19、hip to a private school. Its only a small discount, but the scholarship means shell skip the waiting list - provided my husband and I can cover $20,000 a year. Should we pay the private school fees, or choose free education instead?I always assumed my children would go to a private school, like I di

20、d. Not because my family is wealthy, but because I believe that the best education is private. It took years for me to make peace with the fact that my two children attended our local public primary school. Theyll go to a private high school, I told myself. Yet here we are. My eldest is now in her l

21、ast year of primary school, and my husband and I will struggle to afford private school. If so, I could increase my work hours. My law degree was supposed to be my ticket to a good job and a solid income, but thats not quite how it turned out.The guilt and expectations are mine alone.Im terrified th

22、at my daughters potential will be wasted at the public school.

Rather than school education, family influences a person most.CImagine, one day, getting out of bed in Beijing and being at your office in Shanghai in only a cou

29、ple of hours, and then, after a full day of work, going back home to Beijing and having dinner there. Sounds unusual, doesnt it? But its not that unrealistic, with the development of Chinas high-speed railway system. And thats not all. China has an even greater high-speed railway plan to connect the

30、 country with Southeast Asia, and eventually Eastern Europe. China is negotiating to extend its own high-speed railway network to up to 17 countries in 10 to 15 years, eventually reaching London and Singapore. China has proposed three such projects. The first would possibly connect Kunming with Sing

31、apore via Vietnam and Malaysia. Another could start in Urumqi and go through Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and possibly to Germany. The third would start in the northeast and go north through Russia and then into Western Europe.If Chinas plan for the high-speed railway goes forward, people could zip ov

32、er from London to Beijing in under two days. The new system would still follow Chinas high-speed railway standard. And the trains would be able to go 346 kilometers an hour, almost as fast as some airplanes. Chinas high-speed train, the one connecting Wuhan to Guangzhou, already has the Worlds faste

33、st average speed. It covers 1,069 kilometers in about three hours. Of course, there are some technical challenges to overcome. There are so many issues that need to be settled, such as safety, rail gauge(轨距), maintenance of railway tracks. So, its important to pay attention to every detail. But the

34、key issue is really money. China is already spending hundreds of billions of Yuan on domestic railway expansion. 6China prefers that the other countries pay in natural resources rather than with capital investment. Resources from those countries could stream into China to sustain development. Itll b

35、e a win-win project. For other countries, the railway network will definitely create more opportunities for business, tourism and so on, not to mention the better communication among those countries. For China, such a project would not only connect it with the rest of Asia and bring some much-needed

36、 resources, but would also help develop Chinas far west. We foresee that in the coming decades, millions of people will migrate to the western regions, where the land is empty and resources unused. With high-speed trains, people will set up factories and business centers in the west once and for all

37、. And theyll trade with Central Asian and Eastern European countries. 28. Chinas new high-speed railway plan will be a win-win project because _. A. China will get much-needed resources and develop its western regionsB. China and the countries involved will benefit from the project in various waysC.

40、y Dreams B. New Railway StandardsC. High-speed Bullet Trains D.

41、here he fell in love not only with the romantic poetry of English poets like John Keats, but also with Cambridge itself.His poem, commonly translated as Second Farewell to Cambridge, is arguably his most famous poem, and is now a compulsory text on Chinese literature, learnt by millions of school ch

42、ildren across the country every year. The poem paints an idyllic portrait of Kings and the River Cam, and serves as a reminder of Xu Zhimos fondness for his time in Cambridge.While the poem has been set to music many times before, Kings has commissioned（委派）the first musical setting of the text to a

43、mainstream classical composer. The new piece, by renowned English composer John Rutter, has been written and recorded in celebration of the near 100-year link between Kings College and Xu Zhimo, and has been released on 26 January 2018 on a new album of the Kings College Record Label.7“Many intellec

44、tual transformations happened for him while he was here and in some ways the whole seed of his development as a person who became an intellectual poet, through the medium of poetry, all sort of connected up with his visit to Cambridge and the people he met.“ noted Steve Cherry, the associate dean of

45、 Kings college.“John Rutter is a very resourceful composer, and I was delighted with the way he imagined doing this, presenting most of the text through the singer for which we engage the Chinese singer.“ Stephen Cleobury, the current chief conductor, said,“Well, I wanted to have a go myself at maki

46、ng an arrangement of it which would express something of what we do at Kings College.“The inspiration I think came from the poem which is on the tablet by the bridge here in the college. Apart from the tourist self and the words, which of course are quite big elements in it, its not specifically int

47、ended to be a Chinese piece. Its the sort of arrangement I would make for something like that, and its a very beautiful melody.“32. What is the purpose of writing Second Farewell to Cambridge?A.
