4.In recent years,websites like myspace,facebook and other have sprung up with great success,attracting many users who are,as you say,meeting more and more of their friends online.However,I can't help but feel all this "virtual friendship" has made young people today feel "connect" to each other online.
To be fair,the lack of proximity has made some people more comfortable open up to other than they might in real life,and the myriad of topics and groups online makes it so easy for everyone to find their niche,it's now easier than ever to find people who exactly the way you do,however singular that idea may be.But are these real friendship?Real friendship,indeed any real relationship comes with ups and downs,but these don't exist online.The internet in this regard is the ultimate mask we may hide behind,all anyone ever sees is what we want others to see.Lets not forget when friends are in need,we go out of our ways to help them,and in turn,expect help from friends when we truly need them,but it is so easy to hide offline or appear so with virtual friendships.Is it any wonder then,with everyone toting "friends" in the hundreds on our web pages,more and more young people feel lonely?
5.The reasons for Chinese soccer team's lackluster performance are many fold,but I think the problem is not finding 11 people in the entire country who can play soccer well,but fixing the broken and corrupt system that these players must exist in.It's no secret that there exist extensive ties between the mafia and the soccer world.Players are picked not because of their skills or ability to work well with one another but rather chosen for relations,shady deals and back door policies.The authorities have the power to make changes,but aside from not being a priority,there are lots of people with keen financial interest in things staying the way they are and these people are spending them well to keep the wheels turning.As long as there are money to be made under the same corrupt system,I think it's a the dream of Chinese soccer becoming strong is just that - a fanciful dream.
6.Within the Chinese education system,there is not enough emphasis placed on creativity.From teachers,to principles,to the Board of Education (or the Chinese equivalent),every one of those people grew up having been taught to memorize the wisdoms in the book and deviation are not to be tolerated.Of course it is no surprise now,that these same people,in charge of the students,are finding it difficult to change,and difficult to teach change.So the result is a bunch of students who can perform calculations and mechanically perform the steps repeated for year in school.
Other factors impede the in the way of raising the importance of creativity as well,not the least of which is lack of funds.A typical American high school student text book can sell for one hundred plus dollars per copy and every few years; the school has funds to make new purchases out in the market.Now whether or not these money actually went to pay for the best text book is secondary,the point is there are huge economic incentives for people to discover new ways to teach children,and so books get better and better over the years.Now compare it with the situation in China,the same state issued texts have been used to teach different generations of people.Before we criticize the American education system for it’s supposed lack of hard work and practice,it might be time to consider it’s no accident that over ninety percent of the world tops universities are located in America.Too much emphasis on creativity?Probably not.
