问题 HOURS SPENT ON STUDYING DURING THE FINAL EXAM PERIOD

ANALYSIS
Study conducted by: The Association of Universities(AU)
Conducted: April, 1, 2010
Margin of error: ± 2%
The study conducted by the AU at four major universities in our province analyzed how many hours the students spent studying during their exam period. While our past studies have focused on the study habits of students on a wider scale throughout the year, this study took a closer look at the number of hours spent on studying during the final exam period. We went to each campus and took an equal number of surveys from students in each year, surveying a total of 400 students from four different universities. Each respondent indicated the number of hours they studied during the final week of exams.
The survey showed a surprising result. The students at three of the four universities increased their study hours as they got closer to their graduate years. However, Western University showed a completely opposite trend. The first year students spent over 70 hours a week studying while the 4th year students only spent about 20 hours during their final exam week. This, according to the university officials, maybe the reason why students at Western University have the lowest number of students graduating.
Which of the following methods was most likely used to collect the data?

选项 A、Phone poll
B、Direct mail
C、Questionnaire
D、Campus paper

答案C

解析 文章第一段的最后写到Each respondent indicated the number of hours they studied during the final week of exams,可推断是问卷调查。答案是(C)。
