Language is the bridge of communication between people.Unified language is the lubricant of human society.Since 2017,the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region has issued a series of documents to accelerate the popularization of the standard spoken and written State language,and carried out a series of teaching and training activities in the national language for ethnic minority areas throughout Xinjiang.However,at present,no scholars have systematically studied the impact of this policy on the development of ethnic minority families from the perspective of Xinjiang ethnic minority farmers.The purpose of this study is to clarify the roles of the resident task force,village cadres and village primary school teachers in the implementation of the policy,and to observe the interaction between them and the farmers as the objects of the implementation.In order to achieve the above goals,this paper uses a variety of social survey methods to investigate the implementation of the national common language popularization policy in Hotan Village.Through questionnaires and interviews,the specific ways to popularize the national common language in Village A are as follows: the task force stationed in the village takes the lead,village cadres assist,primary school teachers in the village act as teachers,and all villagers receive education and training in the national language.The implementation of the national common language in village B is as follows: the village task force is responsible for education and training,with the assistance of village cadres,and the villagers are trained in national language in stages.Through the one-way ANOVA analysis of the survey data,we find that Mandarin proficiency significantly affects farmers’ income,and higher proficiency corresponds to higher income.Through research and analysis,it is found that the ability of Mandarin will not only affect the villagers’ ability to use the Internet,their awareness of protecting their rights and interests,but also affect their expectations of their children’s education.The main problems in the implementation of the policy of popularizing the national common language in the rural areas of ethnic minorities are as follows: ignorance of the villagers’ right to participate in or withdraw from the training voluntarily;lack of a differentiated training mechanism and low training efficiency;neglect of the equal right of the middle-aged and the elderly to receive training;and occupation of the villagers’ time for farming.The reasons for these problems are as follows: the township government has a uniform approach;the number of cadres stationed in villages is small and the rotation period is short,so it is unable to grasp the specific needs of each villager for Mandarin training in an all-round way;the higher level has insufficient understanding of the actual situation at the grassroots level,and the work arrangement is not careful enough.Based on the above problems and causes,this study puts forward the following measures: reasonably arrange the difficulty of training courses according to the level of villagers’ national language ability;fully respect the basic principle of voluntary participation and withdrawal from training,and do not force villagers to participate;pay attention to the retraining of national language for middle-aged and elderly groups;scientifically arrange education and training time to prevent villagers from occupying agricultural working time;and strengthen the supervision and management of cadres stationed in villages and village cadres. |
