Under the policy,high school students who win awards in national Olympic competitions could get‘‘extra credits',up to 20points for the national college entrance exam.Students with talentin sports and students who are from ethnic groups can also benefit from this policy.The extra credits have increased these students'chances of being admitted by famous universities.Some parents were found to have helped their children fabricate(伪造)award experiences or falsify qualifications to get extra credits.
"It has harmed education equality,"the ministry said.
Xiong Bingqi,vice-chief of the 21st Century Education Research Institute,said the policy is designed to help students who have special talents but may be weak in academic performance to have a chance to receive higher education.It will still be needed but it is time to make the rules fairer,"he said.
The ministry said it will reduce the range of competitions whose winners can get extra credits,and limit the winners,privileges.
The new policy will apply to students who begin high school in 2011,it said.
Chen Lei,a mother of a 10-year-old girl,said she welcomed the ministry's policy adjustmentas she does not want her daughter to became an Olympic competition geek.
But not all the Chinese parents welcomed the new policy."It is like a thunderbolt for me.My 13-year-old son has spent so much time studying Olympic math,and participated in so many technological competitions during vacations.It is useless now,"said Dong Wen,a 43-year-old mother.
A student said,"Many students have changed the current study plan,and they can abandon the competition.I will be interested in learning the courses which can improve my abilities."
Yuan Guiren,minister of education,told China Daily that the reform is an attempt to consider the overall quality of an applicant."But the country will not stop the national college entrance examination as it is still the most objective way to evaluate talent in China,"he said.

6.When choosing the perfect house,many people choose high ceilings and a sense of space,despite high price and the higher cost of heating expense in the winter.Now a new study suggests that tall rooms excite the brain and encourage people to explore space,based on previous research that high ceilings are linked to a sense of freedom.A psychologist thinks that the combination of a room that promotes free thinking and is stimulating to the senses,explains why people choose that kind of homes.
Dr.Oshin Vartanian of the University of Toronto-Scarborough,told Fast Design:"On the one hand,rooms with high ceilings improve exploration."An international study,led by Dr.Vartanian scanned the brains of volunteers while they looked at images of 200 rooms,half of which had high ceilings.Participants indicated whether each image was beautiful or not while in the MRI scanner and the experts found that people were more likely to find spaces with high ceilings attractive,than those with low ceilings.This suggests that high ceilings capture people's attention and improve the senses,encouraging people to explore the space they are in.But because the results didn't show any difference in brain regions linked to pleasure or emotion,the study,published in journal of environmental psychology,hints that high ceilings don't instantly put people in a good mood.
In 2007,another study,published in Journal of Consumer Research,revealed that the height of ceilings affects how people think.Marketing experts Joan Meyers-Levy and Rui Zhu modified the height of ceilings in rooms to study how participants responded.They discovered that high ceilings seem to cause people to think more freely,encouraging creativity and abstraction,while lower ceilings promoted confined thinking.For example,one experiment placed volunteers in a room with a high 3-meter ceiling,while asking them to solve anagrams.They were able to complete work puzzles faster than those in a room with a lower ceiling.
Dr.Vartanian said,"Knowing that people's preference for rooms with higher ceilings might be driven by the ability of those spaces to promote visuospatial exploration helps partly explain why people opt to live in such spaces."
