Schools should teach children the academic subjects which will be beneficial for their future career, so other subjects like music and sports are not important.<br />
To what extent do you agree or disagree with these opinions?<br />
<br />
There is a growing trend in schooling these days that teachers place more emphases on academic studying, while neglecting other subjects such as music, art and sports. They argue that these optional subjects seem to be less advantageous to students in terms of career development. But I personally do not believe this will be the best way to cultivate our children at school.<br />
<br />
On the one hand, obviously, focusing more attention on academic subjects does have the potential to bring about young students a plenty of benefits, including those associated with vocational promotion. With modern technology developing so fast ,many jobs in future will be more challenged and need more advanced skills for employees, therefore a person who can not manage to achieve a good qualification will be less able to find a decent job in labour market, and thus personal development in career might be unimaginable. So children working hard in academy with continued teaching should be more likely to be successful in future working life, compared with those having a poor academic level.<br />
<br />
On the other hand, those subjects which are considered less useful for children’s future career, such as music, art and sports actually play an active role in their future working life in terms of physical and psychological development. Specifically, when children have been taught to play an instrument, sports or do painting, they can benefit themselves a lot from those activities, such as confidence, cooperation and competition, which certainly can contribute to their promotion in career in future. Moreover, in some cases, a child will be found to have a special gift in these areas and ultimately become a great musician, artist or exceptional sports star.<br />
<br />
In conclusion, on behalf of children’s future, it is always worth spending time and efforts in academic subjects, as well as those optional subjects such as music, art and sports. The combination of the two types of subject in schooling may be the most beneficial for children in terms of growing up and future career as a whole.<br />

新作文一篇<br />
<br />
Some people believe that there should be fixed punishments for each type of crime,others ,however, argue that circumstances of an individual crime,and the motivation for committing it, should always be taken into account when deciding on the punishment.<br />
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.<br />
<br />
Nowadays, whether having a fixed punishment has become a frequent topic of discussion,especially when people find it more resonable to punish a criminal with consideration of the paticular circumstances and motivation<br />
Some people argue that a fixed punishment will have a deterring role in combating crime. As potential violators may have a clear sense of the consequences of their acts, they might reconsider commiting the crime.So from our own experience ,we can find a plenty of evidence to surpport this view that fixed punishments can be a effective way to prevent crime.<br />
However, some people believe the circumstances and motivation involved in a individual crime is what can effectively differentiate a violent criminal from a non-violent one. For example, a law-abiding citizen killing a person for self-defence should not be treated as a crucial killer who enjoys murdering humanbeings psychologically, and the regular punishment for this case seems too harsh to be suitable.<br />
I personally believe that enforcing the fixed punishments against crime can indeed contribute to justice and equity in law. This help make sure that no one can above the law, regardlees of how rich or powerful he or she is. However, although fixing punishment can benefit our society in many respects, there are some limits here because this approach is neither strict enough for those violent criminal acts nor appropriate for those vitimless ones. Therefore, taking circumstances and motivication into consideration can provide a room for the court and jury to make a more acceptable decision on a specific crime, which will certainly be of benefit to individuals,families and the society as a whole.<br />
In conclusion, the two measures for punishing are not mutually exclusive,and the combination of them can offer us a facility for establishing justice ,equity and security in community and society level.<br />

5.these optional subjects --> the non-academic subjects
6. seem to be less advantageous --> are less helpful
7.在第二句末加, while other teachers/parents等 ......对立的观点. 这样子后面会接得比较顺.

您真是好人，多谢了看来我还要多努力
vacational promotion 是想避免与 career development 在重复，不知道对不对
Nowdays, the discussion about the fixed criminal punishment is still a hot attention among the people with the opinion that particular circumstance and motivation should be in consideration for a reasonable punishment.
Some people belive that a fixed punishment can bring up an active impact against crime. Potential violations might be getting less because of more fear about the severe consequence in the process of out-of-law activities, which would result in the reconsideration of law offenders in their committing a crime. Based on the past reports and evidences, we can see the effective influence how fixed punishment can frighten the criminals in their statements of confessions.
关于语言的重复,其实,只要合理的把语序掉一下,换写简单的单字即可.如 career development,在不影响语意的情况下或上下文做适当的调节后,可直接用future career, professional development, career planning 等.这些都不是什么很困难的词,表达出要表达的意思就好,不需要用一些太过高级,甚至是文绉绉的词.
