7、 young person are entitled to experience a broad general education. Even if a student does not aim to be a professional musician they should still have the opportunity to learn an instrument. A career is not the only, or the most important, part of an adults lifeschool needs to make sure they have i

8、nterests and skills that will help them in their family and leisure life too. Megan: Extra-curricular activities are prohibitively expensive for schools. Giving a greater place in education to the extra-curriculum means that many more clubs and activities will have to be organised for students. This

9、 will be very expensive as it will require more staff and more resources to be paid for. This explains why most schools that currently offer a large extra-curriculum are well-funded fee-paying institutions. Nimmo: Extra-curricular activities have important health benefits. Most extra-curricular acti

10、vities are physically active, getting the students out from behind their desks and making them try new things. Physical activity is extremely important for general health whilst ensuring that students are exposed to practical tasks, not just what is taught in class. Sport clubs and teams give studen

11、ts the opportunity to do physical exercise in an enjoyable environment. TVO: Making extra-curricular activities compulsory makes them less attractive to students. It will take the fun out of it and strip it of its benefits. In the end, the key is fun. Successful extra-curricular groups work precisel

12、y because the students have voluntarily chosen to be there. If some were forced to take part, they would be less enthusiastic and spoil the activity for the rest.

15、e and organizing skills to set up their own clubs, teams and activity groups when they leave education. A successful extra-curriculum often depends on building links between the school and the wider community, bringing local enthusiasts in to work with students, and sending students out to work on c

16、ommunity projects. Nicola: Students should focus on gaining the specialist skills they need for their chosen professions. Most specialist professions still provide a range of career opportunities, without any need to compromise academic education by over-emphasis on non-academic activities. There ar

17、e concerns that schools do not focus enough on core subjects.

20、ld remain in putonghua, but programmes can be shown in local dialects on local channels, ideally with subtitles or captioning available, especially in the case of news programming. Tyne While many people say that as a form of mass media, TV and radio broadcasters are obligated to take the lead in po

21、pularizing standard putonghua. It is not a move to oppress dialects; it is only to restrict irresponsible use of language in mass media such as slang, which is very unprofessional. maplerripple Apart from CCTV, all broadcasters should be commercially based.

Dialects are localized languages, not widely used throughout China, just confined to the various dialectic groups, hence they should not be promoted via the mass media, certa

24、inly not on TV or the radio, not even on local stations! All local stations must help promote the national language, putonghua! It is very annoying for most people to hear dialects on TV or the radio because they cant understand what is said, unless they belong to that dialectic group. The role of t

Keep the dialects to the coffee shops, street markets, etc. , but not on TV or the radio. Another very important reason why only putonghua, and no dialects, should

26、 be allowed on air, is that it is the only language that most foreigners have learned before or after arriving in China, and this is the only language that can bridge the communication gap between them and the locals. Imagine how problematic it would be for a foreigner travelling through China; he h

27、as to learn each of those local dialects as he travels to different provinces, if putonghua is not used widely there! And by the way, this problem is not limited to foreigners only, even the Chinese face the same problem. A Chinese from Shandong traveling to Guangdong is not going to be able to unde

28、rstand the guy in Guangdong who speaks Cantonese instead of putonghua, and vice versa! I strongly urge that putonghua be promoted and used widely, for the benefit of all, both the locals and foreigners! ngajia Cantonese has 9 tones, not 6. By the linguists rule: the more tones a language has, the mo
