The work of relieving enterprises of their obligation to operate social programs continued. Reform in the areas of public finance, tax, investment and pricing was deepened.

（四）加快发展各项社会事业。2005年中央财政用于科技、教育、卫生、文化等方面的支出1168亿元，比上年增长18.3%；投入国债建设资金95.4亿元。
4. Accelerating the development of social programs. The central government spent 116.8 billion yuan in 2005 on science and technology, education, health and culture, an increase of 18.3 percent over the previous year. In addition, 9.54 billion yuan from the sale of treasury bonds was spent on these items.
在科技方面，加强了国家创新体系、基础研究和基础设施建设。集成电路芯片设计开发、第三代移动通信、高性能复合材料、高档数控机床研制等重大科技专项取得重要进展。在国务院领导下，组织和动员各方面力量，经过两年多的深入研究和广泛论证，制定了《国家中长期科学和技术发展规划纲要》。
In science and technology, we improved the national innovation system and strengthened basic research and infrastructure development. Important progress was made in major R&D projects, including those to design and develop advanced integrated circuit chips, third-generation mobile communications, high-performance composite materials, and high-grade, digitally controlled machine tools. Under the leadership of the State Council, we formulated the Outline of the National Long- and Medium-Term Program for Scientific and Technological Development based on two years of in-depth research and extensive deliberation during which the views of all concerned parties were solicited.
在教育方面，重点加强了义务教育特别是农村义务教育。中央和地方财政安排专项资金70多亿元，对592个重点贫困县1700万名贫困家庭学生免除学杂费、免费提供教科书和补助寄宿生生活费，还为中西部地区1700多万名贫困家庭学生免费提供教科书，许多辍学儿童重新回到学校。继续实施西部地区“两基”攻坚计划。两年来新建、改建、扩建农村寄宿制学校2400多所，为16万个农村中小学校和教学点配备了远程教育设施。职业教育得到进一步加强。高等教育持续发展。
In education, we focused on strengthening compulsory education, especially in rural areas. Over 7 billion yuan was allocated by the central and local governments to pay tuition and miscellaneous fees, provide free textbooks, and subsidize room and board for 17 million students from poor families in 592 designated poverty-stricken counties. Free textbooks were also provided to over 17 million students from poor families in the central and western regions. As a result, many students who had dropped out of school were able to continue their studies. We continued to implement the plan to make nine-year compulsory education basically universal and to basically eliminate illiteracy among young and middle-aged adults in the western region. We built, renovated or expanded over 2,400 boarding schools in rural areas and provided distance learning equipment for 160,000 rural primary and secondary schools and learning centers over the past two years. Vocational education was further improved, and higher education continued to develop.
