What does the third term mean?

The third year refers to the junior and senior high school students in 1966, 1967 and 1968 when the Cultural Revolution broke out in China. At that time, junior and senior high school students in middle schools piled up in schools due to the Cultural Revolution. By 1968, there was a unique spectacle of six middle school students graduating in the same year, which caused a huge employment crisis.

Therefore, after leaving school for the third term, all of them basically became educated youth, and they changed the previous mode of going to the countryside based on the farm (including the Corps) to the mode of jumping the queue. Most of the third generation were born before and after the founding of the Republic of China, and their growth experienced anti-Rightism, Great Leap Forward, Lushan Conference, three years of economic difficulties, Sino-Soviet debate and the Cultural Revolution.

This is a special period in the history of the Republic where development and setbacks coexist, light and darkness coexist, and progress and autocracy coexist. The adolescent stage of the Third Senior Middle School is in the historical stage of prominent social contradictions and abnormal inner-party struggle in China, and it is also a rare stormy era of class struggle in the 2th century in New China.
