71. This phenomenon has caused a wide public concern in many places of the world.

　　這一現(xiàn)象在全世界許多地方已引起了廣泛關(guān)注。

　　72. Many parents believe that additional educational activities enjoy obvious advantages. By extra studies, they maintain, their children are able to obtain some practical skills and useful knowledge, which will put them in a favorable position in the job market when they grow up.

　　許多家長(zhǎng)相信額外的教育活動(dòng)有許多優(yōu)點(diǎn)，通過學(xué)習(xí)，他們的孩子可以獲得很多實(shí)踐技能和有用的知識(shí)，當(dāng)他們長(zhǎng)大后，這些對(duì)他們就業(yè)是大有好處的。

　　73. In the first place, extra studies bring about unfavorable impacts on the physical growth of the children. Educational experts point out that, it is equally important to take some sports activities instead of studies after the children have spent a whole day in the classroom.

　　首先，額外的學(xué)習(xí)對(duì)孩子們的身體發(fā)育是不利的。教育專家指出，孩子們?cè)诮淌依锎袅艘徽�天后，從事一些體育活動(dòng)，而不是額外的學(xué)習(xí)，是非常重要的。

　　74. Children are undergoing fast physical development; lack of physical exercise may have disastrous influences on their later life.

　　孩子們正處于身體快速發(fā)育時(shí)期，缺乏體育鍛煉可能會(huì)對(duì)他們未來的生活造成嚴(yán)重的影響。

　　75. In the second place, from psychological aspect, the majority of children seem to be of no interest in additional educational activities.

　　第二，從心理上講，大部分孩子似乎對(duì)額外的學(xué)習(xí)沒有什么好感。

　　76. It is hard to imagine how they feel to be forced to focus on the textbooks while other children are playing.

　　當(dāng)別的孩子在玩耍的時(shí)候，很難想象一個(gè)學(xué)生能集中精力在課本上。

　　77. Moreover, children will have less time to play and communicate with their peers due to extra studies; consequently, it is difficult for them to develop their characters and interpersonal skills. They may become more solitary and even suffer from certain mental illness.

　　而且，由于要額外地學(xué)習(xí)，孩子們沒有多少時(shí)間和同齡的孩子玩耍和交流，很難培養(yǎng)他們的個(gè)性和交際能力。他們可能變得孤僻甚至產(chǎn)生某些心理疾病。

　　78. From what has been discussed above, we may safely draw the conclusion that, although extra studies indeed enjoy many obvious advantages, its disadvantages shouldn't be ignored and far outweigh its advantages. It is not wise to force children to take extra studies after school.

　　通過以上討論，我們可以得出結(jié)論：盡管額外學(xué)習(xí)的確有很多優(yōu)點(diǎn)，但它的缺點(diǎn)不可忽視，且遠(yuǎn)大于它的優(yōu)點(diǎn)。因此，放學(xué)后強(qiáng)迫孩子額外學(xué)習(xí)是不明智的。

　　79. Any parents should place considerable emphasis on their children to keep the balance between studying and playing. As an old saying goes: All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

　　任何家長(zhǎng)都應(yīng)非常重視保持孩子在學(xué)習(xí)與玩耍的平衡，正如那句老話：只工作，不玩耍，聰明的孩子會(huì)變傻。

　　80. These days, a growing number of mothers or fathers prefer to stay at home looking after their children instead of returning to work earlier.

　　現(xiàn)在，越來越多的母親或者父親選擇留在家里照顧他們的孩子而不愿過早返回工作崗位。
