1. Knowledge and moral education are closely related to personal accomplishment.

Education is not only for the educated to acquire more cultural knowledge, but also for improving their personal qualities. Therefore, the education in China should not only pay attention to the teaching content, but also pay attention to the learners' study habits, the cultivation of learning attitude and the process of character formation.

At present, education in China is still dominated by one family. Therefore, students who leave school generally lack individuality and creativity. To change this situation, teachers should "teach students in accordance with their aptitude", establish the idea that learners are the main body of education, mobilize the enthusiasm and initiative of learners, and encourage students to play their individuality and creativity.
