　　LONDON(Reuters)－Achieving three A grades at A-level will no longer be enough to ensure a place at a top university, academics warned on Wednesday．

　　From September sixth-formers will begin studying A-level exams which will include a higher grade of A for those getting marks of 90 percent or above in their papers．

　　Those applying for Oxford or Cambridge will need new top grades to win a place, the 1994 Group of 19 leading universities said in a report．

　　It said it expected the two elite universities to take a large majority of those awarded three or two A grades．

　　Outside Oxbridge, students will need at least two A grades and one standard A grade to be confident of getting a place at their chosen university．

　　The extra grade is being added to meet complaints from universities that too many pupils gain maximum grades in A-levels, making it hard to select the most able．

　　But the 1994 Group, which does not include Oxford or Cambridge, said there were concerns among its members that pupils from fee-paying independent schools would dominate the A grades．

　　It said this could set back efforts by its member universities, who include Durham, St．Andrews and Warwick, to widen the social range of their intake．

　　The report estimated that just 3,500 out of 660,000 students would be awarded three A*s when they take the first exams in the new A-level courses in 2010．

　　That compares with the 26,200 students who gained three A grades in A-levels in 2006．

　　The government said there was no evidence to show that state school pupils would be disadvantaged by the introduction of the new grade．

　　“It is up to institutions to decide how they balance their assessments of applications with their desire to be fair and to offer places to applicants with the greatest potential, regardless of background,”said a spokesman for the Department for Children, Schools & Families．

(给……消毒) door knobs,take the temperatures of children as they arrive and remind
the campers not to share canned Coke.
     Many of the 12,000-plus summer camps in the United States are making greater efforts
to guard against the spread of the new A/H1N1 flu.
     Many parents are debating whether they should stop their kids from enjoying the summer
camp because of the new flu.Jing Zhang of New York said she decided to keep her
5-year-old daughter at a local day-care center."Why would I want to spend a fortune on
the summer camp when the risk is the same?" she asked.
     Dr.Daniel Rauch,said the risk of catching A/H1N1 flu is only greater in close or group
settings,for instance,when kids sleep near each other in beds,tents or cabins.Unless children
already have potential illness or immunodeficiencies (免疫缺陷),going to summer camps
does not necessarily have a greater risk of catching A/H1N1 flu than going to public spaces
such as playgrounds and shopping centers,he added.
     Some camp administrators said they would send any sick child home immediately or
separate them in a clinic and let them play board games while they are being observed.
"We try to create a temporary camping center in the summer and we are very vigilant
about it," said Andy Pritikin,director of Liberty Lake Day Camp in Mansfield,who sent a
child with fever home last week,with full credit to come back later in the summer.
     "Parents should know whether camp nurses are available.And if there's only a bottle
of medicine and a bed in the back room,and it takes three and a half hours to get to the
nearest hospital,parents need to know that," said Sean Nienow,director of the National
Camp Association.

LONDON（Reuters）—Achieving three A grades at A-level will no longer be enough to ensure a place at a top university, academics warned on Wednesday.

From September sixth-formers will begin studying  A-level exams which will include a higher grade of A for those getting marks of 90 percent or above in their papers.

Those applying for Oxford or Cambridge will need new top grades to win a place, the 1994 Group of 19 leading universities said in a report.

It said it expected the two elite universities to take a large majority of those awarded three or two A grades.

Outside Oxbridge, students will need at least two A grades and standard A grade to be confident of getting a place at their chosen university.

The extra grade is being added to meet complaints from universities that too many pupils gain maximum grades in A-levels, making it hard to select the most able.

But the 1994 Group, which does not include Oxford or Cambridge, said there were concerns among its members that pupils from fee-paying independent schools would dominate the A grades.

It said this could set back efforts by its member universities, who include Durham, St. Andrews and Warwick, to widen the social range of their intake.

The report estimated that just 3,500 out of 660,000 students would be awarded three A*s when they take the first exams in the new A-level courses in 2010.

That compares with the 26,200 students who gained three A grades in A-levels in 2006.

The government said there was no evidence to show that state school pupils would be disadvantaged by the introduction of the new grade.
