Losers Need More Encouragement

When the national entrance examination is over, peoplealways pay more attention to those who are enrolled by colleges anduniversities. Those who failed the examination are treated coldly. Beingenrolled by colleges and universities is, of course, worth congratulating. Butgiving the successful candidates excessive praise and neglecting those whofailed the examination might send the wrong message: young people do not have abright future unless they go to college or university.

當(dāng)全國高考結(jié)束的時候，人們總是關(guān)注那些被大學(xué)錄取的人。那些在考試中失敗的則被冷落。獲得大學(xué)的錄取當(dāng)然值得慶祝。但是，給予獲得成功的考生過多的贊揚(yáng)而忽略了那些在考試中失敗的人可能會傳達(dá)這樣一種信息，即年輕人如果不上大學(xué)就沒有光明的未來。

Teachers, parents and society, therefore, should givemore attention to students failing the examination. They are in more urgentneed of understanding, warmth and encouragement. We should tell them that to goto college is not the only way to success, and that, if they make enougheffort, they can still develop talents in other occupations that will servesociety.

因此，老師、家長和社會應(yīng)該更關(guān)注在考試中失敗的同學(xué)，他們更加需要迫切的理解、溫暖和鼓勵。我們應(yīng)該告訴他們上大學(xué)不是成功的唯一道路，只要他們足夠努力他們同樣可以在其他職業(yè)發(fā)揮自己的天賦，服務(wù)社會。

Personally, the country’s economic developmentrequires not only specialized scientists and technical experts, but alsoknowledge-based workers and skilled laborers. After some vocational training,these senior high school students can also become backbones in their own fieldsand contribute their wisdom to our society.

就個人而言，國家的經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展不僅僅需要專業(yè)的科學(xué)家和技術(shù)專家，同時也需要有知識基礎(chǔ)的工人和技術(shù)工人。經(jīng)過一些職業(yè)培訓(xùn)，這些高中生也能夠成為他們領(lǐng)域的脊梁柱，為我們的社會貢獻(xiàn)他們的智慧。
