>Dropout excels in gaokao
湖北状元曾被北大劝退

A dropout from prestigious Peking University has beaten all other science students in his home province of Hubei in this year's gaokao, the national college entrance examination, with his story going viral online. Chang Shujie, who scored 712 out of 750 points this year, was enrolled by Peking University in 2015 with a similarly staggering 690 points.
在今年的高考中，曾从知名学府北京大学中途退学的常书杰以712分(满分750分)的成绩成为其家乡所在省份湖北省的理科状元，其经历走红网络。2015年，常书杰曾以690分的高分被北大录取。

As a junior student in the university, Chang was persuaded to drop out for failing too many subjects after excessively indulging in computer games, according to sources.
据知情人士介绍，大三时常书杰因过度沉迷于电脑游戏，导致太多学科成绩不及格，被北大劝退。

Chang's case sparked heated discussions online. On Sina Weibo, many people were amazed at his talents, while some wished he would study harder this time at university.
常书杰的情况在网上引发热议。许多人在新浪微博上称赞他有才，还有人希望这次他在大学里能更努力地学习。

Some netizens also expressed appreciation for efforts by Chinese universities to maintain high quality by persuading failing students to quit, instead of operating in a mode where it's "hard to get enrolled, but easy to graduate".
部分网友还对国内高校通过劝退差生而非以"严进宽出"的模式办学，以保证学校较高品质的做法表示赞赏。

>FedEx sues US government
联邦快递起诉美商务部

US delivery company FedEx has filed a lawsuit against the US government, arguing that it should not be required to enforce federal government export bans.
美国快递公司联邦快递近日对美国政府提起诉讼，称后者不该要求联邦快递执行联邦政府的出口禁令。

The move comes after FedEx mishandled a couple of deliveries for Huawei, and failed to deliver a Huawei smartphone shipped from Britain to the US.
联邦快递此前已数次"错运"华为的包裹，且未能将一部华为智能手机从英国寄往美国。

FedEx said in a statement Monday that the US Export Administration Regulations "violate common carriers' rights" by making delivery companies liable for shipments that may violate US restrictions. "FedEx is a transportation company, not a law enforcement agency," the statement said.
联邦快递24日在声明中表示，美国的《出口管理条例》要求快递企业对可能违反限制令的货物负责，这一点侵犯了公共承运人的权利，"联邦快递是一家运输公司，不是执法机构。"

The regulations "essentially deputize FedEx to police the contents of the millions of packages it ships daily even though doing so is a virtually impossible task, logistically, economically, and in many cases, legally," the company said in its lawsuit.
联邦快递在诉讼中表示，限制令其实是在迫使该公司审查每日递送的数百万件包裹，无论从物流成本还是经济角度来说，这几乎都是不可能完成的任务，在许多情况下这也是不合法的。
