听力原文: The University of California at Davis has government experiments with chemicals to get a bigger crop each year. But they haven't paid enough attention to necessary safety measures. In 1964 or 1965, an airplane was spraying chemicals over the fields. Flying low, the wheels of the plane were caught on the fence wire. The pilot got out, dusted himself off, and drank some water from a nearby pond. Then he died. The nurses and doctors got terribly sick too because of the chemicals he had on his body. A little girl was playing around a sprayer. She stuck her tongue on it and she died immediately.
These chemicals affect the farm worker through the lungs. He breathes them in. Nobody looks into the cause at all. They just was the he is sick.
Why did the plane fall to the ground?
A.It was flying low.
B.Its wheels were caught on a tree.
C.Because the chemicals caught fire easily.
Hamilton isn't the only educator crossing the Atlantic. School in France, Egypt, Singapore, etc. have also recently made top-level hires from abroad. Higher education has become a big and competitive business nowadays, and like so many business, it's gone global. Yet the talent flow isn't universal. High-level personnel tend to head in only one direction: outward from America.
The chief reason is that American schools don't tend to seriously consider looking abroad. For example, when the board of the University of Colorado searched for a new president, it wanted a leader familiar with the state government, a major source of the university's budget, "We didn't do any global consideration", says Patricia Hayes, the board's chair. The board ultimately picked Bruce Benson, a 69-year-old Colorado businessman and political activist(活动家) who is likely to do well in the main task of modern university presidents: fund raising. Fund raising is a distinctively American thing, since U.S. schools rely heavily on donations. The fund-raising ability is largely a product of experience and necessity.
Many European universities, meanwhile, are still mostly dependent on government funding. But government support has failed to keep pace with rising student numbers. The decline in government support has made fund-raising an increasingly necessary ability among administrators, and has hiring committees hungry for Americans.
In the past few years, prominent schools around the world have joined the trend. In 2003, when Cambridge University appointed Alison Richard, another former Yale provost, as its vice-chancellor, the university publicly stressed that in her previous job she had overseen(监督) "a major strengthening of Yale's financial position".
Of course, fund-raising isn't the only skill outsiders offer. The globalization of education means more universities will be seeking heads with international experience of some kind to promote international programs and attract a global student body. Foreigners can offer a fresh perspective on established practices.
What is the current trend in higher education discussed in the passage?
A.Institutions worldwide are hiring administrators from the U.S.
B.A lot of political activists are being recruited as administrators.
C.American universities are enrolling more international students.
D.University presidents are paying more attention to fund-raising.
