1. First of all, the eye distance is very wide, the distance between the eyebrows is also very wide, the mouth is slanting and the eyes are slanting, and the eyebrows are drooping a little. Everyone looks strange, unattractive and gives people a strong sense of discomfort. If it's just a matter of style, it's understandable. After all, everyone's aesthetic standards are different. However, when I read the textbook carefully, I found the contents surprising. For example, a primary school student wearing a red scarf looks vaguely at the "camera" and sticks out his tongue to pose as a classic scissorhands.
As a required course, showing students this strange image is not conducive to their healthy growth. The controversial textbook illustrations were designed by Wu Yong who graduated from Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts. Wu Yong once mentioned that he has a feeling for book design. Many people don't agree with this feeling of designer Wu Yong. Everyone thinks that the illustrations designed by Wu Yong are very strange and send a bad message to students.
3. The illustrations in the textbook have a great influence on students. In the 1980s and 1990s, the pictures in the textbooks were very simple, which helped students to develop the spirit of sunshine. At present, the illustrations in the primary school mathematics textbooks published by People's Education Press give people a very decadent feeling.
