[quote=JIMMYB,462375]The exam-oriented education in China has been criticized a lot by both educators and students. However, nothing has changed so far. On April 9, Jiang Chengbo, a high school student, took a chance to criticize China education under the national flag after the flag raising ceremony. He should have given his speech examined by his teacher. However, he changed his speech and criticized China education in front of more than 3000 teachers and students at his school. “What can we learn from the disoriented Chinese education? What can we do even if we enter the college and find a job after graduation? ........We are not machines. The school shouldn’t have used us as a tool to win high rates of admission into colleges even if we were tools. We should not study hard to fulfill our parents’ dreams. Instead, we should have our own dreams…….” In his seven-minute long speech, he spoke out how he was dissatisfied with current Chinese education. The teachers and students standing in front of him were all shocked. But no one interrupted his speech. The teachers allowed him to finish his speech. “The school authorities criticized him for making inappropriate speech in appropriate circumstances but didn’t take any further actions to punish him. At that time, we could have cut off the electricity to interrupt his speech. However, we did nothing but allowed him to finish his speech, trying not to hurt his ego.”, according to the vice president of the middle school. According to Jiang’s teachers, he is an excellent and disciplined student. Last year, he won the first prize at the poem reciting competition. Before giving his speech, he gave his speech to his teacher. His teacher gave him some suggestions and guidance. No one knew that he would have changed his speech. Jiang Chengbo is brave. He dares to citizen China education in front of more than 3000 people. What do you think of this guy? [/quote]
