问题     Schooling is no longer necessary, since more and more information is accessible on the Internet, and students can study just as well at home. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

选项

答案 The Internet is developing at a surprising speed and is changing our whole way of life. For example, it is claimed that the abundant information on the Internet makes it possible for students to study at home, instead of going to schools as they did before. It is true that the Internet does play some part in the learning process today, but I believe, it is far from enough to ensure an education as comprehensive and wholesome as schools do. In today’s world, the Internet is a master key to almost all the knowledge and information available. So a good understanding of computer technology will give a student an edge in searching for and making use of the information for their studies. For instance, students who know how to make the most of the powerful search engines such as Google, tend to find more detailed information about the subjects discussed in class so as to gain a deeper insight into the events or experiments and acquire a multidimensional understanding of current issues. However, this does not automatically mean the Internet can play all the roles a school can, not to mention taking its place. School education always is, and will remain, essential for one’s upbringing because it is not only a platform to impart knowledge but also a stage to educate an individual about values and attitudes etc. Studying and living in an environment where students will be encouraged by their teachers and accompanied by their peers benefits them in a wider range. They are more likely to know how to be themselves while fitting in a group, how to develop their critical thinking while learning to take advice from others. On the other hand, the Internet can hardly serve these functions. And when students are well exposed to all kinds of information provided by the huge database of the Internet, it is the judgment students learn from schools that helps them distinguish between right and wrong. Overall, I think schools will continue playing the leading role in education, and the Internet will be a complementary part to it.
