Topic:
Who should be more responsible for children's education, the school or the parents?
英语范文
Recently, parents tend to attach greater importance to their children's education. Some parents hold the opinion that the school has the main duty to educate their children. However, some teachers take the view that parents should also assume the responsibility. Views on this issue vary from person to person.
People who hold the opinion that the school should shoulder the major responsibility to educate children have some sound reasons. In the first place, most of the children's waking time is spent in schools, and their purpose to attend school is to receive education. Secondly, the parents of the children pay for the education of their children, so they have the rights to receive correspondent services. As an institution of education, the school has the sole responsibility to educate the younger generation. Moreover, there are well-equipped facilities and well-trained teachers in schools.
However, the other side of the coin voices its strong opposition, saying that the parents should assume the main duty of children's education. First of all, the parents know their children more than the school, and they know what to teach and in what way it can be accepted. In the second place, it is beneficial to teach children in accordance with their specific features. Furthermore, in school, each child gets inadequate individual attention, and sometimes his or her particular needs are passed over.
Admittedly, there are merits to both arguments. From my own perspective, I would like to take a more balanced position. Schools and parents are both essential to children's all-around development and they should take the responsibility together.
题目：
是学校还是父母应该对孩子教育承担主要责任？
译文：
最近，父母们更重视孩子的教育。有些父母认为学校有教育他们孩子的主要责任。有些教师认为父母也应该承担这个主要责任。人们的观点各不相同。
认为学校应该承担主要教育责任的人有这些理由：第一，孩子的绝大多数时间是在学校度过的，他们去学校的目的是接受教育。第二，家长为他们孩子的教育付钱，所以孩子有权利接受相应的服务。作为一个教育机构，学校有责任教育年轻一代。而且，学校有良好的教学设施和训练有素的教师。
然而，另一方强烈反对，提出父母应该承担主要责任。首先，家长比学校老师更了解他们的孩子，而且更清楚应该教孩子什么和以何种方式教孩子能更加容易让孩子接受。第二，因材施教对孩子是有益的。而且，在学校，孩子无法得到特别的关照，以致他们的特殊需求被忽视。
必须承认，双方都有道理。我愿意持有一个更平衡的立场。学校和父母对孩子的全面发展都很重要，他们应该一起承担责任。
