Britain’s private schools are one of its most successful exports. The children of the wealthy【C1】________to them, whether from China, Nigeria or Russia: the number of foreign pupils rose by 1.4% in the last year alone.
【C2】________foreign students, whether educated in British private schools or elsewhere, are decreasingly likely to go to English universities. According to the Higher Education Funding Council for England, 307,200【C3】________students began their studies in the country in 2012-13, down from 312,000 two years earlier and the first【C4】________in 29 years. Student numbers from the rest of the EU fell—【C5】________a result of the increase in annual tuition【C6】________in England from £6,000 a year to £9,000. But【C7】________from India and Pakistan declined most sharply.
【C8】________the visa regime for private schools, which is extremely【C9】________(the Home Office counts private schools as favored sponsors), student visas have been tightened. Foreign students used to be allowed to work for up to two years after graduating. They now have only four months to find a job paying upwards of £20,600 if they want to stay in Britain.
This change was【C10】________to deal with sham colleges that were【C11】________offering two-year work visas. But it seems to have put【C12】________serious students too. Nick Hillman of the Higher Education Policy Institute says the government has sent unclear messages about the sort of immigration it wants to【C13】________. An emphasis on holding down net immigration discourages young Indians and Pakistanis in particular. Australia and America, which have more【C14】________entry criteria for students, are becoming more favored【C15】________. Colin Riordan, Cardiff University’s vice-chancellor, adds that Britain’s student-visa regime has become more burdensome and complicated【C16】________.
As a result, Britain is losing out to other countries in the【C17】________for talent—an odd thing,【C18】________ how often the prime minister bangs on about the "global race". Its unwelcoming stand will【C19】________its long-term prospects. And the【C20】________of foreign students from leading British private schools to American colleges may have another, somewhat happier, consequence: America might become rather better at cricket.
【C7】
选项
A、tourists
B、employees
C、arrivals
D、pupils
答案
C
解析
上句提到来自欧盟其他国家的学生数量也有所减少,从本句中的declined most sharply (下降最明显)推断,此处仍是与来自海外的学生有关。C项arrivals有“到来者”之意,语义符合。A项tourists和B项employees分别表示“游客”和“员工”,此处讨论的是去英国求学的学生,这两项均与主题无关。D项pupils意为“学生”,但主要指小学生,从第二段第一句中提到的English universities推断,文章主要讨论的是大学生。
