Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This paper analyzes the current status of Chinese reading teaching in middle schools, pointing out such issues as the dominance of traditional teaching models, insufficient emphasis on cultivating critical thinking, and inadequate utilization of teaching resources. On this basis, the study expounds the significance of cultivating critical thinking for students’ personal growth, the reform of Chinese teaching, and social development. Specific cultivation strategies are proposed, including creating contexts, designing questions, carrying out cooperative inquiry, encouraging questioning, and implementing multiple evaluations, which are illustrated with examples from teaching materials. The study shows that these strategies can effectively stimulate students’ critical thinking and enhance their abilities of independent thinking and rational judgment.
