The clock tower looks out over a 3 8一hectare campus graced by an ornamental lake and a pillaredcentral hall.Add a little ivy and it could be almost any respected seat of learning in the West.Onlythe hemisphere is wrong.This is Ningbo campus of Nottingham University in China Zhejiang proy’ince half a worid away from its British home Teaching is in English,the first language of the staff.Last vear the college,a joint venture with a Chinese enterprise,opened its doors to 900 local students looking for an international education without leaving home Within five years their numbers are forec:ast to reach 4000.Say Nottingham University provost Ina Gow:“Why go all the way to Britain when you can study in China at half the price?”
Good question. International education is now a global industry worth $30 billion a year,with sort 2 million students studying abroad a figure that’s forecast to treble by 2020.In particular,the surging economies of India and China are producing far more would—be graduates than their own col1eges can accommodate But preferences are changing fast as thrifty students give up their traditional favorites in the West and choose to stay closer to home That means a change in strategy for recruit hungry colleges and governments.Says Andreas Schleicher,an education expert at the Organization for Economic cooperation and Development. “The real international dimension is that we no longer move students around the world:we move the providers and contents instead”
It doesn’t take a Ph.Dto spot the trends.The United States still attracts more than a quarter of a11overseas students.but its market share is slipping.Britain,in the second slot,saw the number of applicants from China dip by 20 percent last year.Factors include expense and tighter entry regulation. The United States last year relaxed some of its controls but not before losing some of the richstudent business flrom the Middle East.British universities are complaining loudly at the government’s decision to double the price of a student visa
The big beneficiaries are back in the East,close to home for Indian and Chinese students.With generous state help.Australian colleges now attract 9 percent of overseas students,after a decade of double—digit increases.Australians’goal:560,000 foreign students almost three times today’s figure—bv 2025,with Asians accounting for some 70 percent of the total.What’s good for the colleges is also good for the national accounts.International education now ranks as Australia’s fourth largest source of export dollars after coal tourism and iron ore
Students choose to stay closer to home mainly because of_________.
选项
A、their fear of homesickness
B、the surging economy of their home country
C、the changing pattern of world education
D、their personal economic reason
答案
D
解析
推理判断题。由题干中的stay closer to home定位至第二段第四句“But preferences are changing fast as thrifty students give up their traditional favorites in the West and choose to stay closer to home”由句中的thrifty(节俭的,节省的)可推断出,他们这样做是出于经济上的考虑,故D为答案;A在文中没有提及,排除;由第二句中“the surging econo mies of India and China are producing far more would be graduates”可知,经济的发展造成了毕业生过多,这与选择在国内读书无关,排除B;C在文中没有提到,故排除。
