高考對網絡用語說“不”

2007年的考綱規定，高考作文里若出現網絡用語可能會被扣分，這引起了社會上針對網絡語言存在是否合理的爭論。無論誰對誰錯，網絡語言在年輕人中盛行，從而從某種程度上占據了正統語言的位置，這是不爭的事實。國家考試的態度正反應了語言學界對網絡語言的看法。

Students are prohibited from using hard-to-understandInternet termsin their compositions during the national College Entrance Examination in 2007, or facemark deductions.
That is the message delivered in the "Outline for National College Entrance Examination in 2007" issued yesterday across the country.
Internet terms refer to words and expressions that were created by online web surfers based on dialects or similarities in pronunciation.
These expressions are rampant in daily use among teenagers and even adults. The state media are flooded with stories that lash out at abusive Internet terms.
A report on China web portal sina.com said a composition written by a middle school student in central China was rife with these intricate Internet terms, which are a fad among students, such as 'GG' (literally meaning elder brother), 'Ou' (I), 'Sauce Purple' (so) and 'KPM' ( a combo word of Kentucky Fried Chicken, Pizza Hut and McDonalds).
Expertsplay downthe use of Internet terms among students, a group that is considered to lack judgment and easily succumb to peer pressure.
Director of the Linguistic Department at Huazhong Normal University in the central province of Hubei Wu Zhenguo said students should be prudent while using Internet terms.
Committee director of the China Association of Lexicography Zhou Mingjian said in a report from the official Xinhua News Agency that Internet terms cannot be used as formal expressions and students are discouraged from using them because once they are accustomed to it, it will be hard to get rid of the habit.
Comments from Wu and Zhou will inevitably meet strong opposition from middle school students, who account for 32.3 percent of China's 137 million Internet users.
Beijing No 25 Middle School student Li Menghui said Internet language is simple and appealing. "Most students use these terms when theysurf the Internet."
"You will be laughed at if you can't keep up with the fad," said Li.
However, Li is cautious about when she uses the terms.
"I am afraid that my teacher cannot understand them, so I will not use them in my composition," said Li.
