Reviews on an Article of Chinese Railway Network Commentator from Critical Thinking Perspective
Abstract
Spring Festival is the most important traditional festival in China. During the Spring Festival travel period, passengers are faced with ticket scarcity. In order to improve the experience of buying tickets, the Ministry of Railways has launched the "12306" online ticketing platform since 2012. Since the online ticketing platform has been running on-line, the platform has been criticized. In the face of social criticism, the China Railway Network commentator Jiang Le published the "spring festival train tickets were sold out in one second, is '12306' platform?" As soon as this article was published, all kinds of criticism are all over the places. Most of the criticism is emotional more than rational. In this paper, we will make rational reviews on this article from the perspective of critical thinking in this paper.
