Speak on Russian Education using the vocabulary and texts a and b. Here is a passage to help you. Add more details.
Образование в России
Система образования в России отличается скорее не по форме, а по содержанию. Как и в других странах мира, обучение начинается с поступления в начальную школу в 5-7 лет и фактически может продолжаться еще 10-15 лет в той или иной форме: это и средние профессиональные колледжи, институты и университеты, дающие высшее образование, и аспирантура, в которой проводятся диссертационные исследования, а дальше - самообразование.
Координационным центром, осуществляющим контроль над разными ветвями народного образования (а оно действительно народное в России), является Министерством образования Российской Федерации, которое издает документы, регламентирующие деятельность каждого образовательного учреждения в отдельности. С одной стороны, это дает возможность обеспечивать определенный уровень обучения, но с другой стороны, это является в некотором смысле тормозом, так как ограничивает самостоятельность образовательных структур и снижает их творческий потенциал…

Imperial College. London
The Imperial College of Science and Technology is one of the oldest and most important scientific institutes in England. It now forms part of the University of London, and fulfils the dual purpose of teaching students and fostering research in science and technology.
Imperial College began as the Royal College of Science in the middle of the nineteenth century, when it was realized that teaching and pursuing science and its applications was necessary to fully carry out the industrial revolution and keep Britain in the forepost of technological advance. Many famous scientists were associated with the early days of the College, for example Huxley and Wells. Prince Albert, the royal patron, also closely followed scientific work at the College. With the addition of the City and Guilds Institute and the Royal School of Mines/ Imperial College acquired large engineering facilities in addition to those for pure scientific research.
Today the main departments are: Physics (of which Professor Blockett is well known), Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aeronautics, Mining Technology, Chemistry and Mathematics. A large new department is the Biochemical Department, headed by Professor Chain.
Imperial College is fortunate in having several new buildings with many excellent laboratories, and more are being built. A Computer Section develops the facilities of the College's two computers for the use of all departments. The College also has facilities outside London in a biological field station and a mining research station.
At the present time about 2000 students are studying at Imperial College for their first degree. There are also about 1000 research students, working for higher degrees and participating in the research work of the College. A large proportion of them are overseas students from many different countries. There is much excellent research work undertaken at Imperial College in a wide range of subjects. Now research groups include one working on traffic problems, an operational research group, and a history of science department.
Imperial College is still growing in size and numbers, and as an almost independent institution it rivals many other colleges of London University put together. It is possible that it will be associated with other institutes nearby, the Royal Schools of Art and Music, to develop into a separate University. In this way it is hoped to continue to train specialized scientists and engineers in a more varied cultural atmosphere than a university is supposed to embody.
