Why degrees are tied to English level certificates

No English level 4 means no degree. Who can't remember, when the certification of the degree has evolved into the certification of the English level. Chinese culture is profound, Chinese writing is unfathomable, five thousand years of civilization, how many magnificent chapters have been written in writing. However, with the continuous evolution of globalization, Chinese writing is artificially inferior to English, and is gradually declining in the new century. Perhaps we can feel the pace of rapid economic development and the society is moving forward. But we can't seem to feel our culture, and there is a sense of foreboding that it is gradually moving away from its homeland, that it is constantly moving towards the edge of society. What is a great nation? It is not enough to be economically dominant among the nations of the world, but to be culturally dominant as well. Economic control is only a kind of material occupation, but cultural penetration is a kind of spiritual control. With such a long history, with such superb writing, but we do not know how to "pity", preferring to read a hundred times a day "British interest" rather than memorize a Tang Dynasty poetry and Song Dynasty, are these elegant words and phrases are not as good as a few English words have depth and meaning? Look at the campus of various universities, morning reading students countless, but listen carefully, but it is difficult to hear one or two Chinese characters, occasionally see a literature enthusiasts, is reading poetry with deep love, but was the bystanders as a different kind. With such a style of learning, I wonder how long it will take for the age of the masters to be realized. In China, Chinese characters are gradually abandoned by their masters, and national studies may have become a historical term, and masters of national studies are as rare and scarce as national treasures. Many people return to China after the sea, and even the national language can not speak well, the so-called contribution is to rewrite the exquisite Chinese characters into English, on the surface, it seems, indeed, a lot of progress, but when you think of Mr. Wang Guowei, the same people who went abroad for further study, why people are rewriting foreign languages into Chinese, but you can not, because he knew the depth of the national science, the national science of the broad. A lot of people with excellent grades often fall at the threshold of the English language. From undergraduates to doctoral students, from students to teachers, from ordinary workers to senior leaders, from local to central government. It can be said that no other country in the world emphasizes English as much as China does. However, good English results and how, according to many directors reflect, these students in addition to good English, nothing else, a doctoral student engaged in Chinese language, good English can explain what, if even the most basic rules of Chinese language research do not understand, talk about what research. And those who have in-depth study of this person, because the English did not meet the standard, so was thrown out of the door, how many years, such a policy so that how many talents in vain. Degree certificates, originally a kind of recognition of the learned profession, now puts the cart before the horse and becomes a recognition of the four or six levels of English, is this also China's ad hoc? A very solid professional knowledge of the students, just because the English is not good, will not get a degree certificate, is it fair? Moreover, there is a serious imbalance in the level of education between the east and the west of China, and a huge difference between the level of education in rural areas and that in towns, so can all these be ignored? In the end, the English level exam is just a skill test, which cannot be compared with professional knowledge. There is no need for a Chinese language researcher to reach the English 8 level. There is a whole set of reasons why schools are doing what they are doing: adapting to the society and connecting with the international community. In fact, these are mostly self-imposed straitjackets. Even though there are currently many foreign companies coming to the mainland for development, they are not here to raise funds for the people of China, they are here for the sake of profit, and in that case, they have to identify with the Chinese culture and have to accept the Chinese characters. This is originally the best time to promote our own culture and our own characters, however, our countrymen are generous and abandon them like grass, which is saddening. In the face of foreign cultures, we have to be discerning. We have our own characteristics, should be carried forward, should be raised eyebrows, we must not be low. The reform of the education system has been mentioned and reformed year after year, and the results certainly cannot be said to be lacking. For example, for the English four and six levels, only the scores are now announced without grading, which is also a kind of humanized reform. However, its strength and depth are still far from enough, because at present, many enterprises are still artificially divided, and many colleges and universities still link it to the degree certificate. The gradual withdrawal of the university language from the university classroom is a dangerous signal. Just imagine, if we ourselves are unwilling to learn the Chinese language, on what grounds should we ask our overseas friends to learn it; if we have no confidence in the Chinese language, who else will look up to the Chinese characters. To be honest, a person studying Chinese, also walking on campus, always feels that he is one section shorter than those in other majors, why? Because it is a very embarrassing and special major that even the country itself finds embarrassing. Who caused all this? Is it these students themselves? Obviously not. It is the strange eyes around them, it is the ad hoc rules in the education system that make them have unequal treatment. Undeniably, the importance of the English language, has brought a business opportunity, the achievement of countless millionaires. It is because of the investment in engaging in English language training courses, which is self-evidently highly profitable due to the huge market demand. But has the state ever thought that this is actually a kind of misdirection, but also a kind of misdirection to quality education, because everyone runs to learn English, then do not change the first language to English, Chinese is in the second place? Behind such an industry with considerable income means that more talents will not be reasonably utilized. We have been scolding South Korea for their shameful acts, taking Chinese traditional festivals and paper-making for themselves, and even Chinese characters were invented by their country, as were Confucius and Qu Yuan. But just scolding is useless, people dare to say so, I believe that not just move the tongue only, certainly also found the relevant materials, although these materials can not change the history, but it can change the concept of human beings. Is not enough of these national people think y about it, a rejection of tradition, the country's culture to ignore. When other countries pick up, only to regret, this is just a meaningless hurt. The defense of traditional culture is not only the responsibility of archaeologists, should be the children of China **** the same responsibility. People wake up, language, it is not only a tool for communication, but also a culture, lost their own language, means lost their own culture.
