Australia has passed regulations that will enable more international students to further their education in the country.
The new measures were released by the Australian Department of Tertiary Education, Skills, Jobs and Workplace Relations in September and will take effect in mid-2012.
As a result, the student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified, and the deposit (押金) required to study in Australia has been reduced. Language requirements for overseas students have also been eased.
Also, overseas students receiving a higher education in Australia will be granted a working visa lasting from two to four years after graduation, as long as they meet the basic IELTS requirement.
"This change will definitely make Australia a more attractive destination for Chinese students planning to study overseas," says Wang Lan , a consultant from Education International Cooperation Group (EIC), a Beijing-based company that provides services to students wishing to study overseas.
However, in the past few years, many of Wang"s student clients (客户) could not start studies in Australia because they did not meet the language requirements, visa processing took a long time and deposit regulations were tough. The change in policy is good news for the parents of students wishing to study in Australia, Wang says.
A 22-year-old female student surnamed Li, in Beijing, who is planning to do her  postgraduate studies in Australia, learned about the policy change several weeks ago.
"According to the previous deposit requirement for my student visa, my family was required to put down 550,000 Yuan ($86,850). Now we only need to prepare 410,000 Yuan. This is a relief for my parents," Li says.
She also says that the two to four years working visa makes her feel much clearer about her study plans.
"I believe several years of working experience abroad will strengthen my competitiveness when I return to China," she says.
Gaining a competitive advantage is the major reason for Chinese students to study abroad, according to the report by EIC.
小题1:What"s the main idea of the passage? 
A.Language requirement for overseas students have been eased in Australia.
B.Australia is a most attractive place for students in China.
C.Australia widens window of opportunity for international students.
D.More students will work in Australia after their graduation.
小题2:Which of the following is NOT the content of the new regulations? 
A.The student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified.
B.The deposit required to study in Australia has been reduced.
C.Language requirements for overseas students have been more difficult.
D.After graduation, some overseas students can get a working visa in Australia.
小题3:After the new regulations are passed, _______ . 
A.more students will come to Australia to work
B.more Chinese students will choose to live in Australia.
C.the opportunities to work in Australia decrease for overseas students
D.more Chinese students will choose to further their education in Australia
小题4:How much can Li"s parents save according to the new regulations? 
A.550,000 yuanB.140,000 yuan
C.410,000 yuanD.86,850 yuan
小题5:Why do many students want to work in Australia after their graduation? 
A.The working experience abroad will strengthen their competitiveness.
B.They can earn more money in Australia.
C.Their working experience can make them stay in Australia forever.
D.They have to do so according to the new regulations.

Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. “I was a clothes addict,” jokes. “I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled.” Today David wears casual clothes---khaki pants and sports shirt---to the office. He hardly ever wears necktie. “I’m working harder than ever,” David says, “and I need to feel comfortable.”
More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work in the United States. The change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday (but only on Friday). This became known as “dress-down Friday” or “casual Friday.” “What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really become an everyday thing,” said business consultant Maisly Jones.
Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it’s easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. “A lot of young people don’t want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so it’s hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code.” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale. Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative impact on productive. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. “Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said. “For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.”
小题1:David Smith refers to himself as having been “a clothes addict” because_______.
A.he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirt
B.he couldn’t stand a clean appearance
C.he wanted his clothes to look neat all the time
D.he didn’t want to spend much money on clothes
小题2:David Smith wears casual clothes now, because________
A.they make him feel at ease when working
B.he cannot afford to buy expensive clothes
C.he looks handsome in casual clothes
D.he no longer works for any company
小题3:According to this passage, which of the following statements is FALSE?
A.Many employees don’t like a conservative dress code.
B.Comfortable clothes make employees more productive
C.A casual clothes code is welcomed by young employees
D.All the employers in the U.S are for casual office wear.
小题4:In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned EXCEPT_______.
A.saving employees’ money
B.making employees more attractive
C.improving employees’ motivation
D.making employees happier

What did I gain?” I thought and thought, but I could not think of anything to say.  32 , he answered his own question: “I 33 the love of my family.” I looked at my sisters and saw tears in their eyes,along with hope and thankfulness.
I was also  34 by his words. After that, when I began to feel irritated(恼怒的)at someone, I  35 remember his words and become 36 . If he could replace his great pain with a feeling of love for others, then I should be  37 to give up my small irritations. In this  38  ,I learned the power of acceptance from my father.
Sometimes I 39 what other things I could have learned from him if I had listened more carefully when I was a boy. For now, though, I am grateful for this one 40 .

Anne and Joseph are talking about an interesting question. Why do some people change their names? There can be many reasons. Hanna changed her name to Anne because she thought it would be easier for people to remember. On the other hand, Joseph is thinking about changing his name to an unusual name because he wants to be different.
People have a lot of reasons for changing their names. Film stars, singers, sportsmen and some other famous people often change their names because they want names that are not ordinary, or that have special sound. They chose the “new name” for themselves instead of the name their parents gave them when they were born.
Some people have another reason for changing their names. They have moved to a new country and want to use a name that is usual there. For example, Li Kaiming changed his name to Ken Lee when he moved to the United States. He uses the name Ken at his job and at school. But with his family and Chinese friends, he uses Li Kaiming. For some people, using different names makes life easier in their new country.
In many countries, a woman changes her family name to her husband’s after she gets married. But today, many women are keeping their own family name and not using their husband’s. Sometimes, women use their own name in some situations(情况)and their husband’s in other situations. And some use both their own name and their husband’s.
