New friends, Fresh lifestyle, Better career opportunities… Those are attractions of overseas study for young people in China. “Start early, finish strong.” Some of them say.
More than 300 universities from 27 countries and regions were represented at last weekend’s international education exposition (展览).
| A. The US The US has always been on the top destination list for Chinese students，with its high education standards and enough scholarships. Good news: It’s easier to get a US student visa nowadays. Last year, the refusal rate was only 20 to 30 percent, much lower than a few years before, according to US Embassy. Concerns: There’re a lot to prepare. The TOFEL, GRE…It’s longer time to apply to US universities than schools in the UK or Australia. Useful link: www.Usembassychina.org.cn |
| B. The Netherlands Tulips, windmills and wooden shoes：this was the image that once drew tourists. But Holland has more to offer. Good news: From 2005, Holland and China started recognizing each other’s education certificates. And from 2006, the government provides 4 million euros (欧元) for scholarships to Chinese students every year. Concerns: Not many Chinese know about Dutch education. Speaking Dutch sounds not easy.

| C. The UK Easier access to visas and international environment are the UK’s great attractions for Chinese students. Good news: There are many new scholarships this year, both from the government and universities, such as the Scotland International Scholarship. Concerns: Money. It’s expensive to study in the UK, with an average cost of 200,000 to 300,000 yuan a year. Useful link: www. Educationuk.org.cn |
| D. Canada Canada’s multicultural environment is good for students’ studies and careers. Good news: Students are allowed to take on campus part-time jobs during their studies from last year. It’ll help pay living expenses. Students can get two-year work permits after graduation. Concerns: Only a limited number of scholarships are available. They rarely cover the full cost of a study programme. Useful link: www.studycanada.cn |
| E. Italy Italy is getting a lot of attention this year in China．With the China-Italy Year. Its art, culture and fashion appeal to many students. Good news: China and Italy will recognize each other’s educational certificates soon. Its government-funded universities are tuition free to international students. Concerns: The language is a problem. Most classes are taught in Italy. Useful link: www.studyinitaly.cn |
| F. Australia Good climate, high quality education，favorable immigration policy: these make Australia one of the most popular choices among Chinese students. Good news: A new E-visa policy ensures a quick application process (four weeks compared with l2 weeks before). Concerns: Tuition fees have risen in past years. The total cost is about 200,000 yuan to attend a university located in big cities like Sydney or Melbourne. Useful link: www.studentsidp.com |
Just the mention of the TOEFL, GRE and GAMT exams brings a thought of long hours of dull paper work. But that idea is becoming increasingly out of date. As planned, computerized tests will begin next year which will bring a series of changes 
from test psychology to scoring techniques.
From computer - equipped rooms, examinees will answer the questions on a computer. If they are sure about their choices, they can pass to the next question by pressing the entry (条目) “next”. Then another question will be randomly (任意地) selected from a vast test item bank and appear on the screen. After answering all the questions, examinees can choose the entry “quit” if they are not satisfied with their performance, or “score” if they want to see the result. Scores will be calculated immediately and appear on the screen. By that point, student's marks are official--there is no going back.
Since they greatly shorten the painful waiting process-which used to be two or three months, computerized tests have won worldwide popularity. Besides, there will be no rushing to the registration offices (登记处) for these exams. Computerized tests will be given every workday in an exam center with all three kinds of tests being held in the same room. All test ta
kers need to do is to call the exam center and book their seats for a particular day.
In addition it will become technically possible to apply new testing procedures. In the past, each examinee had the same set of test items despite differences in their ability. Under a computerized system, however, if the computer judges an answer is right, a question of a relatively difficult nature will follow. But if an examinee continues to give wrong answers and is judged as un-qualified by the computer system, he will be automatically denied the chance to go further in the test.
【小题1】 Computerized tests allow the examinee to know their scores ______.
| A．immediately on a central computer for scoring test papers |
| B．a few minutes after the exam with the help of a test center worker |
| C．on the next day after they have taken the exam |
| D．immediately after the exam by means of the same computer |
| A．he can admit defeat and give it up | B．he can ask the computer to give some advice |
| C．he can ask another chance within a few days | D．he is allowed to do it once again |
| A．different exams can be taken in the same room |
| B．one doesn’t need to rush to the registration officer for taking an exam |
| C．it will be much easier to pass an examination |
| D．one can take an exam almost at any time of the year |
| A．refused | B．allowed | C．lost | D．passed |
