据说一所重点中学的初中有一半以上的学生家长向学校反映作业太多，孩子整天熬夜，都成了近视眼。但学校却认为学生这个年龄阶段，正是学知识的黄金时期，应该学习，而且还说，说这些话家长的孩子学习不刻苦，无主动性，成绩又不好，只能通过多做练习才行。而我认为，学校的初衷虽然是良好的，但他们却真的没有想到“欲速则不达”的道理。
It is said that more than half of the parents of the students in a key middle school report too much homework to the school. The children stay up all day and become nearsighted. But the school thinks that the age of students is the golden age of learning knowledge. They should learn. Moreover, the parents' children who say these words don't study hard, have no initiative, and have poor grades can only do more exercises. In my opinion, although the original intention of the school is good, they really don't think of the truth that "Haste makes waste".
学生时期，最重要的事情是学习，但学习首先要有一个健康的身体，如果没有健康的身体做保证，学生怎么去很好地学习呢？就说眼睛吧，让“孩子整天熬夜，都成了近视眼”，怎么让他们看清黑板上老师的讲解，怎么让他们掌握应该掌握的科学文化知识呢？
During the period of students, the most important thing is to study, but first of all, learning should have a healthy body. If there is no healthy body to guarantee, how can students learn well? Let's talk about eyes. Let "children stay up all day and become myopic". How can they see the teacher's explanation on the blackboard and master the scientific and cultural knowledge they should master?
就算这些家长的孩子学习不刻苦，无主动性，成绩又不好，但用让他们多做些练习的办法就能克服他们的这些缺点吗？我想绝对没有这么简单的事情。有一位哲人说过——“兴趣是最好的老师”，所以我说，这些家长的孩子之所以这样，主要原因是缺乏对学习的兴趣。没有了兴趣，你怎么让他们在学习上刻苦，主动性强，成绩还好呢？作为学校，本来最主要的应该在激发学生学习兴趣上多做扎实细致的工作，而这所重点中学的初中不但没有做这一方面的工作，而且还用让学生多做练习的办法无形之中扼杀学生的学习兴趣，真是让人痛心啊！
Even if these parents' children don't study hard, have no initiative, and have poor grades, can they overcome these shortcomings by making them do more exercises? I don't think there is such a simple thing. A philosopher once said that "interest is the best teacher", so I said that the main reason why these parents' children are like this is the lack of interest in learning. Without interest, how can you make them study hard, have strong initiative, and get good grades? As a school, the most important thing should be to do more solid and detailed work in stimulating students' interest in learning. However, the junior middle school in this key middle school not only didn't do this work, but also killed students' interest in learning with the method of making students do more exercises. It's really sad!
我只想奉劝这所重点中学的初中，快快停止你们错误的做法吧！因为——“欲速则不达”！
I just want to advise the junior high school in this key middle school to stop your wrong practice! Because "haste is not speed"!
