Chapter 2410 English Reform Is Coming!
.,!
After the weekend was over, a big event that the students all over Huaxia were looking forward to finally came.
The Ministry of Education has formally reformed the curriculum system. Starting today, the compulsory English course will be completely abolished!
English has completely collapsed from the compulsory courses and is included in the elective courses.
This move has caused a sensation in the education circles all over the world. This is a very important and historic change!
Since the resumption of the college entrance examination in 1977, English has become a compulsory subject in Huaxia Education.
At that time, the gap between China and Western countries was too great. We studied with an open mind, so we included English as a compulsory course.
After a lapse of 44 years, English was pulled down from the altar.
After so many years of educational experience and China's growing strength, everyone gradually discovered that foreign languages are not useful.
Ninety-five percent of children will not be able to use English when they grow up, and even if they learn well in school, they will soon forget it after work.
Unless you are working in English, or going abroad, this subject is useless at all.
How many children with good grades cannot get into a good university because of the partial English subject.
How many students have put a lot of effort into the subject of English and memorized it by rote for more than ten years, only to find out that this thing is useless at all.
And people who really need English will also find that what the school learns is basically two concepts for their needs.
Foreign languages should indeed be learned, but far from necessary.
The Ministry of Education explained the details of this education reform in detail.
For example, in universities, English has become an elective subject, and students can choose whether they want to learn it or not.
In the third grade of junior high school, English still needs to be learned.
But it did not say to delete the subject of English, but to classify it as an elective subject, similar to history, ideology and morality, biology and other subjects.
There are scores, but only at the same level as other minor subjects.
Don't look at it as if it hasn't changed much, but the changes to the students are definitely earth-shaking.
This means that the importance of English in the hearts of children has been greatly reduced.
For example, Chinese, Mathematics and English used to be 150 points, and other subjects such as history, ideology and morality were all 100 points, and in some places it was only 70 points.
Students have to spend the most important time on Chinese, Mathematics and English, and they can understand both Chinese and mathematics.
Chinese is everyone's mother tongue, and it is necessary and necessary to learn it well.
Mathematics is the extension and progress of our thinking and logic, and it is the most effective subject for seeking truth.
There is nothing wrong with learning mathematics well.
But it is very tasteless to spend precious study time on a foreign language.
What is the use of learning it? It is neither your native language nor has anything to do with logical thinking, and it is rarely used in daily life.
English, that is a foreign language, it is of course beneficial to be able to master it, but without it, it will have no effect.
Especially for those who are not interested in it by nature, isn't it a waste of time if you force yourself to learn a subject that doesn't work.
With so much time, it is better to learn more physics and chemistry, and enter science, which may be useful in the future.
Well now, foreign language is no longer the main subject, but has become a sub-subject with 100 points and 70 points.
In this way, on the one hand, it ensures that everyone can also learn a foreign language, and on the other hand, it can be taken out of the focus of the students.
In the future, students who are poor in English don't have to worry about the big gap between their English and other students, and don't need to spend too much time on English.
Just learn some basics. Why are you so proficient in language studies? Do you want to communicate with ZT in the United States?
For those who want to work in the English industry or go abroad in the future, you can learn it, and no one will stop you.
As soon as this announcement came out, the whole of China was blown up.
It was said last year that reforms were needed, but most people did not believe it.
After all, the status of English in the hearts of Chinese people has been deeply ingrained. In the 44 years of study career, every student has experienced it.
Cancel it if you say cancel it? They don't believe it.
At that time, many people were scolding Jiang Siming, because he was the one who made this suggestion.
Everyone thought that Jiang Siming was just trying to please the public and grab people's attention.
It is also impossible for the Ministry of Education to really follow Jiang Siming's advice. How can they give up what they have learned for decades.
But now, the Ministry of Education is telling everyone with practical actions that they are playing for real.
It is to break everyone's traditional thinking, who speaks English is very important? Who said that if you don't learn English well, you're worthless?
At this moment, all these remarks have come to naught.
This statement itself is very strange and wrong.
But in the past, there were scores to support, and many people could only be forced to admit it.
But now, English has become a secondary subject, and a chicken is important!
Even students with poor English don't have to worry too much now, anyway, their scores are not high, as long as they work hard in other subjects, they can get their scores back.
In a certain high school classroom, early in the morning, when the genius was dim, some students came to the classroom and began to memorize.
"Let's memorize English today, I still have a lot of words to memorize."
"Why do you still memorize English? You don't have a school to speak it. From today on, English is only 100 points, just like history and politics."
"Yeah, still
Why do you memorize English? You only get 100 points. Even if you get a full score in the test, you won't be able to make much difference. "
"Haha, I finally don't have to memorize words every day~ It's just a nightmare!"
"Yeah, instead of working so hard to memorize vocabulary and grammar every day, I feel that I can spend more time memorizing other subjects, such as mathematical formulas, ancient poems, physical and chemical formulas, etc."
"Memorizing Chinese and Chinese is still fragrant~"
Apart from this high school, any other school is experiencing the same similar scenario.
The English texts on the children's desks were removed from the most conspicuous position and pressed down.
Many English materials are also shelved in the corner.
Those English test papers that were once very important to children were summarized into the test papers of political history, biology and other subjects.
Not the prettiest pup in the discipline anymore.
What is the subject-predicate-object definite complement, what nouns, articles, adjectives.
It is no longer something that everyone must learn.
The timetable is also updated with the latest weekly lessons.
There used to be seven or eight English classes per week, but now there are only three or four, and some schools have even less.
The workload of English teachers in many schools has dropped sharply.
There are even too many English teachers in many schools. The schools feel that there is no need to recruit so many English teachers, and they have resigned some of them.
And the English teacher who is still there is no longer qualified to go to the classroom every morning for self-study to let the children recite English words and grammar.
Or every night self-study requires children to do English test papers, and it is no longer possible to compete with physical education teachers, computer teachers, and music teachers for lessons.
Have you ever heard of history teachers or biology teachers occupying physical education and music classes?
