r fate although some would point their finger at the demerits of the system. It is no exaggeration to say that when the national entrance examination resumed in 1977, it was a milestone in the modern history of this country because it was the first time in several decades that everybody had an equal right to higher education. Before 1977, most of the universities students were remended from among workers, farmers and service people from the People39。 s Liberation Army. The family background rather than exam scores would sometimes make the difference. My uncle was one of the best graduates from his senior high school and got very high scores in the college entrance exam, but he was denied the chance of entering a university simply because of his father39。 s political label of being a rightist. Some accuse the exam of exerting too heavy a burden on students from primary school age. They do have to work hard to get good marks so that they can gain a place in a top high school, senior high school and finally a university. Some even accuse this examinationdominated education system of rote learning. These problems do exist, but they are not good reasons to abolish the national entrance exam. The exam is and will always be the only way to gauge whether a student is qualified to enter university.. What I treasure most is the equality that an exam guarantees everyone. If you fail the first time, you can always try again. If you enter a university not up to your expectations, you still have the opportunity to e nter a better university for your postgraduate degree as long as you work hard.

According to official figures, the number of qualified applicants who registered to take the 2020 national civil servants examination surpassed 1 million as of Oct 23, one day before the deadline, as this year39。 s number is likely to surpass last year39。 s million. Two most soughtafter positions— one with the National Energy Administration and the other with the Ministry of Culture— received 4,261 and 3,556 applicants, respectively. Why is the exam so attractive? There are probably three main reasons. First, the soaring number of graduates cultivated by universities39。 enrollment expansion put big pressures on the employment market in recent years. Second, some people39。 s excessive pursuit of civil servant positions can be attributed to the tradition of power worship. In their eyes, one39。 s position decides all。 it is the only criterion of one39。 s success. This kind of thought is not rare since the powerbased doctrine, which has lasted for thousands of years in feudal China, is still deeprooted in today39。 s social structure. Third, it is believed that a civil servant holds a lifelong gold rice bowl. They are less likely to face unemployment, which is the biggest risk of employees in enterprises. Besides, civil servants can enjoy various social benefits, including low housing prices. As for those potential civil servants who only want to benefit from civil service, they only wish to enjoy the cake of society, rather than making it themselves. Their aim of contributing their knowledge and intelligence to distribution rather than production should not be encouraged. However, on the other hand, overheated civil servants is not good for our country, for its most obvious result is overstaffed ans.
