Reflections after watching the movie College Entrance Examination 1977

On the evening of March 30, I watched the new film "College Entrance Examination 1977" in the Picture and Text 400 lecture hall. After watching it, I was deeply moved. I think both the educated youth back then and us today will be deeply shocked after watching this film. Anyone who has struggled to pursue their dreams and future life will be moved by it.

The film tells the story of a group of educated youths who, after learning that the college entrance examination system was restored, worked together and encouraged each other to get into college. Although 30 years have passed and things have changed, as people who have struggled like them, we can easily understand the various "unbelievable" things they did to prepare for the college entrance examination: sneaking into the sealed library Stealing books; staying up late at night, relying on the weak light of kerosene lamps to review mathematics, physics and chemistry; for the sake of his daughter, his father traveled all the way from Shanghai to Heilongjiang to send review materials and "certificates"; resisted the "qualification examination" proposed by the Farm Revolutionary Committee They even went on a collective hunger strike; in order to rush to the county town to take the exam, they got up early in the winter, and the tractor broke down on the way to the train station, so they simply ran to the train station. It was a difficult journey, but they encouraged each other, cheered each other up, helped each other, and supported each other. ——This can be regarded as a microcosm of their hard preparation and review for the tough battle of the college entrance examination. Their fundamental purpose for doing this is the same: to go to college, to live a good life in the future, to change their own destiny and the destiny of the entire family - there is no generational difference, and I even believe that if we are also in In that environment, we are likely to naturally behave the same way as they did.

There is a sentence in the film that the resumption of the college entrance examination is more important than the college entrance examination itself. This sentence reminded me of an article - "What to study in college?" 》Why do we enter the university and start our college life? A college graduate majoring in mechanical and electrical can operate and maintain a machine, but a skilled technician with only a junior high school degree can still operate it, even better than a college student; a college student who graduated from the foreign language department can speak fluent foreign languages ??and can Translate long foreign language materials into Chinese, but a person who has been selling baked sweet potatoes in a foreign country for several years can also speak foreign languages, even more authentically than a college student; a medical school graduate can pick up a stethoscope to see a patient, Millions of medical instruments can be used to diagnose a patient's disease. However, many technical secondary school graduates from health schools can still use a scalpel after accumulating several years of experience. Ancient Chinese medicine practitioners did not have the knowledge of modern medicine, but they can still By using a hanging silk thread to feel the pulse, one can prescribe medicine to the patient and ensure that the medicine will cure the disease. Therefore, I feel that when entering college, learning book knowledge is not everything in college. What is more important is learning to learn and learn how to analyze and solve problems. This is a proactive, efficient, and independent ability to analyze and think. Rather than a passive, mechanical, and copy-cat memory ability. What society needs is precisely this kind of systematic analysis ability of college students. No matter what industry you work in, the problems you face are complex and ever-changing. If you don’t have the ability to systematically analyze and think independently, even if you swallow all the books, even if you get first place in every final exam during college, you will not be able to do it. It’s also absolutely impossible to stand out at work.

But looking back at our current situation, the objective material conditions are many times better than those of the past, and the university has also expanded its enrollment many times. It can be said that the difficulty of getting into university today is far less than it was 30 years ago, and the competition is also less intense. We have learned a lot, but compared with them, we seem to be lacking something - we do not have the enthusiasm to study that they had when they were studying. Some people may say that times have changed, but I think the spirit of pursuing knowledge will never go out of style, and I think the ability to learn will always be important.

Let’s take the things around us. In the morning, we refuse to get up early in order to sleep in. We are late for class and bring breakfast just bought from the cafeteria; Next to you; you feel that your sleep last night was not enough, so you lie down on the table to "catch up on sleep", or you forget that there is a class at all, and continue to "make love" with the pillow on the bed; after class, you copy each other's homework to solve, or I directly ignored the homework assigned by the teacher; the dormitory was full of garbage, and it felt like walking in space when I stepped on it, and the smell was overwhelming as soon as I entered the door; I talked on the phone and competed with who had the longer call list every month; I spent my spare time with the computer in the evening, or "World of Warcraft", or "Fantasy Westward Journey", or chatting with girls on QQ, and when it's lights out time, you have to rely on the battery of your laptop for another two or three hours - this is also the progress of technology; Entering the examination room with small notes, or looking left and right, whispering to each other... This is the real college life of some college students today. In the past 30 years, with the rapid development of science and technology, material life has indeed become a lot richer, but we cannot forget the inherent meaning of the three words "going to college" - to be able to solve problems independently in the future, to cultivate one's moral character, and to cultivate one's own personality. If you are so decadent all day long, you are wasting your parents' money, your teachers' energy, your country's resources, and your own future. No matter how you say it, you are wasting your parents' money. I would also like to advise these people to turn around and stop joking with their future. Even God cannot afford such a joke.

This is what I thought after watching the movie "College Entrance Examination 1977". From the perspective of film art, this film has a twists and turns plot, distinct characters, clear clues, and novel expression techniques. What is even more commendable is that it starts from some small people and reflects the important history of restoring the college entrance examination system. event. As a good inspirational film that promotes the main theme, I think it can play a greater role if it can be introduced to middle school campuses.
