--Consumption of secondary school students to explore
Modern economic unprecedented development, people's consumption level, content, and ways have also produced huge changes, but as there are more than 73 million secondary school students consumer group of consumption and where to go from here?
With this question, my investigation team in my school senior paragraph made a simple sample questionnaire survey. The statistics of the survey results are as follows: secondary school students' monthly living expenses given by their families range from 150 to 600 yuan, with an average of about 300 yuan; more than 50% of the students spend their pocket money on eating, drinking and playing; 11% of the students use this part of their pocket money to buy study reference books; 8% of the students often treat themselves to a meal after the night self-study; 2% of the students have a cell phone (including Quan Lingtong); 64% of the students who often have their meals at fast-food restaurants outside the school; 10% of the students have their meals at a fast-food restaurant outside the school; and 64%; 10% of the students have been to Internet cafes, video halls, dance halls, electronic game halls and other inappropriate places for secondary school students; 4% of the students have smoked, drank, gambled and other bad behaviors (they don't admit that they still do, but according to our usual observation and teachers' feedbacks, at least 30% of the group still engage in such behaviors).
We can see from the survey results that the current consumption situation of secondary school students is not optimistic! Worrying!
First of all, there is a more serious problem of high consumption among secondary school students in general. We do not deny that reform and opening up has brought higher income and higher living standards to China, especially to every family in open cities like Quanzhou. However, there are still about 30 million poor people below the subsistence level in our country. In 1999, the average monthly consumption per capita in China was 260 yuan, and it was even lower for farmers (160 yuan). The average monthly consumption of our secondary school student population actually amounts to 300 yuan, and what's more, some of them actually own cell phones, which are far away from our minors and even from a considerable part of the adult population. After all, we are a group of people who are not yet economically independent, and this kind of consumption will not only increase the financial burden of the family, but also promote the wind of extravagance and comparison on campus; most importantly, it is detrimental to our physical and mental health - for the students whose families have better financial means, the full fulfillment of material desires tends to offset the pursuit of spirituality. "Playing with things," do not think of progress, demoralization, difficult to face the difficulties of life and learning; on the family economy is not good for students, the face of the face of the earth, back towards the sky parents, the face of laid-off parents, the face of the parents of the heavy financial burden, "poor children How can "poor children" extend their hands? How much money can they get if they reach out? So "shabby", "not elegant" make this kind of children feel that they are "inferior", face, psychological imbalance, and even do something out of the ordinary.
We feel that these have to be "attributed" to those "good" parents, their children's commitment and concern often more than their own, "can not suffer children", "No matter how hard you suffer, you can't suffer your children" and "Wealthy children first" are the **** same voice of many parents. We often hear such words: as long as you study well, how much money I am willing to spend! In such favorable conditions, eat good, wear good, with good seems to be a matter of course!
Secondly, the consumption of secondary school students is one-sided, that is, the importance of material consumption, ignoring spiritual consumption. The survey results show that: half of the students will spend money on food and drink, only 1/10 students consider to buy reference books, masterpieces and so on. When asked, they justifiably answered, "Food is the people's livelihood!" The 21st century is the century of science and technology, and the requirements for the quality of labor are getting higher and higher. Therefore, while we satisfy the material consumption, don't forget to "charge" our brains. In particular, we are still growing young people, or students in school, the main task is to learn, is to enrich their knowledge.
Internet access seems to be an advanced way of "recharging" and a trend. So every class will have a few of these "advanced culture representatives". Qingyang's Internet cafes, Quanzhou's Internet cafes ...... even if they let them dozens of fingers upside down plus ten toes are not enough to count, but also have to ten enough to the hundred borrowed it? One to the weekend all alive and kicking, day and night, but Monday is like a worm, limp on the table. But what do they do with advanced technology? If you go to the Internet cafe walk, you will find that the "representatives" in the wholeheartedly into the chat room, the game ...... actually do not know the cost of a moment of addiction under the dark curtain is not only dozens of dollars, it is delayed learning the wealth and hurt parents a "The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new pair of shoes or boots and then you'll be able to get your hands on a new pair of shoes or boots.
Once again, there are non-healthy, non-civilized consumption habits among middle school students. "Smoking is harmful to health," which is known to everyone, but there are always so many students in such a dashing way "kill" their lives; undermining the social morals of gambling, is a criminal fuse, and "dance face Walking color" of the dance hall, "horse galloping" game halls, etc. are prone to crime, so there are explicit provisions - secondary school students are not allowed to enter and exit the three rooms and a hall, but there are always some students quietly push themselves into the abyss of sin; off-campus dining is mostly not available, but it is not a good idea to use this kind of style to "kill" their lives. The abyss; most of the off-campus catering did not go through the health inspection, especially some of the stalls snacks, snacks is even worse, many schools have also expressly prohibited, but there are always so many students dare to take the youth gambling tomorrow ......
Some students may say: "How to consume is my personal thing ...... "Indeed we should respect the autonomy of personal consumption, but secondary school students consumption as part of the family consumption, of course, is also closely related to the community. Healthy, reasonable, civilized life consumption is related to both the healthy growth of our young students personal, but also related to the improvement of social productivity, the needs of the new society, as well as the development of new markets. Therefore, we should establish a correct concept of consumption.
First of all, should set up a moderate consumption concept. Moderate, that is, suitable for our national conditions, suitable for individual family economic conditions, suitable for the normal needs of physical and mental development of secondary school students. We are still only a developing country, still in the primary stage of socialism, in order to achieve basic modernization in the 21st century, we need our generation to several generations of hard work. If we now develop the habit of spending money lavishly, how can we take on the heavy responsibility entrusted to us by the motherland? And we are still middle school students "proletariat", spend money to take into account the family's ability to afford, regardless of the family living conditions and the pursuit of overspending is not desirable. Parents work hard, labor to provide us with school is already very difficult, how can we with some unnecessary consumption requirements to increase their burden? Suitable for their own consumption of the degree, that is to say, some of the physical development, learning and life must buy the necessary to buy. But in terms of enjoyment is not excessive pursuit, should not be fashionable to wear, to eat, to play, to compare with each other. Don't ask your family to pay for it when people say, "This is the fashion now!" You ask your family to give money to buy, like a cell phone or something. It is unreasonable to spend your parents' hard-earned money in this way. We should improve our own aesthetic level, listen more to parents, teachers or other students, think more about the purpose and meaning of consumption, to prevent blind consumption.
Secondly, we should pay attention to the coordinated development of material consumption and spiritual consumption. On the basis of food and clothing, secondary school students' consumption should be invested more in the level of development materials. For example, ordering useful books and magazines, such as "Quanzhou Evening News", "Beautiful Writings", "Reader", literary masterpieces, study reference books, to participate in computer training, to participate in the promotion of physical and mental health of cultural and sports activities. In addition to allow a little enjoyment of material consumption, for example, can accumulate over time, enough money to travel to visit places of interest, increase extracurricular knowledge, understand the customs of other countries, experience the world, appreciate the magnificent mountains and rivers of the motherland, cultivate the body and mind.
Once again, secondary school students should resist the content of consumption is not conducive to health. Resisting bad consumption depends to a large extent on whether secondary school students have cultivated a good lifestyle and set up a correct concept of aesthetics. Secondary school students should devote themselves to their studies to prevent going astray under the temptation of the flowery world outside the campus, and should always be on guard against non-correct consumption concepts, "the will of poverty dare not be forgotten", " quiet to cultivate one's body, thrift to nourish morality", so as to be a The first thing I want to do is to make sure that I have a decent and elegant teenager.
In short, there is no correct concept of consumption, keen to eat, drink and play, wasteful people in life, there will not be for the country, for the community to contribute to the ambition. Take action! Teenagers and friends, do not be confused, let us raise our hands to dispel the fog, grasp the key moment of life's course! The sky is high enough for birds to fly, the sea is wide enough for fish to leap, in order to make tomorrow better, in order to have a more brilliant future, let us first learn how to consume correctly!
