These days, a student’s speech at the Tsinghua graduation ceremony caused a lot of discussions.

Her name is Zhang Wei and she is from a national poverty-stricken county in Gansu. She mentioned that she went to the provincial capital for the first time to participate in the experimental part of the physics competition, but she had never seen those instruments. When the instrument switch was found, the experiment time had already arrived.

“That was the first time I realized that the educational differences in different regions were so great,” she said in her speech.

Even if she tried hard to get into Tsinghua, she still did not get rid of the gap - because the foundation is weak, her calculus assignments are three or four times longer than others, the campaign squad leader is unsuccessful, and the registration practice leader has failed... ...

She thought of what Sun Shaoping said in "The Ordinary World":

"An ordinary and ordinary person in the ordinary world will always feel overwhelmed by the waves of life. Will you be drowned? Unless you are willing to indulge in this."

Later, she participated in the debate, the team won the championship, when the squad leader, guided the practice detachment...

Today, when the mobility of the class is slowing down and the voice of "the cold door is hard to come out of the house" is so raging, this voice has indeed been long gone.

In each person, there is more or less a gap in education. Just turned to the new school, when you first entered the workplace, it is the easiest to see the gap.

The embarrassment at that time may have been remembered for a long time.

“I always thought that I was the top English student in my class. After I entered the company, I couldn’t understand the English that my colleagues said.”

- Salsa, 23 years old, human resources

"When my classmates took Woody Allen's English-language autobiography, I only knew Zhang Yimou, and I was still worried about the fourth grade."

- Ocean, 26 years old, designer

“London’s landlord hired a cleaning cleaner, cleaning, and chatting. I’ve heard about their topic, the history of astronomy, dinosaurs, and medicine...”

- Xinjiang

"I only know the knowledge of textbooks when I was a child. In the first year of work, my colleagues invited me to see the exhibition. It was the first time I saw the exhibition, and I was at a loss in the center of the venue. Now it’s been about 8 years since that day. I often think of that day."

——Shuang, 34 years old, engineering construction state enterprise staff

"After entering the company, my colleagues, a question is a graduate student. I dare not introduce myself. In the beginning, self-confidence can not represent everything, but soon they found that they are not only good at school but also professional. I am right. When some things are expressed, they look at me with a sly look, just like watching a baby talk.

——Cat Food Weijia, 23 years old, machinery manufacturing industry

“The company came to an internship with a younger brother studying in the United States. It is the son of a friend of the boss. Every day, he strolls around the office and chats with each colleague... We all thought that he was too busy, but he was putting the company’s operational processes Learn it all over and think about the various ways he thinks are better. By contrast, I feel like a working robot."

In the survey, many people mentioned that the "gap" is due to the vision and environment, but many of them are limited to the educational resources at that time.

What will happen to those who have crossed the chasm?

Find your rhythm and no longer integrate for integration:

"After going to college, I found that I was much less knowledgeable than my roommate. I didn't know a lot of things. There was no topic to talk about. I cried that night and thought of what to do in the future?

But later, I didn't spend time learning about the topics they were talking about to integrate them. I ended up calming down, just following my study plan a little bit... I am very glad that the choice at the time. ”

- Liao Luo

At each stage, find a key to cross the gap and talk to others

Ma Xiaocun, 36, is a food and beverage investor. When he told others about his early years in Beijing, many of his friends did not believe that he was talking about the 50s and 60s.

"I was born in a small village in Luliang Mountain, Shanxi Province. I saw water once a year, which is a summer flood.

From the age of ten, I always feel that I am facing a desperate situation. I often go to a small hill across the village entrance to see the sunset, and the sun is like blood. At that time, I felt that I must come out through studying. I want to leave my hometown and never come back.

But most people have no way to escape. Half of my classmates in my class are already dead.

Some graduated from elementary school and helped their parents to fall back on the terraces after they had cropped their crops. Some went to the coal mines and coal was killed by cars, and some were killed by coal.

I went to the county in junior high school, and the educational conditions were not too good. Even English was taught in dialects.

Three years of study, there is no color. The only two colors, one is that one day I suddenly heard the violin concerto of "Liang Zhu" on the radio; the other is the "Unbearable Lightness in Life" I found in the bookstore.

For the first time, I know that the heaviest in life is not necessarily a death. At the end of the story, the protagonist entered a state of being very incompetent, boring and numb, and I suddenly found out that life in the small county town is also the same.

The main road of the county is about one kilometer long, and you can see the south from the north. I suddenly realized: I have to go far.

After trying to understand these things, I have been a student with average grades from the first day to the second day, and suddenly I took first place in the school in the third year.

Then I went to the provincial capital.

When I first entered university, people in big cities were a little despised from these small places. I laughed at me every day. I thought about a trick. I ruled him - telling him a ghost story in the middle of the night.

Later, when I went to the UK to study, I also had obstacles to integration because my English was not good. I learned a lot of recipes online, and I cook for my classmates every week. So people from all countries who don't recognize them come to eat. I only have to cook, and the young boys from all over the world smiled. ”

Looking back on this road, I asked Ma Xiaocun how to overcome obstacles and gaps at various stages.

He said that it was because of the last discovery, "No matter where you are born, human nature is the same."

"Thinking about human nature, you can find the key to connecting each other, you can eliminate inferiority and separation, and break that gap and barrier."

He said that there is only one way in which people can make a difference: "Do you ask yourself?"

“The people in the mountain village and the people in London have the right to ask questions. If you are not willing to ask questions, even the best educational resources will not be useful to you. At the moment you ask questions, many things will change.

Give more thoughts, or more paving, more people will go over

Relative to Ma Xiaocun, I decided to go out very early. The entrepreneurs are mostly ignorant and do not feel the "gap". However, he concluded that it was because the grades were very good and they went step by step. Now looking back, they are both lucky and dangerous.

"The primary school teacher in a nearby peasant and one person has two or three courses. The art is taught by a mathematics teacher. Once I was in class, I painted a car that was not like painting. He was directly slammed on the podium and took a stick. Since then, he has been extremely disgusted with painting.

It didn't feel so serious at the time, and life around me was like this.

But I still slowly saw the gap. For example, I was selected to go to the county to go to the game. The first time I stayed at the hotel, the faucet didn't know how to use it. Several people excitedly played the phone, causing the test to fall asleep. Just go back with a small prize.

Later I learned that this is very lucky.

At that time, there was a very clever classmate who accidentally indulged in the game hall. After junior high school did not finish reading, he dropped out of school. Soon there was no news. A very embarrassing girl at the same table, parents working in the distance, she lived with her grandfather, life is probably too boring, and soon dropped out of school, a few years later became a young lady's ‘miss.’

Red Star later worked in Beijing. It seems to have crossed the "gap", but in the past, this action has shaped him: it seems to be easy and proud along the way, but the character is always invisibly nervous and not open enough...

He now has children, and he likes to “good” with his children. He wants children to grow more relaxed.

He also often remembers the early classmates, family members, and the different possibilities that education brings to them:

“In the key middle schools, universities, every step of the way, there are a lot of ‘almost people’ around me. You can’t say where they’re ‘bad’.

Just like my sister, because I think I can go to college, she is not necessarily, just get off the road and give way. So for many years, she bought me a novel, copied the lyrics, and chose clothes. She led me in front, but as soon as she shook God, she was already 'squatting' behind, what I thought now, she might not I can understand it again.

If they had more adequate educational conditions in the past and could know more about the outside world, today's life must be very different. ”

Education is still changing our lives.

Especially in this era of lifelong learning, curious people will be able to see the vast world, and those who repent will surely have a "new chance."

With the help of technology, the imbalance of educational resources is improving a little bit, and more possibilities are happening. This is one of the most exciting things in today's society. Those who leave school too early can regain their knowledge through online channels, and those who have finished their education can also get re-learning opportunities through various media at any time.

Think about the people who were blocked by the chaos in those years. If they could get even more help from society and schools in the past?

When talking about the past, Ma Xiaocun once said, "In that environment, everyone thinks that you can pass the education test, that is, go one step forward, not test it out, it is fate."

But this fate - the pressure brought about by resource imbalances can be changed.

They should not be expected to rely on personal efforts, groping and rolling in their lives, and lucky to squeeze out from a narrow door.

They should be given wider doors and more passages.
