There were only about 110 thousand college students when New China was bornin 1949, while the number hit 3.5 million 50 years later in 1998. And what impresses us most is the college recruitment of 1999--1.56 million, which is 44% higher than that of the previous year--1.08 million in 1998. Sral factors contribute to the booming of China's higher education. First, China's rapid economic dlop ment lays the base. In 1952, China'sGDP was only 67.9 billion yuan. In 1998, the figure soared to 7.94 trillion. Second, the Chinese government, counting on education to be another force to significantly rther its economy, has made a series of preferential policies to quicken the dlopment of higher education. One of the measures taken, for example, is the widening of college recruit ment starting from 1999. Seeing the education boost today, I have ry reason to look forward to a still brighter ture for China's higher education. I'm sure China will continue to in crease college enrollment in the years to come.
