1366 English is a skill

Feng Yu finished talking to Principal Li and started chatting. www.biquge.info It happened that Dean Li said that many college students can't even pass the fourth level in English, and some universities have linked the fourth level to the graduation certificate, and the passing rate of the fourth level has increased significantly.

When he said this, Principal Li's expression seemed to think that this was a very good move. However, he saw a trace of disdain on Feng Yu's face.

"Why, it seems that you disagree with this?"

"No, I don't understand education." Although Feng Yu said this, the expression of disdain on his face was even worse.

He also heard Li Na say this, and this method was implemented by many colleges and universities in the previous life, but most of it was canceled later, because the boss also realized the problems inside.

"Is there anything else you Feng doesn't understand?" Principal Li deliberately teased.

"Since President Li said so, then I will say a little bit of my personal opinion, a little bit of superficial opinion, just for reference."

"What is English? The language originated from the United Kingdom is also the official language of many countries, and now the world's largest country, Mi Country, also uses this as the official language. But what this essence of English is, is a language. ”

"We are Chinese, our mother tongue is Chinese, I am very curious, our Chinese is not linked to the graduation certificate, and even most majors in the university do not need to learn Chinese, but need to learn English, and the fourth level is also linked to the graduation certificate."

"What does Level 4 prove? Prove that you know the language? Or is it proof that you know the words? If you know so many words, you can know what a sentence means. ”

Hearing Feng Yu's tone, President Li couldn't help but retort: "I remember that you went to our university, and you were escorted, right?" At that time you were fluent in Russian and English. If you demean English so much, why did you work so hard to learn it in high school? ”

"I don't mean to belittle English, which is now indeed the most widely spoken language in the world, because Britain was the strongest at sea and the Queen had too many colonies. Even now, there are countries like Canada, India, Australia and other countries that obey the Queen. ”

"I learned English because I used it. Language is a skill, a skill to survive and live. It can help people communicate and reduce communication barriers. I'm going to do business abroad, so I learned the language, which makes it easier for me to talk to my business partners about cooperation. ”

"But what about the rest of our students? How many of them can speak English? To put it mildly, more than ninety percent of people may not be able to use it in this life. Even those who have passed level 4 or even level 6, do you think they can really do listening, speaking, reading and writing? Can you communicate with people in English as easily as I do? ”

"I remember that many professors in our school don't know English either, right? It can even be said that they don't understand any foreign language, does this delay them from teaching and educating people? How much money do students spend to learn a language that they may not even use in their lifetime? Buying tutorial books, reference materials, reading English newspapers, listening to English radio, watching English movies and TV series, this brings another big problem. ”

Principal Li frowned and asked, "What's the problem?" ”

"The spread of ideas. They watch English movies and TV dramas, read English novels and newspapers, and accept most of the ideas of the West. For example, the personal heroism of the United States, the capitalism of the supremacy of money, etc., will deeply affect the thinking of many students. ”

"Why do many college students yearn to study abroad, is it really good to have an education outside? Why do they yearn for life abroad, and life abroad is really so beautiful? Because what is advertised in the media is the positive image of those countries, and those dark sides will not be exposed at all. ”

"Originally, many students were not interested in this at all, but in order to learn English, they were forced by some teachers and parents to read these materials, so they began to yearn for life abroad."

"For example, there is not much pressure to study, it is easy to get into college, there is not much pressure in life, you can find a job everywhere, everyone is equal, there are no corrupt officials and so on. These are very one-sided, or they are deliberately creating an illusion. ”

"In the United States, the university is really easy to enter, to put it mildly, we can be admitted to the junior college, in the United States can apply for college, because they also have many private universities, the entrance score requirements are very low, just pass. But that kind of university is not very easy to graduate, and after graduation, it is very likely that you will not be able to find a job, and many people in the United States do not go to that kind of university themselves. The youth crime rate in the United States is much higher than that in China. And there is a lot of corruption in the United States, just because they are two politicians and supervise each other, so it is not easy to be greedy too much. ”

"Nowadays, many so-called international students go to private universities, or the kind that can go to them by paying money, that is, they are specially gilded for us people from developing countries. How many of them do you think can be successful? Even many of the people who came back from the gilding are not fluent in the language. To put it bluntly, the key is to see if you work hard. ”

Principal Li said with some displeasure: "Listen to what you mean, it seems that English classes should be canceled?" ”

"Not really, as I said, it's also a skill. Just like a carpenter, who can see wood, cannot be called carpentry, can make furniture, is a carpenter, and can create more elaborate things, is the best. English can be learned, but you have to learn it, at least you can communicate with people, otherwise it is nothing more than a certificate, proving that the person has learned, learned and learned, the gap is too big! ”

"English is not needed by everyone, we haven't even learned Chinese well, what are we going to do when we learn English that we may not use in our lives?" Look at how many English training schools there are now, and after the level 4 is linked to the graduation certificate, the fees of those schools have become higher. Do the so-called foreign teachers invited by the school have the qualifications to be teachers? Have they learned how to teach? Is there a teacher? ”

"So I think it's ridiculous that a lot of elementary schools, even kindergartens, are learning English now. Even in our secondary schools, English is weighted too high in the same way as Chinese and mathematics. Do you think it's really good to equate English with our own mother tongue? ”

Principal Li lowered his head and fell into deep thought. It seems that what Feng Yu said also has some truth. There are also some scholars in China who say that English should not be taken too seriously, but their interpretation is not quite the same as Feng Yu's explanation.

This problem, it seems that we have to think about it, and when we go to the next education work conference, we should take it out to discuss, dignified China, parents pay more attention to their children's English scores, which is really too unusual!

Perhaps English should be regarded as a common subject, just like any other foreign language.
