A college student was sentenced to 10 months for selling answers to the 2012 national graduate entrance exam's English test, on Tuesday in Nanjing, East China's Jiangsu province.
Yan Liang, a student from Nanjing University of Technology, in January posted on the Internet a composition that he "forecast" would appear in the English exam. Suspicions were aroused when people discovered that the forecasted composition was exactly correct.
Yan later confessed that he bought the answers from another netizen called Qibao for 1,500 yuan ($236) and resold them to four other people at 1,000 yuan each. Qibao, the female netizen, claimed that she collected the answers from some education websites and did not know they were real.
Yan said that he posted the answers on the Internet just to show off.
In a court in the city's Gulou district, he was convicted of illegally obtaining State secrets.
