The English Education of Primary School in ChinaAbstract: From 1920s to 1980s China begins the English education.In the early 1970s a few primary school open the English classes in some coastal city as shanghai guangdong and so on.In 9-year compulsory education published in 1992,there mentioned if school have the condition it can open a English course at senior classes.Form 1978 the Full-time years of primary and secondary English syllabus system published ,English teaching in China have no develop in decade.From 1922 the publish of nine-year compulsory education curriculum program primary school start to sat the English course.English education at primary school develop fast in resent years,a lot English coursese out of school sat out to help students to get a high mark.Primary school English teaching in China still have a lot problems,the limit of teacher, teaching material, content of courses ,instructional mode and so on.Although the development of English education in China for half a century, but English teaching in primary schools nationwide began in the autumn of 2001.Set English course in primary schools is the main content in curriculum reform of basic education in our country. English classes usually open in the third grade and above, Coastal and developed areas start from elementary grade.To popularize English teaching, China's current situation of primary school English teachers isnt qualified.Most primary school teachers are from secondary teachers school,and the secondary teachers school have no English major.So At present the majority of primary school English teachers without professional training.In survey,one economically developed town have 13 primary school and 38 teachers.Among the theachers only 3 are University graduates,only 11% received primary school education training.Those teachers only learned junior or senior English,after a short English teaching training ,they become an English teacher in shool.Most primary school English teachers have too much workload,they teach more than 100 students and have 16-18 classes per day.The quality of English classes surely can be satisfied students.Operating expenses limit couse the teachers wages are not full up to expections of graduated university students and the regular teachers.They also havent chance to have training. The teaching method is too simple and the system is rigid. Although the reformation has been advocated for several years, many school still follow the old pattern. Teacher is still the corn of the teaching process. And students are still busy with note-making in class, and with note-reciting after class. This traditional teaching method withers students zest. “Mute English” becomes a common symptom.Currently, There are a hundred types English Textbooks. These materials can be divided into two categories:1, The introduction of teaching materials.The textbook may not suitable fot Chinese students.Its hard to non-native speaker. 2,compiled by Chinese this type may easy accept by students,but the English they learn must not natural English.All textbooks need students recite words and dialogs.Even native speaker dont use the dialogs appeard in the textbooks.Student learning the unuseful dialogs only for the entence examination. Mute English taught by prymary school teachers surly have no help for students in the future.Now adays, the textbooks are improved a lot.They learn form foreign country to have more pratical and interesting.Use dialogs and situational scenes to catch strudents interests.Pay attention on structure and practice.Use pictures ,stories,songs and games to help understanding. Such aszoomorphized letters make students associate the prouncation, easier to remember. The little interesting cant help lightening the heavy burden of primary students.In the teaching program,primary scholl students should learn 600-700 English words and 30-40 songs,students should have the ability to watch English cartoon.It may possible for 7-13 years children if theyre native English, but in China they also need to learn Chinese ,mathe and other subjects.After school, students usually have to learn instrument or others.Without doubt,students cant achieve the goal in the program made by education department.Actually,English teaching in primary school cant gain the ability of children.English as a language is a tool to communicate,a key to open a widen treasure house of the westen culture.About the English culture and customs are not mentioned enough in those txetbooks.In the background of Chinas examine systerm,a lot English training course out of school set up to help students to get high marks in the exams. In reality, students-oriented education is overwhelmed by the large-scale environment. Exam-oriented forces teachers, parents, even students themselves to put the score in the first place.In primary school,no one truly learn English to use it ,primary school students only learn for marks.Even the parents and teachers considering good or bad students by the marks students got in the exam.So the evaluate sysyterm determined students cant study English in a easy way. In my opinion, the methods to improve primary school English education have 2 points.Firstly,not only evaluate students by paper examinations.We can even not evaluate the students on English,just teach students in a easy way a kind of game.Create more practical activity,through the way students use English to evaluate who learn it better.Secondly,qualified the English teacher in primary school.Raise the wages of primary school English teacher,so that more English major guaduate students will join in the primary shool .Get the ragular teachers more professional English teaching training.Qualified teacher must know how improtant it is to gain the ability to use English more than getting higher marks in exam.They can understand the textbooks more deeply.With the globalization of the whole world English may be a important tool to know the world.And the primary students are the future of our country.To get the English teaching sysyterm reformed,can lead the social progress.Bibliography(参考文献)梅德明,2004,大中小学一条龙英语人才培养模式研究上海:上海外语教育出版社 20103. 21,May 20104,陈坚林,英语教学组织与管理【M】,上海:上海外语教育出版社生命列车The Train Of Life1. 不久以前,我读了一本书。书中把人生比作一次旅行。2. 人生一世,就好比是一次搭车旅行,要经历无数次上车、下车; 时常有事故发生; 有时是意外惊喜,有时却是刻骨铭心的悲伤 3. 降生人世,我们就坐上了生命列车。我们以为我们最先见到的那两个人-我们的父母,会在人生旅途中一直陪伴着我们。 4. 很遗憾,事实并非如此。他们会在某个车站下车,留下我们,孤独无助。他们的爱、他们的情、他们不可替代的陪伴,再也无从寻找。 5. 尽管如此,还会有其他人上车。他们当中的一些人将对我们有着特殊的意义。 6. 他们之中有我们的兄弟姐妹, 有我们的亲朋好友。我们还将会体验千古不朽的爱情故事。7. 坐同一班车的人当中,有的轻松旅行。8. 有的却带着深深的悲哀 还有的,在列车上四处奔忙,随时准备帮助有需要的人 9. 很多人下车后,其他旅客对他们的回忆历久弥新 但是,也有一些人,当他们离开座位时,却没有人察觉。10. 有时候,对你来说情深义重的旅伴却坐到了另一节车厢。你只得远离他,继续你的旅程。11. 当然,在旅途中,你也可以摇摇晃晃地穿过自己的车厢,去别的车厢找他 12. 可惜,你再也无法坐在他身旁,因为这个位置已经让别人给占了 .13. 没关系。旅途充满挑战、梦想、希望、离别 就是不能回头。因此,尽量使旅途愉快吧!14. 善待旅途上遇见的所有旅客,找出人们身上的闪光点。15. 永远记住,在某一段旅程中,有人会犹豫彷徨,因为我们自己也会犹豫彷徨。16. 我们要理解他人,因为我们需要他人的理解。17. 生命之谜就是:我们在什么地方下车?坐在身旁的伴侣在什么地方下车?我们的朋友在什么地方下车?我们无从知晓 18. 我时常这样想:到我该下车的时候,我会留恋吗?我想我还是会的。和我的朋友分离,我会痛苦。让我的孩子孤独地前行,我会悲伤。 我执著地希望在我们大家都要到达的那个终点站,我们还会相聚 19. 我的孩子们上车时没有什么行李,如果我能在他们的行囊中留下美好的回忆,我会感到幸福。20. 我下车后,和我同行的旅客都还能记得我,想念我,我将感到快慰。21. 献给你, 我生命列车上的同行者, 祝您旅途愉快!1. Not long ago, I read a book, in which a mans life was compared to a journey.2. The life of a man is just like a hitchhiking,during which many times we go up and down. Now and then things will happen accidently, some of which are to be unexpected excitement,while some heart-breaking sorrows. 3. When first embraced the world,we are already on the train of life. We take it for granted that the first two persons, our parents, whom we are encountered with, will accompany us all the way.4. Sadly,things do not go on as we thought.Our parents will get off the train at a certain station,leaving us, bereft and helpless.Their love and emotion to us and their irreplaceable company can be found in nowhere.5. However,there will be somebody else who will get on the train. Some of them will have special meaning to us.6. Some of them may be our siblings , relatives and friends, and we will also expereince the imperishable love.7. Some of our travelling companions are quite light-hearted on the way.8. While some may bear immense sorrow.Still some ,back and forth, are ready to hold out their hands for others who need help.9. Some people alight off the train, yet they are still kept in the mind of the other passengers for long;some, to the opposite, leave their seats without being noticed.10. Sometimes, the one,who is dear to your heart, has huddled into another carriage. Nothing but one you can do is just to keep on going, far away from him.11. Of course, during the journey, you may stagger to another carriage to look for him.12. Its a pity that you will never seat yourself beside him because the seat has been engaged by others. 13. Never mind. The journey is full of challenges,dreams, hopes and departures- but only one thing is that you cant turn back. So, have a good journey with heart and soul.14. Show your good-will to all the passengers you are encountered with, and find the merits of theirs.15. Remeber that someone may oscillate just as we do in the journey.16. We should understand others just as we need others understanding.17. The enigma of life is:Where shall we get off the train of life?And how about the companions beside us?And our friends?We dont know.18. Sometimes I think:When my time comes to get off the train,shall I miss it?I think I will.It is a suffering when I part with my friends.I will be sorry for leaving my kids going alone.I firmly hold that when we get to the terminal,we will have another reunion.19. When my kids get on the train of life, they have only little luggage in their travelling bags. However,if I can leave the beautiful memory in them,I will be happy. 20. After getting off the train of life, I will be content if my fellow passengers will remember me and miss me.21. To you , the companions on my train of life.May you have a good journey!8- -
