2、164答案与解析 1 【正确答案】 Which form of education is more desirable for children co-education, where boys and girls attend school together, or single-sex schools? To answer this, one should first think about the aim of education at school. Cramming childrens heads full of knowledge is by no means the main p

3、urpose. The more important goal is to prepare them to take their place in adult society. As this society is made up of males and females, a segregated school consisting only of members of the same sex cannot serve this purpose well. By contrast, a co-educational school is far preferable in achieving

4、 this aim, offering students nothing less than a true version of society in miniature. Boys and girls are given the opportunity to get to know each other, and to learn to live together from their earliest years. They are in a position to compare themselves with each other in terms of academic abilit

5、y, athletic achievement and many of the extra-curricular activities which are part of school life. In this way, boys dont grow up imagining that women are mysterious creatures and girls dont grow up scared of men. Years of associating with each other at school dispel illusions of this kind. Those ag

As a matter of fact, when you try to suppress it by separating boys from girls, you achieve the exact opposite. Alternatively, members of the same sex spend all their time together as they will seek

8、to satisfy their need for intimacy. As a result, segregated schools may breed sexual deviation. In co-educational schools, it cannot be denied that the flower of love between boys and girls may blossom too early. But this is not necessarily as harmful as many educators may think. What we need to do

9、is to teach them how to deal with problems about love when they occur. In conclusion, co-educational schools, rather than segregated schools offer the proper place for children to become well-adjusted citizens in society. 2 【正确答案】 Sometimes while looking back on the way we have come along, one may f

10、ind that seemingly the road is always bumpy and muddy and sadly, the driver happens to be a man most of the time. Some people may thereby form a misunderstanding that it is the male driver who has made the voyage uncomfortable and full of suffering. It is the same case when it comes to history. I fi

11、rmly believe that whether society is more violent and conflicting does not have a close relationship with the gender of the leader. Throughout the history, it is indisputable that the number of male leaders far surpasses that of female ones. However, this cant serve as the prerequisite of the saying

12、 that it is the existence of male leader who created more violence and conflicts in society. On the one hand, most of the time, when male leaders were in power, society remained peaceful and the time of peace was much longer than that of war. On the other hand, it is unreasonable and unacceptable to

To summarise, male leaders dont prevail over female ones when it comes to governing society and vice versa. No matter who seizes the throne, the orbit of society would never be changed. To exaggerate the function of the gender of the leader does not hold any water.
