Take the intermediate exam as an example, the written exam accounts for 70 points, and the rest accounts for 30 points. Specific requirements include: first, you should be able to recite poems correctly, fluently and emotionally, and accurately remember ancient poems and verses; Then we should know the author, grasp the feelings and thoughts of poetry, and appreciate famous sentences; You should also be able to quote and use ancient poems flexibly in writing, and then use the philosophy in ancient poems to solve practical problems in life.
However, the significance and function of learning classical poetry is long-term and lasting, and it can affect a person's spiritual level. All this can't be seen immediately from a certain grade exam.

"How are ancient poems graded?" An educator is puzzled by this and thinks that the graded examination is to vulgarize ancient poetry. If students are "stimulated" to read ancient poems in this way, they will only be disgusted and fall into the trap of "exam-oriented education". "Moreover, for literature, everyone's aesthetic is different. What criteria should be used to evaluate the level? This is the sorrow of modern education. Everything must have an immediate effect, but I didn't ask the students how much they understood and whether they were interested. " Professor Wu Xiucheng, deputy dean of the School of Literature of Nanjing University, said.
There are also some parents and educators who believe that it is necessary to carry out the classic examination of Chinese studies in the basic education stage. The parents of a junior two student in Shu Ren School said, "Reading is like breaking ten thousand volumes, and writing is like being divine. Read a book a hundred times and you will understand its meaning ... reading more ancient poems will do you no harm. The school's approach is understandable. "
Yin Fei, a professor of education at Nanjing Normal University, believes that it is an effective way to spread the traditional culture of China by encouraging primary and secondary school students to recite, read and understand China classics in a seemingly utilitarian way. "On the other hand, this environment may also turn good ideas into new burdens for students and become disadvantages, but this does not deny the significance of the exam." Yin Fei said.
Jiang said that as a Chinese teacher, students are now under increasing pressure to study, and various exams are oppressing children's nerves. "We also want to let children consciously read classics through completely conscious learning, but it is difficult to check the effect of learning without investigation."
