雅思寫作經(jīng)典范文：論述你心目中的老師

Some people think that teachers should be responsible for teaching students how to judge right and wrong and how to behave well. Some say that teachers should only teach students about academic subjects. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

毋庸置疑，老師在學生全面發(fā)展的道路上所發(fā)揮的作用是多方面的。作為教師，首要任務就是向?qū)W生傳授學術(shù)知識，然而，確保學生在其它方面取得進步亦是同樣重要的。

There is no denying that a teacher’s role in the overall development of a student is multifaceted. As teacher, one’s primary obligation is to teach students academic knowledge. Yet, it is equally important for him to make sure that the students make progresses in other aspects.

首先，能否有效地向?qū)W生傳遞學術(shù)知識是評判一名教師合格與否的第一、同時也是最重要的標準。學生在校期間的主要任務就是為更高層次的學習奠定扎實基礎(chǔ)，因此，教師的任務就是幫助他們達到預期的目標。

First of all, whether one can effectively pass academic knowledge to the students makes the first and most important criterion for judging him as a qualified or unqualified teacher. The main task for the students to perform at school is to lay a solid foundation for their study at a higher level, thus the task for a teacher is to assist them to achieve this goal.

第二，老師的職責并非僅僅局限于向?qū)W生傳授學術(shù)知識。學生還應該不斷提升自己辨別是非的能力，從而可以在步出校門時成為好公民。要做到這一點，老師要扮演的角色就不止是教授文化課這么單一了。他需要為學生樹立道德典范并與學生分享或討論對社會上諸多現(xiàn)象的觀點和看法。

Second, a teacher’s obligation is not just confined to passing on academic knowledge to the students. The students are also supposed to develop their ability to judge right from wrong, thus becoming good citizens when they step out of school. To do this, a teacher will have more roles to play than just teaching academic subjects. He will have to set a good example of morality himself and share or discuss with his students his viewpoints towards different phenomena in the society. In a sense, apart from the role as pure academic teacher, he also serves the roles of students’ parents at school.

誠然，老師可以相對保證學生學習方面的進步，而在道德規(guī)范方面就不見得這么有把握。這主要是因為社會是個大染缸，最終被染成什么顏色是多方面共同作用的結(jié)果，這其中就有家庭和所有其它方面的影響，所以，從這個方面來講，老師的作用畢竟還是有限的。

Admittedly, a teacher can relatively be more sure about the academic progress of the students, but not that sure about their moral development for the simple reason that the society is a big dyeing pool in which one’s being dyed into a certain color is the result of many factors of which family and many other things also have a role to play. Therefore, seen from this perspective, the influence of a teacher is, after all, limited.

由此，我們可以得出這樣的結(jié)論：老師除了教授學生學術(shù)知識外，還應該竭力塑造他們的個性與道德形象，同時，全社會應該協(xié)力確保學生們的全面發(fā)展。

From the above discussion, we can come to the conclusion that apart from teaching students academic subjects, a teacher should also try his best to mould their personality and moral image. Meanwhile, the society as a whole is also supposed to work together to ensure the students’ overall development.
