参考范文

 

One important stage in a child's growth is certainly the development of conscience,which is linked to the ability to tell right from wrong. This skill comes with time and good parenting,and my firm conviction is that punishment does not have much of a role to play in this. Therefore I have to disagree almost entirely with the given statement.

 

To some extent the question depends on the age of the child. To punish a very young child is both wrong and foolish, as an infant will not understand what is happening or why he or she is being punished. Once the age of reason is reached however, a child can be rewarded for good behaviour and discouraged from bad. This kind but firm approach will be more effective than harsh punishment, which may entail many negative consequences unintended by the parents.

 

To help a child learn the difference between right and wrong, teachers and parents should firstly provide good role modelling in their own behaviour. After that, if sanctions are needed, the punishment should not be of a physical nature, as that merely sends the message that it is acceptable for larger people to hit smaller ones-an outcome which may well result in the child starting to bully others. Nor should the punishment be in any way cruel.

 

Rather,teachers and parents can use a variety of methods to discipline their young charges, such as detention, withdrawal of privileges, and time-out. Making the punishment fit the crime is a useful notion, which would see children being made to pick up rubbish they have dropped, clean up graffiti they have drawn,or apologise to someone they have hurt. In these ways responsibility is developed in the child, which leads to much better future behaviour than does punishment.

 

范文翻译

 

孩子成长的一个重要阶段无疑是良知的培养，而良知与分辨是非相关。这一能力的培养需要时间以及父母对孩子的良好养育，而且我坚信惩罚在这一过程中起不了太大作用。因此，我几乎完全不同意题目中所给出的观点。

 

在某种程度上，这个问题与孩子的年龄相关。惩罚一个年幼的孩子，既错误又愚蠢，因为婴儿不明白发生了什么也不理解自己为什么受惩罚。然而一旦孩子到了懂事的年纪，就可以对其好的行为进行奖励并劝阻其不好的行为。这种既和善又坚定的方式比严厉的惩罚有用得多，因为后者可能带来父母无意为之的负面结果。

 

为了帮助孩子明辨是非，老师和家长应首先通过自己的行为树立良好的榜样。此外，如果真的需要惩罚的话，那也不要采用体罚的方式，因为这么做只会传达出这样的信息：大个子的人是可以打小个子的-这样做可能导致孩子开始欺负其他人。惩罚也不应该采取任何残忍的方式。

 

当然，老师和家长可以采用很多方法管教孩子，比如课后留校，撤除优待以及隔离处罚。惩罚与过错相称是一种有用的观念，可以让孩子拾起自己扔的垃圾，清洗自己的涂鸦，或向自己伤害过的某个人道歉。这样可以培养孩子的责任感，与惩罚相比，这可以让孩子将来的行为更加得体。
