I’m studying at 1. one of the best universities(yksi parhaista yliopistoista) in London. It has 2. enormous/ huge / massive(valtava) stone buildings. It has all the facilities a good college should have, including 3. well-furnished(hyvin kalustettu) classrooms and laboratories, and even our library is 4. better than / superior to(parempi kuin) that of any other school. Our new librarian is also 5. much more helpful than / a lot more helpful than(paljon avuliaampi kuin) the previous one.
Our dean is 6. by far the strictest(kaikista ankarin) disciplinarian there is, but I don’t think he is 7. as scary as / as frightening as(yhtä pelottava kuin) some of the students say. However, if anyone violates the rules, they get punished.
8. “The more active(Mitä aktiivisempi) you are in your studies,
9. the more versatile(sitä monipuolisempi) your future options will be”, he says. At our university special attention is paid to behaviour and punctuality.
10. The best-behaved(Parhaiten käyttäytyvä) and 11. the most punctual / most punctual(täsmällisin) student is awarded a prize every year.
My university is very 12. similar to(samanlainen kuin) my dad’s school, except his was an all-boys school. My dad says getting a good education is becoming
13. more and more valuable / more and more worthwhile(yhä arvokkaampaa) in the modern world. But he also says it is 14. even more vital / even more crucial(vielä elintärkeämpää) to do what really makes me happy.
