孩子们沉重的负担Heavy Burden on Children

With competitions becoming increasinglyfierce in our society, more and more parents are busy enrolling their childrento a variety of hobby group, such as, math, English, mental arithmetic,singing, dancing, writing and so on. Parents think these are good for theirchildren to do preparation for their future. But I don’t agree with it. Maybethese interest groups will do good to the children, but too much stress from theinterest classes will give heavy burden on children.
随着社会竞争的日益激烈，越来越多的家长都忙着把自己的孩子送去参加各种兴趣班，如数学，英语，心算，唱歌，跳舞，写作等。父母认为这些有助于他们的孩子为未来做好准备。但是,我不这么认为。也许这些对孩子们是有好处的，但是从兴趣班中越来越大的压力会给孩子带来沉重的负担。
In the first place, taking too muchinterest classes will deprive children of their freedom time. Although childrenare in a young age, they still have to go to school, which will take up theirsome time. They have to take part in some hobby groups after school, which theymay not really interested in. Can you imagine how many free time do they have?They have to study and study during their whole childhood. This may havenegative effect on forming good characters for children.
首先，参加过多的兴趣班会剥夺了孩子们的自由时间。虽然孩子们还很年轻，但他们还是得去上学的，这就占用了他们很多的时间。他们要在课后参加的一些兴趣班。你能想象他们还能有多少空闲时间呢？整个童年他们都是在学习中度过的。这可能对儿童性格的形成造成负面的影响。
Last but not least, the so called interestclasses may not cause the interest of children. The cram classes that parentschoose for their children are not really the real hobby of their children. Ifthey have to be forced to do the things that they don’t like in a young age,how can they have a happy childhood? In addition, children may have no time todevelop their true interest, because they have to do the things that theirparents consider are their interest.
最后但并非最不重要的是，所谓的兴趣班可能根本就不是孩子们的兴趣。家长为孩子们选的兴趣班也许并不是孩子们真正的爱好。如果他们在小小年纪就被逼做一些不喜欢的事，他们怎么能有一个快乐的童年呢？此外，孩子们可能也没有时间去培养自己的真正的兴趣，因为他们必须要做他们父母认为他们感兴趣的事。
To sum up, forcing children to take up toomuch interest classes will increase the heavy burden on children. Parentsshould pay more time to figure out their children’s real interest and lead themto the right way, not force them to do things.综上所述，强迫孩子参加更多的兴趣班会增加孩子们的负担。父母应该花更多的时间来找出孩子的真正的兴趣，用正确的方式的引导他们，而不是强迫他们。
