　　Some people think that it is better to educate boys and girls in separate schools. Others, however, believe that boys and girls benefit more from attending mixed schools.Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

　　一些人认为在男女分校中教育男生和女生会更好。然而，另外一些人认为男女生会从混合学校中受益更多。讨论双方的观点并给出你的见解。

　　Some countries have single-sex education models, while in others both single sex and mixed schools coexist and it is up to the parents or the children to decide which model is preferable.

　　Some educationalists think it is more effective to educate boys and girls in single-sex schools because they believe this environment reduces distractions and encourages pupils to concentrate on their studies. This is probably true to some extent. It also allows more equality among pupils and gives more opportunity to all those at the school to choose subjects more freely without gender prejudice. For example, a much higher proportion of girls study science to a high level when they attend girls' schools than their counterparts in mixed schools do. Similarly, boys in single-sex schools are more likely to take cookery classes and to study languages, which are often thought of as traditional subjects for girls.

　　On the other hand, some experts would argue that mixed schools prepare their pupils better for their future lives. Girls and boys learn to live and work together from an early age and are consequently not emotionally underdeveloped in their relations with the opposite sex. In this way, boys do not grow up imaging that women are mysterious creatures and girls do not grow up scared of men. They are also able to learn from each other,and to experience different types of skill and talent that might be evident in a single gender environment.

　　Personally, I think that although there are advantages to both systems, I prefer to go to a mixed school. We should first think about the aim of education at school. Cramming children's heads full of knowledge is by no means the main purpose. The more important goal is to prepare them to take their place in adult society. As this society is made up of males and females, a segregated school consisting only of members of the same sex can not serve this purpose well.
