Is it Important for Getting First Grade in School Days

In Chinese society, parents and teachers always request students’ schoolwork to turn out the best. No matter you o have the interest, no matter you also want to handle any thing else, reading the book is most important. We surely all passed through this kind of stage in childhood. The parents always said that if you want to play, you will have done the work first. Otherwise, they would tell you that even the schoolwork has not attended to, what do you want to do in future? These speeches and thoughts are familiar- sounding to everybody. But have we attentively listened to them from heart? And do we have calmly thought the schoolwork is really more important than any thing else?

In many elders’ mind, they think if you want to have a good career in the future, you must have good schoolwork and good diploma. Something is right about this view. Taking the schoolwork seriously may increase our ability to solve the question and increase our willpower and thus augment our knowledge.

But a report points out that student who got first grades in school days, are not necessarily the first in office. The report concludes parents of these students gave stress since childhood to read book hard. These students were forced to discard their own interest, at the same time, to instill wrong idea that result is more important than process. Some psychologists point out education has two kinds of goals. One goal is for social interaction; another one is personal development. For instance, social interaction students are easy to obtain praises from teachers and peers, but they study in a passive way. On the other hand, students who focus on personal development study diligently. It is good but it is dangerous since they neglect their own interest. Eventually, they enjoy study very much and develop significance. They know much from book, but they don’t know much about what’s going on around them. Therefore, the best education system is help youngsters develop knowledge at the same time, invest to help youngsters discover the world which goes beyond his personal development. To sum up, know yourself, at the same time, know people around you.
