2.Last year a senior official at the Ministry of Human Resources said that Central and Provincial governments will now only recruit new public servants from among those with “two years of work experience.” Although most jobs offer on-the-job training, many feel that workers with previous experience will do a better job than new college graduates.What is your opinion? Should the government still hire graduates who lack experience?
3.The Ministry of Education has asked universities around the nation to make busine ownership courses mandatory for all undergraduate students if poible.The courses should foster students’ “entrepreneurial spirit” and give them the basic skills to start their own businees.Should compulsory entrepreneurship courses be introduced to every student at Chinese universities?

7.The widening gap between rich and poor has slowed the development of a harmonious society.To help solve this problem, officials in Wuhan have required all new development projects to set aside areas for low-priced housing and high-priced housing in each housing community.They hope to end the practice of having distinct rich areas and poor areas in the city.Do you think having rich and poor living near each other will solve the problems created by the income gap?

Should people be required to use their real names online?
9.There is an old Chinese idiom that goes like this: Raise a son to provide for you in old age, just as you store grain for hungry times.In Chinese culture, grown children are supposed to care for their parents.But because of rising competition at work, housing costs, and living expenses, it can be hard for young adults to fulfill their duties to their parents.Do you think the government should improve the social security system to help adult children with this responsibility, or do you think children have this duty regardle of social-economic circumstances?
10.In China’s schools at all levels every cla has a cla council(ban wei)which is made up of several students in charge of affairs like study, sports, organization and helping teachers organize the cla, among others.This practice has been criticized by many in China, saying that this cla council system has a negative impact on children’s personality development.However, many parents and teachers are in favor of keeping the system.Do you think the cla council system should be cancelled?

Are “Wolf Dad” methods good for creating succe?
12.This year many people have been discuing a poible “boy crisis” in China.They say that boys are falling behind in academic achievement, getting lower scores on the college entrance exam and occupying fewer seats in college.Many educators say that schools need to be reformed based on gender so that boys can be educated in a way more suitable to them.Others say that there are still more men than women holding higher degrees and men get more opportunities in the workplace… So obviously we do not need gender-based education.Do you think we need to change our schools so that boys can do better than girls?
13.Recently, some members of the government have proposed lowering the marriage age to 18.They say that any citizen aged 18 is legally an adult and they should have the right to marry at that age.Lowering the age will give people more choices.Others say that, because of society and cultural reasons, the marriage age should not be lowered.They say also that, physical maturity and mental maturity do not come at the same time.What do you think about lowering the marriage age to 18?

16.Beauty contests on college and university campuses have been the subject of controversy in recent years.Some see them as harmle entertainment and an opportunity for students to distinguish themselves, or even to advance their careers.Others see them as a distraction at best.The harshest critics denounce the contests as sexist and anti-intellectual.Furthermore, these pageants allegedly exploit students for financial gain.What is your view 3 concerning beauty contests on campus?
17.During this year's summer Olympics in London, a number of athletes competed for countries with which they do not apparently have strong ties.Some have immigrated from one country to another.Others hold dual citizenship, but have competed in the past for a different country than the one they represented this year.How do you feel about an Olympic athlete changing their citizenship and competing for a different country?
18.The field of online education continues to expand.Even many prestigious universities are offering online courses, often free of charge.However, there is often no way to obtain a formal diploma or certificate upon completion of such courses.Some argue that online education is eentially equivalent to traditional claroom-based learning.Others maintain that there are significant differences between the two.In your view, should those who study online receive the same credentials as those who attend brick-and-mortar institutions of higher learning?
19.Some leading universities in this country have proposed that they offer generous scholarships in order to attract top students.Some feel that drawing the best and the brightest from abroad would make Chinese institutions more competitive.Others think that additional money for scholarships would not be effective in making top Chinese universities truly world-cla.Instead, they advocate improving the quality of the faculty and research facilities.What do you believe would be the best move for Chinese higher education at this time?With rising prices in the housing market and uncertain job prospects, a number of young people are getting married without first establishing themselves financially.Some believe that love is enough to overcome any obstacle a couple may face in their life together.In some cases they even want to make a statement against materialism.Others are alarmed at the prospect of people getting married without first preparing a home and otherwise securing their financial future.Are those who marry without savings, a home, car or other poeions wise or foolish?
21.Yao Ming's daughter was born in the United States.Yao, together with his wife, chose American citizenship for their daughter—rather than Chinese citizenship.It makes sense in the eyes of many for Yao's daughter to have kept her US citizenship.Others feel the only patriotic thing to have done would have been to have his daughter abandon ties to the US and fully embrace her roots as a Chinese citizen.What do you think of Yao's decision? 22.Given that 20% of the world's population speaks Chinese, it is a legitimate question whether all Chinese students should in fact be learning English.Some feel that the thousands of hours invested by students in learning English could be better spent focusing on their majors.Others maintain that English, as the de-facto international language, is eential for China's future.Do you think English should continue to be a required subject for the vast majority of Chinese students?

24.It has been proposed by the Kunming city government that visitors to Dianchi Lake be charged a fee for environmental protection.Some see this as a legitimate charge, believing that fighting pollution requires money.Others counter that the main sources of pollution in the region are local factories, population growth, and agricultural practices.It may not be fair to tourists to make them pay this fee.Do you agree with the city government's plan?
25.After a number of school bus accidents in recent years, new manufacturing standards for school buses have been proposed.The Yutong bus company has played a major role in formulating the new standards.It is hoped that the standards would save lives.However, some are concerned that buses built under the proposed standards would be too costly for schools in rural areas.Others raise the poibility that Yutong is not genuinely concerned about the safety of students, but simply wants to make more money.Should the standards be implemented or scrapped?
26.Recently an undergraduate journalism student at Huazhong University of Science and Technology complained about the mandatory math claes that he has to take.His complaint seemed reasonable to many other humanities students who complain that hard science claes are a waste of brain power.Others disagree and say that “comprehensive” development is helpful to people in all fields.Should college students’ studies be fully separated into the humanities and sciences?
