I. Read the text “the origins of the civil service system” and answer the questions.

When the United States began to establish its civil service system in the 19th century, it had a long history upon which to draw. Historians believe that public government officials — civil servants — date back to the early civilizations of the Middle East. The longest stable civil service in history, however, first developed in China.

China's civil service established and elaborated the world's greatest system of hiring personnel on competitive basis. The idea to merit rating for promotions, which is a characteristic of modern civil service systems, also originated within the Chinese system.

The basic characteristic of China's civil service system was an educated and honest bureaucracy. Candidates were tested not only on their grasp of specific topics of government but also on their knowledge of history, literature, poetry, and art. Frequently, only 1 out of every 100 candidates passed the examinations and won a position. Every several years thereafter, officeholders were tested again. The results, along with periodic merit ratings based on job performance, determined whether they received a promotion, retained their present level, or were dismissed.

Some type of civil service examinations became an accepted practice in many later civil systems. Today the civil service in the United States shares some of the characteristics common to the systems of China, Great Britain, and some other European nations. In particular, they share the concepts of examinations for appointment and promotions based on merit. At the same time, the United States civil service maintains individual characteristics based on the American system of government and values.

1. Where does civil service originate from?

2. How were the candidates for the Chinese civil service selected?

3.What characteristics are shared by the American, European and Chinese сivil systems?
