目前我國高考競爭愈演愈烈。每年考生人數近300萬，而錄取率在40%以下，多數考生肯定要落選。這給考生、考生的家庭和學校，乃至整個社會，都造成了很大的壓力，引發了一些社會問題。此外，不同類型或特點的考生用同一模式和難度的試卷，有欠公允;三天的考試成績便決定一個人的未來命運，亦不夠合理。如何解決這些問題，改革現行的高考制度?我的意見是。
Statistics show that no more than 40% of people who take the college entrance exams pass. Because a college education is regarded as the key to a successful career, this puts enormous pressure on the applicants. It also causes social problems, as those who fail consider that they have disgraced their families.
It seems to me that the exams are unfair, for three reasons: First, applicants with different abilities are faced with the same type of exam paper, second, the results of a mere three days of examination affect the applicants whole future; and third, applicants who can afford private tutors usually score higher marks than those who are poorer, but perhaps more intelligent.
To improve the system of college entrance exams, I suggest the following steps: the exam papers should be graded to take into account the different levels of ability and the different backgrounds of the applicants; in addition to the actual exam, a complete assessment of the applicants educational achievements should be made; and tutoring in examination techniques should be made available to all.
