【新唐人2013年05月22日讯】在中国大陆，出国读大学的前景，正在渐渐黯淡。大陆出现越来越多留学归来后长期寻找工作、等待就业的所谓“海藻”和“海带”们。另一方面，最近几年，却兴起了未成年孩子出国读中学、甚至小学的“第四波留学潮”。是什么原因让这些家长提前送孩子出国接受教育﹖请看本台记者的分析报导。
《2013中国留学白皮书》资料显示，2012年中国留学生人数，在2011年总数基础上增长了21.8%，占全球总数的14%﹔2010—2011学年，赴美入读私立高中的中国学生，比五年前激增了100倍。
美国联邦调查局的统计也显示，2012年在美国持有F1签证，就读私立中学的中国留学生人数为23795人，而2008年只有4508人，4年间增长了4倍之多。
而加拿大温哥华教育局发言人海因里奇表示，在2012至2013学年，温哥华幼稚园至中学12年级，国际留学生总数达1086人，其中中国学生645人，占总数六成。与温哥华邻近的列治文市中学，2009年的国际留学生人数为450人，但到了2011至2012学年，仅中国留学生已达425人。在纽西兰，也有来自中国大陆的大量未成年留学生，最小留学生才5岁。
上世纪70年代末、80年代初，中国出现了以公派访问学者为主的第一波留学浪潮﹔四五年之后，涌现了大量以攻读硕士、博士学位为目地的自费留学生留学人群；2000年前后，则出现了逃避中国高考的第三波留学浪潮，他们中很多人家庭富裕，成绩一般。
目前的第四波留学潮是“90后”和“00”后，主要的留学国家是英美、澳新、加拿大和新加坡。
美国留学生孙宇辰：“中国无论从小升初，到初升高中，哪怕从很小的小学开始，其实无论搞什么课改、搞什么新课标，所有都是围着高考转。我个人感觉，所有在高中以及整个中国教育体制学习的学生，在某种程度上都是受害者，他享受不了美国这种多元化、比较优秀的教育体制。”
美国留学生孙宇辰还表示，现在中国有很多中产阶级以上的群体，能够负担得起美国每年超过10万以上美金的留学花费，他们有能力让孩子选择好的教育体制。但他指出，学生比较好的留学时机是在高中。
前“耶鲁大学”校长小贝诺•施密德特曾公开撰文，批判中国大学，他认为中国大学“对政治的适应，对某些人利益的迎合，损害了大学对智力和真理的追求。”
施密德特指出，“在中国权力主宰一切。文科的计划学术，更是权力对于思考的祸害，这已经将中国学者全部利诱成犬儒，他们只能内部恶斗，缺乏批评世道的道德勇气。孔孟之乡竟然充斥着一批不敢有理想的学者，令人失望。”
最近，“北京大学”光华管理学院院长张维迎说：中国教育的最大失败，不是抑制了青年人的创造性，消灭了他们的好奇心，而是使人变得虚伪，说假话不再脸红！
留学生陪读家长 崔女士：“我们送孩子出来呢，我们觉得在中国那个社会，对孩子污染非常厉害。在中国这个社会，特别是对孩子它没有一个好的导向，就是说，人与人之间除了关系和钱，它没有别的，失去了人最本性的那个——互相之间要真诚、善良。”
这位陪12岁孩子出国读书的崔女士认为，美国教育体制是按着孩子的喜好安排，教育方式搭配也很合理、人性化，而且出国还能保证孩子吃的、用的、喝的、呼吸的都是安全的，何乐而不为？
《正见网》指出，中共的教育让学生脱离了明理、明德以及对仁心与义理的理解和实践，中共编造历史，鼓吹“斗争哲学”，把学生变成了“识字不明理”、脱离中西传统文化和现代文明的新一代文盲！

Junior School Pupils Form The Fourth Wave Of Studying Abroad
In Mainland China, the views on studying abroad are dim.
More and more students returning from studying abroad have
difficulty in either finding a job or wait long term for one.
In recent years, it has formed the forth wave of studying abroad
for middle school and even primary school pupils.
The main students are juniors. Why do the parents send their
children to study abroad? Please look at the reporter’s analysis.
Data from a “2013 White Paper on China studying abroad"
showed numbers have increased 21.8% from 2011 to 2012.
It accounts for 14% of studying abroad in the world.
In semester 2010-2011, Chinese students entering US private
middle schools sharply increased 100 times over five years.
According to FBI investigation data, Chinese students holding
the F1 visa to study in private middle school number 23795.
In 2008, the number was 4508. In four years,
this has increased by four times.
In Canada, Spokesman of Vancouver Education Bureau said,
in semester 2012 -2013, between infant school to grade 12
in Vancouver, international students number 1086.
Of those, 645 are Chinese which is 60% of all.
In 2009 near Vancouver, in Richmond Secondary School,
there were 450 international students.
In semester 2011-2012, Chinese students numbers alone
went up to 425.
In new Zealand, there are also large number of
Chinese students and the youngest one is only 5-year-old.
The late 1970s and early 1980s, saw the first wave
of studying abroad, with visiting scholars.
After four or five years, large number paying students went
abroad to study master or doctoral degrees.
Since 2000, the third wave of studying abroad occurred.
The students preferred to study abroad other than join
the college entrance examinations in China.
Their achievements are ordinary and their families’ economic
situations are good.
The main part of the fourth wave was post 1990 or post 2000.
The main countries are England, US, Australia, New Zealand,
Canada and Singapore.
Sun Yuchen (overseas student in the US): “In China, all study
activities are geared around college entrance examinations.
This isfrom primary school to high school.
Either the course from the old or new course standard!
I feel that in some sense, all students in the Chinese education
system are victims.
They can’t enjoy the diversification and good education system
like the US.
Sun Yuchen also said that many middle-class groups in China
could afford to pay tuition fees over 100,000 US dollars a year.
They have the capability to choose the education
system for their children.
However, he also pointed out that the best chance
to study abroad is in high school.
Former president of Yale University, Beinuo Schmid Gaudet
has published an article that criticizes Chinese universities.
He thought that Chinese universities were “meeting politics and
profits has damaged the ideal of the university to pursue truth.
Schmid said: “Power charged everything. Through liberal arts
planning scholarships, the power destroyed thinking.
It has enticed the Chinese scholars to become cynics.
They can only fight internally and lack moral courage
to criticize politics.
It is disappointing that there are groups of scholars without
ideals in the hometown of Confucius and Mencius.”
Recently, director of Peking Guanghua School of Management
Zhang Weiying said: “The biggest failing of Chinese education
is not limiting the youth creation but eliminating their curiosities.
By making them hypocritical they will not be embarrassed by lying.
One mother Ms. Cui: “We send our children abroad;
my child is polluted in Chinese society otherwise.
In Chinese society, especially there is no good guide
for children.
That’s to say, there are nothing except money and
relationships between people.
Life has lost the fundamental things:
truthfulness and compassion.”
Ms. Cui thought that in the US education system,
things are arranged according to students’ favorites.
The education structures are also reasonable and contain humanity.
Abroad, there is guarantee safety of food and breathing clean air.
So why not study abroad?
Zhengjian website says that with the education system of the
Chinese Communist Party (CCP), students have deviated from morality and compassion.
The CCP made histories and advocated fighting philosophy.
It made students of new generation illiterate by
“knowing words but not understanding justification” and
“breaking the Chinese away from Western traditional cultures”.
