问题    Technology has helped spur the globalization of the world and with it, the realization that building a safe, fair, thriving planet is the responsibility of all. In April this year, a BBC World Service poll of over 20,000 people in 18 countries found that over half of the respondents from emerging economies identified themselves as global rather than national citizens. 【F1】Thus, it is important that new generations have access to education that emphasizes this global-centric outlook to promote a more interconnected international community.
   The fast-developing Asian higher education sector, in particular, is uniquely placed to offer a global experience. Diversity is one of the strong selling points here as the continent of Asia comprises 48 countries, all with distinct cultures and traditions. 【F2】When foreign students from other regions are added into the mix, this results in a wildly diverse student body that exposes individuals to different opinions and schools of thought, which helps to promote greater understanding and acceptance overall.
   With Asia’s growing prominence, being able to speak some of the region’s common languages is considered a distinct advantage. Many students choose to immerse themselves in Asian countries to pick up cultural nuances and improve their fluency while studying.
   The majority of the "emerging economies that will shine this year" as tapped by Forbes are Southeast Asian countries. 【F3】Therefore, students of their universities will gain a unique insider’s perspective of their policies, trends and issues, which will give graduates an advantage when it comes to job hunting.
   The relatively low tuition fees in Asia are also a main draw for prospective students. However, cheaper fares do not translate to a lower quality of education in Asia. 【F4】Given that many Asian universities are fairly new, this suggests that a significant, accelerated effort is being made through government investment and policymaking to bring the institutions to an internationally competitive level —and it is paying off.
   In fact, besides affordable living and tuition expenses, Asian countries are sweetening the deal for eastbound foreign students by offering a variety of funding opportunities such as scholarships, as well as value-for-money exchange programs—some of which even provide a monthly allowance.
   This courting of foreign talent extends to the teaching staff as well. 【F5】A "global competition for talent" is emerging between Asian countries when it comes to institutions of higher learning. This is particularly noticeable in the science field as they aggressively recruit Western-trained researchers, scientists and professors—including local scholars who were educated abroad—to help inject dynamism into their education sector, improving their prestige and with it, their bid to become a higher education hub.
【F2】
选项
答案来自其他地区的外国留学生加入到亚洲这个文化大熔炉，因此产生了极具多样性的学生群体。在这里，每一个学生都能接触到不同的观点、不同的思想学派，这有助于促进他们对群体差异性的理解和接纳。
解析 ①本句为复合句，包含一个时间状语从句和两个定语从句。②句首的When引导时间状语从句，句中使用了被动语态be added into。③主句主语this指代整个状语从句所述的内容；that引导定语从句修饰a wildly diverse student body，介绍这类学生群体的特点，其中that在句中既充当引导词又是该句主语，指代的是student body“学生群体”。谓语结构expose sb．to sth．，可理解为“使某人接触到某物”。④句子后部的which引导非限定性定语从句，其先行词是前面整个定语从句的内容。此从句表达“让学生接触到不同思想和流派”的作用。
