3. 1) Chinese isn't a subject that can be picked up in a month. You can't

accomplish your goal of mastering the language unless you work at it for

years. Well, it sounds as if I'm exaggerating the difficulties, but the

fact is I'm only telling the truth.

2)The principal is somewhat disappointed with the performance of the children.

From what she has gathered, some of the teaching staff have neglected their

pupils. She has just announced that strict work regulations have been made

and that they apply to both Chinese and overseas teachers.

3)The teacher-directed and the child-directed approaches to teaching art

represent two extremes of opinion. Too many teacher-directed activities

cannot be expected to effectively assist children in learning because of

the rigid structure. On the other hand, too many child-directed activities

may see a curriculum that is totally unstructured and out of control. There

are valid reasons to believe a teacher-guided approach would be a superior

way to guide children's development. This approach combines some form of

structure with the child leading the direction.

2. passage translation

To improve our English, it is critical to do more reading, writing, listening and speaking. Besides, learning by heart as many well-written essays as possible

is also very important. Without an enormous store of good English writing in your head you cannot express yourself freely in English. It is also helpful to summarize our experience as we go along, for in so doing, we can figure out which way of learning is more effective and will produce the most desirable result. As long as we keep working hard on it, we will in due course accomplish the task of mastering English.
