The 4th 14 World Book Day is coming soon. However, Mr. Zhou, an office worker, and other citizens called yesterday to report that they came to the city library to study for two days this weekend, only to find that it was completely occupied by senior three students who were practicing papers and studying by themselves, but they had nowhere to sit and held books.
In order to prepare for the college entrance examination (forum), a large number of senior three students flocked to the public reading places such as the city library, eating bread and instant noodles, burying their heads in studying for the weekend, and at the same time forming contradictions with the citizens who came to read this weekend. While hoping that citizens will be considerate of students, education experts also said that this phenomenon once again highlighted the long-standing pressure of taking exams, and suggested that students take a moderate rest and meet the college entrance examination in a way of combining work and rest.
phenomenon
Chew bread and eat instant noodles.
Students are reviewing in the library.
A box of milk, a pack of biscuits and a bowl of instant noodles are the meals of Xiaowen, a senior three student in Shishi Middle School. At 9 o'clock in the morning, she and several classmates arrived at the reader's study room on the third floor of the city library on time and began their "weekend life". Xiaowen's goal in the library this day is to do at least two sets of sprint training questions for the college entrance examination.
Xiaowen is just one of many senior three students who choose to give up the weekend and go to the library to prepare for the college entrance examination.
Yesterday morning 1 1 or so, when the reporter walked into the periodical reading room on the fourth floor of Chengdu Library, although it was near lunch time, the reading room was still crowded with people. Looking around, there are almost all "young readers" here, but instead of popular magazines, comics, novels and other books in the library, they are books and papers related to the college entrance examination, such as "sprint questions for the 2009 college entrance examination" and "English (forum) all-round questions". Only the students' schoolbags can be seen on the schoolbag rack at the entrance of the reading room. "3, 6 and 9 are all senior three students." A senior three student in Shishi Middle School who is busy doing chemistry problems told the reporter softly. The reporter counted carefully, and the reading room has a total of 137 seats, and 94 students are burying their heads in reading. Most of the remaining seats are occupied by textbooks-"They (the owners of textbooks) have gone to eat and will be back soon." A student said.
Not only is this reading room overcrowded, but the reader's study room on the third floor of the city library is almost occupied by the student army. At noon 12, some students read books while eating cookies, and some students chose instant noodles to satisfy their hunger.

Student: The learning efficiency of the library is very high.
Citizen: No seats.
According to the reporter's investigation, during the weekend, in addition to the municipal library, libraries in Jinniu, Jinjiang and Wuhou also welcomed a large number of senior three students.
Yesterday afternoon 1, the reporter went to the jinniu district Library on Yingmenkou Road. In the periodical and newspaper reading room on the second floor, there are 2 1 people reading here, half of whom are self-study students.
"Self-study in the library is efficient, and I am too lazy to manage myself at home." Kobayashi (pseudonym), a senior two girl, goes to the jinniu district Library for self-study with her classmates every weekend, staying for a whole day at a time until it closes. This is her compulsory course. She said that she can finish her homework quickly every time in the library, so that she can have more rest time to do her favorite things in the evening. When talking to the reporter, the girl's eyes never left her open notebook. "My parents don't know that I come to the library for self-study on weekends. They actually pay more attention to cultivating my independent living ability, but I have never relaxed my requirements for myself. "
According to a student from Shishi Middle School who asked not to be named, there is a reason why students choose public libraries instead of going back to school classrooms for self-study at night or on weekends. First of all, staying in the classroom from morning till night every day will inevitably make you tired of this familiar environment, so I hope to find a fresh place to adjust. The listed library is next to the school, which is very convenient. Secondly, the key to the classroom is kept by a special person. If you want to go back to school for self-study on weekends, you must find someone to open the door, which is particularly troublesome. Sometimes I want to read more books, but it's time to close the classroom door. In addition, in public libraries, students are very conscious and never talk loudly, but in class, everyone is more free and unrestrained, often fighting, and the learning efficiency is very low.
At 2 pm, 67-year-old Mr. Gu strolled around People's Park for a while, and then went to the city library to read magazines. But he found that several reading rooms were full of students and had to leave: "No way, it's not easy for children without seats. Let them learn! " "
Similarly, Mr. Zhou and others who love reading have also encountered such embarrassment. They came to the library to read, but they couldn't find a seat. "I think a municipal library has become a place for senior three students to prepare for exams, which is not appropriate." Teacher Zhou said that he understood students' efforts to study hard for the college entrance examination, but he didn't want to see public reading places become "school libraries or classrooms".

Examination pressure
Senior three students should pay more attention to rest.
Ms. Wu, the parent who picked up the children at the gate of the city library yesterday afternoon, said that she and her husband did not force the children to come here for self-study. "We are also very happy to see our children working so hard, but we are also reminding our children to combine work and rest!"
The reporter contacted an English teacher at Shishi Middle School. According to him, in the face of the pressure of entering a higher school and fierce competition, students go to places like public libraries for self-study and can supervise each other, which is good for improving their grades.
Yang Lizhi, director of the Lecture Propaganda Department of the Municipal Library, said that it has been a "convention" for senior three students to come to the library for self-study for many years. The library is a public resource, and anyone has the right to come here to read. I hope ordinary readers can be more considerate, such as borrowing books and reading them at home.
You Yongheng, dean of the Teacher Education College of Sichuan Normal University, said that society, parents and even schools put too much pressure on children. Even to prepare for the college entrance examination, it is not a smart way to study at the expense of weekend study.
