<p>这个问题涉及了（整体）教育阶段的划分与高等教育内部阶段的划分，而这二者有所不同，所以问题才会显得奇怪。同样的问题在英语中也存在，但似乎不那么明显。原问题可以近似地用英语这么问：</p>

<p>“大学生”这个词的词义基本等价于“本科生”。习惯上，“本科生”一词基本仅在讨论或考虑后续的高等教育阶段时（即硕士研究生和博士研究生时）才会使用；而在其他情况下基本都会使用“大学生”一词。而“研究生”则一般泛指本科之后的高等教育阶段，同时涵盖硕士研究生和博士研究生；有时偏义指向硕士研究生。但无论是本科生还是硕士生或博士生，他们学习的场所都是大学，即高等教育的场所。</p>

To nitpick on your otherwise stellar grammar: 愣住 is usually intransitive, so "×我被以下的问题愣住了" is ungrammatical (although understandable).  The word to use here is 难住, as in 我被以下的问题难住了.

As for an English equivalent, I would probably use _go to_, or rephrase with _is a X student_. The actual sentences given are of course entirely tautologous, and they sound sillier in English than in Chinese (‘primary school students go to primary school’… well, duh – or even worse, ‘primary school students are primary school students’, a truism if ever I saw one).

这些句子描述学生的学习阶段。
