Now China has about 20 girls’ middle schools, most of which are owned by government. The only private one was established recently in Guangdong. Its establishment gained the support of local government. Since its foundation, it has caused a wide discussion in society at large. The following are opinions on the necessity of girls’ school. Read them carefully and write your response of NO LESS THAN 300 words, in which you should:
1. summarize briefly the opinions;
2. give your comment.
Zhong Yijun:
Girls’ schools are paid more attention to in developed countries. Historically, China has also had very successful schools of this kind, such as the very famous Shanghai Third Middle School.
Girls’ schools are able to design special courses based on the characteristics of women to make up for weaknesses in traditional education and are better for girls to take advantage of their inherent strengths. As long as these schools are well directed, they will uncover women’s greatest potential and cultivate outstanding women.
Wang Jiaye:
In intelligence and emotional development, boys and girls have their respective features. Tailoring education specifically to girls is the essential purpose of girls’ schools. Girls’ schools today don’t go back to the closeted education of the past and they don’t just add some courses for women. Instead, the newly built girls’ middle school has made it very clear from the beginning that it will teach students based on gender. Teaching methods for some courses such as mathematics, physics and chemistry, would be specially designed for girls. At the same time, classes will be offered by the school based on young women’s advantages in imaginative thinking, appreciation of art and literature, and foreign language learning.
Xiao Cao:
In my opinion, the true purposes of setting up girls’ school are: first, the use of the establishment as a brand to attract students from wealthier families; second, they want to restrain impulses of youth, which is just suppressing their emotional needs and is bad for their growth.
China used to have many girls’ schools but most of them were shut down along with the progress of society. In ancient times, girls didn’t have the right to go to school for education, and some were even dressed as boys to sneak into schools in pursuit of knowledge. Girls’ schools appeared later as a demonstration of giving them the right to education.
But girls’ schools have many disadvantages, and the most important one is that it isolates girls and is bad for their emotional development. That’s why there are now few girls’ schools in China. Setting up girls’ schools is regressive rather than progressive.
Wen Xianliang:
Separating boys and girls and giving them different education is negative. A girls’ school is not good for the equal rights of men and women, neither is it good for good communication between these two groups in the future. What’s worse, it’s not good for the development of children’s gender identities. Separating boys and girls to avoid puppy love is a negative behavior. Cultivating gender identities from an early age is in accordance with the development trends of society.
Wu Zhongkui:
A girls’ middle school is not a good choice. It’s very important for girls at this age to maintain contact with boys. It’s a very significant phase of life and isolating girls during this period is harmful to their emotional development since the society is mixed and there are two genders. These girls will have difficulties or psychological problems in society in dealing with boys in the future.
As a transition, girls’ schools may be OK for girls to stay for one or two years, but staying there too long is definitely not good.

答案
Girls’ School Should Not Be Established There has long been a heated discussion on whether girls’ school should be established or not Advocates believe that schools specifically for girls could design curriculums based on girls’ feature, and thus uncover girls’ greatest potential and cultivate outstanding women. Opponents, however, argue that setting up girls’ school will isolate girls, suppress their emotions, cost them their social skills and is bad for their development in the long term. As for myself, I have a firm belief that girls’ school should not be established. To begin with, it is still questionable that single-sex education improves students’ academic performance. Girlspecific curriculums do not necessarily equal to good education. While the curriculums can be designed to be girlspecific, the teachers may not have enough training to employ girl-specific teaching techniques. Apart from high teaching quality, the elements of good education also include favorable learning atmosphere, structured daily and classroom routines, and dedicated and caring support staff, etc. Therefore, tailoring education specifically to girls does not necessarily guarantee better academic performance. Next, girls’ school is indeed unnecessary. Every individual student, be they girls or boys, develops at slightly different speeds, but few would thus advocate education should be tailored specifically to each of them. In fact, school curriculums are flexible enough and can be moulded to suit both girls and boys, faster and slower learners in coeducational schools. Lastly, as pointed out by the opponents, girls’ schools isolate girls and deprive them of the real world which will render it difficult for girls to deal with the opposite sex. As it is, girls’ schools expose girls only to other girls, which means that girls do not have enough opportunities to know and get along with boys. This can be detrimental to girls as they might be less capable of dealing with emotional issues and having healthy relationships with boys when they grow up. In conclusion, girls’ schools do not prove to be effective, and it is not only unnecessary but harmful. Therefore, it’s not advisable that such schools be established.
