The college entrance examination is a familiar exam in China, because the college entrance examination is a necessary way for many students to go to college.
The college entrance examination is the abbreviation of the "national unified examination for admission to ordinary colleges and universities", and the college entrance examination is a very important talent selection examination after the abolition of the ancient imperial examination system in 1905.
In 1936, there were nearly 100 universities in China, however, the college entrance examination at this time was still the independent proposition of each university, and students could also freely choose to apply for multiple universities, at the same time, a person could also be admitted to multiple universities, and which university to go to in the end depended entirely on the candidates.
This system lasted until 1952, and since then, the country has begun to establish a unified enrollment and unified examination method for all colleges and universities, which makes the college entrance examination appear more fair.
However, this college entrance examination system lasted until 1966, due to various reasons, the college entrance examination was gradually cancelled, and going to college also became a recommendation system, which had a great impact on the development of education in China.
It was not until 1977 that the college entrance examination was finally restored, and this time after the college entrance examination was restored, it can be said that it saved Chinese education and changed the fate of millions of Chinese intellectuals.
Therefore, the resumption of the college entrance examination in 1977 has a far-reaching impact and is of great significance.
The 1977 college entrance examination was held on October 21, and the examination was divided into two subjects: literature and history and science and engineering.
Subjects in the Literature and History Examination: Politics, Language, Mathematics, History (History and Geography);
Science and engineering examination subjects: Politics, Chinese, Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry (Physics and Chemistry).
However, there is a big "bright spot", that is, although the liberal arts and sciences have to test the language, but the requirements are completely different, some netizens said after reading it, really envy the science students.
Below, let's look at a few sets of 1977 high exam questions, you can feel the difficulty for yourself, see if you let yourself go to the test, how many points can you score?
Below is a set of 1977 Shandong provincial language examination papers.
By reading this set of test papers, we can find that there are only 3 big questions in total, the first question is composition, the second question is word explanation, and the third question is the text and punctuation, and then translated into Chinese.
These three questions, probably the most difficult should be the third question, because the punctuation of the text is mainly to examine the text of the sentence, if there is a problem with the sentence, then the next step of translation into Chinese will be difficult, the translation is not accurate or can not be translated at all.
However, it doesn't matter if the translation can't be translated, because if you look carefully at the notes in the examination paper (science candidates only compose, liberal arts candidates do the whole work), so for this set of language test questions, the larger one may only be liberal arts students, because science students do not need to do the next two questions, only write one essay.
After reading this set of Chinese test papers, let's look at another set of English test papers.
To be honest, as a college student, after reading this set of English test papers, I really don't think it is easy, especially the final fifth question Chinese translated into English, there are many professional words in this question, which may not necessarily be translated now.
I don't know, how difficult do you think this set of questions is?
After reading the Chinese, English, let's take a look at the math problems of this year's college entrance examination.
The math test paper is the same as now, the arts and sciences are different, the sciences are more difficult, and we look at the more difficult science math papers.
Although this set of science and mathematics problems is not very difficult compared with the current questions, if combined with the background of the exam in that year, everyone will certainly not feel how easy it is.
Because, this is the first college entrance examination ten years after the college entrance examination, and many students who have taken the test may not have read books for a long time and have not done the questions.
Therefore, for the candidates at that time, it was not simple at all, and it can be described as very difficult.
In fact, the real difficulty is not the exam questions, but the fierce competition from nearly 5.7 million test takers.
Through some statistics, we can find that in 1977, the number of candidates who took the college entrance examination was as high as 5.7 million, but the number of final admissions was only 270,000, the lowest since 1977, only 4.8%, that is, less than 5 out of 100 people were able to go to college.
In addition, the number of people who participated in the college entrance examination this year also belonged to a relatively large number, just in 1977 and 1978, more than 10 million people participated in the college entrance examination, after 1978, the number of college entrance examinations began to decline year by year, until 1984, the number of college entrance examinations was only 1.64 million, and the number of admissions was 480,000, and the admission rate has reached 29%.
Therefore, 1977 can be described as the "most difficult" college entrance examination in history, and it is also a college entrance examination of great significance, and many people have changed their fate because of this college entrance examination.
The above is to take everyone to understand some of the historical knowledge about the 1977 college entrance examination and the college entrance examination topics, understand the history, understand the difficulty of the college entrance examination reform, and help cherish the good learning opportunities under the times and the college entrance examination system that is not easy.
