　　BEIJING, Dec．14(Xinhua)-Education experts and lawmakers have called on the government to give more financial support for the country's school bus development in order to make it safer．

　　China issued a set of technical standards for school buses for primary school students last year, and the drafting of another standard for buses for kindergartners is also under way．

　　However, the newspaper said these standards are only binding for the school bus manufacturers-not for school bus service operators, and many schools buy or rent ordinary vehicles, or even farm vehicles, to transport students．

　　Higher costs to run and maintain the specially-designed school buses may be one of the reasons for the problem, the article said．

　　According to the report, the average price of a qualified school bus is 100,000 to 200,000 yuan(15,760 to 31,520 U．S．dollars)higher than other similar coaches, and long idle times while students are at school or on vacation also adds to the operation costs．

　　The student-transportation problem comes into view large in the country's rural areas, as over the past 10 years, primary schools in these areas were almost halved amid the country's efforts to improve education quality and efficiency, forcing many students to travel much farther for school．

　　Moreover, schools in rural areas suffer more financial difficulties in providing qualified school bus services, said Ma Pingchang, a National People's Congress deputy in Shandong province．

　　China published a draft regulation on school bus safety management on Sunday guaranteeing that central and local governments will provide financial support for school bus service development．

　　However, Yang Dongping, a professor of education with the Beijing Institute of Technology, said the regulation is not specific enough to answer the question of "who should pay for the school bus services．"

　　Although it is unrealistic for public spending to cover all the expenses, the government should not avoid its responsibility, Yang said．

　　"When it comes to the matter of education and school bus safety, costs should not be put at the top of the list," said Ye Qing, another national lawmaker in Hubei province．

　　Ye and Wang Xuming, a former Education Ministry spokesman, also suggested the slashing public spending on government cars to fund the school bus services．

　　The State Administration of Work Safety, China's safety watchdog, on Tuesday called on local governments to take immediate action to make school buses safer．

(1)

From the text we learn that ________．

[　　]

A．

China hasn't issued any technical standard for school buses for primary school students

B．

China has issued another new formal standard for buses for the kindergartners

C．

It costs more to run and maintain the specially-designed school buses

B．

The school buses often idle a long time when students are at school or on vacation

C．

Schools in rural areas lack financial support

(3)

[　　]

B．

Ye Qing thinks compared with education and school bus safety, costs are less important．

C．

D．

Now in his senior year in Bowdoin College, a small, elite liberal-arts（文科）college in Masine, Chen Yongfang has become such a devotee of the liberal-arts approach that he’s made it his mission to spread the word throughout China. He has coauthored a book called A True Liberal Arts Education, which essentially explains the little-known concept to Chinese students and their parents. Though there have been many books about how to get into Ivy League universities, “there was not a single book in China about the smaller liberal-arts colleges,” he says.
The book, which Chen wrote with friends Ye Lin and Wan Li, who also attend small U. S. colleges, touts（兜售）such benefits as intimate classes (the student-to-faculty ratio at Bowdoin is 9:1) and professors who focus on teaching rather than research. Chen, 23, explains that he was won over by Bowdoin’s commitment to nurturing skills for life, rather than simply for the workplace. “Liberal arts is abut fostering your identity,” he says. “They want to cultivate your mind.” He admits that liberal arts may be a hard sell in a country with an increasingly competitive job market. The book states bluntly that in the short term, a liberal-arts education won’t improve job prospects. “In China, employers are looking for someone who can come in and start working immediately when they graduate, not someone who still needs to be trained in practical skills,” Chen says.
The book, which received wide media coverage in China and now has a waiting list for its second print run, is certainly timely: it plays into a growing debate in China about what national universities should be teaching. The country needs a workforce with the skills and creativity to help move away from low-cost manufacturing and, in economic terms, move up the value chain. And some educators believe liberal-arts training is vital to help China deal with its increasingly complex new realities. Yet the well-known intellectual historian Xu Jilin believes that China’s rapid expansion of higher education has had a detrimental effect on curriculum as the country’s universities race to compete globally. “Education these days in like factory-farming chickens,” he says. “Universities all wan to get into international rakings—and most of these depend on research. They’re not interested in providing a unique education for our kids.”
1．According to Chen Yongfang, the benefits of attending liberal-arts colleges are the following EXCEPT        .
A．closer relationship with tutors
B．teachers more devoted to teaching
C．practical skills for getting a job in China
D．development in mind and life-long ability
2．It can be inferred from the passage that        .
A．the teaching quality in big research universities not as good as small colleges
B．it is more difficult for liberal-arts graduates to find a job because employers don’t believe that they can perform well
C．literal-arts education is of little help to China’s economic development
D．research universities received more Chinese applicants than smaller liberal-arts colleges
3．The word “detrimental” in Para.3 probably means “_________.”
A．instant      B．rewarding C．damaging  D．obvious
4．According to Xu Jilin,___________.
A．the expansion of higher education has improved the competitive strength of China’s universities
B．Chinese universities are providing the same courses as foreign universities
