| College to expel students over sex |
大學生當“二奶”將被開除 |
| Students found to have had sex during term time or who have relationships with married people may be expelled, South China Normal University (SCNU) has warned, according to cnr.cn. Hearings will be held before any punishment and students will have the right to appeal. The new regulation drew heated debate among students and others. Students say the university is making a mountain out of a molehill and that it will be impossible to enforce the rules. But SCNU is not alone. Chongqing Normal University has similar regulations, saying students will be expelled if they provide escort services, become an "Er Nai" or "second wife", take a mistress, or have a one night stand. |
據中廣網報道，華南師范大學上月就學生發生性關系和破壞他人婚姻發出嚴厲警告：同居或與已婚人士保持“特殊關系”、破壞別人婚姻的學生會被開除學籍。學校在做出任何懲罰前都會舉行聽證，學生有權申訴。此規定一出，立即引起了高校學生和社會的熱議。華師大學生有的認為學校小題大做，有的則認為這樣的規定執行起來很難。無獨有偶，重慶師范大學此前也已試行類似的規定，“發現當三陪、當二奶、當二爺、搞一夜情的將開除學籍”。 |

| China's economy passes Japan's |
中國經濟超日本 全球第二 |
| After three decades of spectacular growth, China overtook Japan in the second quarter to become the world's second-largest economy behind the United States, the New York Times reported today. The news came early Monday, when Tokyo said that Japan's economy was valued at about US$1.28 trillion in the second quarter, slightly below China's US$1.33 trillion. Japan's economy grew 0.4 percent in the quarter, Tokyo said, substantially less than forecast. That weakness suggests that China's economy will race past Japan's over the full year. |
