Have you ever thought about the strict protection of those college entrance examination papers that affect the fate of tens of millions of students, from the time the questions are written to the time they are printed? In 2003, a college entrance examination paper that was related to the future of countless people was mysteriously stolen, and the real culprit behind it was actually an unknown senior high school student. How could an ordinary peasant child embark on this road of no return?
Imagine that you are an ordinary peasant child, who has studied hard since childhood, and everyone in your family is proud of you, but as the college entrance examination approaches day by day, the pressure is also like a dark cloud in the sky that overwhelms people. It's not just Yang Bo's story, it could be the story of you, me, or someone we know.
Yang Bo, an honor student born in the countryside, has always been a good student in the eyes of teachers since he was a child, and "someone else's child" in the mouth of his parents. It's a pity that there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck, but Yang Bo's performance in his third year of high school plummeted. Why? Stress. Something you can't see but bend your spine.
While everyone around him was talking about the future and dreams, Yang Bo felt more and more that he couldn't grasp the direction. Every time he does not do well in an exam, it is like a knife in his heart, and this pain is only understood by those who have experienced it. His teacher had tried to help him by talking to him individually, hoping that he would let go of his mental baggage and concentrate on preparing for the exam. But for Yang Bo, this kind of help seems to be a short-acting painkiller, and after that, the pain will still come back.
The turning point occurred by chance one afternoon, when Yang Bo overheard his classmates talking about the news that the college entrance examination papers had been sent to the Education Bureau. This sudden message was like a lightning bolt, illuminating the darkest corners of his heart. He began to think about whether if he could see the test paper in advance, would he be able to turn around in one fell swoop and win the battle that was related to the future?
You may ask, how is this possible? Indeed, for most people it is just a flash of thought, but for Yang Bo it has become his obsession. He began to plot this almost impossible theft - stealing college entrance examination papers. From planning to action, every step is full of tension and excitement that can only be found in movies.
Finally, Yang Bo used his wisdom and some coincidental opportunities to really get the test paper. But things were far from being as simple as he imagined, and once the test papers were leaked, the entire education system was shaken. The police intervened, the investigation began, and the whole city was looking for the source of the leak. Yang Bo's inner world is contradictory, he is both excited and frightened, and constantly justifies himself, believing that this is just a means of fair play. The condemnation of conscience and the bondage of morality always lingered in his heart.
In fact, the real cause of the tragedy is far more than Yang Bo's fault alone. The excessive emphasis on grades in society, the pressure of family expectations, and the school's test-taking education are all intertwined to create a suffocating environment. In such an environment, Yang Bo is just one of the outlets, a tragic release point.
As the police investigation deepened, Yang Bo was soon located and arrested. This seemingly perfect plan did not escape the severe punishment of the law in the end. Yang Bo's impulsiveness and wrong decision-making at this moment completely changed.
In the whirlpool of public opinion, some people sympathized with Yang Bo's helplessness and pressure, while others condemned him for his short-sightedness and selfishness. Neither sympathy nor condemnation can change the facts that have already happened. The college entrance examination, a major event that affects the fate of countless families and individuals every year, requires each of us to think deeply about the problems and pressures behind it.
Just imagine, if our educational environment could be less stressful about exam-taking and more concerned about students' mental health and all-round development, perhaps, there would be no tragedy like Yang Bo. Students will also be able to face every test healthily and peacefully, whether it is the college entrance examination or other challenges in life.
Through Yang Bo's story, it is not difficult for us to find that the college entrance examination is not only an exam, but also a mirror, reflecting the values and educational outlook of society, family and even everyone. Let's learn from Yang Bo's case and think about how to better focus on and nurture children's mental health and moral growth in the pursuit of academic achievement. Only in this way can we truly achieve the fundamental purpose of education – to produce sound people.
