D

The Cost of Higher Education

Individuals (个人) should pay for their higher education.

A university education is of huge and direct benefit to the individual. Graduates earn more than non-graduates. Meanwhile, social mobility is ever more dependent on having a degree. However, only some people have it. So the individual, not the taxpayers, should pay for it. There are pressing calls on the resources (资源) of the government. Using taxpayers' money to help a small number of people to earn high incomes in the future is not one of them.

Full government funding (资助) is not very good for universities. Adam Smith worked in a Scottish university whose teachers lived off student fees. He knew and looked down upon 18th-century Oxford, where the academics lived comfortably off the income received from the government. Guaranteed salaries, Smith argued, were the enemy of hard work; and when the academics were lazy and incompetent, the students were similarly lazy.

If students have to pay for their education, they not only work harder, but also demand more from their teachers. And their teachers have to keep them satisfied. If that means taking teaching seriously, and giving less time to their own research interests, that is surely something to celebrate.

Many people believe that higher education should be free because it is good for the economy (经济). Many graduates clearly do contribute to national wealth, but so do all the businesses that invest (投资) and create jobs. If you believe that the government should pay for higher education because graduates are economically productive, you should also believe that the government should pay part of business costs. Anyone promising to create jobs should receive a gift of capital from the government to invest. Therefore, it is the individual, not the government, who should pay for their university education.

68. The underlined word "them" in Paragraph 2 refers to

A. taxpayers

B. pressing calls

C. college graduates

D. government resources

第2题：

When people in developing countries worry about migration, they are usually concerned at the prospect of their best and brightest departure to Silicon Valsey or to hospitals and universities in the developed world. These are the kind of workers that countries like Britain Canada and Australia try to attract by using immigration rules that privilege college graduates.

This "brain drain" has long bothered policymakers in poor counties .They fear that it hurts their economies, depriving them of much-needed skilled worker who could have taught at their universities, worked in their hospital and come up with clever new product for their factories to make


正确答案：
发展中国家的人们担心“移民”，通常是在关注他们前往硅谷或者发达国家的医院和大学后，自己最为美好的，光明的前景会是如何。这些移民是英国、加拿大和澳大利亚这样的国家，试图通过制定一些给予大学毕业生特权的移民政策，想要吸引的一类人群。
　　大量研究表明，发达国家中受过良好教育的人非常可能移民。2004年对于印度家庭的一项大型研究表明，接近40%的移民都接受过高中以上的教育，而年龄在25岁以上的印度人当中受过高中以上教育的人只有3.3%。这种“人才流失”长期以来困扰着贫穷国家的政策制定者，这些政策制定者担心移民会破坏他们国家的经济，流失许多急缺的技术人才，这些人才也许本应在他们的大学教书，在他们的医院工作，创造出新产品让本国的工厂来制造。

Julia, Gillard, as education minister and then prime minister~ identified the Gonski Report on school funding, later renamed the Better School Plan, as one of her crowning achievements. Backed by the Australian Education Union and Australia's cultural-left education blob (a term coined by Britain's Secretary of State for Education, Michael Gove), her argument is that Gonski will deliver excellence and equity in education by massively increasing government expenditure. The Gonski funding model, involving a base level of funding known as a School Resourcing Standard and additional loadings related to disadvantage, is also lauded as bring clarity, transparency and consistency to school funding. Not so. As noted by the National Comission of Audit, the flaws and weaknesses in the report are manifest.
Under the heading "Complexity of the funding model," section 9.7 Appendix Volmne 1, the statement is made that" new school funding arrangements are complex, inconsistent and lack transparency". Instead of having a national funding model, we have a situation where the states and territories and Catholic and independent school sectors have their own approaches to allocating finding to schools.
So much for the argument that the Gonski model represents an improvement on the Howard government's supposedly opaque and insistently applied socio-economic status (SES) mode. The Schooling Resource Standard is also criticized for not being "based on a detailed analysisof the cost of delivering education" and the formula employed for quantifying disadvantage for using faulty data leading to students "being misidentified as being inside or outside definitions of educationally disadvantaged".
Citing international research and an analysis carried out by the ALP federal .member forFraser, Andrew Leigh, when an academic at the Australian National University, the audit report oncludes there is little, if any, relationship between increased expenditure and raising standards.
Mirroring the argument put by Jennifer Buckingham in her School Funding on a Budget, the audit report argues "increasing funding does not necessarily equate to better student outcomes". common sense suggests, and contrary to the Australian Education Union's "I Give a campain, a more way to raise standards is to have a rigorous curriculum, effective and oommittcd teachers, strong parental engagement and schools, within broad guidelines, that hane the flexibility to manage themselves.
To applaud the commission of audit's analysis of school funding should not be taken asunqualified support. The suggestion that the states, and most likely their education departments, should control how funding to independent school is allocated is a mistake. Slate schools, on the whole, compete against non-government schools, and allowing state governments or their education bureaucracies to decide how funding is allocated to independent schools represents a conflict of interest.

第10题：

Passage 2
Teacher education provided by U．S． colleges and universities has been routinely criticized sinceits inception in the early nineteenth century, sometimes deservedly． These programs, likenon-university programs, are uneven in quality and can be improved． What makes today′ s criticismsdifferent is an aggressive effort by advocacy groups, and self-proclaimed educational entrepreneursto deregulate the preparation of teachers, and to expand independent, alternative routes intoteaching．
This effort to "disrupt" the field of teacher preparation in the United States has gainedconsiderable momentum and legitimacy, with venture capitalists, philanthropy, and the U．S．
Department of Education all providing sponsorship and substantial funding．
The strength of this effort is that the United States may quickly seek to dismantle its universitysystem and replace much of it with independent, private programs． The resulting system of teacherpreparation may differ dramatically in its government, structure, content, and processes movingaway from its current location alongside legal, medical, and other professional preparation that pairsacademic degrees with professional training．
Throughout the nation, states are reporting teacher shortages in particular subject areas andgeographical locations, and several states have either passed legislation to lower the standards forbecoming a teacher or, like the state of Washington, have looked toward expanding the number ofteacher education providers to try to fill teaching vacancies． The federal government has contributedto the push to lower standards for becoming a teacher with the Teacher Preparation Academy
provision in the new K-12 education law, the Every Student Succeeds Act, which encourages statesto expand the number of independent programs not associated with colleges and universities．
Because of the increasing tuition rates, a consequence in part, of cuts in funding to publicuniversities that continue to educate most U．S． teachers, enrollments in college and universityteacher education programs have declined in many parts of the country． Independent teachereducation programs are being viewed by some as an important part of the solution in staffing thenation′s classrooms and addressing our serious and enduring problems in education inequities．
Additionally, advocacy groups, philanthropists, and so-called education entrepreneurs are workingaggressively to expand these independent alternative routes into teaching．
Given the seriousness of the teacher shortage problem in the United States and the substantialmedia attention that has been given to independent teacher education programs as the solution toteacher shortages and education inequities, policy makers should very carefully examine theevidence that exists about the nature and impact of these relatively new programs that are rapidlyexpanding while university teacher education enrollments decline．
What measures have been taken by some states to deal with their teacher shortages


A.To increase the number of qualified teachers．

B.To increase funds for teacher education programs．

C.To expand non-university teacher education programs．

D.To establish the baseline of teacher education programs．

答案：C
解析：
细节题。根据第四段中的“several stateshave eitherpassedlegislationtolowerthe standardsforbecoming ateacher”可知，几个州为了应付教师短缺局面通过了降低教师标准的立法，A项“增加合格教师的数量”与原文不符。根据第五段中的“Because ofthe increasing tuition rates，a consequence in part，ofcuts infunding to public universities that continHe to educate most U．S．teachers，enrollments in college and universityteacher education programs have declined in many parts of the country”可知．由于学费的增加，对高等师范教育的资金投入缩减了，B项“提高对师范教育项目的资金投入”与原文不符。根据第四段末尾“…encourages smtes toexpand the number of independent programs not associated with colleges and universities．”及第五段中的“Independent teacher education programs are being viewed by some as an important part of the solution in staffing thenation’s classrooms”可知．一些州发展私立师范教育项目，C项“发展非高等师范教育项目”正确。D项“为师范教育项目设立底线”．文中未提及。故选C。
