爲糾正課文配圖 五年級小學生'叫板'人教社
A Beijing primary school student recently wrote to the People's Education Press(PEP) for answers after she found the color of a magistrate's official habit illustrated in a Chinese textbook was historically inaccurate.
近日，北京市一名小學生髮現語文課本上一幅配圖當中的知縣官服顏色存在歷史性錯誤，隨後她就致信人民教育出版社尋求答案。The girl, Zhang Qiushi, pointed out in class that the color of magistrates' official habits during the Song Dynasty (960-1279) were turquoise, and not purple as shown in the text book.
這個名叫張秋實的女孩在課堂上指出，宋朝（960-1279）知縣的官服應該是青綠色的，而不是教科書上的紫色。Meanwhile she said that the two wings of the official headgear were also inconsistent with history, reported Beijing Youth Daily.
據《北京青年報》報道，張秋實還表示，知縣的官帽也與歷史不符。
The Chinese Editorial Room of PEP has forwarded the problem to experts for verification. If confirmed, the text books will be revised.
人民教育出版社語文編輯室已經將問題反映給專家們進行覈實。如果確認無誤，該教材將進行修訂。"It's not surprising that text book is revised constantly. It's a problem with an illustration this time, and we hope to see the result after New Year's Day," said a director with PEP.
人教社一位負責人表示：“教材本來就需要不斷地修訂。這次配圖的問題，我們希望在元旦以後能有一個結果。”Zhang is now in grade five at a Beijing primary school. "She loves reading history books and knows many idioms. Though being very young, she has read many books of Lu Xun and is glad to share with us her ideas," said Ms Wang, one of Zhang's teachers.
張秋實現在在北京市一所小學上五年級。她的老師王老師說道：“張秋實同學平常就愛看歷史書，知道許多成語故事。儘管年齡很小，但是她已經讀了許多魯迅的著作，並且樂意與他人分享自己的見解。”Zhang found the mistake in the illustration for an idiom story titled "Shui Di Shi Chuan", which means constant dripping wears away the stone.
據悉，張秋實同學是在題爲《水滴石穿》（即通過持續的滴水磨損石頭）的成語故事當中發現了該配圖錯誤。
