This September, schools in Kyrgyzstan (吉尔吉斯斯坦) are moving from 9 years of compulsory(义务的) education to 12 years. Students will also have one more hour for subjects like Physics(物理) and Computer Science every week. This new model will better prepare students for the job market, said The Times of Central Asia.
Malaysia(马来西亚) made a similar rule in July. According to The Star, students now need to finish secondary school, not just primary school as before.
Why is this happening? In fact, compulsory education is important for both the individual and society(个人和社会). A 2024 study on the World Bank’s website(网站) showed that it helps kids from poor families get more education and improves social equity (社会公平). Also, longer schooling gives students more time to catch up on learning. This way, they can have a better chance of going to university.
However, some people think adding more years isn’t enough. For example, Guatemala (危地马拉), a country in Central America, has 16 years of compulsory schooling, but students still score low, according to the China National Academy of Educational Sciences.
Experts call for other changes. Schools should update(更新) their lessons, especially in fast-changing subjects like Science and History, noted the University of Louisiana Monroe in the USA. Meanwhile, students should have different learning paths(路径) that match their strengths(强项), according to The Edge Malaysia.

今年9月，吉尔吉斯斯坦的学校将把9年义务教育延长至12年。学生们每周学习物理和计算机科学等科目的时间也将增加一小时。《中亚时报》称，这种新模式将让学生更好地为就业市场做准备。
马来西亚在7月也出台了类似规定。据《星报》报道，现在学生需要完成中学学业，而不像以前只需要完成小学学业。
为什么会出现这种情况呢？事实上，义务教育对个人和社会都很重要。世界银行网站上2024年的一项研究表明，它有助于贫困家庭的孩子接受更多教育，还能促进社会公平。此外，更长的学制能让学生有更多时间赶上学习进度。这样，他们就有更大的机会考上大学。
然而，一些人认为只增加学制时长是不够的。例如，据中国教育科学研究院称，中美洲国家危地马拉的义务教育时长为16年，但学生的成绩仍然很低。
专家呼吁进行其他方面的变革。美国路易斯安那门罗大学指出，学校应该更新课程，尤其是像科学和历史这类变化较快的学科的课程。同时，《马来西亚边缘报》称，学生应该有符合自身优势的不同学习路径。

（ ）2. 义务教育如何有助于社会公平？
A. 它能帮助所有学生上大学。
B. 它能帮助大学找到更优秀的学生。
C. 它能提高学习较弱的学生的成绩。
D. 它能给贫困家庭的孩子一个公平的机会。
（ ）3. 根据文章，专家们可能会认同什么？
