China has the largest population in learning English globally. Statistics show that over 400 millions people are learning English, accounting for one third of the total population in China. At present, elementary schools, even kindergartens, are offering English courses. English learning runs through the entire study process of Chinese students, and English is a subject every Chinese student must learn.

Many people think that the score for English exam in college entrance examination should be reduced and the subject of Chinese should be emphasized, intending to draw more people's attention to their mother tongue.
