2013年PETS4英语四级写作套句精选27
As can be seen, a young tree is bent down with heavy burden of homework, assignment, and reference books. The picture highlights the situation where many primary and high school students are caught. Under the close supervision of teachers and parents, they are made to do homework till midnight from Monday to Friday and shepherded to various training courses during weekends. Indeed, they are occupied with so much school work that they can find little time for rest and recreation.
This results from traditional way of teaching, by which teachers sincerely believe "Practice makes perfect". So they give plenty of assignment to students in the hope that these practices will help students to assimilate the newly-learned knowledge. On the other hand, parents put too high expectations on their children. They aspire to children' s success in school, which is supposed to give their children competitive advantages in the entrance examination to college, and a college education is considered to be a passport to bright future and happy life.
It's high time for parents and educators to reduce the heavy load on students. Give them the time to relax and play. Give them the chance to enjoy a happy childhood, just like the free birds flying across the sky. Give them the scope to develop not only their intelligence but also their characters in a balanced way.
