Shortly after Chen Baosheng, the new Minister of Education, took office, Zheng Xuezhi, a famous educator, proposed 13 to the Ministry of Education to effectively improve education in China. The eighth suggestion seems honest, but it touches a gray area related to the college entrance examination. I wonder if it will attract the attention of Minister Chen. Lao Wang paid special attention to this article.

The eighth suggestion is: implement the qualification examination system for senior high school entrance examination examiners.

It is suggested that the marking of subjective questions such as composition will often lead to social speculation. It is hoped that the personnel who take part in the marking of the college entrance examination will be given unified examination and training to ensure the accuracy and fairness of the marking of the college entrance examination.

What's unfair about marking the college entrance examination composition?

Why point the finger at the examiner of the college entrance examination composition?

Who are the examiners of college entrance examination composition?

How long does it take the examiner to mark a composition for the college entrance examination?

After the news came out that the score of Chinese college entrance examination should be raised to 180, a slogan quickly became popular: those who get Chinese get the college entrance examination, and those who get composition get Chinese.

The Chinese teacher cheered that their tragic fate had finally come to an end; Various language and composition cram schools quickly fell into a state of madness, and the wind and water turned around. The golden cram school belonging to English suddenly fell into our bowl. Writing seems to determine the fate of candidates, but in fact, writing has become the most unstable score in Chinese exams, because of the reviewers.

Teachers, parents and students try their best to submit a college entrance examination composition as part of their future and ideals, but they have no idea who is judging this article at the other end of the paper. Whether they are qualified to make this evaluation and whether they have enough time to judge.

Look at this question first. Don't talk nonsense, just count.

Take Lao Wang's province as an example, there were nearly 300,000 candidates for the college entrance examination in 20 16, including 300,000 composition papers.

It is known that there are no more than 100 people in the composition marking group, which is calculated as 100 people (in fact, there should not be so many). According to the marking method, computer marking, two marking staff marking a test paper, effective marking staff, according to 50 people. The marking time is 6 days, and the actual marking time is 5.5 days.

Therefore, if you read 54,000 copies a day, you will get about 1.080 copies per person per day. The time for marking papers every day is calculated as 10 hour, with 108 copies per hour and 1.8 copies per minute. It is equivalent to reading a composition every 30 seconds.

If we consider people's energy, physical fatigue caused by staring at the screen for a long time and psychological fatigue caused by reading a lot of middle school compositions, in fact, the effective marking time can never be so standard. The actual marking time of the combination may be shorter. There are irresponsible rumors in the workshop that it takes less than 10 second to review a college entrance examination composition, which is really slander, and about 20 seconds is normal.

A normal composition of 800 words, if calculated according to 20 seconds, is 40 words per second. That's how people look at computer screens.

After getting such thrilling data, let's be quiet. This data is too much. We can only regard it as a possible situation. Let's go back to the official story. A composition should be read for at least one minute, the standard is three minutes. However, the algorithm is already here. It is enough to calculate according to this algorithm, and see how many people and days it takes to reach this standard. This is a simple arithmetic problem.

That's not the point! ! !

The point is, score back to back. Two reviewers, correcting a composition at the same time, synthesize their scores and find their average, which is the final score. But the system design will always fall into the darkness of human nature. In order to be as fair as possible, the system designer specified a score difference. For example, in composition grading, it is stipulated that the difference between two marking teachers should not exceed 6 points. If it exceeds 6 points, it will be regarded as a question paper and immediately submitted to the third marking teacher for review.

Is there a problem? Everything seems to be in order. However, if two reviewers exceed the prescribed difference too many times, it will inevitably affect them. As a result, a hidden rule came into being quietly, and the reviewers tried their best to score the middle points, so that the differences between the two people were controlled within a certain range, and everyone took care of each other, tacitly and peacefully. (Traditionally, some people will deny this, and the reasons will be very impressive. In fact, it is needless to say that this matter is so sensational. As long as someone has the ability to read a certain amount of papers and make quantitative analysis, the nature is self-evident. )

So, why did the examiner fall into this embarrassment? Because of their identity.

Before seeking the answer, discuss a standard and take part in marking the composition of the college entrance examination. Which group should be the most suitable?

They should be very familiar with middle school Chinese, preferably with more than ten or twenty years of teaching experience; They understand students and sympathize with their efforts; They love reading, have certain appreciation and identification ability, like writing, and have certain writing ability; They have participated in marking the college entrance examination several times, and they have enough understanding of the process, importance and influence of marking. Although this is not as important as the ancient imperial examination, it directly affects the fate of many people.

Such a person is the most suitable marking teacher.

So in reality, who is participating in marking? Combining all kinds of news, we can roughly outline this crowd.

The first category: university teachers. The evaluation of college entrance examination papers is generally organized by colleges and universities, and the direct person in charge is college teachers. Of course, most of them belong to organizations and managers, and the number of people directly involved is limited by the total number of college teachers.

The second category: middle school teachers. In a province, outstanding middle school students from all over the country actively participated in marking the college entrance examination. They are teaching in the middle school, which is close to our ideal examinee standard. But unfortunately, there are fewer and fewer opportunities for this group to appear in the college entrance examination marking team. I know the reason very well, but I can't say it clearly.

The third category: graduate students in school. They are the main force in marking the college entrance examination. I don't want to say more about this, because Lao Wang himself did a lot of work in those days.

Some people may ask: Is there a problem with these people's composition marking in the college entrance examination?

The problem is big! ! !

Lao Wang said a lot of nonsense in the article "A middle school student told us that most liberal arts students in China (Ben Shuo Bo) were unqualified", just to illustrate a problem. At least in the liberal arts field, our university and middle school teachers have limited reading, and our masters and doctors have limited reading and weak writing.

Then, the question is, what criteria do they use to determine the score of an article in Extreme Moment? A brief look at their educational experience will be clear. When they receive primary and secondary education, they all belong to the examination-oriented category. Everyone has a strong problem and has no intention of reading. The most standard reading material that most people have access to is Reader. However, such a magazine obviously can't save everyone from reading as a whole, writing functional rhetoric and having false feelings.

In Chinese education in China, writing teaching is extremely lacking in the whole country, and writing training is almost zero when entering universities. This situation basically includes teachers in universities and middle schools, as well as masters and doctors who are studying. In this case, when we look back, I'm afraid our hearts are filled with a sense of absurdity.

In the past few years, there were many reports in the newspaper that students' writing was very popular, which was caused by many factors. Such as: true feelings, natural expression, accurate language, the most basic and strict requirements, whether from middle school teaching or college entrance examination marking, are difficult to reflect.

It is true that there are detailed and strict marking standards for college entrance examination compositions, and the classification in all aspects is not lax. However, as long as people who have read a lot of manuscripts understand a truth, the most important thing is how to internalize the standards on paper into their own inner standards, so that when reading a composition, reviewers can quickly find out the literacy of a writer reflected behind the text. How hard it is. If a person reads less and has low writing ability, then the standard of beauty will be distorted. There is a kind of monk called crooked mouth monk.

Based on the above conditions, we can draw the conclusion that in a short time; In the case of insufficient marking standards and internal appreciation ability; On the premise of unreasonable personnel composition and insufficient personnel training. There is a potential unfairness in marking subjective questions in the college entrance examination-specifically, marking composition. Note that I'm talking about possibility.

Just after the college entrance examination this year, Shanghai writer Ye Kai immediately wrote an article questioning the qualification of the college entrance examination marking teacher, and his post was quickly deleted. Lao Wang had a heart to say a few words at that time, and suddenly he felt powerless. Today, I saw Mr. Zheng's proposal and made a grand mention of it. I finally dared to say it. I wonder if anyone will really pay attention to this problem.

This year's college entrance examination is over. In the province where Lao Wang is located, the overall score of Chinese in the college entrance examination has reached a new level. The Chinese score of the liberal arts champion in the college entrance examination is only about 1 10. Looking at the whole province, it is an indisputable fact that there are few high scores, and the overall language ability has declined. But I don't believe or accept that the score just dropped.

Whose fault is this? We live by reading and writing, and we also live by China people. We like it and want to do it well.

Some friends and parents asked me how to grade the college entrance examination composition. Is writing saved?

Answer: Yes. First, find a master to guide writing according to the reader's mentality. Second, write a good hand.
