High school graduates Liu Yanbing (right) and Yi Zhengyong from Yichun, Jiangxi Province, were unable to sit the national college entrance exam on June 7-8 due to injuries sustained on May 31 while trying to stop a man attacking passengers with a knife on a bus.
Liu suffered serious injuries to his back and head while trying to take the knife from the attacker. Yi suffered a wound on one hand.
Yichun Government has given "Good Samaritan" awards to both, and the provincial education department decided to organize a separate college entrance exam for them after they have recovered from their injuries.
More than 10 universities including the top Tsinghua University said that they would be interested in enrolling the two students. |
