阅读下面短文,然后按要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文

In junior high school, one of my classmates, Ethan, was addicted to TV. This boy simply knew everything about such pop shows as Who’s the Boss?

Then one day Ethan’s mother made him an offer in order to draw him back to his school subjects. She promised that she would give him $200 if he could go a full month without watching any TV. None of us thought Ethan could do it, but he did quit TV. His mom paid him $200. He went out and bought a TV, the biggest he could find.

       In recent years, hundreds of schools have carried out experiments with paying kids with cash for showing up or getting good grades. All school kids admire this trend. But it upsets adults. Teachers say that we are rewarding kids for doing what they should be doing of their own will. Psychologists warn that money can actually make kids perform worse by making the act of learning cheap. The debate has become a typical battle over why our kids are not learning at the rate they should be despite decades of reforms and budget increases.

答案

Ethan's mom used money for encouraging him to be devoted to learning, but she failed. In fact, kids are happy to be rewarded with money while some teachers and psychologists are upset. (32 words)

       Rewarding a child with cash is a common phenomenon in reality, and it does even become a trend. Form where I stand, I am not in favour of encouraging kids with cash. To get kids motivated to learn, we should not treat every child in the same way. To some students, oral praise is essential and adequate. However, this method may not work well with other kids. Maybe what counts more to them is to watch a movie or go on a trip together with their parents. It just depends. My parents used to encourage me by leading me to have more reading. Whenever I made progress in my studies, they bought me my favourite books, which not only motivated me, but also helped me get along well with my studies.

In conclusion, schools and parents should educate their kids by teaching them to study for themselves and the society rather than simply offering them money to do something passively. Only by building up some noble and long-range aims can they study on their own initiative.
