在日常的学习、工作、生活中,说到格言,大家肯定都不陌生吧,格言又称箴言,可 那么都有哪些类型的格言呢?
In my early years, I did not see the value of education.
When I was going on thirteen, I started to run my own shop. From then on, I worked hard to become a successful businessman.
One day I realized the importance of the English language in the business world and started taking night classes.
I was able to communicate well with foreign customers after two years of English study. But I started to feel that, in the long run, having a limited knowledge of English was not enough to make my business successful. I knew that only a well- rounded education could guarantee my success in the future.
When I was eighteen, I had to make a decision to continue doing business or go back to school. There was one obstacle keeping me from getting an advanced education. I had only completed elementary school up to that point. I then went back to senior high school after four months of tutoring in different subjects. Being at school for the first time after so many years was somewhat embarrassing because my classmates were at least two or three years younger than I. I concluded that my age did not matter. The important thing was getting into college.
I took the College Entrance Exams. Although my math exam result was only one point below the required score. I never gave up hope. The following year, I took it again and received the highest score in my city. Achieving such an amazing result gave me encouragement and courage necessary to continue my education to the next step.
I am now in my second year of college and know that it is never too late to learn. My passion for studying and improving myself will never come to a halt as long as I continue to live.
“Live and Learn.” is the motto I have adopted. I believe with an education I will succeed. So, if you are wondering whether education is important, don’t hesitate a moment to step up and seize the opportunity.
Hello everyone. Today I will talk about education. Children's education. Everyone has experienced during childhood or become parents. so today you will feeling of my word perhaps. I will more want to talk about Chinese children’s education. This is only my private opinion.
Children under Chinese education is pitiable. They are living in a spoiled world .Most of parents allow their children to do everything they want to do whether it's accurate or not ,or buy children whatever they desire. Even children do the wrong thing there is no education.
For example: some parents condone children in urine anywhere. Parents should tell their children where the toilet, rather than the children do the way they like. As I have seen parents allow their children to pass water on the floor at home .Parents just do services instead of giving correct guidance to children.
I wonder that under such education,whether the parents think about how children will be like in the future. Although parents offer children the best living conditions and material base, but they don`t foster children how to think independently, or do correct judgment. I really want to know do these parents also got such education when they were young.
We often see some youth made foolish or illegal activities in the media. I believe that they were not born with these activities. Of course ,there are social reasons ,but more or main impact is the bad education from parents.
In Chinese families, I have seen a lot of this phenomenon, when a child who just fell down on the ground, just stand instability, and without any injuries ,the whole people of family put down everything, rushed to the baby and hold baby up ,and ask baby ached or not, or rub legs and arms, or give toys to make baby happy. I would like to know, if you fell down then get such a good treatment, will you climb up? Why the creativity, independence of children is so bad? Perhaps the reason is, children can get whatever they want, parents will instead of children to do all things.
I love my country, I hope next generation will be better. I also believe all the parents love their children. However the responsibility of parents is not just love their children, I think the most important things are education and guidance. Family education is very important to decide
what kind of person will children be in the future .I want to say to parents, please think about what you have done to children today, decide how they will be in the future? Do you want to ruin his/her life ?
There is a movie gave me emotionally, called "The Road", which I thought of my father, and also thought of my children in future. I hope I can be like the boy in the movie, when his father left he became a strong man .I also want to be like the father in "The Road", can telling to my kids "keep the fire, the fire inside you".
Good morning, everyone! This week, we are going to learn a new topic——the Aims of Education. Differ from Whitehea d ’s idea; I think the aim of education is to help people form a lifelong learning consciousness. In my eyes, education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for teaching them knowledge but to help them form a lifelong learning consciousness.
We can see that, as education appeared, the aim of it has always been a hot topic to human beings, especially the great thinkers. Their ideas towards the aim of education reflect the educational changes in human society. That is to say the aim of education is not static . In ancient Greek, Aristotle thought that “Education must aim at the development of the full potentialities of each man”。 Later, it developed into the idea of training young people to be well -educated gentlemen or citizens in Henry Newman’s work The Idea of a University.
As the society develops, the aim of education has taken in new meanings and implications-----to educate and train people to be all-roundly cultivated persons. To achieve this goal, one has to spend his whole life to learn. However, in the usual case people just spend some years on study in schools or universities. After they leave school, they seldom pick up books. Now the government is advocating building a “learning society”。 It provides people chances to do some continuous learning in other schools besides the formal ones, like night schools.
In fact, the idea that education should be throughout a person’s life has been existing for a long time. In China, it can be traced further back to “the Analects of Confucius”。 Confucius said, “If some years were added to my life, I would give fifty to the study of the Yi, and then I might come be without great faults”。 This indicates his idea of lifelong learning. Besides, some famous western philosophers also held the idea that individual education should be a continuous process. For example, the great thinker Aristotle claimed that “Education is the best provision for the journey to old age”。 These claims above show that those great educators take education as a long term task.
Unfortunately, the time that people spend in schools or universities is limited, so is the knowledge they can learn in the formal schooling. As a result, it is significant for teacher to promote learner autonomy and guide students to form a lifelong learning consciousness in school. But usually people do not take it serious until they leave school. I would like to take my elder cousin as an example.
My elder cousin went to a professional school after he graduated from high school. One year later, he became a workman in a factory. He was satisfied with the job and stopped learning. Yet as time goes by, now he feels that the task is beginning to exceed his ability. This is not a single case happen to those “graduates”。
Nowadays, more and more people realize this problem and start to take some measures to solve it. In order to get a higher degree, people take some courses on the Internet or go to night schools to do their further study. Such being the case, why not help people build up their consciousness of lifelong learning when they are still in school? Thus they can do some preparation and try their best to create opportunities for further study even after they leave school.
To conclude, the aim of education ought to educate people to consider education as a continuous process and form this consciousness in school so that people can receive any kind of education in any time or anywhere to adapt to the development of society.
