Students in Hengshui, Hebei province launch paper airplanes in class on Tuesday to lighten the pressure of the upcoming Gaokao, or national college entrance exam.
According to statistics from the Ministry of Education, 9.39 million students will take the exam, an increase of 270,000 compared to 2013. Twenty-eight provinces recognized the problem facing the children of migrant workers taking the college entrance exam, who would normally take it in their hometown. Now, 56,000 of those students will be able to take the test where they reside, without having to go back to their hometowns. [Photo/Xinhua]
