门终于开了，成千上万考生蜂拥而出。“真壮观啊”，一位父亲一声感叹后，随即四处找寻女儿的身影。

Finally opened the door,Tens of thousands of candidates pouring out."True sight",A father after a loud sigh,Then looks around for her daughter's figure.

　　这里是香港亚洲国际博览馆，以举办Lady Gaga、王菲等国际歌星的万人演唱会蜚声中外。上周末，这里成为数千名内地的高中生的SAT(Scholastic Assessment Test)考场。场外，陪考父母们一手拉着行李箱，一手挽着各色培训中介礼品袋，倚在铁栏杆后望着考场大门。

This is Hong Kong Asia international expo hall,To the host Lady Gaga/Faye wong and other international star ten thousand Chinese and foreign famous concert.Last weekend,Here be thousands of the mainland's high school students SAT(Scholastic Assessment Test)examination.street,PeiKao parents hand took the suitcase,A walking arm in arm with all kinds of training intermediary gift bag,Leaning against the steel bars after looking at the examination room door.

　　SAT，中文名称为“学术能力评估测试”，由美国大学委员会(College Board)主办。SAT考试成绩是美国高校录取学生时的一大参考标准，被视为美国版高考。

SAT,Chinese name called"Academic ability evaluation test",The university committee by the United States(College Board)host.SAT test scores is the American college students admitted to a discloser standard,Be regarded as the United States version of the college entrance examination.

　　五个小时的马拉松考试是对年方十六七岁的考生和他们父母的共同考验。而对香港消费市场和考试培训中介来说，SAT是一场经济盛宴。由于内地不设SAT考点，赴港赶考成为联结香港和内地的又一条纽带。

Five hours of marathon test is to the party 16 students and their parents' common test.But to Hong Kong consumer market and the training for intermediary,SAT is a feast of economy.Due to the mainland do not set SAT test,Descend to visit Hong Kong become a connection of Hong Kong and the mainland and a link.

　　一名考生的父亲向《第一财经日报》记者表示，考场附近的机场富豪酒店，考试前晚(1月25日)的住宿价格高达4000多港元，是1月24日的一倍。“我问酒店为什么要加倍，他们说你们要考SAT啊！”他说。

A candidates to the father[The first financial daily]reporters,The examination room nearby airport rich hotel,Test the night before last(On January 25th)The accommodation price as high as more than 4000 hk dollar,It's on January 24 days of The Times."I asked why double hotel,They say that you want to SAT test ah!"He said.

　　

智力、体力和毅力 intelligence/Strength and perseverance

　　SAT考试分为两部分，一是通用考试——推理测验(Reasoning Test)，由批判性阅读、数学、写作三部分试题组成，满分2400分，被称为SAT1；二是单科考试——专项测验(Subject Test)，有数学、物理、化学、生物、外语(包括汉语、日语、德语、法语、西班牙语)等可供选择，被统称为SAT2，每科满分800分。

SAT test is divided into two parts,One is the general test - reasoning test(Reasoning Test),The critical reading/mathematics/In the third part of the writing of test,Full score 2400 points,Some called;The second is the exam - specifies the special test(Subject Test),A mathematical/physical/chemical/biological/Foreign language(Including Chinese/Japanese/German/French/Spanish)Selection, etc,Be collectively referred to as SAT2,Each department full score 800 points.

　　SAT每年1月、5月、6月、10月、11月及12月均在美国以外的世界各地考点举行共六次。由于SAT在中国内地未设考点， 内地考生唯有选择在美国大学理事会网上报名后，到设有考点的香港或新加坡参加考试。

SAT January/may/June/October/November and 12 in the circumstance outside the United States held all over the world were six times test.Due to the SAT in mainland China does not have a test, Mainland students only choice in the college board after online registration,To test a Hong Kong or Singapore for the exam.

　　“我们去年7月就报名参加这次考试了。”1月26日是SAT今年首场考试，一名来自杭州的妈妈告诉本报记者，“场地有限，晚了连名都报不到。”

"In July last year we sign up to take part in the examination."On January 26, is this year the first SAT test,A from hangzhou's mother told our reporter,"Limited space,Late even names for less than."

　　本报记者发现，美国大学委员会的网站上，报名日期显示有中文的月份标注。这个考生母亲已是第二次带女儿到港参加SAT，她说考试前5个月便订好了考场旁的天际万豪酒店，每晚2000多港元。

Our reporter found,The college board's web site,The registration date is showed in Chinese label.This is the second time the mother had already take my daughter to the port in SAT,She said before the exam, 5 months and ordered by the examination room the marriott hotel,Hk $2000 per night.

　　有香港媒体曾报道，2007年10月至2008年6月，约7000名内地考生赴港参加SAT，2008年10月到2009年6月又翻了一番，达到1.5万多人。2011年，内地考生人数再次刷新，接近2万人。

Hong Kong media reported,In October 2007 to June 2008,About 7000 students in the mainland to Hong Kong SAT,In October 2008 to June 2009 and doubled,Up to 15000 people.In 2011,,The number of students who want to refresh the mainland again,Nearly 20000 people.

　　有业内人士保守估算，每场考试有5000名内地考生，去年在港参加SAT的内地考生总数可能至少达到3万人。一家培训机构的总裁助理称，每年10月份的考试尤其多，因为美国大学入学申请一般在每年的11月份截止。

The personage inside course of study conservative estimation,Each test 5000 mainland students,Last year in Hong Kong to the mainland students SAT total may be at least 30000 people.A training institutions assistant President said,Every year in October test especially,Because American college application in general each November deadline.

　　本报记者向香港考评局求证，对方以与美方协议不可披露考生数据为由，拒绝评论上述媒体报道及估算。截至发稿时，美国大学委员会仍未回复本报的查询。

Our correspondent to the Hong Kong examinations and assessment authority verification,The other party to the agreement and shall not disclose candidates for data,Refused to comment on the media reports and estimation.At the time when,The college board is still not reply to our inquiry.

　　但该机构称，除了SAT以外，目前内地考生还会到港参加其他一些国际性考试，包括TOEFL(托福)、ACT(美国大学入学考试)及AP(美国大学预修课程考试)等。

But the agency says,In addition to SAT outside,At present the mainland candidates are likely to return to the port to some other international test,Including the TOEFL(toefl)/ACT(The college entrance examination)And AP(The American college of preventive repair course exam)etc.

　　上述培训机构总裁助理告诉本报记者，以往SAT考试考点散布在香港30多所中小学，但鉴于内地考生人数日益庞大，香港考点代办机构香港考评局从去年10月份开始，将参加SAT1的考生全部集中在亚洲国际博览馆统一应考。

The training institutions assistant President told our reporter,Ever SAT test in Hong Kong spread more than 30 middle schools and primary schools,But in view of the mainland students an increasingly large number,Hong Kong examination site visa agencies Hong Kong examinations and assessment authority since last October start,Some students will take part in the whole focus on Asia international expo hall unified exam.

　

　场外“厮杀” street"fight"

　　SAT考试经济为香港旅游业注入了新力量。有考生家长[微博]称，大半天的考试后往往配以购物和旅游的“甜点”。以一名考生和两名家长每次赴港参加考试停留两晚估算，计入机票、购物和餐饮等消费，每个考生家庭便可为香港贡献至少2万港元的旅游收入。以每年4万个内地考生到港参加SAT计算，一年便有8亿港元的旅游收入来自SAT经济。

SAT for the Hong Kong tourism economy into a new strength.Parents have the [micro bo] says,The best part of the test often match with shopping and travel"dessert".With a candidates and two parents every time to port for the exam stay for two nights estimation,Included in the ticket/Shopping and dining and consumption,Every candidate for Hong Kong family can contribute at least 20000 hk dollars tourism revenue.Every year 40000 candidates in the mainland to Hong Kong SAT calculation,A year has 800 million hk dollars from tourism income SAT economy.

　　香港特别行政区行政长官梁振英近日表示，内地旅客已经成为香港旅游业最大的收入来源。香港旅游发展局数据显示，去年前三个季度访港内地游客超过253万人次，比前年同期增长24.2%。

The Hong Kong special administrative region chief executive LiangZhenYing said recently,Mainland passengers has become Hong Kong travel industry's largest source of revenue.Hong Kong tourism board data display,The first three quarters of last year to visit the mainland visitors to Hong Kong more than 2.53 million people,Growth of 24.2% over the same period last year than the year before.

　　和一些酒店一样，中介也在发考试财。考生埋首奋战的将近四个小时成为中介机构“厮杀”劝说陪考家长掏腰包的时机。和考试同步，中介纷纷在博览馆内租下演讲厅举办讲座。

And some of the same hotel,Intermediary also in hair test wealth.Candidates for his nearly four hours become intermediaries"fight"Persuade PeiKao parents dig down time.And exam synchronous,Intermediary in the lecture hall rented in expo held seminars.

　　讲座中但凡出现图表，父母们纷纷举起手机拍下。由于竞争激烈，一些新兴中介还以每日400港元的酬金，雇用在港读书内地大学生负责拉客。

Lecture appear in chart,Parents are raised under their cell phones to take a picture.Due to the fierce competition,Some emerging intermediary in the daily hk $400 fee,Hire in port to read the mainland students responsible for soliciting.

　　上述培训机构的总裁助理向本报记者透露，亚洲国际博览馆要求中介机构今年必须一次订好六次考试的宣传场地，“每个演讲厅一次至少要8万~10万港元的租场费。”

The training institutions assistant President to our reporter said,Asia international expo hall for intermediary organizations must be a good year for six times test site publicity,"Each lecture hall a should be at least 80000 ~ 100000 hk dollars rent a fee."

　　羊毛出在羊身上。

Wool comes from the sheep.

　　有考生父母便告诉本报记者，他们已经为孩子报读了几次培训班，每次动辄一万元人民币，如果要参加一对一的定点培训，每小时收费高达1000元人民币。

Have students parents he told our reporter,They have for the children to read a few times training class,Every time frequently is ten thousand yuan RMB,If you are to attend a one-on-one point training,Per hour for up to 1000 yuan RMB.

　　

代沟 Generation gap

　　SAT不设考试次数限制，但高燕定提醒家长，“裸考”(无准备下考试)的后果可能很严重，因为曾出现考生多次试考刷分，进步太快被美国大学理事会判断为成绩无效的案例。

SAT do not set the number limit,But GaoYan will remind parents,"Bare test"(The test without preparation)The consequences could be very serious,Because once appear many times I test candidates,Progress fast by the college board judgment for achievement invalid case.

　　已经参加过一次SAT考试的一名高三女孩对此不以为然。“我们学校高一高二的学生都开始参加SAT考试了，还有的早从初中便开始准备。”她说，自己对历史感兴趣，已考了一次SAT2单科考试，但美国历史的难度仍让她始料未及，但不试考怎么知道呢？

Had attended a SAT of a high school girl to disagree."Our high school high school students are beginning to SAT the exam,There are early from junior middle school began to prepare."She said,Their interested in history,Already got a SAT2 specifies the exam,But the history of the United States still let her unexpected difficulty,But don't test how can anyone know?

　　这个女孩就读于杭州的一所私立中学，“我喜欢自由的美式教育，不愿参加中国高考。”她去年暑假参加了康奈尔大学的Summer School(暑期学校)，获得了7个学分，“刚刚去的时候我天天打电话想家，可到了该回家时却不想回去了。”

The girl in hangzhou in a private middle school,"I enjoy the free American education,To take part in China's college entrance examination."She took part in the last Summer vacation at Cornell university Summer School(Summer school),Won seven credits,"Just go every day I want to call home,Can go to the home but don't want to go back."

　　中国教育部数据显示，2008年报名参加高考的中学生人数达到1050万人，此后逐年下降直到去年的915万人。

China's ministry of education data display,2008 high school students enrolled in the university entrance exam to reach 10.5 million people,Since then decreases year by year until 9.15 million last year.

　　就SAT是否能够在内地开设考点这一问题，截至发稿时，教育部相关部门并未给予回应。

Just SAT in the mainland, the test whether can open this problem,At the time when,The ministry of education related department did not give response.

　　“对待SAT，我们的态度可以开放一点。”21世纪教育研究院[微博]副院长熊丙奇[微博]说，对于SAT，必须抛开国内高考的思路，完全按照国外大学的升学考试制度和多元评价体系来分析。

"Treat SAT,Our attitude can open a little."The 21st century education research institute, vice President of the [micro bo] XiongBingJi [micro bo] said,For SAT,Have to get out of the train of thought of domestic college entrance examination,In full accordance with the foreign college entrance examination system and multiple evaluation system to analysis.

　　这不代表所有家长的想法。

It does not mean all parents idea.

　　“现在的孩子都很有自己的想法。”上述女孩的妈妈虽然在资金和精神上予以支持，却对SAT狂热略有微词，“这跟国内高考一样变味了，一次不行再考第二次、第三次……我们想要的只是孩子开心成长而已。”

"Now the children have their own ideas."The girl's mother, although in capital and spiritually support,But the SAT a little fever criticism,"With the domestic university entrance exam is stale,A not to test the second/The third……We want is just happy children's growth."

　　这也是为什么SAT有了中国式高考的国际升级版的说法。

This is why SAT a Chinese college entrance examination international upgrade version of the statement.

　　考生们已无力探讨这样的“人生话题”。1月26日的考试结束后，机场快线地铁内满是完成马拉松式考试的内地考生的身影。一个瘦弱的、戴着眼镜的女孩靠在父亲肩头小憩，母亲则轻抚着女儿的手。他们知道，这只是万里长征的第一步。

Students has not been able to discuss this"Life topic".On January 26, after the test,The airport express line inside is full of complete marathon test the figure of the mainland.A thin/Wear glasses girl on father a shoulder,Mother is lightly stroking her daughter's hand.They know,This is only the first step in the long march.
