[A] The relatively low tuition fees in Asia are also a main draw for prospective students. Last year, online higher education resource Hotcourses Abroad found that maximum tuition fees in the UK and US could exceed $27,000, more than double that incurred in Malaysia and Singapore. The living costs of the respective cities were also taken into account and followed the same trend; Malaysia scored best here with the average monthly rent hovering around $115 and transport costs potentially as low as $20.
[B] Not content with attracting individual talent, many Asian countries are even inviting Western institutions to set up international branch campuses on their land. This is seen as a winning solution for all parties: the universities can expand their global outreach, the countries can prevent the "brain drain" phenomenon and the students gain access to prestigious yet more affordable education. In many cases, this also translates to an enhanced link with industries as the programs can be tailored to cater for their needs, supplying a skilled local workforce that meets industry requirements.
[C] The fast-developing Asian higher education sector, in particular, is uniquely placed to offer a global experience. Diversity is one of the strong selling points here as the continent of Asia comprises 48 countries, all with distinct cultures and traditions. When foreign students from other regions are added into the mix, this results in a wildly diverse student body that exposes individuals to different opinions and schools of thought, which helps to promote greater understanding and acceptance overall.
[D] However, cheaper fares do not translate to a lower quality of education in Asia. Singaporean institutions occupy 12th and 13th spot in the QS World University Rankings this year, while China, Japan and Korea have entries in the top 50. Given that many Asian universities are fairly new, this suggests that a significant, accelerated effort is being made through government investment and policymaking to bring the institutions to an internationally competitive level—and it is paying off.
[E] This courting of foreign talent extends to the teaching staff as well. A "global competition for talent" is emerging between Asian countries when it comes to institutions of higher learning. This is particularly noticeable in the science field as they aggressively recruit Western-trained researchers, scientists and professors—including local scholars who were educated abroad—to help inject dynamism into their education sector, improving their prestige and with it, their bid to become a higher education hub.
[F] In fact, besides affordable living and tuition expenses, Asian countries are sweetening the deal for eastbound foreign students by offering a variety of funding opportunities such as scholarships, as well as value-for-money exchange programs—some of which even provide a monthly allowance. (However, minimum grade requirements may apply.) Times Higher Education reported that in the last year, 40% of all international students new to the largest country in Asia received government sponsorship.
[G] Technology has helped spur the globalization of the world and with it, building a safe, fair, thriving planet is the responsibility of all. In April, a BBC World Service poll of over 20,000 people in 18 countries found that over half of the respondents from emerging economies identified themselves as global rather than national citizens. Thus, it is important that new generations have access to education that emphasizes this global-centric outlook to promote a more interconnected international community.
【D16】 → c → 【D17】 → 【D18】 → F → 【D19】 → 【D20】
【D16】
选项
答案
G
解析
本题可用排除法。首先,C和F的位置已经给出,不用考虑。A的首句有also,D首句有转折词How-ever,E首句有as well,它们都不可能是开篇段落,故范围缩小至B和G。B首句含表递进的even,结合句首的状语Not content with attracting individual talent,可知前文应该会讲述亚洲国家吸引个体人才,因此B不会是文章首段。G先由全球化发展的背景入手,再借着介绍一项民意调查,指出很多亚洲国家的人们已具有全球化意识,由此引出“教育领域也需参与到全球化的进程当中”这一主题。G符合文章段首的行文特点,故为答案。
