This article tries to explain that in 1980-1990 China announced reforms to improve Higher Education. The question then was whether American branches could be effectively grafted on a Soviet tree planted in a Chinese garden (Pepper, S. 1990. China's Education Reform. Berkeley). We will try to demonstrate that in 2023 that China succeeded in implanting Western HE successfully in its education system. Why so many Chinese students study in the United States. In 2003 only 57,717 HE international students studied in China. During the 2020-21 school year, 317,299 Chinese nationals enrolled in US institutions, represented about a third of all international students studying in the USA. For these Chinese students—mostly in maths, computer science and engineering—the most important was to get an “American degree” (SCMP 15.11.2022). An important question in 2021-2022 is the worst recession since the Great Depression caused by the pandemic Covid-19 which perturbated also education and the number of Chinese students studying in America. Chinese students in the US, in particular, found themselves vulnerable. The USA, Australia, and the UK are the most popular destinations, receiving 33 percent of China’s HE international students. In the first six months of 2022, the US issued 31,055 F-1 visas to Chinese nationals, down from 64,261 for the same period in 2019, consequently the number of Chinese HE students going abroad is at present falling sharply. A main reason is China’s economy which appears to slow down in 2022.

This article will explore the related theory of individualization, and explain Individual accounts of student mobility are stories of ‘individualisation’ and ‘do-it yourself’ biographies from 3 aspects, such as academic benefits, career benefits and self-cognition and social adaptability. It also proposes and explains the other two different dimensions of student mobility, which is socio-economic level and political level, in order to prove the experiences of international student mobility have the potential to be more than 'stories' of individual gains. It illustrates socio-economic level from 3 aspects: labour market, economic mobility and the social conflict and integration, and explains political level in 2 ways European citizen and European consciousness and neo-liberalism and socio-democratic traditions.

Under the background of the new curriculum reform, the English teaching form has been deepened, and many new English teaching methods have emerged. Among them, immersive English teaching is the most representative. Immersive English teaching advocates changing the monotonous atmosphere in the original classroom, using appropriate methods to cultivate students' interest in learning, improve students' enthusiasm for English learning, and improve learning efficiency. However, as a relatively independent individual college student, every-one has different ideas and ideas, they have different learning attitudes towards themselves, and they also have different learning methods, so how to achieve individual differences? This has become a key research topic for teachers. On this basis, we will explore and analyze the development of immersive English teaching, clarify the existing teaching difficulties, put forward substantive optimization programs, provide reference for teachers, implement a new teaching mode, and continue to make efforts for the educational cause of our country.

It has been controversial as to whether there exist finite and nonfinite distinctions in Chinese. The current research systematically reviewed the theoretical development of finiteness and listed the representative ideas of Chinese finiteness from the perspective of generative, cognitive and functional approaches. The analysis of Chinese finite and non-finite verbs has the characteristics that it develops with the linguistic theories, whereas neglects the unique features of Chinese itself. As an isolating language, Chinese lacks inflectional morphology and tense, so it relies heavily on semantics, pragmatics, information structure, and discourse. Based on the conventional division between morphology and syntax, it is difficult to determine with clarity whether or not finiteness exists in Chinese, even though many researchers have addressed this question. Though some lin-guists have noticed the importance of explaining finiteness from semantic perspective, a more systematic interpretation is in need in the future studies in this field.

In the new era, the grass-roots party organizations in colleges and universities have encountered new situations and new challenges. The young students and student party members it guides are primarily “the post-00s generation”. The spirit of the 20th CPC National Congress and the thought of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era provide theoretical connotation for the political construction of grass-roots party organizations in colleges and universities. The grass-roots student party organizations in colleges and universities should widely carry out the penetrating education of political theory learning, promote the construction of learning party organizations, enhance the political consciousness of student party branches, and better play the role of fighting fortress through the study and preaching of important theories such as the spirit of the 20th National Congress.

With the rapid development of my country's economy and society, the demand for high-level application-oriented professionals in all walks of life is growing. However, there are many quality problems in postgraduate dissertations when inspecting by Ministry of Education and other departments. It is imperative to strengthen the whole-process management of professional dissertation quality and improve the training quality of full-time professional degree postgraduates. This paper first analyzes the current situation of the quality management of professional master's thesis, then sorts out the experience of domestic and foreign universities' master's thesis quality management, and finally proposes a comprehensive professional master's degree thesis from the aspects of training plan, supervisor selection, supervision and management, system guarantee, etc. The quality management improvement suggestions provide useful reference for improving the quality of professional master's training and promoting the construction and development of degree authorization points.
