It's just that English was not taken as their foreign language test in the college entrance examination. Students who take Japanese in the college entrance examination are equal in the low position, but the first foreign language is different.

The first foreign language is different from sports and art candidates, who have low scores and low requirements and are equivalent to a skill. Students who take Japanese exams have the same college entrance examination scores as ordinary students.

But Japanese is difficult to learn, so we should consider clearly that Japanese is a small language.

People's Daily Online: Who said that the college entrance examination can only test English?

20 17 Zhejiang new college entrance examination, three compulsory subjects are Chinese, mathematics and foreign languages. Many candidates and parents mistakenly think that a foreign language is English, but it is not. There are also small languages such as Japanese in the college entrance examination language.

Last week, the media published "Will you take the college entrance examination in Japanese in the future? , caused great repercussions. On the day when the newspaper was published, an enthusiastic reader, Mr. Zhan, called and said that his son Sean Xiao was the beneficiary of the small language in the college entrance examination-because his English was not very good, he changed to Japanese, and the result was obvious. He has just received the admission notice from Zhejiang Sci-Tech University.

Mr. Zhan is from Hangzhou. He told reporters that his son Zhan Sheng took the college entrance examination this year. Different from most college entrance examination students, the station took Japanese instead of English and got 105 (full mark 150).

"Our family is very satisfied with our son's foreign language performance." He said frankly, "Because my son's previous English performance was too poor, fortunately, he changed to Japanese and made up the weak subject of foreign languages. He was successfully admitted to his favorite university this year."

According to Zhan's father, it was in Sean Xiao's second year of high school that he learned that Japanese could be tested in the college entrance examination. "It's what my son learned." Zhan's father recalled, "He offered to start learning Japanese systematically, hoping to improve the total score of the college entrance examination." At that time, the family also had concerns. After learning English for so many years, there is no improvement, so there are less than two years left to learn Japanese. Will it be too late?

But in the end, the whole family expressed their support, and it would be good to take a walk in another way. Since you can choose your own subjects, there is no need to use English as a foreign language. Unexpectedly, the station successfully learned Japanese, which made everyone cheerful and confident.

Yesterday (August 6) afternoon, the reporter contacted Zhan Sheng, who was on a graduation trip in Chengdu, to verify the matter. "That's true." Sean Xiao said, "Because my English is poor, I have no confidence. On the 150 paper, my score has been hovering between 60 and 70.

So I thought, why not learn Japanese? According to the station, after switching to Japanese, his foreign language subjects improved by about 40 points, which really achieved a counterattack.

Why has English not improved after so many years, and Japanese has only been two years? Sean Xiao analyzed that learning English requires memorizing words, but Japanese doesn't. Many Japanese words are evolved from Chinese characters, and the basic knowledge can be mastered in a short time.

In the college entrance examination, English and Japanese have different types of questions. There are only two kinds of questions in the Japanese college entrance examination, 30 points are composition questions, and 120 points are multiple-choice questions. English paper questions are more complicated.

Teacher Park Yinghai, who graduated from Waseda University in Japan and has been engaged in Japanese education for ten years, feels the same way: "I think Japanese is more suitable for China people to learn among these small languages in the college entrance examination. To give a very simple example, half of the2,000 words that need to be mastered in the Japanese college entrance examination are' Chinese characters'. "

Sean Xiao's first advice to junior students who plan to take the college entrance examination in Japanese is: It's best to start studying in senior one, or earlier. "Senior two began to learn Japanese, but there is still some pressure, mainly because the study time is tight, or there is no foundation." He mainly used weekends to learn Japanese, but in the last stage of senior three, he became a day student.

His second suggestion is that there are very few institutions specializing in the Japanese college entrance examination, so you should be careful when choosing.
