Chinese and English are better or worse
The history of Chinese dates back dozens of centuries, and it is by far the most widely spoken language. Chinese characters are the only mainstream script that still retains traces of originality. The rich information content of the characters and the marvelous inclusion and transformation of the meanings of words and phrases are astonishing! As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the cultural connotations carried by the Chinese characters reached heights that are difficult to be surpassed by present-day people. Like Laozi, Mozi, Confucius, Sun Zi ------, the sages left behind the heirloom classics, the ancient and modern Chinese and foreign sages are still tirelessly researching and pondering.
Compared to the English language, there is nothing to be said about the glorious history of the people who have learned English know that those irregular changes in the English language are mostly the result of the role of "external forces". Those who are strong wedged into the "pegs", so that we learn English when adding a lot of difficulty, should be smooth, regular grammar rules have become lumpy, as a fun game, but with poor rules. Thinking back, when the Sunset Empire, the power to give English a dishonorable coat of splendor, "popular" under the world is tired of bones!
For historical reasons, English is still the main channel of information dissemination. For some people it is still a necessary tool. For the vast majority of Chinese, it is of little use.
The status of "English" in current education policy is questionable.
Those who laboriously learn "crap" that most people have no use for. Some people say, "What if I give you a piece of information in a foreign language that you can't understand? However, I ask a rhetorical question, how many people have the opportunity to read a foreign language? How many people have the need to read a foreign language? Foreign language is not a kind of English either!
Is a foreign language useful?
I remember when I was a child learning a foreign language, my teacher said: foreign language is a useful tool in life. I started learning foreign languages in fifth grade, which was relatively early at the time (62, Russian). To this day, I still vaguely remember a few words and sentences. In middle school we studied English, and at that time we were the only ones in the local middle school, and there were not many middle schools in the province that studied English.
After joining the work, most of my classmates returned the foreign language to the teacher, and I, into the scientific research unit, due to the need to work is still learning foreign languages, although not learn anything famous, but enough to cope with the work needs. With the help of dictionary, I could check the information, make the experimental program, and once I translated a French material. In addition, to the working class leadership of all the "identity" to participate in, "leadership" of scientific research work.
After graduating from college, I was assigned to work for a municipal enterprise. I'm not sure if I've ever had a problem with that, but I'm sure I've never had a problem with it.
Because of the need to promote the title, had to re-learn foreign languages. The English language requirement for the senior title exam is a vocabulary of 7,000 words! I'm not going to be able to do that! What to do? Surprise study of three months of Japanese, a pass through the national line! Oh, bypassing the vocabulary level. The Japanese test for vocational title is mainly "translation and comprehension", which is the reason for "passing".
A foreign language is a useful tool in life. I think it was a great man who said that. I can't remember the words. It was something like this. My work practice tells me that the foreign language I learned in junior high school, with a little improvement, will be able to cope with the needs of "scientific research work". For the vast majority of people, a foreign language is not an essential tool! Proficiency in a foreign language is a luxury! Luxury is waste !!!!
[English is the biggest foreign trash
English words are as numerous as the stars in the sky, which is the Achilles' heel of English! Even US President George Bush Jr. himself often gets his own native English wrong!
English is strangely slow to respond
Takes the same amount of time and effort. The amount of information available in Chinese is 3-10 times greater than in English. Nowadays, there are three to four million words in English, and you'd be lucky to know one percent of them when you die of old age. The British themselves couldn't understand English three hundred years ago. The Achilles' heel of English is that for new things, English can only create new words to name them, and as new things grow infinitely, English words can only grow infinitely passively, whereas the Chinese language does not
Chinese people can read and understand about 70% of what the ancients of China wrote 2,000 years ago, and that's something that English can't even begin to compare to
Chinese PhD students can graduate with a knowledge of 2,000 characters. The 2,000 Chinese characters in common use are more than enough to deal with all the new things that have come into being, and there's no need to create new characters to name new things, there's no need to be as stupid as the English language, and one of the other decisive advantages of Chinese is that there are nearly 1,900 phonemes in it, whereas there are no more than 400 phonemes in English, and that's why, in the course of speaking, the British have to use more syllables. The British have to use more syllables to express the same meaning as in Chinese, which is why English is half a beat slower than Chinese, which means that Chinese is one to three times faster than English
That's why the Chinese are smarter than the foreigners who speak pinyin
That's one of the fundamental reasons why Chinese are smarter than the Europeans and Americans!!!! Chinese language and culture have long since determined that Chinese culture is the most advanced culture in the world! Otherwise 5000 years of history of the long river eliminated the Chinese national culture a hundred times is more than enough! 5000 years of history has eloquently proved that the Chinese language and culture is the world's most powerful culture of vitality! It is a historical inevitability that Chinese culture will eliminate the western pinyin garbage culture! There is no doubt about it! If you learn English, it's a different story! By the time you die of old age, you won't even know one percent of the words in English
English majors who pass the four or six levels in a year are useless and suffer greatly from this, and I call on all students not to waste their time and energy on it, which will delay their professional studies!]
Our current English learning system is a huge waste of our not-so-rich social resources, and a waste of students' energy. It is a "cruel" destruction and a waste of luxury!
What we can see is that the current students and our traditional culture is drifting away, heavy learning tasks so that they do not have time to pay attention to the essence of Chinese culture, see the old generation of scholars of the profound writing skills, can only sigh!
