最近,胡锦涛同志在中央政治局一次集体学习时说:知识越来越成为综合国力和国际竞争力的决定性因素。我理解,这里所说的知识是指人类对自然界、对人类社会的规律性认识的科学知识。现代人,只有简单的知识和技能或初级的知识和技能已不适应当代生活的要求。 Recently, during a collective study conducted by the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, Comrade Hu Jintao said: Knowledge has increasingly become the decisive factor in the overall national strength and international competitiveness. I understand that what we mean here refers to the scientific knowledge of human beings concerning the regularity of nature and human society. Modern people, only simple knowledge and skills or primary knowledge and skills have not suited the requirements of contemporary life.
