130"How children are socialized today determines the destiny of society. Unfortunately, we have not yet learned how to raise children who can help bring about a better society." 分析:社会化是社会命运的决定因素之一,强调儿童的社会化让学生长大后能更好融入整个社会,可是过分强调却容易导致儿童的世俗化,学会尔虞我诈。未来社会的走向还取决于儿童的各种能力和才能:道德水平、知识技能、人文关怀的精神。可是我们是还没有学会如何去把我们的孩子培养成对社会有用的人。涉及到政府的行为:从本政府的发展角度出发去强调把儿童培养
The speaker asserts that children’s socialization determines the social destiny. It might be tempting to agree with the speaker on the basis that children is the future master of the society, and that teaching them the way to communicate with the peers can make them better to adapt the social environment. However, the speaker overlooks other factors, which play important roles in the chiliren’s future, , such as moral standard, originality and humanities, that should be also instilled into children. Considering the role of the government in the education involved, we indeed have not yet learned how to raise children to construct a better society.
Admittedly, socialization can make children more easily to adapt the social environment. As we all know that not all children are so successful in the society when they become working adults,even, some become rejected by peers because of their aggressive, confrontational or behaviors. And eventually it has a terrible influence on their career, and their lives. An example, happened in China in 2002,can be aptly illustrated this view. A young boy ,come from a village far from big cities, feeled very hard to communicate with his collegemates and loneliness, so he killed six classmates due to his jealousy of their abilities to negotiate, compromise and make friends with others. What would be happen if he was gotten attention to be trained in his childhood to share something, such as fruits\ toys\emotions with the peer, express the negative feelings when someone hurts him, and what wil the result be? He will live a life full of confidence and create more wealth for our society, rather than feeling despair and killing others as a result. Therefore, it is vital for children to socialized when they are young, and beneficial to our society when they become working adults.
On the other hand, it is important not to take this assertion about the socialization of children too far. too emphasis on socialization can lead child to be an enemy of our society. Consider the introvert for example. These children prefer thinking to outgoing. If we force them to communicate with others, they maybe feel frustrated because of their clumsy manners, and to the worse, they maybe feel hostile to the whole society. And even they become lairs that are harmful to our society.In fact, our society needs all kinds of persons that have various abilities. Persons that have high moral standards, whatever they have done, will be respected for us. Otherwise, the demagogue, whatever their social manners are sophisticated and how emotional their lectures, will not let our society prosperous. Hilter will be forsaked forever and Gandhi will be respected by us forever for his high moral standard.Therefore, children’s socialization is vital, but knowledge\ moral standards, and the humanity are much more important for the progress of our society.
Unfortunately, we still do not know how to raise our children to make our society “better”. Governments always make educational policies from current practical needs, not from children’s long-term development. One need look no further than class-schedules in schooling. They put more emphasis on practical, short-term contents, such as verbal, maths, computers,etc, than arts and humanities.
In sum, when it comes to whether a child grows up to contribute to a better society, the key determinant is not socialization but rather some other factors-such as moral standard, humanities. And considering that the government,the determinance of education’s policy, is always from the short-term interests and practical needs, indeed have we not learned how to develop children who can help bring about a better soci ety. |
