The State should try to improve the emergency (突发事件) management of the national college entrance examination to make sure every student has equal access to the exam.
Almost 5,000 students in Jian’ou, a city in eastern China’s Fujian Province, sat the national college entrance exam on Tuesday, one week later than the students in the rest of the country.
After receiving an application from local officials to put off the exam as a result of a flood, the central government made all the necessary arrangements to help the local government prepare the examination, including printing back-up exam papers, making necessary repairs to the exam locations and stepping up safety measures in the area. All of these measures resulted in the attendance of all the local students on Tuesday.
Although these students only make up a tiny part of the 10 million students sitting the exam this year, the central, provincial and local governments all offered enough resources, and made the necessary preparations to ensure the smooth holding of the exam.
Every student qualified to take the exam should get the chance to sit the exam. Only when all students gain equal access to the exam is it possible to talk about complete fairness. Losing the chance to sit the national college entrance exam only adds insult (羞辱) to injury.
These special arrangements are a clear sign of the government’s human-oriented policies. Also, they show the idea of fair education. A fair education covers not only the rights of the majority. It means that the rights of the minority are protected as well.

政府应当尝试提高针对高考突发事件的应变能力，以确保每名考生都得以平等地参加全国大学统一招生考试．

周二,位于中国东部福建省建鸥市的近5000名考生参加了今年的高考,较这个国家其余地方的考生晚了一周的时间.

收到地方官员因洪水而要求推迟今年高考的申请以后,为帮助当地政府准备这次考试,中央政府做了全面必要的安排.准备工作包括印制备用考卷,对考试场点进行必要的修缮,以及在该地区加强安全防范措施.这一切都是为当地全体考生周二的高考而付出的努力.

尽管这些考生只占今年全国1000万考生的很小一部分,但为了保证这次考试的顺利进行,中央，福建省，以及当地政府却为此提供了充足的资源,做了必要的准备.

每名合格的考生都应当得到机会参加这次考试.只有在所有考生都享有平等的考试权的条件下, 才能言及公平竞争.让考生失去参加高考的机会,只能是对他们的羞辱,导致他们的心灵受到伤害.

所有这些特殊安排,是政府实施＂以人为本＂政策的鲜明标志之一．同时，它们也反映了教育公平理念的贯彻．教育公平不仅涵盖了大多数人的权益,也意味着少数人的权益也同样能够得到保障.
