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
【C3】
选项
A、European
B、overseas
C、domestic
D、top
答案
B
解析
从down from 312,000 two years earlier(两年前该数字为312,000)推断,本句仍继续讨论上句所说的外国学生到英格兰大学就读日益下降,此处所讨论的学生仍是外国学生。B项overseas有“海外的,国外的”之意,语义符合。A项European意为“欧洲的”,下一句讨论的也是student numbers from the rest of the EU。如果此处也讨论欧洲来的学生,在内容上就会构成重复;且从本段最后一句中的from India and Pakistan(来自印度和巴基斯坦)得知,来英国求学的学生不只来自欧洲。C项domestic意为“国内的”。但此处讨论的是外国学生。D项top意为“头等的”,没有证据表明此处讨论的是尖子生的人数。
