Have you noticed that since the birth of the Nobel Prize, most of the winners are from europium and America while no one is from China (except for Mo Yan, who won the literature prize in 2012)? As stated, the United States occupies less than 5% of the worlds population, exactly seventy percent of the winners are from US while China that holds one fifth of the world population has only one winner educated in mainland since 1949. What exactly led to vex situation of Chinas education system? I think China stick out not foster a Nobel Prize winner because of overly much homework, the unreasonable education system, and universities not professional enough academic atmosphere.The first reason is that the burden of students today is heavier and heavier. For example, too much homework occupies major parts of students spare time. Due to it, students become weighed down with the homework. What is worse, too much homework makes students be afraid of study and exams, which can result in the loss of interest of study. So we can conclude that what too much homework brings to students is not the chance to exercise themselves but excuses for them to frustrate study. Gradually they regard the process of doing homework as finishing an unwilling mission rather than a way to check up drawbacks in study, which limits the extra time in which students exercise the ability of thinking, querying, and practicing. If students don not have a right attitude towards homework and study, maybe they won not be serious about academic explore either when they work in their own fields.Another reason is that the unreasonable education system also bestows to the present situation. Since the recovery of college entrance exam system, the concepts of education have... ... entertainment. Our politics, religion, journalism, sports, education and business are willing to become a vassal of entertainment. When that happens, even doing the serious research will become a king of trick to attract peoples attention and then fall into jokes.In a word, these three factors contribute to the present situation of Chinas education system. The downside of the Asian system is that the national standards do not do much to foster creativity Glenn Zorpette (n.d) We as yet have a long way to go to perfect our system of developing ability such as E.D.Hirsch Jr (1995) higher order skills, self look on, metcognitive skills, critical-thinking skills, mere facts which are qualified for society development. I hope one day I can hear the news where a scientist or a writer educated in the mainland of china not other countries win the Nobel Prize.
