Visitors to this country are normally admitted for six months, but foreign students can
usually stay for one year. They must for a of fifteen hours a week on a daytime course. Prospective students have to show that
they can afford their studies, and that they have sufficient resources to support themselves in this country.
In order to work here the foreigner needs a work permit, prospective employer. The problem here is that the Department of Employment has the right to
grant or these permits, and there is little that can be done it; it would be extremely
unwise for a foreign visitor to work a permit, since anyone doing so is liable to immediate
deportation (驱逐出境). There are some people from the European countries, who are often given residence permits of up to five years. Some other people, such as doctors, foreign journalists,
authors and others can work without permits, and foreign students are normally allowed to
part-time jobs while they are studying here.

Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese and put your translation on the ANSWER SHEET.
The generation gap is so great in Hong Kong that the teenagers there rarely turn to their
parents or teachers for advice on anything. Whether it be sex, AIDS, school worries or family
problems, adults are not considered up to the job.
Until now, no one has asked Hong Kong youth, "What do you think?" Some understanding
of the emotions of Hong Kong's youth, however, has come from the work of Dr. Jeffrey Day – at
the University of Hong Kong. His survey of young people does not focus, for example, on how
many drugs they take -- but tries to answer the question why.
Dr. Day hopes the results, which he plans to explain in full next week, will reveal what
troubles -- as well as pleases -- today's high-school students. Conclusions will be passed on not
only to government departments but back to the schools which took part.
