Civil service examinations tend to suppress cultural diversity. This paper investigates the short七erm and the long term influences of the Chinese civil service examinations on the Chinese culture and the cultural features it has given rise to in the Chinese society.   The civil service examinations occasionally determined cultural vahles and consequently obstructed the cultural diversity in China. The examinations prescribed specific reference texts that brought about the Alexandrian nature of the Chinese literature. In other words, there emerged a tendency to attach greater importance to history than to actual experience.   The tendency of the civil service examinations to determine cultural values is strongly suggested in publications belonging to the imperial period. For example, numerous rhyming dictionaries were printed in keeping with the requirements of the Chinese civil service examination; this promoted the institutiQnal canonization of the absolute central dialect. When a society sets up an examination system, the system itself influences the culture of the society, prescribes it to some extent, and suppresses the educational foundations of that society. This paper examines this particular problem。
