一直以来我都认为，某些初高中禁止学生谈恋爱是惨无人道的行为!某些家长也跟风响应真是让人无语。学校不懂事儿也就算了，你都为人父为人母了，怎么还这么没有判断力和主见呢!某些学校把如此美丽又正常的人类本性搞得像犯法一样，现在社会里一些畸形的恋爱观就是学校没教育好的结果!最搞笑的是上了大学没多久就开始催着孩子相亲，大学刚毕业居然逼着孩子结婚生子，这种莫名其妙的行为也真是……
还好总是有一些特别给力的couple们，啪啪打学校和某些家长的脸，你不是说谈恋爱耽误成绩么?那我就偏要边谈恋爱边当学霸!你不是说puppy love不能长久就是在浪费彼此的时间么?那我们结婚的时候就偏要找你来当证婚人!
于是雅思口语Part 2有关学校的rules，简直可以抨击的地方太多，选对了一个点，开启吐槽模式吧：
Our high school has a zero-tolerance policy about puppy love, which I’m strongly against. Our school’s concern is that dating can be distracting for students who should focus 100 % on their study. Plus, high school students are too young to handle the complicated stuff in a romantic relationship. There’s always news about students committing suicide after a nasty break-up. Our school doesn’t want to see that kind of tragedy happen to us.
However, our school is being totally unreasonable. For starters, about the distraction part, I actually know a lot of couples who got into prestigious universities together. So you see, it has absolutely no negative effect on our study at all. For those who actually did horribly at their study, well, personally I believe it has nothing to do with puppy love. I mean, they would have bad grades even if they didn’t date.
And I’m not happy about being called ‘immature’. Today’s teenagers are more sophisticated and mature than those in the past. We are fully capable of dealing with all those complex stuff when we are having a relationship.
Besides, it’s human nature to find another person to care about and love, it’s just wrong for our school to have this stupid rule. I strongly believe that dating helps us grow, and learn about how to care about others instead of being a selfish person.
