【答案解析】[解析] 6-10 Delia Robinson: It's 18:30 GMT and welcome to BBC's Overseas Students at British Universities. I'm Delia Robinson. In our series of broadcast Overseas Students at British Universities yesterday, we talked about students from Russia. Today, we will have an inwith four Chinese students that are studying at the University of Oxford. We only want to concentrate on one aspect only. We all know that China is still a developing country. For a student from a country where the average income is much lower than that in Britain, how does he or she finance their studies? First we would like to introduce Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang, how do you manage to finance your studies? Mrs. Wang: I do not have to work and can completely concentrate on my studies. I belong to the lucky ones that were chosen by our working unit back home in China to apply for a government scholarship. Students like me are mostly older. Most of us already finished our university studies in China before coming to Britain for research work or for continued professional training. I am a physicist and does some research on plasma-physics. My government pays me 1000 pounds each month. With this money I finance my expenses. I will stay for one year in Oxford and will then return to my former Chinese institute in Shanghai. Delia Robinson: Thank you very much, Mrs. Wang. Next we want to introduce Mr. Zhu. He was provided with a scholarship from the British Council. Unlike Mrs. Wang, He had to pass the IELTS (International English Language Testing System), since he wanted to graduate in Oxford. Before coming to Britain he had already taken part in a one-year IELTS preparation course in Xi'an, his hometown. He is now supported with 1200 pounds each month. 从对话开头 "It's 18:30 GMT and welcome to BBC's Overseas Students at British Universities. I'm Delia Robinson."可推知选项C正确。
