A global student reading ability survey shows that the fourth grade students in Singapore ranks first in the world.However, the ratio of local primary four students who like reading very much fell to 51%, a new low in 10 years.The results of this survey are halfway. The reading ability of local 10 -year -old children is among the best in the world, reflecting the school teaching, which also means that many parents have fulfilled their responsibilities.But what is worrying is that the decline in the proportion of children who get fun in reading may represent another expression of reading only.How to make more children and even adults read the goal of joint efforts in the country.
The explanation of the Ministry of Education is a global phenomenon for the decline in the decline in the ratio of children, because the increase in pipelines of leisure and entertainment, especially the popularization of social media.Reading is indeed one of the effective ways to pass the time, but there are more choices, and the competition is naturally great.This is the main challenge to encourage the reading habits of the whole people as a lifestyle.The reading referred to here is not the so -called light reading, or the reading of audio audio books, although these can also bring emotional joy and increase in knowledge.The meaningful reading should be that it can attract people's concentrated energy and devote themselves to it for a long time.This is especially critical in contemporary.
The current popular social media and the biggest business motivation are to let consumers linger, and try to spend more time and spirit as possible.The popularity of short videos shows this feature.The biggest disadvantage of this way of interaction is that it is easy to cause impatience. As long as the content exceeds a few minutes, the listener will have an impulse to refresh the content.If you have formed a habit of contacting new information from an early age, it will be difficult to concentrate on spiritual learning or mastering skills. After all, familiarity can be clever. If you do n’t practice repeatedly for a long time, you ca n’t improve.This is why children's reading habits must be cultivated from an early age.
Reading exercises not only concentrate on the ability of God, but also to develop curiosity, patience and imagination in the process.Reading habits generally start with literary works. Poetry, prose, and novels make people touch beauty from reading and cause thinking.Once a habit is formed, it can expand the scope of reading according to different interests and move from the field of literature to the crystallization of other human wisdom.Some film and television audiences who have read the original work should be able to experience and adapt the film and television works that are adapted from novels often have unsatisfactory gaps.This is the imagination inspired by reading during reading, even the sense of substitution makes mdash; mdash; screenwriter and director have their own feelings that are different from other readers.
Curiosity, patience and imagination, in any era or environment, these personality quality is the element of success in life.Reading a large number of vocabulary accumulated allows people to express their own meaning more completely and further engage in difficult abstract thinking activities.Whether it is inauguration, entrepreneurship, social or love, people who can express their own meaning smoothly are naturally easier to succeed.Those who are good at thinking deeply have become more valuable in the era of artificial intelligence that can easily collect big data and quickly analyze.Because creativity usually comes from the flashes after the thoughtfulness, this original ability is difficult to replace by artificial intelligence.
Therefore, the cultivation of the whole people as a lifestyle should be the goal of joint efforts of the country.The reading ability of local children is much higher than the world average, showing that we already have a solid foundation.How to get more upper levels and make reading become an instinctual interest, not just to take the test or other utilitarian motivations, it is a major challenge in the era of social media.This should not be just a matter of the Ministry of Education. It must be the participation of the government and even the whole society.In addition to the daily promotion of the library, various social groups can also use their own ways to organize various activities, and even create a physical environment suitable for reading anytime, anywhere, so that more people can experience the fun of reading.
Singapore is already a wealthy society, and the development of material conditions is unimaginable during the founding of the People's Republic of China.In a sense, poverty is a relative concept.To become the middle class today, it may be much higher than that of that year, but it does not mean that people who are not reached belong to the poor class.In the era of relatively weakened social liquidity, the marginal effects will inevitably decrease to pursue the improvement of material life.However, if you pursue the prosperity of spiritual life, it will be endless.This is another important reason to cultivate reading habits.
