Traditional characters, which date back to more than 2000 years ago, have a more beautiful appearance and a more reasonable structure. As indicated by the 親 and 愛 examples, traditional characters make more n, convey traditional values and can therefore reprent traditional culture. For two millennia, Chine historical records and classic works were written in traditional characters. To be able to read them and inherit traditional cultures, we need to bring traditional characters back. Politically, it is also necessary to restore traditional Chine characters. Currently, traditional characters are still in u in Hong Kong, Taiwan and many Chine communities around the world. Restoring them can contribute to cross-Strait exchanges and national reunifications and unite Chine people around the world. | In today’s world, efficiency matters most. Traditional characters, which usually have more strokes than simplified ones, are more difficult to learn. By contrast, simplified characters are much easier to learn and u. Over the past 50 years, lots of classic texts have been turned into simplified-character versions, which means simplified characters can also promote and prerve traditional culture. Constant simplification has been a trend in the evolution of Chine characters. From the oracle bones script of 3000 years ago to traditional characters, the Chine writing system has always been slimming down for better communication. |

写作指南
考生在下笔之前应先审题，明确写作要求：针对“我们究竟是该恢复中文繁体字还是继续使用简体汉字”这一热议话题，首先总结正反方的意见，然后给出个人观点。文章结构可安排如下：
第一段：简要概括赞同和反对恢复繁体字方和提倡使用简体字方的观点，
第二段： 表明自己的观点：复兴繁体字是不明智的。直击正方观点漏洞，分三点铺陈论证。繁体字在沟通交流上效率不及简体字；繁体字可读性和可接受性不强；保存传统文化和价值并不是只有恢复繁体字这一种方式。
第三段：重申观点——恢复中文繁体字不是明智之举。
The necessity to revive traditional Chine characters has aroud an increasingly heated discussion for decades蝶恋花图片. Some in favor of it hold that traditional Chine character
s, with a more vivid and descriptive appearance, is a perfect embodiment of traditional culture and a bond for cross-Straits exchanges and national reunification (复兴). Some are against it for its complexity to write and inefficiency to communicate, which can be otherwi avoided by simplified characters河马怎么画. Besides, simplified characters can also rve the purpo of promoting traditional culture and this simplified writing system is an irreversible (不可逆的) trend.
From my perspective, it's not wi to deliberately / intentionally initiate a renaissance of traditional Chine characters for following reasons:
First and foremost, words and language are tools created for better communication. In this n, efficiency is of utmost importance if simplified Chine characters can perform the same function of the traditional ones.

Secondly, readability (可读性) and acceptability are potential barriers / hindrance to the restoration (恢复) of traditional characters. Most of mainland Chine learn simplified characters from their infancy / childhood. So it will be hard for them to accept a totally unf
amiliar word system.
Last, traditional Chine characters do help cultural inheritance 帝俊(传承), but it doesn't mean reviving it is the sole (唯一的) way to prerve traditional culture and values.
Taking the above factors into consideration, I think it is unwi to revive traditional Chine characters.

Term-time holidays will be banned
Parents are to be banned by Michael Gove, UK’s Education Secretary, from taking their children out of school to save money on holidays.
He is to abolish the right of head teachers to “authori abn” from the classroom, which has been ud to let families take term-time breaks, and will warn them they face fines for their children not being at school.

“Any time out of school has the potential to damage a child’s education,” a nior source at the Department for Education said this weekend. “That is why the government will end the distinction between authorized and unauthorized abnce.”
“This is part of the government’s wider commitment to bring down truancy (['truːənsɪ]旷课) levels in our schools. There will also be stricter penalties (['penəltɪ] 处罚) for parents and schools.”
The tough measures on truancy are part of a wider attempt by Mr Gove to make education more academically rigorous and to tackle a culture in the educational establishment which he believes has accepted “excus for failure”.
