　　范文：

　　As is described in the drawing, a student fails in a knowledge competition simply because his answer to one question, though being 100% correct, is not exactly the same as the so-called standard answer. It is discernable that other students are quite puzzled by why “1+2=3” is wrong while “2+1=3” is right.

　　The drawing reminds its audience of a widespread phenomenon in the area of basic education in China, that is, educators stick blindly to fixed standards without allowing any room of flexibility or variation. Students are required to mechanically remember what is written in the books, but receive no encouragement to question, challenge, and disagree. Consequently, children’s creativity is largely limited or killed, which exerts a detrimental impact on their future development, especially in the current society which puts so much emphasis on creativity, innovation, and inventiveness.

　　As far as I am concerned, there needs to be a comprehensive renovation in the educational system, where new educational concepts, such as to inspire creation, are installed. Only by new teaching methods other than stiff memorization can we cultivate children into talents who will meet the requirements that society demands. Likewise, this new tendency would also benefit educators themselves to realize their own potential.

　　譯文：

　　正如圖中描繪的那樣，一個學(xué)生在一次智力競賽中的失敗僅僅是因為他的答案和所謂的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案不是完全一致，盡管他的答案也是完全正確的。我們可以看到其他學(xué)生對于為什么1+2=3是錯誤的而2+1=3是正確的感到十分疑惑。

　　這幅圖實際上是在提醒讀者在中國基礎(chǔ)教育界存在的一個普遍的負(fù)面現(xiàn)象，那就是教育者盲目地堅持標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，而不提供靈活和變化的空間。老師要求學(xué)生們機械地背誦書上的知識，但是從來不鼓勵學(xué)生質(zhì)疑、提出挑戰(zhàn)或者不同見解。因此，孩子們的創(chuàng)造力受到了限制和扼殺，這對于他們的未來發(fā)展是有害的，特別是現(xiàn)代社會十分強調(diào)創(chuàng)新性和獨創(chuàng)性。

　　我認(rèn)為需要對教育系統(tǒng)進行一次全面的革新，加入一些新的教育理念，如鼓勵創(chuàng)新等。我們只有通過新的教育方法、而不是死記硬背， 才能把孩子們培養(yǎng)成為適合社會要求的人才。同樣，這種新的趨勢對于教育者自身也是有好處的，能夠使他們開發(fā)自己的潛能。
