大学英语作文: Let Kids Walk to the School 让孩子步行上学

These days, inNanjingcity, taking a taxi to school is getting more and more fashionable amongmiddle-school students. Some of them are children of businessmen who arerelatively well-off. The parents of these children claim they can earn muchmoney easily and the yearly taxi fees spent by children mean nothing to them.But most parents must work very hard---some even have to find a second job toafford their childrens high consumption.

近日,在南京中学生打的去上学的现象越来越成为一种潮流。他们有的是相当富有的商人子女。这些孩子的父母声称他们赚钱容易,孩子每年乘坐出租车的费用对他们来说不算什么。但是大部分的家长必须努力工作,有的甚至不得不兼职第二份工作以供孩子的高消费。

parents love for their children is natural andunderstandable. They are not willing to let their children take the crowdedbuses and endure hardships of a long time bump. But this practice seems to domore harm than good to these kids. It is not simply a question of taking a taxi,it involves the parents education of their children in terms of charactercultivating and physical training in the making of a man. In my opinion, nomatter how wealthy a family is, they should not spoil their children in theprocess of personality development. Instead, they should do something to tempertheir children to endure hardship and torture of life and get self-dependent.They should let their children bear in mind that money does not come easily andanything cannot be achieved without sweat and tears. So they should not takeeverything for granted.

家长爱孩子是天经地义也是可以理解的。他们不愿意让孩子乘坐拥挤的公车,忍受长时间的颠簸。但是这一实践带给孩子的坏处似乎多于好处。这不仅仅只是打的的问题,它涉及了家长对孩子们人格塑造过程中培养个性和锻炼身体的教育。在我看来,不管一个家庭多富有,他们都不应该在个性发展的过程中溺爱孩子。他们反而应该做些什么来锻炼孩子忍受生活中的痛苦和折磨从而变得自立。他们应该让孩子们牢记钱来之不易,没有什么是不需要汗水和泪水就可以得到的。因此他们就不应该认为一切都是理所当然的。

Our younger generations should have a comprehensivedevelopment, intellectually, physically and ethically. At present, it issurprising that moral education and character training for children are oftenignored. Lets remember what Helen Keller, a blindUSwriter, says, Character cannotbe developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and sufferingcan the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired, and successachieved.

我们这年轻的一代应该德智体美全面发展。令人惊讶的是现在人们常常忽视了对孩子的道德教育和性格培养。让我们牢记美国作家海伦凯勒说的:在安逸和平静中,人格是无法发展的。只有透过磨难和痛苦,灵魂才能健壮,异象才能看清,雄心才能激扬,成功才能达到。
