Complete the task
JaneTom Hi, Tom. I've heard you've entered Oxford University. Congratulations! Thanks, Jane. It wasn't easy, but I studied a lot. And, you know what, I've got the highest grade in the written work. Cool! When do your lessons start? The academic year at Oxford University begins in October and is divided into three terms also called trimesters. Each trimester even has its own name. Wow! Are terms divided according to the seasons?Not really. The first trimester, Michaelmas (/ˈmɪkəlməs/), is from October to December. The second one is called Hilary and lasts from January to March. The last trimester is Trinity which is from April to June. That's so Oxfordish! Where are you going to live? Are you going to rent a flat? No, I'm not. I'll get a place at one of the residence halls. Are there many of them? Can you choose the one you like?No, it depends on the college I choose, but I still haven't decided on that. How many colleges are there?There are 38 colleges and it's very important to choose the right one because after lectures and seminars at the faculty I'll spend most of my free time in college. That sounds interesting. I wish you all the best in your future studies.Thanks a lot!
