The level of Putonghua in China is divided into three levels and six levels, that is, one, two and three levels, and each level is divided into two levels, A and B. According to this classification, A is the highest and B is the lowest. Since we entered the school, the school has taught us Mandarin, so most people can speak Mandarin, but the level they can reach is not exactly the same.

Although each of us can speak Mandarin, we still have to take the Putonghua exam during college, mainly for the following reasons:

1. Some industries or posts have strict requirements on the level of Putonghua. For example, students majoring in normal schools and vocational schools at all levels who are closely related to oral expression have a Putonghua level of not less than Grade 2. The national civil servants' Putonghua level is not lower than that of the third-class and first-class personnel (telephone operators, announcers, etc.). ) in the public service industry, the specific position is not lower than the second level. There are also some industries and posts that require the level of Putonghua, so I won't list them here.

2. It's always right to take more certificates during college. Compared with the off-campus environment, the university environment is more pure, and the primary task during the university period is to study. Under the influence of the surrounding environment, you can also calm down and study. As the saying goes, more skills will not drag you down. Hard work during college is to improve my ability and pave the way for finding a job in the future. Take more certificates and learn more skills when you have time, and sometimes you will get more opportunities than others.

Some people may think that no one can speak Mandarin, and it is not too difficult to take a Mandarin exam. It is not too late to take another exam after work. I think this idea is wrong. Because there will be a lot of trivial things that take up insufficient time after work, and the desire to study after work is not as strong as that at school, opportunities are often reserved for those who are prepared.

As for how to prepare for the Putonghua exam, this question varies from person to person. For those whose Mandarin is not very standard, we must speak more and practice more, speak out loudly, and don't think too much of it in others' eyes. There are some apps for training Mandarin, which can be downloaded and used if necessary, but those paid functions are not recommended, because a lot of content can be found online. There is a "Mandarin Learning Network" here. There are some materials on this website.
