Higher education in this country is not a nation-wide system. It’s not tightly organised or monolytic, its institutions differ considerably in size and sponsorship. They range from two-year community colleges to major research universities of a hundred thousand students.
The next thing to know is, that there are 2 types of Universities and colleges in the United States, I mean private and state (not federal). The difference between them is the following: private colleges are very expensive, they are generally smaller and the tuition fees are much higher. In the state colleges and Universities the fees are much lower, especially for state residents. They are subsidized by state governments. The University of California and the State University of New York are two examples of such public schools. Yet it is more prestigious to get a degree at a private University where the quality of education is almost always better.
As far as entrance standards are concerned they differ considerably from University to University. All the applicants must have a satisfactory high school transcript (аттестат) which helps University officials determine the applicant’s capacity to do satisfactory work at a University. While still in high school the student also takes the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) for short if he wants to apply to a University. The applicant must also write an essay of some kind, often autobiographical. An interview is usually required when one applies to a private University.

d. Making money from reality TV
e. Problems with reality TV

The first reality TV show in the world was called Expedition Robinson and it was shown in Sweden in 1997. Half the population of the country watched the final episode and a new kind of TV programme was born. Two years later in Holland, the first series of Big Brother was filmed. Again, it was a fantastic success and the final programme was watched by million people. There are now more than 20 countries around the world which have Big Brother or Survivor on their TV screens. The ordinary people who take part in the programmes are known by millions of people in their own countries and reality TV has become big business.

For the TV producers, reality TV is a dream come true because many of the programmes cost nothing to make. At some point, the television viewers are asked to telephone the programme – to vote or to apply to take part in the show. It is the cost of these telephone calls that pays for the show. One of the most popular shows is Pop Idol. In the show, a group of attractive people are made into pop stars. The viewers vote for their favourite person on the show. The winner makes a record, his or her pictures are published on the covers of magazines, millions of copies of the record are sold and then … they are quickly forgotten.

But not everyone is happy about reality TV. In Portugal, two TV channels got into trouble because they showed too much of the private lives of the people in the shows. In France, reality TV is called “rubbish TV” and the studios were attacked three times in one week. In Greece, Big Brother ways described as an insult to human rights and civilization. But despite the problems, reality TV continues to do well in most countries and it will be here for a long time.
