    Wang Jiaming from Beijing Chenjinglun High School says he is a lucky boy．He’s happy that he’s sitting the senior high school entrance exam in 2014 instead of 2016．

    On October 22，Beijing Municipal Commission of Education announced that，from 2016，the English scores in the senior high school entrance exam will be reduced from 120 to 100．Of the 100 points，the listening scores will increase to 50．Meanwhile，the points for Chinese will increase from 120 to 150．

    “The change won’t affect me．I feel so lucky becauseEnglish is my strongest subject，”said Wang．Why such a change?“It places the importance on Chinese in our study and reduces students’pressure，”said Li Yi，a spokesman of the commission．

    “The change will also push us to pay attention to the practical usage of English，”said Li．“Students will be encouraged to learn to understand English menus and read English news on mobile phones．”

    There isn’t news that other cities will have the same change．But several places are making changes to English tests in the college entrance exams．

    For example，Shandong is considering taking out the listening part of the English exam in its Gaokao．But，“being tested for less points doesn t mean the subject can be taken lightly，”Bai Ping wrote in China Daily．

    English has long been the world’s most commonly used language．Wang Jiaming said he understood the change．

    “Chinese，not English，is our mother tongue，”he said．“but still，I think English is both interesting and useful．”
