Challenges for English majors? USTC's cancellation of English major causes confusion among students!
Is the position of the English subject in jeopardy? USTC canceled the English Department, and the embarrassing situation of the British College.
Chinese, Mathematics and English, known as the three main subjects, are all scored the same in both secondary school and university entrance exams, and the scores are also very high. From primary school onwards, parents pay a lot of attention to the academic performance of these three subjects, which will have a big impact on the final exam results.
Among them, Chinese with English as the first language is generally relatively easy to master. Although it is difficult to get a good score, it is not a big problem to raise it to 110 points for a total score of 150 points. Mathematics is a test of thinking and reasoning, and those who do well in this area tend to score no less.
However, since English is a foreign language course, it is very difficult to teach it due to the lack of specific context. Many parents feel that English is less important than the other two main subjects.
Many parents spend a lot of money to help their children improve their English skills while they are in school. Unfortunately, less than 20% of college students are actually working in the English language field after they leave school.
This makes English a subject that many parents want to abolish. Every year, there are many netizens who will lose their place in the university. Although the authorities have reacted, it is said that English is still one of the three major subjects.
However, the role of English in the world is constantly weakening, which is related to the growing strength of our country as a whole. Many students and parents feel that reading English is a promising career, so many people apply for English when they take the university entrance exam. However, in today's context, the role of English in education is becoming less and less, which makes many parents and classmates hesitate.
Especially when the China University of Science and Technology announced the cancellation of six undergraduate departments, including English, many students in the English department had a headache. The University of Science and Technology of China said it plans to eliminate six undergraduate subjects, including English, and that if there is no objection, English students will stop recruiting students this year.
In addition to the University of Science and Technology of China, some experts also believe that many schools should gradually eliminate English courses. Some people believe that this is a sign that English courses will decline in the future.
However, at this stage, the English course is still in a relatively stable state. Although the English working environment is no longer as good as it used to be, English is still very important when it comes to foreign languages. Teacher Chu Yin has said more than once that learning a language is the best choice. Students can use a foreign language as a hobby or as a skill, but it will be difficult to find a job in the future if they only master a foreign language.
So, while we don't recommend candidates to fill in the foreign language only in the university entrance exam, the role of English courses in universities has not changed. In the long run, the study of English subjects should still attract great attention from students.
As it stands, English is still one of the three main subjects, and it has a relatively high score. If you don't learn English well, it will inevitably have a certain impact on the overall level of the test. Therefore, students should be encouraged to have a correct attitude towards English subjects.
Although English is a foreign language, it is generally easy to master. Especially in middle school, it is easier to improve your English score, as long as you accumulate and practice for a long time. If students are willing to put in some effort to learn English, their English achievements can be improved through continuous accumulation.
At the same time, parents are asked not to be too resistant to this subject. For a child, being proficient in a foreign language is also a skill that is beneficial for future development. If students are willing to put in some effort to learn English well, they will gain a lot.
Therefore, we must value and value the English course and be fully aware of the importance of this course. English is both a subject and an ability that has a positive effect on the overall quality of the student. English is not only a use of language, but also a problem-solving and communication skill.
On the whole, English courses are still an integral part of the current teaching system in our country. It is necessary to enable students to achieve good results in English teaching in the future and lay a solid foundation in their future academic careers.
