Higher education in America is no longer the preserve of a privileged elite, with more than seven million undergraduates now enrolled in the roughly

15、 2,600 colleges and universities that grant bachelor or higher degrees. In 2002, the most recent year for which figures are available, 1,291,900 students received bachelors diplomas and 606,958 completed graduate programs. The latter figure is worth noting, since it tells us that almost half of thos

16、e who are completing college believe that a single degree wont suffice for what they want to do or be. A census study last year found that among adults aged thirty to thirty-four, only 41 percent had attended high school without going to college. These high school graduates, moreover, represent a dw

17、indling part of the population. Another 32 percent had earned at least a bachelors degree, while 27 percent had spent time on a campus, whether a community college or a four-year college, without finishing. Viewed one way, that figure shows a high attrition rate. The claim that almost six in ten Ame

18、ricans in their early thirties have had some kind of college experience thus needs further scrutiny. The experience can range from small seminars in philosophy at Colgate to lectures in motel management at Southwest Missouri State. Some colleges have rigorous core curriculums: students elsewhere mus

In fact, there are places open for anyone who wants to pursue a bachel

20、ors degree and can pay for it, and many colleges must work hard to attract students. In a study published this year, James Fallows concluded that for all but the richest ten or twenty universities, an important part of managing enrollment is simply being sure that enough paying customer will show up

21、 each fall. The Princeton Review, a commercial organization with no ties to the university, compiles useful information about what it calls the best 257 colleges in the country. It reports that reputable although less well known schools like Creighton, Duquesne, and Evergreen State accept at least 8

22、5 percent of those who apply. But for many American families, knowing that there are many openings is not reassuring. On the contrary, increasing numbers of parents are investing money and energy to ensure that their children be accepted by a college that is recognized and admired. Ross Doughat writ

23、es candidly about these efforts in his memoir of student life in Harvards class of 2002, Privilege: Harvard and the Education of the Ruling Class. People send their children to Harvard, above all, he says, because they want them to succeed. And an early sign of their success will be the college they

24、 attend. When friends ask where the children are going. Parents want to give a response that brings congratulatory smiles; yet the number of schools that evoke this reaction is relatively small. True, people may recall having heard, say, of Carleton and Grinnell; but they dont see them as being amon

25、g the first tier. As Doughat writes, ambitious parents dont want to be seen as having children whose attainment was less than the best. Regional loyalties are being replaced by the growing power of a handful of national name brands. A neurologist in Tulsa who himself went to Oklahoma State now wants

30、e to escape recession, highlighting diverging fortunes across the region but also the countrys scope for lifting the prospects of weaker rivals. German gross domestic product expanded 0.5 percent in the first quarter of the year compared with the previous three months, a much stronger pace of growth

31、 than economists had forecast. As a result, eurozone GDP remained flatrather than contracting as had been widely expecteddespite further falls across much of southern Europe and stagnation in France, the eurozones second-largest economy. Although the eurozone debt crisis could yet deliver an economi

32、c shock, Germany has emerged from the crises of the past few years as one of the worlds best-performing advanced industrial economies. Unemployment is near record lows since reunification in 1990, while business confidence remains high. GDP in Europes largest economy had contracted 0.2 percent in th

33、e final three months of last year, which largely explained a 0.3 percent fall in eurozone GDP, and raised fears of a technical recession, defined as two quarters of negative growth. But German weakness was only temporary. Eurozone divergences have complicated the task of the European Central Bank. A

34、lthough interest rates are widely seen as too low for Germany, the rest of the bloc is not yet ready for any policy tightening. Jens Weidmann, Bundesbank president, is prepared to tolerate a German inflation rate above the eurozone averagebut Germans deep-seated worries about inflation trends limit

35、the ECBs room for maneuver. German politicians, meanwhile, have come under international pressure to use fiscal policy to boost domestic consumer spending as way of further stimulating demand for imports. Some signs of a eurozone rebalancing have already emerged, however. The main driver of German g

36、rowth in the first quarter was exports, according to the countrys statistical office. That reflected German success in selling top of the range manufactured goods and services outside the eurozoneespecially to China and Russia. But German domestic demand also picked up in the first quarter, which wo

37、uld have sucked in exports from other parts of eurozone and beyond. Germany is the most important export market for most European economies. Italys exports to Germany in the first quarter were almost 11 percent higher than a year before, while Spanish exports were up more than 4 percent. People thin

38、k that German private consumption has to increase very strongly for Germany to act as a growth motor for the eurozone, said Andreas Rees, European economist at UniCredit in Munich. But if you look at trade in the eurozone, consumer goods do not play a decisive role. It is capital and intermediate go

The latest data are unlikely to dispel worries about the effect of the regions re-escalating debt crisis or the ramifications of a possible Greek ex

44、.Hopeless.D.Not mentioned.答案:C Britains hospital doctors want the coalitions controversial NHS shakeup to be scrapped, with many fearing it will lead to health services being privatised, a poll has revealed. Almost 7 in 10 members of the Royal College of Physicians (RCP), which represents hospital d

45、octors, want the health and social care bill withdrawn. The findings of the RCPs poll of its members views on the bill are another blow to ministers efforts to convince doctors their plans are right, and are a significant addition to the medical communitys almost unanimous opposition to it. The RCP

46、polled its 25,417 fellows and members. Of those, 8,878 responded (35%). The survey followed the colleges recent extraordinary general meeting to decide its stance on the bill, after some members said it was not being robust enough in its opposition. When asked for their personal views of the bill, 6

47、9% (6,092) said they rejected it as it stood; only 6% (525) accepted it; 22% (1,971) said they neither completely accept nor completely reject it; and the other 3% (290) did not offer an opinion. Of the 8,878 responders, 49% (4,386) said they wanted the RCP to seek withdrawal of the bill, while slig

48、htly fewer-46% (4,099)said it should continue to engage critically on further improving the bill. The other 4% (393) did not offer a view either way. A third question, asking RCP fellows and members what their main concerns were related to the bill and the wider health agenda, showed that large numb

49、ers of hospital doctors fear it will have a negative impact. Concern about possible privatisation of the NHS, and the planned extension of competition between healthcare providers and choice for patients, loomed large, though many are also worried about the effect of handing control of 60bn of patie

50、nt treatment budgets from April 2013 to local groups of GPs called clinical commissioning groups (CCGs). CCGs will exercise considerable power, including over the commissioning of services for patients from hospitals. The RCP members top concerns about the bill were: 1. Training, education and resea

51、rch (5,550 put in their top five concerns) 2. Use of the private sector (5,414) 3. Commissioning by clinical commissioning groups (4,905) 4. Choice and competition (4,866) 5. Proposed structural change (introducing the new NHS national commissioning board, CCGs, etc) (4,687) 6. Role of secretary of

52、state (3,216) The poll also found widespread unease about issues already facing the NHS at the frontline, including the quality of patient care, budget cuts, staff shortages and patients not getting continuous care. We believe that this is the single biggest survey among the medical royal colleges,

53、with the highest turnout, and while it shows there is a clear majority of the RCPs fellows and members who would personally reject the bill, opinion is divided almost equally on whether the RCP should continue to critically engage or now call for the withdrawal of the bill, said Sir Richard Thompson

54、, the RCPs president. The areas of most concern to RCP fellows and members are the areas on which we have been strongly lobbying government, MPs, peers and other stakeholders: training, education and research; use of the private sector; commissioning by clinical commissioning groups; and choice and

55、competition, he added. The Department of Health played down the importance of the poll, pointing out that the doctors wanting the bill scrapped represented just 17% of the RCPs membership. While it is disappointing that some members of the Royal College of Physicians have voted to reject the bill, i

56、t is worth noting that only a third of the colleges 25,000 members voted in this process, and under half of those members have asked for it to be withdrawn, said Lord Howe, the health minister in the House of Lords. We have already strengthened the health bill following the listening exercise and ha

57、ve responded directly to the points raised by the Royal College of Physicians, including making clear that competition would only be used to benefit patients, never as an end in itself. We welcome the fact that thousands of doctors have called on their college to continue to engage with the government on its plans for improving the health servi
