答案     We can often hear the news that an American scientist or a Poland researcher get the Nobel Prize for certain inventions or findings, but China, with the greatest population in the world and a large number of research workers, yet has not produced a single Nobel Prize winner so far. There are various reasons for that.
    First, there are serious problems in the educational system in China. The Chinese education has long been examination-oriented, which means that students are just forced to swallow the existing knowledge, without thinking much about it. Thus, the researchers that the system fostered are lacking in a sense of creativity.
    Second, there is too little academic communication between China and the outside world.  Due to some historical reasons, China had been isolated from the outside world. Thus it lags behind other countries in science and technology. So what scientists in China are doing now is mainly a repeat of their western counterparts.
    Realizing the problems, the government has made many adjustments: the quality-oriented education is gradually taking the place of the examination-oriented one and a great number of leading technology and experts from the foreign countries are brought in. So, it’s certain that in the near future there will be Nobel Prize winners in China.
