题目:Should parents send their kids to art class? 1. 现在有不少家长送孩子参加各种艺术班; 范文一: Should parents send their kids to art classes? A child’s world is supposed to be fresh and new and beautiful, full of wonder and excitement. Unfortunately, this is not the case for some kids, especially for those born and bred in cities —— their joys are dimmed and even lost because a majority of them are forced to attend various art classes. Some claim that it is beneficial for children’s development. They might have their reasons because most parents are convinced that their kids are gifted gifts from the god. They presume that the earlier their children are exposed to arts, the more likely it is to find out the artistic potential hidden in them. Even if their children fail to become another child prodigy like Lang Lang or Li Yundi, the interests in arts, say, in music, cultivated in childhood will be of great value in their whole life. In spite of the possible benefits mentioned, I, like others, am strongly against it. The major harm is that it might deprive children of their pleasure to play after school. Faced with competition and contest for better universities, most children are buried in piles of homework. Forcing them to art classes will leave them less time to enjoy the beauty of the nature or to find their talent in things they are really interested in. To sum up, childhood is a time for children to play as they wish. Rather than cramming knowledge, it is more important to pave the way for their desire to know than to put them on a diet of facts they are not ready to assimilate. 范文二: Should parents send their kids to art classes? Recently there has been much discussion as to the desirablity of parents sending their kids to various art classes. Generally, there are two camps of views on this phenomenon. Some parents believe that childhood is the golden time for developing artistic talents in their children. A friend of mine told me that he wants his son to become a pianist like Langlang. “But if my son does not start from an early age, it’s only an unachievable dream,” he exclaimed. So he sends his five-year-old kid to piano classes every Saturday, rain or shine. Others, however voiced a different opinion. Their main argument is that attending art classes will impair the health of these children, who have toiled for five days at school. To materialize their parents’ dream, many kids have to burn the candle at both ends. Personally, I am not in favor of sending all kids to art classes. As a proverb goes, “Love is the best teacher.” Parents should first of all find out whether their kids love the art or not. You can lead a horse to a river, but can you make him drink?
