“Chinese fever”has been spreading across the world in recent years. More than 30 million people in other countries have been learning Chinese. Why has Chinese become so popular? We think that there are three reasons for it.

Firstly, China is a country with a long history, which has made the Chinese language richer and more attractive. Secondly, China’s economy has been developing very quickly in recent years. Many overseas businessmen who want to enter the Chinese market need to understand China and the Chinese culture. Most importantly, China is becoming increasingly active in international affairs and has become the focus of many other countries’ attention.

In a word, there is no doubt that the Chinese language will become more and more popular.

My grandmother Adele loved culture and was generous with its gifts. When I was a child, she took me to museums, restaurants, dances. She showered me with gifts from her travels around the world. But I can only remember her giving me one book ― a book that, to this day, I have not read. She presented me with her own favorite childhood book: Hans Brinker. My grandmother was happy to share this book with me. She even decorated the title page with her proud writing.

I tried to read it. I adored reading, and would dive into a new pile of books from the library all at once. But something about Hans Brinker just wouldn’t let me in. The story was set in Holland, a long time ago. It felt dull and unfamiliar ― even though I was a fan of classics of other times and places. I simply read the first pages over and over. I could not progress.

Standing on a bookshelf in our living room, the book was like something I avoided. It scolded me for not being interested, for not trying hard enough, for disappointing my grandmother.

The book started to fit in, almost forgotten, until Adele asked. Had I read it? Did I like it? Always determined, she wanted to know the answer. I would make some kind of excuse, feel bad, and open it again, hoping for a new reaction. The book weighed on me.

Years passed and finally Adele and I both accepted that I would never read Hans Brinker. Eventually I cleared the book from the shelf. The Hans Brinker experience led me to set a rule that I’ve lived by ever since: Do not ask about a book given as a gift. Don’t ask, despite your desire to discuss it to grow closer. The desire for such connection is what gives book-giving with special meaning ― and increases the owner’s possibility to be a letdown.

Guilt is basically the same as for all gifts, though. If the giver doesn’t have the pleasure of seeing or hearing about the gift being enjoyed, and asks whether it is, then the owner ― unless she can truthfully say “yes” ― either has to admit to not liking the present, or else lie on the spot. Neither is pleasant. So, don’t ask.

When six the very best students from different cities in Guangdong province all together chose universities in Hong Kong; when the very best students of Beijing picked up HK University while giving up the nearby Peking or Tsinghua University; when the highest enrollment (录取) rate of Hong Kong Science and Industry University reached 48:1, it’s the high time to ask where the real education heaven for students in China is.

Years ago, the answer certainly would be “Peking or Tsinghua University”. But now no one could give the exact reaction without hesitation. The only sure thing is that HK universities have gradually showed an unusual attraction to a great many mainland students.

It's no doubt to call this HK craze (狂热), which is even out of the expectation of those HK universities themselves.

How can HK universities shake the steady foundations of Peking and Tsinghua and attract so many mainland students?

First, Hong Kong universities offer large-amount scholarship, especially for the top students who can receive the sum scholarship as much as 400,000 HK dollars. Since higher education has become a kind of heavy burden of many families, it’s easy to understand why the reaction to the generous offering of HK universities is great.

Second, most HK universities receive professors and students from all over the world and carry out bilingual (双语) education. This kind of excellent language atmosphere is another attraction for mainland students.

Furthermore, university students in Hong Kong have a better chance to study abroad as exchange students.

Can mainland top universities like Peking or Tsinghua University calm as before when facing the unexpected competition from HK? Will they take relevant measures to win back the top students who once help them set the worldwide reputation? Time will explain it.

The fierce competition brought by HK universities can be a good thing for an entire improvement of education in China. After the awakening and action taking of mainland universities, they can perform better together with HK universities.

At least, it reminded the mainland universities the tuition fees (学费) are among students’ top concern when they are choosing universities. It’s time to move.

1.What is the passage mainly talking about?

A. The competition between HK University and Peking University.

B. Higher education in Hong Kong.

C. Some thought brought by the enrollment of HK universities.

D. The fall of mainland universities.

2.Top students from mainland apply for HK universities because ______.

A. HK universities offer higher scholarship, better environment and more opportunities for their further study

B. they concern only about the tuition fees when choosing universities

C. many students now would love to study abroad to get a better experience

D. Peking university has lost its worldwide reputation

3.From the passage we can see HK universities _______.

A. didn’t mean to enroll top students from mainland

B. are proud of their teaching staff and facilities

C. have strict enrollment rules and only 1 out of 48 students can get the chance to study there

D. didn’t expect their enrollment of mainland students would be so popular

4.What does the author mean by saying “It’s time to move” in the last paragraph?

A. The opportunities come for top students to study abroad.

B. Mainland universities should take measures as soon as possible to attract students.

C. Mainland universities should make full preparations to challenge HK universities.

D. Top students should be offered further education free of charge.
