我們接到許多讀者來信,詢問有關數学競賽的間題,12月22日中國青年報和12月26日光明日報刊載了我國著名數学家華罗庚先生的文章,大家可以从文章中了解到这次競賽的意义,另外我們还就讀者提出的一些問題,簡單地答覆一下。这次數学競賽是中國數學会理事会發起的,高等教育部、教育部也同意,决定在1966年举办,我國过去没有举办过數学競賽,这次只準备在北京和少數大城市進行試办,等取得輕验後,再逐步推廣,12月11日成立了数学競賽委員会,选出華罗庚、傅种孫,段学復等12人为委員,並推选華罗庚为委員会主席。 數学競賽是一种業餘的学術性活動,競賽的目的是为了激發青年学生学習數学的兴趣,並从競賽中發現一些在數学学習方面有特殊才能的学生,好及早注意对他們的培养和教育,这不仅可以帮助中学提高數学教学質 We have received many letters from readers asking questions about the math contest. The China Youth Daily on December 22 and the Guangming Daily on December 26 published an article by Mr. Hua Luogeng, a famous mathematician in our country. From the article, we can understand The significance of this competition, in addition we also asked some questions raised by readers, simply reply. The mathematics competition was initiated by the China Mathematical Society’s governing council. The Ministry of Higher Education and the Ministry of Education also agreed to hold the math contest in 1966. My country did not hold a math contest in the past. This time it is only going to be piloted in Beijing and a few large cities , Etc. After obtaining the light test, it was gradually popularized. On December 11, a mathematics competition committee was set up to elect 12 members including Hua Luogeng, Fu Ssuen-sun and Duan Xuefu, and elected Hua Luogeng as chairman of the committee. The mathematics competition is an amateur academic activity. The purpose of the competition is to stimulate young students’ interest in learning mathematics and to find some students with special talents in mathematics learning from the competition so that they can pay attention to their cultivation as early as possible And education, which can not only help improve secondary mathematics teaching quality
