导读

近日，一个关于“是否应该叫停家长给学生家庭作业签字的硬性要求？”的话题引发了网友们热议。对此，你怎么看？

                                                                         

A primary school in Jinhua, Zhejiang province, has announced it no longer requires parents to sign their children’s homework. China Youth Daily comments:

浙江省金华一所小学宣布，不再要求父母给他们孩子的家庭作业签字。《中国青年报》评论：

 

Putting an end to the requirement that parents sign off on the homework of their children eases the burden on many parents, as otherwise they would have to do primary school homework after a hard day’s work. But there are worries that if parents stop having to sign off on their children’s homework, the children will not get good grades.

结束父母在他们孩子的家庭作业上签字这一要求减轻了很多家长的负担，否则，他们在辛苦工作一天后还得做小学家庭作业。但也有人担心，如果家长停止在他们孩子的家庭作业上签字，孩子就得不到好成绩。

 

However, the most efficient way for children to study is to cultivate their willingness to learn and do their own studies.

然而，对于孩子而言，学习的最有效的方法是培养他们学习和自学的意愿。

 

When doing homework, students practice and hopefully apply what they have learned. True, teachers are supposed to check students’ homework and identify their mistakes. But some parents correct their children’s mistakes by themselves when signing off on it.

在做作业的时候，学生学以致用。没错，老师应该检查学生的作业，找出他们的错误。但有些家长在签字的时候会纠正他们孩子的错误。

                                                                                                

 

It is the duty of students to do their homework, be responsible for their studies and correct their mistakes. Parents’ supervising their homework, checking their answers and dealing with the harder problems, will only make children less aware of their mistakes and encourage them to wait for their parents’ help when they face any problems.

做作业、对学习负责、和纠正错误是学生的职责。家长监督作业、检查答案、和解决更难问题只会让孩子更少地意识到他们的错误，并且鼓动他们在面对问题时等待父母的帮助。

 

Children have to manage their own learning and develop the ability to study by themselves, as competency will not be achieved if a student simply repeats rigid tasks in which he is assisted in school by teachers and at home by parents.

孩子必须管理他们自己的学习，培养自学的能力，因为如果一个学生只是重复他在学校里有老师帮忙和在家里有父母帮忙的僵化任务，能力就难以提升。

 

A delayedgratification experiment conducted by Walter Mischel in the 1960s proved that children with better self-discipline performed better in their studies and interpersonal relationships.

20世纪60年代，沃尔特.米歇尔进行的一项延迟享乐实验证明，有更好自律的孩子在学习和人际关系中表现得更好。

 

There is little doubt that parents’ supervision can make children’s homework better. But it does not give children the chance to practice their ability to solve problems independently.

毫无疑问，家长的监督可以使孩子的家庭作业变得更好。但是这并不能给孩子练习独立解决问题能力的机会。
