Restoration of college?entrance?examination Background Mao Zedong feared that the?reformist?economic policies of Deng Xiaoping and Liu Shaoqi could lead to restoration of capitalism and end the Chinese Revolution . For this and other reasons, Mao launched the?cultural Revolution?in 1966, during which Deng fell out of favor and was forced to retire from all his positions. At that time , college entrance examination which has been used for thousands of years was suspended for ten years. During the next ten years, the?Down to the Countryside Movement, initiated by?Mao Zedong, forced both senior and junior secondary school graduates, the so-called intellectual youths, to go to the country and work as farmers in the villages. The university entrance exams were cancelled after 1966, to be replaced later by a system whereby students were recommended by factories, villages and military units, and entrance exams were not restored until 1977 under Deng Xiaoping. Who was this person？ Deng Xiaoping?(22 August 1904 – 19 February 1997) was a Chinese revolutionary and statesmen. He was the leader of?China?from 1978 until his retirement in 1992.? A member of the Chinese Communist Party since his youth, Deng Xiaoping has rendered outstanding service to the Chinese people, throughout the revolution, during the development of the People‘s Republic and especially in recent years when, after the disastrous “cultural revolution”, he succeeded in setting the country on the road to socialist modernization.
