京津沪三市青少年地学知识竟赛,是组织普及地学知识活动的一次尝试。这次竞赛采取了统一命题、分地区同时举行笔试的方式,各市既了解了自己考生对有关地学知识掌握的情况,也起到了相互促进、相互学习的目的。通过这次竞赛活动,启发了青少年对地学的浓厚兴趣,学到了一些书本上学不到的东西,对学生增强综合分析和灵活运用基本知识的能力是个很好锻炼。在竞赛前,三市地质学会科普委员会做了大量组织准备工作,北京举办了四次专门辅导;天津一些学校的教师还给学生复印材料、组织阅读;上海在此以前就组织进行过两次全市性的竞赛。这次竞赛共有160余所中学、千余名学生参加(团体赛人数有限制)。北京人数多,面也广,延庆、门头沟、通县、丰台等远郊区县的学校都派学生来应试。 The Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Adolescent Geoscience Knowledge Competition is an attempt to organize and popularize geoscience activities. The contest adopted a unified proposition and written examinations were held in different regions. The cities not only learned about their own knowledge of relevant geosciences, but also promoted and learned from each other. Through this competition, the young people’s interest in earth science has been inspired, and they have learned something that cannot be learned from books. It is a good exercise for students to enhance their ability to comprehensively analyze and use basic knowledge. Prior to the competition, the three cities’ Geological Society Popular Science Committee did a lot of organizational preparations. Beijing organized four special counseling sessions; teachers from some schools in Tianjin gave students copy materials and organized reading; Shanghai organized two citywide Sex contest.
