     TAIBEI-Increasing numbers of Taiwanese students are joining the island's "China rush", seeking
education on the Chinese mainland.
     According to official Chinese figures, the number of Taiwanese students admitted into college and
postgraduate programmes on the mainland totaled 461 in 1996, 928 in 1997 and 839 in 1998. Although
no latest official numbers were available, Netbig.com said this number had risen between 30 to 50 per cent
annually in the past two years with well over 1,000 entering mainland campuses last year. 
     The Internet site, based in the Chinese city of Shenzhen, provides education service and information on
Chinese mainland colleges and universities. "Many Taiwanese believe a Chinese education giving more
knowledge about the people and culture in the mainland will increase their chances in the Chinese job
market," Netbig.com vice-president Ingrid Huang said. "I believe it will give me hands-on experience in the business field in the Chinese mainland and a better understanding of the Chinese mainland people," said
Lydia Chang, a 19-year-old majoring in journalism at Shi Shin University. Chang plans to go on to get a
master's degree in business administration in Shanghai, which she says offers the best environment for such
studies.
     A journalism graduate student, Lin, at the National Taiwan University said he would like to study law
on the Chinese mainland since "there will be better career prospects for me now that more Taiwanese
companies are going there".
    Some business executives were sending their children to study in the Chinese mainland. "They hope the
children could build up connections which could later become useful in their business operations," said
Yang Chingyao, professor of the Chinese mainland studies.
     A Netbig.com survey showed the campuses favoured by Taiwanese students included Beijing,
Qinghua and Renmin universities in Beijing, and Jinan and Zhongshan universities in Guangzhou. The most
popular studies were law, business and Chinese medicine.
     At present, Chinese Taibei doesn't recognize diplomas earned in the Chinese mainland nor help with
any inquiries about studying there. But recognizing the trend, education authorities are giving a final form
to a policy accepting certificates (iiE45) from selected universities.
1. More Taiwanese students study on the Chinese mainland because _____.
A. Taiwan will reunite with the mainland sooner or later
B. the fees asked for are lower than those of Taiwan
C. what they have learned on the mainland will bring them a bright future
D. there are many famous universities for them to choose
2. Some business executives were sending their children to study in the Chinese mainland so that their
children _____.
A. could receive better education
B. could learn more about the policy there
C. could do well in their business operations
D. could make more friends there
3. The underlined word "it" in paragraph 3 refers to _____.
A. Netbig.com B. a Chinese education on the mainland
C. the Chinese job market D. the university
4. The main idea of paragraph 4 is _____.
A. law in the Chinese mainland is pleasant to learn
B. Taiwanese companies are coming to the Chinese mainland because the law there is perfect
C. more Taiwanese companies coming to the mainland makes it better to learn laws
D. the mainland is short of lawyers for the Taiwanese companies
5. The author wrote the article to tell us _____.
A. the number of Taiwanese students going to universities on the mainland had been increasing year after
     year
B. more Taiwanese students are studying on the mainland
C. education on the mainland is more attractive compared with that of Taiwan
D. Taiwan and the mainland should co-operate with each other in every field.
