BEIJING—Seven prestigious universities in China announced Sunday that they would begin using the same independent exam —besides the national one —to test students hoping to gain entrance to them in 2011.
The seven are Peking University, Beihang University, Beijing Normal University, Nankai University, Fudan University, Xiamen University and Hong Kong University.
Students who want to gain entrance to any of the seven universities will only have to sit one independent exam, according to the joint announcement.
“This will help lighten the students’ load, otherwise they must take several exams for different universities ,”said the announcement.
Passing the exam could result in more than one interview chance, giving the students more opportunities to choose their favorite universities.
China’ s college entrance exam system is undergoing reform as universities aim to select students based on independent criteria rather than just using the results of the national exam.
In 2003, Peking University and another 21 universities were allowed to pilot (试用) the reform by using their own criteria to independently select five percent of their students.
Now nearly 80 universities across the country have the right to select talented students based on their own exams.
Education experts regard universities selecting students according to independent examinations as conducive (有助的) to better understanding where the students’ talents lie.
Although this may be the case, it has also created problems as students may sit many different exams as they often apply for a number of universities.
To relieve students from such pressures, the national education outline (2010—2020) released in July this year encourages high-level universities to group together to use the same exams.
56. If students want to be admitted to the seven prestigious universities, they can______.
A. only pass the interview.
B. only take the national exam.
C. only take the independent exam.
D. either take the national exam or take the independent exam.
57. What’s the purpose of students sitting one independent exam to gain entrance to the seven universities?
A. It can reduce students’ load to take several exams.
B. The universities will have the same standard to test students.
C. There will be less trouble marking students’ test papers.
D. It can avoid fierce competition among these universities.
58. If students pass the independent exam, they will ______.
A. take the national exam.
B. have one or more interview chances.
C. be admitted to one of the universities.
D. he trained to be adapted to universities life and studies.
59. What is the advantage of universities selecting students according to independent examinations?
A. Students needn’t take the national exam.
B. Students ’education cost can be lowered.
C. Students’ abilities and talents can be better found.
D. It can encourage middle schools to recommend more qualified students.

For nearly 100 years, the heartbroken Little Mermaid has sat on a rock looking out over Copenhagen's port but now the sculpture ,based on the famous fairytale, is heading back out to sea, set for China.
The small bronze statue inspired by the tale of author Hans Christian Andersen and unveiled in 1913, is a major tourist attraction in Copenhagen. But her life has not always been easy. She has been beheaded twice, had her arm cut off, was blown off her rock in 2003 and was dressed in a Muslim headscarf two years ago in a protest - but she never left her native country.
This week she was lifted from the harbor, boxed, and shipped to Shanghai where she is the star guest in the Danish Pavilion at EXPO 2010 which runs until October 31. Details over her trip were not revealed due to security issues.
"The Little Mermaid," published in 1837, is a sad story about a mermaid who falls in love with a prince and gives up her life in the sea and her tail for legs.
The fairytale has been adapted many times into stage shows and into a Disney movie.
Copenhagen mayor Frank Jensen said in a statement that the loan of The Little Mermaid was part of a cultural exchange between Denmark and China. "I am convinced that she will be an excellent ambassador of Denmark, particularly since the Chinese already are very fond of Hans Christian Andersen and his fairytales," he said in a statement.
Her departure from Copenhagen will not leave the harbor empty. Chinese artist Ai Weiwei has created a video installation(设备/装置)to be installed at her spot.
The Little Mermaid's 165 cm (65 inches) tall sculpture, which sits on a granite block, was created in 1913 by Edvard Eriksen.
60. The following statements are true EXCEPT________________.
A. the statue of The Little Mermaid will be given to China as a gift
B. the statue of The Little Mermaid is a major tourist attraction in Copenhagen
C. The Little Mermaid is a famous fairytale written by Hans Christian Andersen
D. the story of The Little Mermaid was once adapted into a Disney movie
61.The underlined word “departure” here means_______________.
A. escaping B.retiring C. arriving D. leaving
62. From the passage, we can infer that ________________.
A. Chinese artist Ai Weiwei has created another Little Mermaid instead
B. the Danish people don’t like the statue of The Little Mermaid
C. the statue of The Little Mermaid will return to Denmark in the future
D. Edvard Eriksen wrote the story of the Little Mermaid
