You think English is of limited practicality. Usually, people who talk to foreigners and watch American TV dramas have subtitle groups, so they don't need to learn to buy food.
You think physics has limited practicality. Who is free at ordinary times? Those little sliders swing from side to side, so you don't need to learn to buy food.
Do you think chemistry has limited practicality? Who usually plays with copper sulfate without learning to buy food?
You think classical Chinese is of limited practicality. Usually, anyone who has leisure and pain to read classical Chinese doesn't have to learn to buy food.
First of all, we must understand that the college entrance examination is a selective examination, not a testing examination. There are not many educational resources in China, which means that there must be so many people who can't go to college every year. The task of the college entrance examination is to formulate a standard that reflects the gradient of students. If everyone can do everything in the exam and get full marks, then you can only get into Tsinghua Peking University by drawing lots. Therefore, no matter what you take in the college entrance examination, you will never take too simple and undifferentiated content. Even if you really go to the exam to buy food, you will come up with dishes that ordinary people can't buy. This is an objective fact. Therefore, students who are too obsessed with exams can let nature take its course, unless it is a lottery exam, even if it is a family background exam, it will be very difficult. The college entrance examination is to give students an order and allocate educational resources. Although the current sorting method is not perfect, it is relatively a good method. Theoretically, you can also test intelligence, but since it is basic education, you have to learn everything. Specialization is the work of vocational schools and colleges.
Secondly, I feel that quality education should be comprehensively investigated, especially in terms of morality. Believe it or not, this unquantifiable standard minute becomes a fight? There is only one place to go to Peking University. 13 gangsters are brave, and I donated 20 million to charity. Who should attend? How does piano level 10 compare with national football players? Looking for the organizing Committee to judge is basically to see who is pleasing to the eye. According to the usual performance, whoever has the power to write comments will have money.
