Answer 1

    According to the statistics above, we can obviously see that many high school students are now suffering from serious mental and physical problems owing to examination-oriented education.

As a student, I’m all in favor of the timely decision made by our responsible government. The promotion of essential – qualities – oriented schooling can do a lot of good to us students. In the influence of examination – oriented education, we didn’t even have enough time to sleep, let alone physical training, which is particularly useful in developing our character. Now, however, we can benefit a lot from “returning time, health as well as competence to the students.”

It goes without saying that only by practicing the national educational principle, can we young generation have the innovative spirit and practical ability to meet future challenges. People usually say “Knowledge is power.” But in my viewpoint, the ability to properly use knowledge is real power.
