Abstract

Since the 21st century, China has made great efforts in education, and the overall cultural level of the people has been significantly improved. However, with the improvement of people's living standards and the country's degree of openness, the issue of large regional differences in English education has gradually attracted the public's attention. This article aims to analyze the impact of economy, system, and regional inclusion on the inequality of English education between urban and rural areas in China and put forward relevant suggestions to alleviate or change these negative impacts. The author employs a literature analysis approach and concludes that economic, systemic, and regional inclusiveness have profound and interactive effects on rural-urban differences in teacher quality, students' English acquisition ability, and access to quality English-language instructional resources. Finally, this paper suggests using the central government's direct investment in education and teacher allocation, improving the household registration system and related laws, and increasing students' exposure to English in rural areas to alleviate the urban-rural disparity in English education in China.
