　　The 18-year-old Hubei examinee Xue Jiazhi walked into the examination room on the 7th. In addition to stationery such as pens, pencils, and erasers, this year's "special equipment" such as masks, tissues, and quick-drying hand disinfectant were brought into the examination room.

　　There are more than 10 million candidates entering the examination room like Xue Jiazhi this year. Affected by the new Coronary Pneumonia epidemic, this year's college entrance examination was postponed for a month, making it easier for senior high school candidates to postpone admission to prepare for the exam more fully.

　　In addition to the time delay, enter the examination room to measure body temperature and sign a good faith agreement... This year's college entrance examination is still different from previous years. Ensure that "health college entrance examination", "fair college entrance examination", "stable college entrance examination", "warm college entrance examination" and "integrity college entrance examination" become official goals.

　　Strict measures to prevent and control epidemic situation

　　In the college entrance examination under the normalization of epidemic prevention and control, the first thing is to measure body temperature. Prior to this, various places had conducted daily temperature measurement and physical health monitoring of candidates and test staff 14 days in advance.

　　The temperature of all personnel entering the test center on that day must be below 37.3℃. Xue Jiazhi's mother said that it rained a little in the morning, the weather was cooler, and the child's body temperature was normal. Because the teacher reminded the parents not to get together, she went home after sending her child into the examination room.

　　Unlike previous crowds, this year's examination staff repeatedly reminded to maintain spacing and avoid crowding. After the test every day, each test center will also do a preventive disinfection of the test room.

　　According to the requirements, each test center must be equipped with sufficient anti-epidemic materials, and a quarantine test room and quarantine facilities are set up. In principle, there is one spare and isolated examination room for every 10 ordinary examination rooms. At the same time, the test center has set up a re-examination room for persons with abnormal body temperature, etc., for the personnel to be inspected to prepare for the inspection and the unqualified personnel to take a short rest adjustment.

　　Xue Jiazhi's mother told reporters that the teacher had already said that the examination places, passages, and even the tables, chairs and benches were cleaned and disinfected. If there is fever or cough during the exam, it will be transferred to the standby isolation exam. Relative to the risk of whether the test will be contagious, she is more worried about whether the rain will interfere with the children's questions.

　　Strict standards ensure exam safety

　　Enabling the face recognition system, building an intelligent identity authentication cloud platform, and volunteering the reporting system to achieve two-factor authentication... On the eve of this year’s college entrance examination, several adverse events that affected the previous college entrance examination were exposed. The use of scientific and technological means in the college entrance examination is becoming more and more extensive.

　　The Ministry of Education has repeatedly emphasized strict supervision of all links, strict discipline of examination rooms, strengthened entrance examinations and patrols during examinations, and timely prevented and handled violations and frauds. During the examination, the candidates' identification, video monitoring of the examination process were started, and radio cheating prevention and control, online patrol and other technical means were used to counter high-tech cheating with high-tech means.

　　Since 2020, the network security department of the national public security organs, together with the education department, has maintained a high-pressure crackdown on various types of "test-related" criminal activities carried out using Internet and wireless examination cheating equipment, and continued to investigate and crack down on "test-related" criminal activities. More than 30 criminal cases.

　　The fairness of college entrance examination is also concerned by all parties. Officials said they will increase supervision and inspection of illegal admissions, insist on finding together, investigating and handling together, and zero tolerance. Seriously carry out freshman admissions review, for freshmen who falsify, cheat in exams, cheat for extra points or attempt to impersonate, resolutely cancel their admission qualifications and deal with them seriously; cancelling their student registration when registering for admission, no electronic registration of freshman student registrations; Discipline inspection and supervision and other departments will investigate the end and pursue the responsibilities of relevant personnel according to law and discipline.

　　Steady reforms go a long way

　　With the admission rate of college entrance examinations exceeding 80%, how to cultivate top-notch innovative talents has become a major issue in the education sector in recent years. This year, the Ministry of Education issued the "Opinions on the Pilot Reform of Enrollment of Basic Disciplines in Some Universities" (also known as the "Strong Foundation Program"), focusing on selecting a group of aspiring, interested and gifted young students for special training and exploration Conduct a comprehensive and comprehensive evaluation of students in enrollment, and guide middle schools to pay attention to the cultivation of students' comprehensive quality.

　　This year is the first year of implementation of the "Strong Foundation Program", with 36 pilot universities participating. In order to ensure the fairness of the exam, the written test and the interview must be arranged in the standardized test site of the national education exam. The interview is conducted by experts and candidates in the "double random" lottery, and the entire process is recorded and recorded. At the same time, strengthen supervision and management of enrollment, improve information disclosure, increase discipline inspection and supervision, and seriously investigate and deal with violations of laws and regulations.

　　In addition, this year is the final year for a decisive battle to overcome poverty. It is of great significance to implement a special plan for recruiting students from rural and poor areas in key universities. Since 2012, this special program has accumulatively admitted nearly 600,000 students.

　　In response to this year's special situation, the poverty-stricken counties in the region where the national special plan is implemented can continue to enjoy the national special plan policy this year after they have lifted out of poverty. The enrollment of key colleges and universities in rural and poor areas will continue to expand. In addition, all localities will further coordinate resources and complete the task of enrolling higher vocational colleges. (Finish)
