Passage 15
Many teachers believe that the responsibilities for learning lie with the student. If a long reading assignment is given, instructors expect students to be familiar with the 41 in the reading even if they do not discuss it in class or take an examination. The 42 student is considered to be one who is motivated to learn for the sake of 43 , not the one interested only in getting high grades. Sometimes homework is returned with brief written comments but without a grade. Even if a grade is not given, the student is 44 for learning the material assigned. When research is assigned, the professor expects the student to take it actively and to complete it with 45 guidance. It is the student's responsibility to find books, magazines, and articles in the library. Professors do not have the time to explain 46 a university library works; they expect students, particularly graduate students, to be able to exhaust the reference 47 in the library. Professors will help students who need it, but 48 that their students should not be too dependent on them. In the United States professors have many other duties besides teaching, such as administrative or research work. 49 , the time that a professor can spend with a student outside of class is limited. If a student has problems with classroom work, the student should either 50 a professor during office hours or make an appointment.
