The college entrance examination will be released one after another, and the different arrangements of tens of millions of candidates under the mouse of cities, schools and majors will bring them their own different possibilities. Some netizens on social media complained that "I want to report Chinese and history, but my parents feel that there is no future."
Is the liberal arts really useful? Professional is marginalized, unreasonable, no money, not easy to find jobs, self -study, etc. Many people who come here will persuade. Among these speculative reasons, except for some imagination and prejudice, employment weakness is indeed reality. But judging professional value with salary returns, the narrow logic itself has problems.
Talking about the future of science and technology and the world, no one denies the importance of critical thinking, creativity, and empathy. For individuals, it is these abilities that allow you to avoid being replaced by machines in the future. For a society To say, asking and exploring some "virtual" issues are the prerequisite for our future challenges. And aren't these, aren't all liberal arts focusing on at least the content of aiming to be cultivated?

People talk about "liberal arts useless". At some times, it is not the value of liberal arts, and it is more an expression of less than the ideal attitude towards liberal arts education. The latter has nothing to do with the values of the long -term light text of society. Compared with the "dispute between art and sciences", how to make young people who recognize and love liberal arts have the opportunity to choose and place their dreams, it may be more important.
