have quickened their pace of reform in recent years. changing eollment practices and higher tuition fees constitute and important part of the reform. schools which once admitted students almost exclusively according to state plans are becoming more accepting of students sent by work groups for further training and those who pay their own fees.regular universities and colleges plan to eoll about 786 200 students this year, up 158 200 or 25 percent over last years figure. of these, 216 000, or 27.4 percent, will be sent by their work groups or will pay their own way.in the past, the state paid all tuition and school fees for university students, a matter of policy since new china was established in 1949. although this practice guaranteed the supply of qualified personnel, it brought a heavy burden to the sate, hindering further development of higher education. since higher education is non—compulsory education in china, to charge appropriate fees will help improve school facilities and expedite the development of education in this stage. as an added benefit, paying their own way will encourage students to study harder.the reform will take effect in two directions. state—financed students will begin paying part of the costs of their education, and more self—paying students will be accepted.in august 1989, under the direction of the state council, the state education commission, the ministry of finance and thesate price bureau drew up stipulations concerning the amount of charges on tuition, accommodation and other expenses for students of institutions of higher learning. beginning from that year, freshmen at regular universities and colleges and professional schools (including cadres taking special training courses and students working on a second degree) were charged 100 yuan (about us $17) each for their tuition fee, and this low charge is expected to be raised gradually. the figure was higher in special economic zones and economically developed regions such as guangdong province and shanghai, but was capped at 300 yuan. students living on campus paid about 20 yuan per year for accommodation and the charge was slightly higher for better furnishing. normal school students and those admitted on scholarships need only pay for accommodation. reduced tuitions and fees are available to students in need of financial assistance, but accommodation expenses will remain the same.in june 1992, the state education commission, the ministry of finance and the state price bureau decided to allow regular institutions of higher education to set their own tuition rates and charges for accommodation, short—term training programs, correspondence courses and night school. these should be determined according to the needs of each school, the abilities of students to pay and general conditions in each area. the tuition for students in the sciences and engineering can range from 300 to 500 yuan per academic year. liberal arts, history and economics students of the fine arts pay 400 to 600 yuan per year, and students of the fine arts 400 to 750 yuan. statistics for 1992 show students paid an average of 340 yuan in tuition that year, only 5 percent of the real cost.measures have been taken to limit the possible detrimental affects of rising tuition. shanghai, for instance, exempts the children of revolutionary martyrs from paying tuition. and these costs may be reduced or waived for students with limited familyfinancial support as their parents are either both dead or are receiving subsidies from their work units. some colleges have also set up work—study programs to benefit students with financial difficulties.charges for correspondence courses and night school are equal to or slightly higher than those for full-time students eolled according to the state plan.with their improvement of their living standards and the deepening of reform, people in general accept the changes in the tuition system. to facilitate the development of higher education, the increases in tuition rates will be more flexible and diversified. student payments will be augmented by finding from the state, enterprises and funds raised from the public. laws and regulations will by enacted to ensure steady progress, and overseas organizations and individuals are encouraged to set up and operate schools in china.--21st

(5 points for each; 30 points in total)1. ms. stuart says her experience with online learing was wonderful but also served to challenge one of the false ideas about internet study: the notion that it doesn’t require as much commitment and discipline as conventional classroom courses. if anything, stuart believes she works harder than most traditional on-site students. she says she can provide firsthand evidence that the idea that distance learning is easy is a misconception.2. the cover story of this winter’s alumni bulle tin, which was designed partly by the university of california’s governmentrelations office in washington, was also a shrewd ploy to cement relations with jerry lewis, who is a key member of the house appropriations committee.3. individual professors and college administrators have also been increasing their political donations, according to the center for responsive politics. gifts by university employees to presidential candidates totaled more than ＄2.4 million in the first three quarters of 2003, according to the center. the leading recipient was howarddean, who collected ＄719, 000, and close behind was george w. bush, who received ＄680, 000.4. in effect, the bush doctrine establishes two classes of sovereignties: the sovereignty of the united states, which takes precedence over international treaties and obligations; and the sovereignty of all other countries, which is subject to the will of the united states. this is reminiscent of george orwell’s animal farm: all animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.5. colleges and universities still shy away from organized political fundraising and campaign advertising – the stock in trade of modern lobbying. nonprofit status or state laws prohibit many of them from engaging in it.6. don wise wandered into the living room of his home in leewood one evening last semptember. his ten-year-old son, mike, and a 12-year- old friend were sitting in front of alarge-screen television set. they were playing a vedio game they had rented called 007.ii. read the passage and choose the right answer to each question.（5 points for each;

50 points in total）blacks’ history in america (1660—1860)american blacks are without doubt all of african origin. the first group of 20 blacks sold to english settlers of virginia in 1619 were brought in by a dutch ship. from that time to the mid-19th century, some 14 million blacks were transported from west africa to virginia and other southern colonies of the new world. almost all of themwere sold into slavery and subjected to white rule. not only would they work for their masters as slaves for life but their descendants would also become slaves the moment they were born.of course no person would have voluntarily chosen to be sold away from his native country. he was either sold by his ownrulers or captured by white slave traders as portrayed in alex haley’s noval roots. some of the details in haley’s story were similar to those in other books. the kidnapping of slaves and their miserable life under the supervision of slave owners and overseers existed and the conditions on the voyage from africa to america were horrible. the slaves’ bodies were bound together and their limbs either tied or chained with shackles like kunta, an important character in roots. the air in the holds was filthy with the smell of sweat, vormit and body waste. when they caught infections diseases, many slaves died on the voyage. some even died of flogging or starvation. it was said that only about half slaves could survive the voyage. though some survived, the fate of those survivors was no better than being sold at auction like animals.after 1700, a large number of africans arrived in america. in the first half of the century, they made up 20 percent of the colonial population. many of them were in the southern colonies. they worked either on plantations or in houses. then in 1793, the invention of the cotton gin by eli whitney resulted in a new demand for more slaves as it provided an inexpensive method of separating cotton seeds from fibres. with the increase in cotton acreage, slavery persisted in the south and became the foundation of its economy.slavery was anyhow a moral evil. it was inhuman and was also an institution restricting the development of industry. many people, mostly people in the north desired an immediate end to the evil institution so that they would be able to develop industry. some assumed that the only way to solve the problem was to ship all blacks back to africa. with the aid of such leading figures as james mooe (president), john marshall (supreme court justice), hey clay and daniel webster (senators),。
