III. Read, translate and reproduce the dialogues:
         Dialogue 1.
OLAF: I say, John. What is a tutor?
JOHN: The Tutorial System is one of the ways in which Oxford and
       Cambridge differ from all the other English universities. Every
       student has a tutor and as soon as you come to Oxford one of the first
       things you do is to go and see your tutor. He, more or less, plans your
       work, suggests the books you should read and sets work for you to
       do, for example an essay to write. Each week you go to him in his
       rooms, perhaps with two or three other students, and he discusses
       with you the work that you have done, criticizes in detail your essay
       and sets you the next week’s work.
OLAF: Does the tutor also give lectures?
JOHN: Yes, he does.
OLAF: But aren’t lectures given by the professors?
JOHN: Yes, though professors don’t give a great many lectures. They are
       often appointed not so much to do teaching work as to carry on
       research in their particular subjects.
OLAF: Can you go to any lecture you like, no matter whether it is by a tutor
       or professor of your college or not ?
JOHN: Yes. Lectures are organized not by the colleges but by the
       university, and so any member of the university may attend, for all
       students are members of a college and of the university.
OLAF: You said that lectures were «organized by the university». Where is
       the university?
JOHN: It must seem rather strange to you but there isn’t really any
       university at Oxford as there is, for example, at Manchester or Bristol
       or Edinburgh. Oxford (like Cambridge) is a collection of colleges,
       each self-governing and independent. «The University» is merely an
       administrative body that organizes lectures, arranges examinations,
       gives degrees, etc. The colleges are the real living Oxford and each
       has its own character and individuality.
