"This is the real realization of the [college preparation] function of high school;"

"Therefore, you will find that in Western society, all those who come out of private high schools have a strong purpose in applying for colleges and majors, and after graduation, most of them will also engage in their own major-related work, and the employment fit of their graduates is much higher than that of our Huaxia;"

"In fact, our high schools in Huaxia basically teach all the knowledge points in the first two years, and the remaining year is just repeating the questions;"

"Perhaps, we can try to spend at least half a semester in the third year of high school, while reviewing the knowledge points, but also induce the students' real professional interests?"

"Here, insert a digression, I know that there are many stalks on the Internet that make fun of Westerners for not doing good mathematics, and they think that Chinese people are the first in mathematics in the world, and the basic disciplines are also the top in the world;"

"I don't deny that this is true,"

"However, it seems that we should explore the truth of Western education and learn the good things, rather than blindly one-sided;"

"Perhaps, they are not good in math or history or geography because they were assigned to orientation classes that have nothing to do with these contents during their middle school career?"

"You must know that those developed countries in the West have achieved a relatively extreme degree of talent segmentation, and there are naturally many drawbacks in this, but there is nothing worth learning and learning from!"

After listening to this, Lu Yu couldn't help but be a little impressed by this little girl, although she didn't know whether she had summed up this remark by herself, but her courage in saying it in front of the camera was worthy of admiration.

At the moment, holding the mentality that one sheep is also driving, and two sheep are also driving, thinking that since the topic is starting to be a little sensitive, it is better to be presumptuous, and asked: "Then Lan Yan, what do you think of the many current problems of Huaxia universities?"

Lan Yan recalled slightly, and then smiled bitterly:

"There are many problems in our universities, but the most important ones are two points;"

"First, after being kidnapped by real estate, the gradual industrialization of operations has seriously affected the teaching atmosphere of our Chinese universities;"

As soon as the words fell, I saw Lu Yu desperately glaring in private, and quickly paused,

Lu Yu on the side was in a cold sweat;

I thought, I want you to play freely, but grandma, can you not mention such a sensitive matter?

She naturally guessed what Lan Yan was going to talk about next, in fact, this topic has been faintly circulated in the academic circle, but it is related to the real estate industry, in order not to get involved in big trouble, it is better not to mention this matter!

After Lan Yan was interrupted, she was a little depressed, she was on the rise, this feeling of complaining and not being able to say it in her stomach was really uncomfortable, but as soon as she calmed down, she knew that Lu Yu was actually for her own good,

So I had to smile: "For the topic of Huaxia universities, there are too many questions, and the time is not enough, so I will only tell a small story." ”

After a pause, he took a sip of the mineral water that Lu Yu had intimately pushed over, and said in a slightly deep voice:

"Once upon a time, a small sloth and a little petrel lived on an isolated island,"

"The vegetation on the island is abundant and the environment is very good, there is never a big wind or rain;"

"The little sloth lazily hooked the leaves in his mouth all day long, and then the little petrel fluttered desperately all day long, and only when he was very tired did he pick up a few grass seeds in the grass to eat;"

"One day, the little sloth got impatient and asked the little petrel, what are you doing tossing and turning all day long on this island with so much food?"

The little petrel just looked at the little sloth with a sarcastic face, and without saying a word, continued to climb up the tree, and jumped down with a flutter down;

"Later ......"

"One winter, a thunderbolt struck and caused a raging fire on the island, and all the plants were burned clean."

"The sloth can only dig through the ground in desperation, to see if he can get lucky enough to dig up the grass roots that have not yet been burned, and then survive. ”

"The petrel, on the other hand, has already grown feathers, learned to fly, and at the moment of the fire, flies to the surface of the sea, gracefully and steadfastly in search of fish......

After listening to this, Lu Yu thought thoughtfully: "So Lan Yan, do you want to give a suggestion to the friends who are still in college, so that they can continue to improve themselves?"

Lan Yan nodded: "There are too many topics in college education, I can't repeat them one by one,"

"But I just want to say that as I have already talked about, learning is a process that runs through life,"

"Everyone is an adult, as long as you have the heart, it's never too late,"

"And learning is also the most worthwhile thing to invest in in this life;"

"Here, I just want to tell those friends who have been [The Uselessness of Reading] a set of data;"

"First,"

"Since the resumption of the college entrance examination in China, the number of people with higher education has exceeded 100 million,"

"However, compared to China's population of 1.4 billion, only 10% of people are highly educated,"

"Among the more than 100 million people with higher education, the number of people who have received undergraduate education accounts for less than 4% of the country's population, and the number of graduates of major universities such as 985/211 is even less than 1%;"

"We watch all kinds of news and film and television dramas all day long, and we always have the illusion that "bachelor's degree is not as good as a dog, and master's degree is all over the place", thinking that studying in college is really worthless;"

"However, what I want to tell you is that in the TV series we watch, they are basically filmed in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, and those who have the right to speak in public opinion are also in the media industry where the original elites gather,"

"These things are actually reflected because of the illusion brought to the audience by the urban talent siphon effect and the industry survivor bias;"

"In fact, only 10.3 million people in our country have taken the college entrance examination this year, and although the admission rate is high, the total number is only 8.2 million;"

"Of the 8.2 million people, about half of them can go to undergraduates, including 370,000 [double first-class] college students,"

"So ......"

"Even if we take the historical peak of 25 million freshmen in 1990 as a benchmark, and do a simple subtraction with this college student enrollment number,"

"You'll know,"

"As long as you can go to college, whether it's one or three, you can surpass nearly seventy percent of your peers!"

"So, those who have been admitted to colleges and universities, you don't need to despise yourself too much,"

"From the moment you received the college admission letter, you have stood on the starting line of the [quasi-elite], and the social recognition and universal resource grabbing ability have far surpassed other peers!"

"II."

"In our country, college graduates account for less than 10% of the total population,"

"Judging from the social development curve of the West, the argument that [college students are getting cheaper and cheaper] is just a pseudo view;"

"Take the United States, which has always been on par with our country and has a similar socio-economic curve for a certain period of time,"

"Between 1980 and 2000, the participation of their university students in the work force rose from 19 per cent to 25 per cent,"

"According to the theory just now, the proportion of college students in their country is much higher than in our country, and the depreciation of college students should be more serious, right?"

"But on the contrary, with the socio-economic upswing of these college students in the United States during that period, their income and the income of non-college students have increased from more than 36% in 1980 to more than 66% later;"

"If the situation in the United States is not entirely convincing, then the situation is highly similar when the sun continues to shrink the economy;"

"The proportion of college students who never set the sun has risen from the initial 5% to 17%,"

"Similarly, in their countries, the wage gap between college and non-university students has risen from 46% to 64%!"

Blue Smoke swept his mouth like a machine gun for a while, gasped slightly, and continued:

"According to the research of many Western scholars, in a city with sound economic function, starting from primary education, the wages of workers will increase by about 10% for every year of education for the population participating in the labor force."

"If the population with higher education increases by 1%, the average income of this group will increase by 0.7%~0.75%,"

"Even though our country's national conditions and current development curves are slightly different from those of Western countries, the overall trend should be broadly similar."

"So ......"

"Please do not take education lightly, and please do not give up on learning!"

"As long as you can insist on active learning, learn those knowledge related to your vision and profession;"

"Even if you're not doing well, your income will increase by at least 10 percent,"

"Until you reach an order of magnitude in your knowledge base and form a qualitative ...... that can achieve financial freedom"

After saying this, Lan Yan glanced at the time of the clock on the wall, and it was almost an hour, so he suppressed his desire to speak and closed his mouth and said no more.

And Lu Yu on the side was a little helpless, this can be regarded as one of the few moments when he couldn't interject since he became the host, right?

After the whole issue, except for the basic introduction at the beginning and the timely introduction of sensitive topics, it turned out to be a speech meeting for the little girl in front of me.

However, as an intellectual, she still enjoys this process.

At least compared to those bad things in the entertainment industry,

This kind of discussion with some connotations is much more interesting......

........................

PS: Answer a question from a book friend about the previous "traditional Chinese characters";

1. Simplified Chinese characters do help to improve literacy, after all, characters have become simpler, but as for how much help, the benevolent and the wise will see the wise;

But at least in my opinion, as a Chinese character based on pictograms and symbolism, as long as you learn the basic structure of the text and the logic of writing, the few strokes may not really have much meaning.

2. For you to say that traditional Chinese characters are so complicated, there is Confucianism for the privilege of scholars, and there is malice in it, to be honest, although I also have a lot of dissatisfaction with Confucianism, but you have really wronged others in this matter;

In fact, starting with oracle bones, the evolution of each font is actually subtracting, rather than deliberately making it complicated (if you have to use [Nüshu], which was obviously sexist at the beginning, as an example, when I didn't say it),

Of course, this subtraction is basically in the shape of the font, not in its structure - this is fundamentally different from the practice of simplified characters;

What I criticize the most is that simplified Chinese characters have cut most of the internal logic of Chinese characters, this problem is actually very serious, I have said in the book, words are a T0-level element of civilization, far more important than language;

3. Continuing from the previous topic, the reason why I emphasize the importance of traditional Chinese characters is because traditional Chinese characters are a combination of [form] and "meaning", with intuitive and simple logic - this is the real "first-level text"!

As we all know, science has long been determined: an image contains far more information than a set of words, and it is easier for the brain to receive the complete information;

Note that the "script" here refers to English by default, not traditional Chinese characters, and if you replace it with traditional Chinese characters, the logic is going to be problematic!

Why?

Because traditional Chinese characters, especially those represented by cursive and seal scripts, are a painting in themselves.

The so-called "familiar with 500 Tang poems, if you can't compose poems, you can chant", for a long time, under the influence of traditional Chinese characters with highly condensed elements of "aesthetics", "logic", "natural phenomena" and "human behavior", how much less work will we have to do to form these basic literacy?

Also, if you think about why international scholars agree that East Asians generally have higher IQs and more flexible thinking than people in other places, don't you think about what the "stressors" are?

4. Do a simple popular science, Confucianism has made a great contribution to the inheritance of words, remember how Mr. Shuren said that Kong Yiji's no? A "fennel" character has seven ways to write, everyone when they were children just thought this person was pedantic and funny, but in fact, we looked at the problem too biased, in the past, the most orthodox way to learn is to memorize the evolution of the interpretation of each Chinese character from beginning to end - because "for the venerable" Many Chinese characters have a certain meaning change or taboo in a certain period, but these things cannot be left in the book;

In ancient times, the so-called "literacy" was far from being as simple as being able to read and write, otherwise, with the ancient people's thirst for knowledge, and so many notices and inscriptions from the government, wouldn't those ordinary people practice according to them?

For a simple example, Mawangdui unearthed the "Silk Book Edition of the Tao Te Ching, the first book", subverting everyone's understanding of the Tao Te Ching, the beginning of the above is written "Tao Ke Dao, non-constant Dao", instead of the "Tao Ke Dao, very Dao" that we learned before;

There is also the content of chapter 40, our popular version is written ""generous and unlimited, big and late", while the second book of Mawangdui is written "generous and unlimited, and the big instrument is not successful", is the philosophy in the middle completely different?

So why is there such a big difference in between?

Although I don't know the reason why "Daqi is exempt" into "Daqi is a late bloomer", the reason for the change of "Extraordinary Dao" is very simple, the Tao Te Ching unearthed by Mawangdui is at least written before Liu Bang ascended the throne, and there was no "Emperor Heng of the Han Dynasty" at that time, so it did not happen because of the shame of His Holiness and replaced the word "Heng".

Therefore, we who lack the most orthodox writing inheritance training, now look at many ancient books, and are completely confused, all kinds of messy interpretations are floating everywhere, and we can't understand the true meaning of those classics at all.

If there really was a scholar at the level of a traditional Confucian, he would be able to explain these things to us very easily.

5. Finally, by extension, why did the Western society feel so close to the enemy when they heard that we were planning to develop our own programming code based on Chinese characters?

The reason is very simple, the independence of a single font of Chinese characters is too strong, but as long as the two words are combined, they can present a strange complete logic, which is far more convenient than the English code, but the amount of information contained is far more than the existing English code, this very subversive code law comes out, how do they mix?

Moreover, China has nearly 100,000 Chinese characters (yes, not more than 10,000 as you think), and if this set of things is used in places such as information encryption and national defense security, 99.999% of those foreign hackers and cyber security experts will be unemployed - if you want to really learn Chinese, it is impossible not to study in China for twenty or thirty years, where do they find these twenty or thirty years?

Moreover, the results of thousands of years of Chinese cultural penetration are written in the history books, and now that China's economic strength is becoming more and more terrifying, they dare to allow Chinese characters to become the real world language through various means?
