【参考范文】

In the picture above, a child flies from one cage to the other cage like a bird.One cage is named school, and the other is named cram school. What a sarcastic picture. There is no freedom left for the children who cannot enjoy the supposed cheerful vacation.英语专业六级

Why cannot the children enjoy the vacation that belongs to them? Who push the children from one cage to the other? What should we do to help the trapped children? The three questions solved, the above picture will not exist any more. The answer to the first question is hidden with the superficial one being acquiring more knowledge, and the fundamental one is that parents demand more scores from their children. They expect their children to be able to score more through attending various cram schools at the cost of their children’s supposedly splendid vocation. So it is the parents who pursue quick success that push the children from one cage to the other. To free the children, the parents should put emphasis on the children’s physical and mental health rather than the score.

As is known to all that pursuit of high scores has long been a phenomenon in China, the cause of this phenomenon is hard to be uprooted. Therefore, we should emancipate the children in the mind and return the joy of childhood to children gradually.
