Chinese men arrived in Australia in small numbers after the 1788 British settlement as free settlers and criminals. A small population grew rapidly after 1848 under a system of indentured（契約的）labour, after China had _41_ its ports to foreign trade in 1842. They worked in rural New South Wales as cooks, farm labourers and etc. Indentured Chinese _42_ worked in all colonies variously as station hands, plantation workers, miners, on public works, cabinet makers, personal servants and in laundries. Most came from the south-eastern provinces of Guangdong and Fujian. Due to labour _43_ in West Australia, the Colonial Government organized Chinese contract labour between 1847 and 1898, most working as labourers, cooks and gardeners. Many Chinese people came from rural backgrounds and brought with them _44_ and water management skills. By 1885, there were 54 Chinese market gardens in Sydney. By 1901, 67% of New South Wales market gardeners were Chinese. Gold rushes in Victoria in the 1850s and New South Wales in the 1860s significantly _45_ the population of Chinese immigrants in Australia; about 45,000 prospectors arrived in Victoria alone in 1854-58.

Tea rooms, importing and selling many varieties of tea, were very popular. Chinese silk was turned into _48_ evening wear and cloaks by Chinese tailors and seamstresses.

Through project-based learning, students not only master _63_ content, but also successfully apply content when solving authentic problems. _64_ -Based InternshipsNew Tech students also engage in experiences designed to prepare them for success in the contemporary workplace.

She was logical and precise, and impatient with things that were otherwise. She decided to become a scientist when she was 15. She passed the examination for admission to Cambridge University in 1938, and it sparked a family crisis. Although her family was well-to-do and had a tradition of public service and charity, her father disapproved of university education for women. He refused to pay. An aunt stepped in and said Franklin should go to school, and she would pay for it. Franklins mother also took her side until her father finally gave in. She was invited to Kings College in London to join a team of scientists. The leader of the team assigned her to work on DNA with a graduate student. Franklins assumption was that it was her own project. The laboratorys second-in-command, Maurice Wilkins, was on vacation at the time, and when he returned, their relationship was puzzling. He assumed she was to assist his work; she assumed shed be the only one working on DNA. They had powerful personality differences as well: Franklin direct, quick, decisive, and Wilkins shy, hesitant, and passive. In 1953, Wilkins changed the course of DNA history by disclosing, without Franklins permission, her Photo 51 to competing scientist James Watson, who was working on his own DNA model with Francis Crick at Cambridge. Upon seeing the photograph, Watson said, “My jaw fell open and my pulse began to race,” according to author Brenda Maddox who wrote the book Rosalind Franklin: The Dark Lady of DNA. The tw
