　　Craze for Civil Service Examinations

　　Every year hundreds of thous ands of people in China take civil service exams conducted at various levels in the hope of becoming government employees. Among them, college graduates are a fast-growing force that can't be ignored. The craze for being a civil servant is not limited to liberal arts majors, as it's also gaining popularity among science and engineering students.

　　In the final analysis, this growing trend among the youngsters is mainly attributable to two factors - ambitions and comforts. On the one hand, many ambitious college graduates view these exams as a springboard to a higher social status, greater power and prestige, on which many of their other wishes rest. On the other, as being a civil servant generally means a stable income, enviable healthcare and pension programmes, as well as other comforts of life, it's quite an appealing career option to many people, especially in this age of sluggish world economy.

　　Personally, the desire to be a government official is beyond reproach, as the nation and the people do need an injection of new blood into the civil service sectors. The fresh-faced college graduates, armed with lofty ideals, new vision, and strong drive, are undoubtedly among the best candidates.
