English, since I went to school, has become an indispensable subject in my study, occupying part of my study time, oral and written language; Primary English and junior high school English college entrance examination accounted for 65,438+020 points, and senior high school English college entrance examination accounted for 65,438+050 points, CET-4 and CET-6, TOEFL, IELTS and so on. It occupies an important position in our life. Some people even attend bilingual schools since childhood and pay attention to oral English training since childhood in order to get better results in the college entrance examination. However, there is a serious phenomenon in education in China, that is, the examination of "written English and written language". Just to cope with the exam, I learn English well and write English well, but in practical application, I really can't do it. My pronunciation is not standard, and the phenomenon of only writing but not speaking is very serious. Since it can't help us solve practical problems in life, is it worthwhile to waste a lot of study time learning English? Wouldn't it be nice if we spent our time studying English learning a major or learning China's profound and long-standing Chinese characters? Don't people in China think he smells good?

This reminds me of what Zheng Qiang, a professor at Zhejiang University, once said, "Kick English out of the college entrance examination". Professor Zheng Qiang's speech on English education made learning English a hot topic on the Internet at that time. Major bloggers, online celebrities and professors have expounded their views one after another, and even there has been a false statement that "Professor Zheng Qiang of Zhejiang University called for kicking English out of the college entrance examination". Professor Zheng Qiang once said in his speech: He thinks most students waste a lot of time in learning English. He thinks this behavior is wrong. English is only a language used to communicate with people, but today English does occupy a lot of our limited time. This sentence caused an uproar, and the discussants expressed their opinions: should we study English too much? On the Internet, there are various rumors and netizens contend. There are two views, learning English and kicking English out of the college entrance examination, and there are endless arguments and arguments. This shows that it is true that China people spend a lot of time learning English, which has aroused the nerves of many parents, children and students.

My personal opinion is that spending a lot of time learning English has both advantages and disadvantages; On the one hand, in the long run, English, as one of the world's common languages, is necessary to learn whether it is for working, going abroad for exchanges or receiving foreign guests; Engaged in scientific research, researchers share their research results, publish papers and publish them in various international journals, such as English "SCI" articles, which will be accepted. We need English to learn foreign culture, so English is actually a very important aspect. The development of China is inseparable from the exchange and learning of advanced things from other countries. The disadvantage is that in most ordinary people's lives, English is rarely used in life, and sometimes it is hardly used. English puzzles people's lives and is a nightmare for students who don't like learning. It is useless to cope with the exam, but it takes up a lot of children's study time. So in my opinion, we should learn more profound English according to our own interests. People who are not interested can learn about the history of the country, increase their knowledge, cultivate their own advantages and have more choices through these experiences.
