The imperial examination system has introduced more than 1300 years in China, in China’s long history, The system have great significance. The imperial examination system originated in the Sui Dynasty.

The imperial examination made part of the people can obtain fame to make to enhance the social status in the most through the military, hereditary get thesocial status of the feudal society. To a certain extent, it reflects the principle of fair competition and the survival of the fittest, In ancient times, the scholars in the feudal society, that is, the "SHI" this class of talent is the main flow through the imperial examinations, The regional flow of the imperial examination brought, scholar, farmer, artisan and merchant flow between can be seen as thelevel of social flow. And the consideration of its origin, the change of their own class and the parents of the class can be seen as the vertical flow of the society.

People can learn "JINGSHIZIJI" and past the imperial examination to get into official opportunity. The feudal dynasty was also able to help maintain its domination by virtue of the way to select the test to get the country to help the country. But at the same time, the selection method of this kind of talented person also has certain malpractice There are many negative impacts on social stratification and mobility. Therefore, the analysis of the imperial examination system from the perspective of social stratification and social mobility should be discussed from two aspects. To combine the social science and the history of the society, the social level of the imperial examination system and the vertical flow of the scientific and objective analysis.Song Dynasty implemented various about the imperial civil service examination system for the complete system of imperial examination in the entire history of China, is played the role of connecting link between the preceding and the following, Song Dynasty became the key point of the reform of the imperial examination system.

The society is more and more of the hope that they can get higher social status and social resources instead of considering the needs of the social system. The social system is to achieve the harmonious movement of the society through the social mobility, not to meet the needs of most people’s interests. As a result, the imperial examination system has become a kind of safety valve mechanism to regulate the existence of the contradiction in the unstable factors, Has very important social significance.Through the study of the imperial examinations,in the explore the interaction between the imperial examination system and the social structure, And the influence of the social stratification and social structure of the imperial examination system is studied by the theory of sociology.
