into ma-terial already encountered in earlier years,and experimental courses which present new topics,arising from research in the Department or elsewhere. After a number of years,an experimental course may be dropped,may con-tinue,or may serve as the basis for a new course in Part I A or I B.Another motive for introducing new material is external influence from,for exam-ple,academic review or an assessment by a professional accreditation body (Chapter6).In managing this evolution,the Teaching Committee will also use in-formation from many internal sources of feedback(§1.3):from the Staff-Student Liaison Committee,the Directors of Studies Committee,the student questionnaires on each course,the performance of students on each topic in examinations which is preserved on record by the Examinations Conti-nuity Officer,and of course from internal discussion of the whole teaching programme.14Chapter2Documentation and Records2.1The Student Administration OfficeThe Student Administrator is Lise Gough,lmg30@.Her office is A201,on the secondfloor of the Arup building.She can supply copies of various documents:•lecture notes•supervision guides•syllabus booklets and reading lists*•structure of examinations•lecture appraisal form*•Form and Conduct of Examinations Notices•the Lecture List and related schedules*•information on practical work•the Department’s research handbook*The items labelled with an asterisk are also available via the Laboratory’s Web page.Most of these documents are updated annually at the start of Michaelmas Term.2.2Lecture notes and supervision guidesLecturing staff submit master copies of their lecture notes to the Student Administrator,who arranges for sufficient numbers to be reproduced in the print room.Notes are delivered to the lecture theatre.Spare copies are15。
