Change for schools?话题：近日，全国政协委员莫言建议，将中小学学制从12年改成10年，并取消小升初考试和中考。你怎么看？Zhao Chenxuan, 15, an overseas student in Canada I partly agree with Mo Yan. These entrance examinations should be canceled (取消). They make students stressed and even increase the risk of suicides (自杀). Also, zhongkao, the senior high school entrance exam, shouldnt be the only method to evaluate (评价) a student. If students fail, they will have no chance to receive a higher education. Its unfair (不公平的). Tests and homework marks should also be involved. I still want to go to school for 12 years, but I want eight years for elementary school and four for high school. When kids are 14 years old, they want to make more friends and learn more. It is a good time to go to high school.Xu Youyou, 12, from ShenzhenI dont completely agree with Mo Yan. The primary school graduation exam should be canceled, but zhongkao should be kept. Every student can graduate from primary school, whether they pass the exam or not. The only difference is the quality of their next school. The higher their score is, the better school they go to. It is unfair. And primary students shouldnt face so much stress at a young age. But personally, I think zhongkao is important. Its true that zhongkao causes stress, but there is also a lot of stress in the real world. It helps us get used to stress. Also, I agree with studying for 10 years, and I want to reduce the time for primary school to three years.Fan Zhuoming, 13, from BeijingI agree with Mo Yan. Nowadays, we always spend a long time practicing the same things. Before exams, we go over lessons and do tests again and again. Sometimes, its a waste of time because we dont have that many problems to solve. If we have 10 years of school, we can save time and learn the courses more deeply. Also, canceling exams will give us less stress.Zhao Jiacheng, 15, from XianI disagree with Mo Yan. Sometimes we have too much stress from these examinations, but it also pushes us to work hard. The process is hard, but we make progress. Whats more, if we only have 10 years of school, we wont have enough time to develop (发展) our own interests and improve our physical health. In my view, we should study in primary school for five years but middle school for four years. This will give us enough time to do what we love to do instead of just studying for zhongkao.I.
