Question by : How did you feel the AP World History exam 2010?
So, I took it Thursday morning, and I think that I hopefully passed. Multiple choice was relatively easy, except for a part in which there was a chart about agriculture and population in China. The DBQ was a FAILURE… for some reason, I just couldn’t understand the documents about the stupid cotton. The other two essays, however, went great, I could even add random details (Oh, and how bad do you think the dbq will affect me ?)

Transformative market reforms in China since the late 1970s have improved living standards dramatically, but have also led to unprecedented economic inequality. During this period, China’s educational system was restructured to support economic development, with educational reforms occurring at a startling pace. Today, the educational system has diversified in structure, finance, and content; it has become more market-oriented; and it is serving an increasingly diverse student population. The

Hong Kong -officially the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is one of the Special Administrative Regions of the People’s Republic of China. Consisting of a peninsula and 236 islands on China’s south coast and enclosed by the Pearl River Delta and South China Sea Hong Kong has developed into one of the world’s top financial centres It has a highly developed capitalist economy, and has a "high degree of autonomy" in all areas except foreign affairs and defence. Renowned for its expansive skyline and deep natural harbour, its identity as a cosmopolitan centre where east meets west is reflected in its cuisine, cinema, music and traditions.
Hong Kong was reclassified as a British dependent territory in 1983 until its sovereignty was transferred to the People’s Republic of China (PRC) in 1997. The city’s population is 95% Chinese and 5% from other ethnic groups At 1,104 km2 (426 sq mi) and a population of 7 million people, Hong Kong is the 179th largest habited territory in the world. It is also one of the most densely populated areas in the world. The land area consists primarily of Hong Kong Island, Lantau Island, Kowloon Peninsula and the New Territories as well as some 260 other islands.
As China has evolved into an industrial powerhouse over the past two decades, a new class of workers has developed: the dagongmei, or working girls. The dagongmei are women in their late teens and early twenties who move from rural areas to urban centers to work in factories. Because of state laws dictating that those born in the countryside cannot permanently leave their villages, and familial pressure for young women to marry by their late twenties, the dagongmei are transient labor. They unde
Shanghai is the largest city in China in terms of population and one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world, with over 20 million people. Located on China’s central eastern coast at the mouth of the Yangtze River, the city is administered as a municipality of the People’s Republic of China with province-level status.
August 2005 China’s controversial one child policy has stemmed population growth but at what cost? From forced abortions to heavy fines, many have suffered. “If people tried to have a second child and didn’t have any money, they’d have their house pulled down,” complains Liu Shuling. She attracted the wrath of local officials and was heavily fined when she became pregnant a second time. “It was very hard,” she recalls. “Fortunately, we didn’t starve to death.” For the past twenty-five years, controlling population growth has been a major priority for the Chinese government. “Unless there is a containment of population, there will be no economic growth, no social stability or social harmony,” explains official Siri Tellier. But there’s real concern that this policy has created a generation of spoilt children. “They are very delicate. They can’t cope with setbacks,” states teacher Sun Kaiyun. Demographic growth may have been stemmed but new population problems have been created. The preference for boys has led to millions of female foetuses being aborted. Now, tens of millions of Chinese men face a future with no prospect of a female partner. And that could create the social unrest the one child policy was supposed to avoid.
