10、 schools. Students have to spend most of their time doing homework, even on weekends. As a result, they have no time for their hobbies, or for their parents or friends. All they do is what they have to do, not what they like to do. The underlying cause for this phenomenon lies in the present exam-or

11、iented education system. National College Entrance Examination has become the sole focus of teachers, parents, and students themselves. High score becomes the ultimate goal, to the neglect of practical abilities, personality development, and all that. It is urgent that we deepen our educational refo

14、country. Though China has shown great concern and done much in education, and in eliminating illiteracy, it still has 153 million illiterate and semi-illiterate citizens, according to some statistics issued by the Ministry of Education. So, in my opinion, raising China“s education level, to a large

15、extent, depends on greater educational achievement in its vast western region and some other backward areas. In the past decade, China has moved to combat illiteracy and promote nine years of compulsory schooling, especially in poor areas and are as in habited by minorities, and has achieved a great

16、 success, but it seems a difficult task in regions where educational opportunities are limited. However, we should set a target that, by 2010, nine-year compulsory schooling should be realized and the illiteracy rate among young and middle-aged adults should be reduced to the minimum.

As you have mentioned in the letter, there are both some similarities and differences between the college life and

24、 the life in high school. On the one hand, you have to go on working hard as there are a lot of subjects for you to learn.

Old people often complain tha

28、t Chinese New Year has lost its real meaning. To their astonishment, young people in China, ignorant about Chinese traditional holidays, are crazy about Christmas or Valentine“s Day. There are several possible reasons for this phenomenon. First, western nations, such as the United States and Britain

29、 are powerful and dominant in every aspect. Everything in these countries is assumed to be superior and adored by some modern young people. Second, the prevalence of English as a world language and the development of globalization enable western culture to flood in China. Overwhelmed by such a tren

30、d, Chinese unconsciously get involved in western culture. Last but not least, some Chinese people have blind faith in foreign things while dismiss our own possessions with contempt. I am critical of this trend. China boasts a brilliant history and splendid traditions. In modern times, Chinese tradit
