近年来，国人的舆论朝向似乎走向了一个歧路。每当与中国有仇恨的国家陷入不好的境地。中国人就似乎丧失了应有的理性与人文关怀，站在制高点幸灾乐祸。无情嘲讽。比如日本大地震。国人在事后的第一反应竟然不是对死去的生灵感到痛惜，而是大呼痛快。似乎在地震中，死的人数越多，就越能为国家泄恨一样。但其实在地震中死去的只是无辜的百姓，是一条条鲜活的生命。有人对生命的态度，可以说如果事不关己就冷漠无比。就如新闻中被暴打致死的女性同胞，不仅得不到国人的同情，虽然成为所谓爱国卫道士的抨击对象，引来冷嘲热讽，只不禁令人想起鲁迅笔下国人围观同胞被枪***的.情景。在中国经济发展了几十年的今天，国人的道德与良知还是没有一丁点进步，甚至出现了所谓的倒退。这是不是让人值得反思的事情，这不仅值得反思，细思起来还让人觉得惶恐，如果这种麻木不仁的舆论盛行，那我们的国家将会变成什么样子可想而知。
拒绝麻木不仁，回归理性。不要让所谓的爱国情怀成为你心理阴暗面宣泄的理由。

唐代书法家怀素以草书著称于世，人称“草圣”。他的草书，气势雄浑豪放有“骤雨狂风”之势。
他幼年为僧，寺院附近种值有一万多株芭蕉，每日摘采蕉叶练字。蕉叶用完了就用浅色漆盘和方木板练字，写满字迹后，擦掉再练。久而久之，竟把漆盘 和木板磨穿了。寺院的墙壁上，家具上，连僧人做袈裟的布上都写满了字。他每日勤奋刻苦练字，用秃了许多毛笔，堆集起来埋在山下，名曰“笔冢”。

The two pictures look so similar at one glance, but they are totally different. In the first picture, a peasant boy, carrying a heavy bundle of rice straw is out of breath under the great pressure. His hope is to have a school to attend. In the second picture, a student is on his way home from school, a heavy bag of books on his back. What he wishes is that he didn’t have to go to school any more. How can the two boys at the same age have such different ideas about attending school?
The two pictures show some problems in the present education system in China. In the poor countryside, especially in some western parts of China, the education is also poor. There are no buildings for classrooms, let alone good teachers. Children there cannot have regular education. They are sometimes forced to leave their studies because their families cannot afford the necessary fees. However, the situation is totally different in the cities. Almost all the children in the cities can have regular education. They can enjoy the bright classrooms and adequate facilities. But they have their own problems. What they face is the endless homework, which puts so much pressure on them that some students don’t want to continue their studies.
Given the problems above, our government has taken some measures. “The Hope Project” has been in operation to ensure that children in the poor areas can achieve education. Some strategies have also been put into force to reduce the pressure on the students. Teachers are asked not to give too much homework. Emphasis should be put on the improvement of the quality of the students. However, there is a long way to go in the improvement of our education conditions. The whole society should be mobilized to make some contributions to our education.
