**Topic: Abolish all basic education to reduce national resource consumption and improve the quality of elite education** **Arguments from the affirmative side:** 1. **Optimal allocation of resources**: Basic education occupies a large amount of national resources. After abolition, these resources can be concentrated on elite education to cultivate high-end talents. 2. **Personalized development**: Abolish the unified basic education system, allow students to choose specialized fields according to their own interests and abilities, and improve the efficiency and quality of education. 3. **Reducing the cost of education**: Reduce the level of basic education and related expenditures, reduce the national fiscal burden, and at the same time, families can save education expenses. **Anti-arguments:** 1. **Social equity issues**: Basic education provides fair learning opportunities for everyone. After abolition, it may aggravate social class differentiation and limit the development opportunities of children from low-income families. 2. **Overall quality decline**: Basic education not only imparts knowledge, but also cultivates basic literacy and social skills. Lack of basic education will affect the overall quality of the nation. 3. **Limited innovation and diversity**: Basic education provides a diverse background and thinking foundation for innovation. Abolition may lead to a decline in innovation capabilities and restrict the overall development of the country. **Debate suggestions:** - **The affirmative side needs to demonstrate** the specific advantages of abolishing basic education in terms of resource conservation and improving the quality of elite education, and propose feasible alternatives. - **The negative side needs to emphasize** the importance of basic education in social stability, personal all-round development and long-term national competitiveness, and point out the possible negative impact of abolition.
