陈花: Honey, did you see the news? A CPPCC member proposed canceling the Gaokao and allowing everyone to go to university directly!
黄刚: Yes, I saw it. His reasoning is that the Gaokao creates too much pressure, affecting students' development. Plus, university enrollment rates are already high, so why not let everyone go to university?
陈花: It sounds good. Students wouldn’t have to cram for extra classes or worry about a single exam affecting their entire future.
黄刚: But the problem is, without the Gaokao, how would universities select students? If they switch to a comprehensive evaluation, urban students would have an advantage over rural students, which could worsen the inequality in education resources.
陈花: That’s true. Also, he suggested shortening primary, middle, and high school education to a total of nine years so students can enter university earlier. Is that really feasible?
黄刚: That would mean students have to complete all fundamental knowledge in a much shorter time, especially in science subjects. The learning pressure might actually increase.
陈花: Another issue is, if everyone can go to university, wouldn’t the quality of higher education decline? University degrees might lose their value, and job competition could become even tougher.
黄刚: Exactly, this relates to the issue of 'degree inflation.' While the Gaokao has its flaws, it is still a relatively fair selection system. Completely canceling it might create new problems.
陈花: It seems like this proposal has some idealistic aspects, but implementing it in reality would be quite challenging.
黄刚: That's right. Education reform shouldn't be one-size-fits-all; we need to find a balance between fairness and efficiency.
