The difference between education in China and America
Everyone must be educated, that is the basic duty of a good citizen. However, different environments involve different education. I was born in China. My cousin was born in America. We recently had a discussion about the difference between education in China and America. As a matter of fact, our discussion can be classified in three principal ways: the attitude of parents, the method of school, and the objective of education.
The first point of discussion was the attitude of parents. In China, when children’s exams are not as good as their parents hoped, most parents criticize and intimidate their children: If the next exam has the same result as this exam, children will lose some of their favorite things, such as their computer, mp3 player, or even their precious basketball. This is terrible for children. Children would be mad at their parents in this bad situation but their parents tend not to care. This mortifies children. In America, when children fail their exams, most parents encourage and inspire their children. Failure is inevitable for success. They will do better than before because of this encouragement.
Another discussion point is the method of school. In China, students have fewer courses. They can do better than students of other countries in these courses, but Chinese students lack the knowledge and creativity of foreign students. However, in America, students have a lot of courses which can broaden their horizons. They have broader knowledge in certain fields of study than Chinese students, such as philosophy and the arts, but they are not better at math than Chinese students. Chinese students lack a certain amount of educational freedom which Americans enjoy.
Finally, the two different education systems have two different kinds of objectives. In China, people believe that going to school and graduating from college is only for the diploma. When students graduate from college, the diploma is most important for finding a job. In America, students go to school not only to obtain a diploma, but to also gain other types of knowledge by taking many different courses. They strive to find their unique potential in life, so they can decide what job they want to have in the future.
In the end, my cousin and I knew that the advantages and disadvantages of different education systems between China and America. Chinese students can do better at few courses than American students. But their education is Exam-oriented, which will fall into disuse as time goes by. American education is flexible, which can be approved by a great majority of people. Consequently, I and my cousin agreed that American education is better.
《爱的教育》英语读后感
"Loves Education", compared to becomes the love many things, is really this also is not only these. I thought that “the love will be anything” will not have the explicit answer, but I knew that “the love” will not have the limit, slightly to schoolmate's between friendly conversation, teacher to student's encouragement, the parents to child meticulous showing loving concern, a people's smile which will meet by chance ......Big enough to contributes the marrow, gives blood, helps the Project Hope ...... Although will be similar to the air love sometimes the quilt “the pollution”, “dilution”, even “vanishing”, but hoped that more people will feel in the simple language the deep love, I thought "Will love Education" this good book will take this kind of happy feeling more people.
中文：《爱的教育》中,把爱比成很多东西,确是这样又不仅仅是这些。我想,“爱是什么”不会有明确的答案,但我知道“爱”是没有限制的,小到同学之间的友好交谈,老师对学生的鼓励,父母对孩子无微不至的关爱,甚至萍水相逢的人们的一个微笑……大到捐献骨髓,献血,帮助希望工程…… 虽然如同空气般的爱有时会被“污染”,“稀释”,甚至“消失”,但是还是希望更多的人去感受一下朴实语言中深厚的爱,我想《爱的教育》这本好的书将会把这种美好的感受带给更多的人。
远程教育英语作文
With the rapid development of science and technology, tele-education has sped up in our country. While many people speak highly of its advantages, others see more disadvantages deriving from it.
The advocates of tele-education give their arguments as follows. For one thing, tele-education makes it possible for people in remote areas to learn the subjects they are interested in. For another, people have a wider range of choices as to teachers and lessons through tele-education, because they can listen to the best lessons by the best teachers in the country, or even in the world.
Just as “Every advantage has its disadvantages”, the opponents believe that not all the people have access to tele-education because many are poor. In addition, the students cannot contact teachers, but interpersonal relations are important to their study.
As far as I am concerned, we should develop tele-education more rapidly to benefit more students. Meanwhile, we can design some programs to help teachers and students to contact each other.

Dear Alice,
How nice to hear from you. You want to know what is going on in schools in China Now, I will tell you about it.
In the past, exam-oriented education forced us to listen to our teachers while taking notes in class. We did all kinds of exercises without end, though it was 5 o'clock in the afternoon. After supper, we had to continue our exercises far into the night.
Now, quality-oriented education has made our school life colourful. We are active in class. In order to train the ability, we often do research on study(research into study). Sometimes one of us teaches ourselves. We have various outside activities, such as singing, dancing, English corner, and taking computer lessons. Basketball and football are our favourite sports. In the evening we can watch news on TV, do experiments by ourselves and have talks and discussions of our subjects.
Please make sure that our school life is getting more and more colourful and interesting.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua
