"The above said that this controversy is relatively big, first to see the relatively unified opinions of the academic community before implementation, the leader said that education is a hundred years of foundation, any major changes need to be cautious, your Chinese character simplification plan has to wait for the time being." The Grand Brigade Commander, who rushed to the front, came back with some frustration, obviously not expecting that this great thing would not be supported.

"Brigade commander, this matter is not urgent, education matters must indeed be long-term, not in a hurry." Gao Jianwu was also a little disappointed, but this result was also something he expected.

The fact that there are more people in the cultural circles who criticize this plan than those who support it shows that the old-fashioned traditionalists are still the main force on this issue.

Even within the Eight Roads, it is estimated that there are many people who adhere to the tradition.

"How can I not be in a hurry, this is obviously a good way to reduce illiteracy in our country. At the time they were arguing, we might have wiped out more than half of the illiteracy. The Grand Brigade Commander swept away his usual mild-mannered demeanor and looked a little indignant.

"I'm almost halfway through this thing, and the difficulty of learning is much smaller than when I was enlightened, and if I want to see it, this simplified word scheme is even an illiterate, and I can almost learn commonly used words after learning more than 100 hours.

No, we can't just sit and do nothing. They didn't agree, so we started secretly doing it ourselves. "The more the brigade commander talks, the more he can't sit still, he is a very assertive person, once he makes up his mind about many things, he dares to think and dare to do!

Thinking of this, the brigade commander stared at Gao Jianwu with blazing eyes, "Let's do it first, this teacher, you do it first, how about training our first batch of simplified character teachers?" ”

"It's okay for me to be this teacher, but is it really okay to do this? The above things are inconclusive now, do we secretly do it as a violation of the policy of the above? Gao Jianwu hesitated.

"We are working in our own one-third of an acre, so we will treat it as a pilot. Give it a try and it's not a big deal. If it doesn't work, the impact won't be great. The Grand Brigade Commander waved his hand and settled the matter.

With the active support of the brigade commander, Gao Jianwu's first simplified character training class was quickly set up. But.

First of all, he took out the simplified characters completely, and made a concise dictionary of simplified and traditional Chinese characters separately, and let 200 mimeographed copies come out as the first batch of student manuals.

This is a simplified character manual that is directly mimeographed with Gao Jianwu's handwriting, fortunately, Gao Jianwu's handwritten font is quite neat, about 100 words on each page, more than 30 pages of Gao Jianwu's simplified words are all printed on it, as for pinyin, there are 2 pages of appendix at the back.

The first generation of high-level simplified Chinese character textbooks came out in this way, which seems to be a bit sloppy.

The brigade commander brought in a few school teachers close to the base area, gathered about 100 teachers, and then selected the brigade headquarters and a section of soldiers who were illiterate and uneducated, a total of more than 150 people, and found a courtyard in the base area headquarters to open the first training course on simplified characters.

Those illiterate people who are uneducated, of course, the brigade commander jumped out to do experiments, see if they go to school with this training class, and wait until Gao Jianwu finishes teaching, what kind of level is it, do a comparative test, what is rare, the brigade commander said that he will often come to listen to lectures when he has time, and think about these simplified characters created by Gao Jianwu to learn everything.

Day 1.

Gao Jianwu stood in front of the first row of blackboards in the courtyard, looking at the black pressure of more than a hundred people below, except for a few people, most of them looked at him a little blankly.

When they were recruited, they were just told that they were here to study, and when they came, one of them handed out a concise dictionary in simplified and traditional Chinese, and they were all a little dumbfounded.

Seeing Gao Jianwu, even if some people don't know him, but there are more people who know Gao Jianwu, and soon the audience knows that today's teacher is Gao Jianwu.

So sitting on the little Mazha one by one looks very energetic, no matter what Gao Jianwu says, this is a rare experience.

In the first class, the brigade commander also found a small Mazha to sit in the front position, looking at Gao Jianwu with a smile, he was not ready to start the class to speak, so he directly handed it over to Gao Jianwu to deal with it himself.

Gao Jianwu looked at the big brigade commander with a bit of a joke, shook his head slightly, and cleared his throat.

"Comrades, from today onwards, I will tell you what pinyin spelling is, as well as simplifying the spelling of Chinese characters."

"First of all, let's take a look at this word, Yi-Yi, we look at the previous word, which is what I call the simplified Chinese characters, the instrument of the instrument, we see that compared with the traditional Yi, the new simplified word greatly reduces the number of writing pens, for beginners, it should greatly reduce the difficulty of learning, this is the simplification of Chinese characters.

The new simplified Chinese characters, I call them simplified characters, and the traditional Chinese characters, I call them traditional characters. ”

Gao Jianwu briefly talked about the origin of simplified characters.

The illiterate soldiers in the courtyard didn't feel anything, but when the teachers heard it, their brains were about to explode.

"Minister Gao, what you told us today is the simplified Chinese characters that are controversial in the press?" A teacher asked tremblingly, in fact, when he got the concise dictionary in simplified and traditional Chinese, he had questions and guesses, and at this moment, he listened to Gao Jianwu's opening and righteousness, and finally confirmed it.

This is the biggest thing in the cultural circles at present, although the base is not very well-informed, but most of the newspapers and periodicals a week ago are still available, so many teachers have also learned about this dispute, but because the publications announced by the specific plan are not necessarily visible, what they see are some parts, and there is not as complete as Gao Jianwu.

"Yes, starting today, we are going to learn this simplified word." Gao Jianwu didn't hide it.

"As we learned, we gave feedback on what simplifications in the scheme were clearly inappropriate. Next, let's start by learning pinyin phonics."

The teachers at the bottom confirmed what they were going to do, and they were all a little excited, and among these people, there were actually some teachers who did not agree with the alienation of Chinese characters, especially those older teachers who were born in private schools.

It's just that everyone in the base area is relatively disciplined, and the brigade commander is still sitting on the side, even if the teacher who has opposition in his heart does not jump out to oppose it because of this commotion.

Gao Jianwu didn't care what they thought, he followed the rhythm, began to teach everyone pinyin, he had to use one day to pull through all the pinyin to teach all the time, and the traditional kindergarten and primary school learning is completely different.

In Gao Jianwu's view, it is enough for you to have a general understanding of pinyin one day, and you don't need to master it immediately to move on to the next step.

Because the phonics of pinyin will be used repeatedly in the next course, you can learn to read more than 3,000 simplified Chinese characters, and the pinyin side is naturally almost ripe.

Pinyin rules are simple, relatively speaking, the number is also small, compared with Gao Jianwu's pronunciation marked with Chinese characters, many teachers read several times under the drive of Gao Jianwu, and soon have some feelings about the pronunciation of these initials and finals, and younger people can already follow the Chinese characters to learn all the pronunciation.

This wonderful experience made the older teachers also feel a little touched, they feel that using Gao Jianwu's method to spell out phonics seems to be much simpler than the traditional reverse cut spelling, at least it seems that the rules are much simpler.

Regardless of whether they have a foundation in English or not, this step is not too difficult for most people who are literate themselves, Gao Jianwu uses simplified and traditional Chinese to mark the pronunciation at the same time, which makes it very convenient for the teachers below to master the pronunciation of pinyin initials and finals, and at the same time, they also have an intuitive impression of these more than 20 simplified Chinese characters.

"Jianwu,I finally figured it out,Your phonics,The so-called initials are placed in the front,The finals are placed in the back,wo me,Ni you,ta him,The two of them are connected to spelling catchy,It's really a good marking method,It's stronger than the traditional method,Today I feel like I've benefited a lot from listening to this day.,The basic way of your phonics is clear.。 In fact, I was able to learn the simplified Chinese characters myself, just by memorizing their glyphs. When the course was over for the day, the Grand Brigadier was a little excited.

The brigade commander is already talented, there is no difficulty in learning this thing at all, and he mastered the essence of Gao Jianwu's pinyin in one day, even if he can't remember the combination of initials and finals, but on paper, the brigade commander can already try to spell any word.

The brigade commander is like this, for the teachers who have their own cultural skills and the staff officers of the brigade headquarters in the base area, everyone is almost the same, most of them have basically mastered the pronunciation and phonics rules of pinyin, and now looking at the textbook, you can completely read the initials and finals of pinyin.

As for the illiterate warriors, although they didn't have any foundation, but looking at the things taught by Gao Jianwu, they forced them to memorize the pronunciation one by one, and they couldn't recognize even the words marked with pronunciation, but they relied on rote memorization, and now they can read more than a dozen initials and finals with their powerful tactics.

The progress is not bad, but of course it can't be compared with that group of educated teachers.

Since it was a comparison, Gao Jianwu did not stop to wait for the illiterate soldiers, and at his own pace, he began to go directly to the main topic the next day, and began to train in phonics and writing of the 100 simplified Chinese characters on the first page.

On a blackboard, Gao Jianwu used chalk to neatly write out a hundred words, marked pinyin and traditional characters, one by one phonics taught to the students below, he stood in front of the blackboard in front of the courtyard to speak, the students took a branch on the ground to write, each simplified Chinese character with ten minutes of continuous repeating phonics and writing training, all the words on a page of paper were said, the course of the day was over.

Phonics will be pinyin rules and pronunciation again repeated,Yesterday also on the pinyin vowel rhyme bump the teacher,Today's end,The pronunciation of this piece can all be passed,It is as the illiterate group against the opposite,Today a day,I am also familiar with the reading of several initials。

As for simplifying the writing memory, the difference between the teacher group and the soldier illiteracy group was opened up at once, but this is normal, the illiterate who have never written any words, have no concept of strokes, but under Gao Jianwu's hand-in-hand demonstration, even if it is the illiterate group, they have learned to write at least ten words.

And after class, the soldiers of the illiterate group spontaneously stayed to study, and they didn't just ask the people around them or the teachers who trained together, they were hungry for learning, and they didn't think that these things taught by Gao Jianwu now have no official promotion instructions at all.

The next day, when Gao Jianwu heard that the illiterate control group could pronounce the words spoken the day before relatively standardly, Gao Jianwu was a little moved.

To be honest, in order to obtain a real data comparison, he insisted on teaching the teachers and the control group together without discrimination, just to see how difficult it is for illiterate people to learn simplified words in this era.

Whether or not we can comprehensively extend this to the entire base area, or even to other base areas, is not simply a matter of empty rhetoric, but it is necessary to see the real results of actual combat.

The course went on day by day, more than a month later, and when the more than 3,000 simplified Chinese characters created by Gao Jianwu were learned, in terms of pinyin, even the soldiers of the illiterate group were familiar with it one by one, and there was no need to turn the content of the page of the dictionary pinyin, as for the teachers, they could already train others one by one!

"Minister Gao, the old man is old, this simplified Chinese character seems to have lost a lot of radicals of traditional Chinese characters, but we can still see the inheritance of traditional Chinese characters, so as not to cause the danger of breaking the roots of our culture." An elderly teacher who had been talented in the old era said with emotion.

"Based on our experience of learning more than 3,000 simplified Chinese characters, we can learn and learn in about a month, and we can read and write, which is basically equivalent to the cultural level of Chinese language after graduating from high school, which is quite powerful.

Before the training, Lao Yu was not immune to the influence of those old schools, who thought that some of the dictionaries had forgotten their ancestors and cut off the traditional cultural bloodline. But I would say that if most people are illiterate, this traditional culture is almost the same.

With this simplified Chinese characters that are easy to learn and literacy for all people, our culture can truly be passed on from generation to generation.

With Minister Gao's simplified Chinese characters and pinyin, most people will basically learn more than 1,000 commonly used words in a month's time, and they will also learn the phonics method of pinyin, and then learn more words by themselves.

Therefore, it is a great thing to promote simplified words as soon as possible and benefit the future. ”

Seeing that the most stubborn old gentlemen all agreed with Gao Jianwu's simplified character plan, the brigade commander was relieved, and this pilot project he carried out against the wind can be regarded as a complete merit today.

Even the fighters of the illiterate control group had learned at least a thousand words and could read the press.

The smarter warriors, on the other hand, have almost known nearly 2,000 words, and although they are unsatisfactory in terms of writing and the writing is a little sloppy, they can be regarded as free from illiteracy and can write relatively simple letters.

This is an important reason for the great change in the attitude of teachers.
