　　初赛试题：

　　Directions: Some people argue that English has been overemphasized in China. It seems that almost everything from entering a high school or university to finding a job or getting a promotion depends on one’s mastery of English. This has misled students at schools and universities to spend too much of their time on English rather than on other subjects or their major area studies. Do you agree with this view? Write an essay of approximately 300 words to support your view.
