As is shown in the bar chart, the number of applicants for civil servants has increased abruptly —by about 10 times, from 100,000 in 2003 to 1,000,000 in 2005.

Several factors may contribute to the rush. First and foremost, working as civil servants in China is relatively stable, and Chinese people have a traditional preference for maintaining a life-long career. The

rising interest could also be attributed to the unique social status. Comparatively speaking , civil servants are generally highly respected by common people in China. Last, we should not neglect the benefits such as the welfare in government departments.

Compared with the striking number of applicants for becoming civil servants, the vacancies issued by the government are scarce. Thus, it is suggested that applicants should weigh their own advantages and

of books from1985 to 2005. Obviously enough, the number of novels and books of philosophy and society has declined gradually, with that of foreign languages books and computer science ones enjoying much more popularity.

Though different readers have their own particular tastes, this phenomenon involves several complicated factors.

How People Spend Their Holidays

As is clearly shown in the table that there was a dramatic change in the way people spent their holidays between 1990 and 2000. Especially, in 1990, 63% of people spent their holidays at home, while the figure decreased considerably to 24% in 2000. there are three reasons for this phenomenon.

To begin with, with the development of market-oriented economy, people earn by far more money than they used to, making it possible for them to afford traveling expenses. In addition, people realize the importance of getting well-informed about the outside world in this modern era to develop their potential. For example, a traveller may encounter or talk with someone of a different cultural background so as to broaden his vision. Last but not least, by traveling outside, people are close to nature, which is not only beneficial to both their health and peace of mind. In short, more and more people take the occasion of holiday to travel outside and relax themselves.

As far as I am concerned, I prefer to go traveling instead of staying at home during holidays. On the one hand, I love meeting different people and take in some fresh ideas. On the other hand, it is agreed that the world is becoming a global village. No one could confine himself within his small circle of families or relatives. In brief, I have benefited a lot and will benefit more from traveling during the holidays.
