Rebirth of the Wild Age

The broadcast time of the "Dialogue" column lasts for an hour. Although it is a program of 2 sets of CCTV, it often attracts special attention, because the guests invited in each issue are very original.

After Song Weiyang's program was broadcast, it quickly aroused heated discussion. Not the ones he said before, but the content afterwards-a high school student mixed into the scene to bring rhythm.

The host has a process outline that will guide the topic, but there are still live audiences who do not play cards according to common sense. In this case, if it is nonsense, just cut it off, if there is something to watch, then selectively keep it.

When the student’s parent talked about his son’s cultivation, a high school student couldn’t bear it. He suddenly stood up with the microphone and said, “Hello Auntie, I feel sad for your son. He has completely lost his childhood and The fun of adolescence. Now the country advocates quality education. You are not quality education. You are a very utilitarian exam-oriented education. If this continues, your son will become a nerd!"

The parent of the student immediately retorted: "I educate my children through the Harvard girl training model. This is quality education! You are too young to know the preciousness of your school days. Only reading is the only way out!"

"You are killing a child's free soul!" The high school student snapped back.

The parents of the students sneered and turned their heads and said, "Boss Song, you are a person who loves to learn. Come and tell this kid what it means to study hard, what it means to work hard, and what it means to achieve the future through education!"

Song Weiyang was too lazy to pay attention, and smiled and asked the host: "Can this paragraph be skipped directly?"

The host said: "Yes, let's talk about..."

"Why do you skip it?" the high school student said angrily. "The current Chinese education model is to learn and take exams. It is cramming and inhumane. Just like Han Han's article said, we spend now. I have a lot of time to study mathematics. How many can I use after graduation? I think it is enough to learn addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and basic equations. Students who don’t like mathematics can major in other courses. Only those who like mathematics Students should study more advanced courses. The college entrance examination should be divided into professional mathematics and general mathematics, so that students can choose according to the major they want to take! This parent, let me ask you, you should have been away from school for more than ten years, right? Do you remember what you learned about mathematics in your second and third year of high school?"

"I...Of course I remember!" said the student's parent.

The high school student immediately asked: "Then I will test your knowledge of the first year of high school. What is the tangent? Don't you remember? Then I will give you a hint, is the tangent cos, sin, or tan?"

"Yes..." The student's parent immediately changed the subject, "I just didn't read well, and now I am so ordinary! If you don't study hard now, do you want to be like me in the future?"

The high school student retorted: “In this society, not everyone wants to be a mathematician. Most people don’t need this knowledge. Why waste their time? Why not learn something? I said, yes. Those who are interested in science can choose high-level mathematics courses on their own. If you are not interested, it will waste time no matter how you study!"

Yes, this show has been strayed by high school students.

The director really couldn't stand it, and directly gave the host an order: "Correct the topic!"

The host asked Song Weiyang with a smile: "Why don't you talk about education?"

"All right," Song Weiyang asked the students' parents, "what do you think of education in your eyes?"

The student’s parents said: “One is to impart knowledge, and the other is to cultivate virtue.”

Song Weiyang asked the high school student again: "How about you?"

The high school student said: "I think education should be something interesting and useful for people to learn, not a stuffy stuff!"

Song Weiyang said: "I agree with Einstein's point of view. I forgot all the things I learned in school. The remaining part is education. Take the compulsory courses for elementary and middle school students as an example, Chinese cultivates literacy and comprehension skills. Mathematics cultivates logical thinking. Even if you forget all the texts you learned in middle school and forget all the knowledge points of mathematics after entering the society, the abilities cultivated in Chinese and mathematics will accompany you through your life. The core of education It is people, not knowledge points. Knowledge points can be learned at any time. However, it is difficult to make up for the abilities of childhood and adolescence in adulthood."

Dr. Lu applauded: "I agree with this sentence very much."

The high school student said, "Does Mr. Song agree to test-oriented education?"

"Can you find other better ways?" Song Weiyang asked, "As far as you said, once implemented, there will be endless troubles. Let's talk about Japan. The best universities in Japan are national and the competition is fierce. There are three types of candidates for Japanese Benzene, the first category is fresh graduates, the second category is past students, who are also called ronin, and the third category is the unsatisfactory college entrance examination, and they are again called the masked ronin. All three types of people who want to be admitted to the ideal university must attend a cram school, otherwise there is no chance. In Japan, a student who has not attended a cram school is absolutely impossible to enter a national university."

The parents of the students were very interested in this and asked: "Why? Is the school teacher not responsible?"

Song Weiyang said: "Because Japan has been engaged in quality education in recent years, just as this classmate said, it is useless for most people to learn advanced mathematics knowledge, so the school simply doesn't teach it. Therefore, the class at the Japan University. The knowledge is very simple, and school is over very early, and the students all go to club activities. If you are interested in singing, you go to learn and rehearse singing; if you are interested in Go, you go to find other students to learn."

High school students are envious: "Japan's education model is very advanced!"

Song Weiyang said: "The problem is that universities do not need such students, and the difficulty of the Japanese college entrance examination is not lower than that of China. So, a Japanese student who wants to enter a university must give up club activities and spend money to go to the private sector. Remedial classes for further studies. A lot of knowledge taught in cram schools is not available in the school class, but it is necessary for the college entrance examination. Don’t you think there is a problem?"

"What's the problem?" the high school student asked.

Song Weiyang's tone increased: "If China does the same thing, what will you do with China's one billion farmers? Many farmers now have difficulties even paying tuition for their children. Would you let them spend a lot of money to go to cram schools? That means blocking the way for most rural students to enter higher education, blocking the way for most rural children to stand up, and the social class tends to be solidified! A class solidified country has no vitality for development. Who dares to do this in China? Fuck, he is the sinner of the Chinese nation!"

The high school student was speechless and said weakly: "Then...Why is benzene feasible that day?"

Song Weiyang laughed and said: "Japan has a very high degree of urbanization, and Japan is a capitalist society. Capitalists are eager for class consolidation. They only need a small number of people to receive higher education, and these people are the new generation of elites in the society. Most people, work with peace of mind. It is a perfect pyramid structure in the eyes of capitalists."

The parents of the students immediately laughed and said: "Boss Song makes sense. China cannot do this. China should continue to conduct exam-oriented education in order to cultivate more talents like Harvard girls!"

Song Weiyang immediately poured cold water: "I said last year that Harvard girls are really nothing. With the grades that I could only read Fudan self-financed students, as long as I can learn English well, I will be given tens of thousands of dollars to operate. Let me show you the full scholarship of Harvard. Because the Chinese high school students in the 90s applied for Harvard, no one came to compete. The Harvard girl succeeded not because she studied well, but because she participated in the exchange project between Chinese and American schools. Once she succeeds, this year there will be more intermediary agencies for studying abroad, and the competition will become more intense. Your son wants to replicate this model, he needs more money, more flexibility, and better operation. The academic performance is second, and only scores are needed. It’s good enough."

The parent of the student was surprised and said: "It's just a good grade?"

Song Weiyang said: "The more excellent grades are used to meet the basic criteria for admission to Harvard. As long as you cross this basic line, Harvard treats all students equally, and does not care whether you score more or less. Especially for those exams. With full scores, Harvard controls the acceptance rate of full score students every year, and for this purpose, it deliberately brushes down many full score students."

The parents of the students quickly asked: "If you don't look at the scores, how do they pick students?"

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "Look for someone to write a recommendation letter. Generally speaking, it is best to find a high school principal to write a recommendation letter for families with no background. If you can find a Tsinghua principal to write a recommendation letter, then your child will be accepted by Harvard. The odds can be increased by 10,000 times. If you are only looking for a high school principal, then I’m sorry, your child will basically not be looked at by Harvard. Unless, your child is indeed very powerful, to the level of genius, then you find a sweeping aunt to write Recommendation letters are fine."

"Recommendation letters are more important than academic performance?" The parents of the students couldn't believe it.

"Yes, recommendation letters are very important~www.readwn.com~Song Weiyang said, "Moreover, there are skills in writing recommendation letters. You can't just talk about how many awards you have. It is useless to take the first grade test since childhood. Harvard does not recognize it. of. You have to show the facts, what kind of volunteer activities you participated in, what talents you master, and where your talents are outstanding. Take me as an example. If I don’t take the college entrance examination and I know the president of Coca-Cola’s Asia Pacific region, then I will find this president to write me a letter of recommendation. As long as my grades exceed Harvard's passing line, I will be admitted 100%. The Harvard girl must have found a significant referrer at the time. "

The parents of the students fainted and muttered: "How can I rely on recommendations? Isn't this going through the back door?"

"Just go through the back door. All famous schools in the United States can go through the back door," Song Weiyang laughed. "Do you have anything to do with the back door? If not, you can try to apply for Harvard Summer School and let your children go to Harvard for a few weeks. Take this opportunity and let The child has a good relationship with the Harvard professor. Maybe the Harvard professor will help the child write a recommendation letter. You have to have money in advance. It is very expensive to go to Harvard to study in summer school."

The parents of the students were completely refreshed from the three views, and murmured: "It's just relying on money and relationships, this famous school is also going to the back door."

Song Weiyang said: "You need your own children to be able to grasp it. Do you think you can be favored by Harvard professors after going to summer school? For ordinary Chinese families, let their children participate in charity activities and sports, and master more talent skills. , The recommendation letter is more exciting, coupled with the outstanding grades, there is still a little chance to study at a prestigious American school."

The content of these discussions about education was cut off by two-thirds in the later editing, but it still caused a sensation in public opinion after the broadcast.

I don’t know how many parents whose dreams of Jackie Chan are broken. At this time, the sales of "Harvard Girls" have broken through one million. Numerous parents who felt cheated after buying the book wrote letters to scold the parents of Harvard girls.
