When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

Chapter 264 Change starts with me

In 87, the National College English Band and Band (CET) was officially launched. It is a large-scale standardized test sponsored by the education department and hosted and implemented by the Education Examination Agency. It is a national teaching examination and its purpose is to promote college English teaching in my country. This work aims to objectively and accurately measure college students' English proficiency and provide services for improving the teaching quality of college English courses in my country.

Today, the CET exam has gone through 27 years.

I don’t know when the results of the CET-4 and CET-6 exams have been linked to degree certificates.

The more key schools are, the stricter the admission requirements. Although for those key schools, it is unlikely that students who can pass the exam will have poor English proficiency, but there are still some.

Even the three private colleges and universities will require the CET-425 and CET-325 exams. If you cannot pass the standard line of , you will also be required to pass the school line of . Only in this way can you get a degree certificate.

It can be said that the CET exam accompanies every college student and is a hurdle that every college student must overcome if they want to graduate successfully.

Over the past thirty years, a kind of inertia has been formed.

Now, Xu Songyao suddenly brought up this matter. In the eyes of everyone, this has exceeded the scope of the three things that a new official should do when he takes office.

After all, if this kind of thing is implemented, it will obviously trigger public discussion.

As Xu Songyao expressed his stance, others gradually became bolder to speak out their thoughts.

Xu Songyao had just taken over as principal and put forward his opinions at the first leadership meeting.

They can also refute and find the loopholes in Zhao Chengpeng's words.

But for Tangdu Jiaotong University, this is not necessarily the case.

"We need to be in line with international standards, base ourselves on the country, and look at the world. Our students are likely to work in various countries around the world in the future, and the probability of working abroad is very high. English has a great impact both in study and in life. necessity."

at this time.

While everyone was talking about it, Zhao Chengpeng suddenly coughed lightly.

Therefore, Zheng Hua's income increased by half a step, and Zhao Chengpeng also followed suit.

However, at this time.

"Right now, no university in China has done this. If we do this, will we become the target of public criticism?"

"I think that the students in our school are all top students from various provinces and cities, and they still have some self-consciousness. If they can use English in the future, they will study hard and don't care about the test scores of CET-4 and CET-6. What is not needed can also save their energy, so that they can focus on the areas they care about, which will also allow them to get better promotion.”

Now that things have happened, everyone is aware of it.

The people who can sit here are all human beings, so it is impossible not to think of this.

After Zhao Chengpeng finished speaking, he became quiet.

Xu Songyao looked around at the crowd again, and then said calmly: "Now let's vote by a show of hands. If you object to my proposal, please raise your hands!"

Just after the vice principal finished speaking, others were waiting for Xu Songyao's reaction.

But in this case, it becomes really against Xu Songyao.

From a certain perspective, Xu Songyao and Zhao Chengpeng are basically the same team.

After looking at Xu Songyao and then at the crowd, Zhao Chengpeng said calmly: "I would also like to express my opinion. I agree with what the principal just said about canceling the linking of CET-4 and CET-6 examination results with degree certificates."

And everyone also became quiet.

Anyone who stands up and expresses his opposition is tantamount to telling everyone openly that he has an opinion against Xu Songyao.

Canceling the CET-4 and CET-6 exams is a good thing for students.

"After the cancellation, our school will still conduct the College English Band 4 and Band 6 examinations every year. They can be used as other references, rather than strictly as a requirement for obtaining a degree certificate."

Zhao Chengpeng has already given a good reason that can be explained in the past, and the matter will probably be settled like this.

Zhao Chengpeng was promoted to vice principal because of Zheng Hua's help, and also because Zhao Chengpeng recruited Wang Donglai to the school when he was the director of the admissions office.

They also all know that in the eyes of many people, English is not important. For many people, it is a completely useless subject.

"The students who can get into our school are all top students. Especially in the past two years, the quality of students has gradually increased. English CET-4 and CET-6 are not difficult for them. The impact of cancellation or not is not big."

No matter what Xu Songyao does, they will get the answer they want through observation.

"So, I agree with the principal's proposal!"

Those who had spoken against it before but did not clearly express their agreement slightly furrowed their eyebrows.

However, after thinking about it for a while, I felt it was normal.

"I think the principal's intention is to cancel the requirement that College English CET-4 and CET-6 cannot obtain a degree certificate, but not to deny CET-4 and CET-6. There is a big difference."

No one expected that Zhao Chengpeng would say such a thing.

"I think we should report this matter to the superior authority and seek the opinions of the superior leaders."

"The regulations on issuance of degree certificates are an internal matter of our school. The principal just canceled the relationship between the two, which does not deny the existence significance of College English CET-4 and CET-6."

The same is true for Xu Songyao.

Most of the school leaders present thought so in their hearts, but no one said it out loud. They were all waiting for others to bring it up.

As the vice principal promoted by Zheng Hua before he left, Zhao Chengpeng should have been very popular, but his limelight was stolen by Xu Songyao. In addition, he was also very low-key, but many people did not realize that Zhao Chengpeng had already served as the vice principal.

Xu Songyao did not get angry, but nodded and said with some approval: "It does make some sense. If you have any other ideas, you can tell me. Tangdu Jiaotong University is not just my opinion. It’s better for everyone to speak freely at the meeting.”

A vice-principal said: "The CET-4 and CET-6 exams are sponsored by higher-level departments. If we rashly propose to cancel the linking of CET-4 and CET-6 exam results with degree certificates, will it cause displeasure from above?"

"I don't mean anything else. I'm mainly worried that the higher-ups will think there's something wrong with our academic philosophy."

After speaking, the conference room was quiet, and no one raised their hands.

Xu Songyao was not surprised by this and said again: "Since no one objects, those who agree please raise your hands!"

Before the words could even be finished, Xu Songyao was the first to raise his hand.

Zhao Chengpeng followed closely behind, and the second one raised his hand.

Gradually, everyone in the conference room also raised their hands.

"Very good. If everyone agrees, then the school will make preparations this year, and Cheng Peng will be responsible for this matter."

Xu Songyao immediately decided on this matter and requested that it be implemented this year.

Soon, the leadership meeting ended.

Zhao Chengpeng was not in a hurry to leave, but found Xu Songyao. Xu Songyao was not surprised that Zhao Chengpeng would come looking for him. Instead, he had expected it.

"I have been at Tangdu Jiaotong University for several years. I never thought I could be the principal before. Sometimes these two days have been a bit dreamy, and I feel like I am in a dream. But after I woke up from the dream, I I think now that I am the principal, what should I do?”

"After thinking about it for a long time, I suddenly realized that the reason why I can be the principal is actually the biggest and best thing I can do."

"Cheng Peng, I'm older than you, so I call you that, don't mind."

Without giving Zhao Chengpeng a chance to interrupt, Xu Songyao spoke again: "I won't say more about the situation of our school. You all know that if it hadn't been for Wang Donglai, our domestic ranking would definitely have dropped. Except Except for traditional engineering, there is no progress at all in other disciplines.”

"To be honest, the so-called 'Qian Xuesen Experimental Class' has not achieved much in the past few years since its establishment. The only thing that can be used is Wang Donglai."

"But such an academic genius will excel in any school, shock the world, and make great achievements. At best, we can help him avoid some detours and make him famous faster."

"So, I was thinking that we can no longer follow the old path, we need to change our thinking and change our academic philosophy."

"Dong Lai and I have talked a lot. Many of the things he said are insightful and subversive at the same time."

"We have Wang Donglai in our school, and I don't know how many schools are envious of him. However, we cannot be complacent and arrogant because of this. Instead, we must guard against arrogance and impetuosity. We must clearly understand that the current situation is because of Wang Donglai. "

"And there is only one Wang Donglai. We need to cultivate more Wang Donglai, or they can be duplicates."

"The Future of Mathematics will be our school's attempt to hit the top journals in the field of mathematics. Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, it will be an extremely rare experience."

"If it succeeds, not only the mathematics major, but also our country's academic ability will be recognized by scholars around the world. Even if it fails, it will allow other domestic universities to learn from experience and pave the way for the future. Of course, I don't think we will fail."

"The reason is simple. I am willing to believe in Donglai. He has the potential and ability."

"It is said that the first thing a new official does when he takes office is to burn fire here, in order to get rid of a concept in domestic universities, that is, foreign journals are authoritative, foreign journals are advanced and developed, and Chinese The journal is not weak!”

"There will come a time when foreign scholars will also learn Chinese, read Chinese journals, and learn the most advanced academic knowledge in the world."

"The second fire will be on the Institute of Advanced Mathematics. I plan to put you in charge of the Institute of Advanced Mathematics and some adjustments to the school's regulations. Do you have the confidence?"

When Xu Songyao finished speaking, he turned around and looked at Zhao Chengpeng intently, waiting for his response.

In fact, when Zhao Chengpeng came over, he had thought about this.

He knew that his speech in the conference room was equivalent to submitting a petition.

The two of them already have a relationship like Wang Donglai, so it is normal for them to be able to get together.

Xu Songyao will definitely reciprocate the favor and show kindness to himself.

However, Zhao Chengpeng was still a little surprised by Xu Songyao's directness and generosity.

It doesn't matter if you express your inner thoughts openly, but if you say what you want to do without any reservation, it is very sincere.

With this in mind, Zhao Chengpeng nodded and said, "I have this confidence."

"Tangdu Jiaotong University is a university with many years of history. I am also a Tangdu Jiaotong University student. I want the school to be better than anyone else, so I will fully support these measures."

"Next, if there are any problems, I will do my best to build Tangdu together!"

What Zhao Chengpeng said was true, not polite.

Because he is already the vice president of Tangdu Jiaotong University. Although he is not the youngest, if he makes achievements, he is likely to go further.

If he follows the rules, he may not have this opportunity until he retires.

But Xu Songyao's actions and ideas gave him a chance.

Let Tangdu Jiaotong University become better!
Once completed, this will be a huge achievement. With Zheng Hua in the education department, he does not need to worry about being buried.

To put it ten thousand steps back, even if there is no success, Zhao Chengpeng will not lose anything.

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Chengpeng supports Xu Songyao so firmly.

In the adult world, there is not so much ambition, but more about weighing the pros and cons and choosing interests.

……

Tangdu Jiaotong University moved quickly.

After the leadership meeting decided, Zhao Chengpeng watched the matter personally.

A notice appeared directly in front of all the students of Tangdu Jiaotong University.

The content of the notice is short, only a few lines of text.

After the school’s fifth leadership meeting in 2014, it was decided that our school will no longer take the CET- and CET- exams, on-campus English proficiency exams and other types of off-campus English exams as part of undergraduate graduation and degree requirements. Grant conditions.

This decision will be implemented from September 2014, 9. Please be informed and inform students.

Just a few hundred words, once it was spread, it caused bursts of cheers on the campus of Tangdu Jiaotong University.

Not many students like taking exams, even top academics.

The CET-4 and CET-6 exams are completely useless to most Tangdu Jiaotong University students.

At their level, it's not difficult to pass.

But again, the CET-4 and CET-6 exams are just boring involution.

If everyone has it, it means that everyone doesn't have it.

Students from Tangdu Jiaotong University are naturally compared to those at the same level and school.

Therefore, passing CET-4 and CET-6 is just a waste of time for many people.

But if you don't take the exam and pass it, you won't be able to get the degree certificate, so everyone can only hold their noses and take the exam.

Now that it has been cancelled, it naturally caused a burst of cheers from students.

As one of the top universities in Tangdu City, news about Tangdu Jiaotong University spread quickly.

In just two or three hours, the news had spread throughout the major universities in Tang City, causing students from other schools to cry with envy and jealousy.

At the same time, the news media also noticed the notice issued by Tangdu Jiaotong University.

For a time, many media outlets reprinted and reported on it.
