范文：

Almost everybody who lives in the urban areas of China is familiar with the phenomenon shown in this picture. The gate of a school is blocked by dozens of cars that belong to the loving parents who send children there. However, a teacher, who rides bicycle to school, finds difficulty in entering the gate because the cars leave no space for him.

This picture sharply points out two serious problems existing in today’s educational circle. The first one is parents’ blind pampering of children. Though it is a universal truth that parents always desire to grant kids with the best stuff available, we should bear in mind that convenient facilities bring temporary comfort but perhaps life-long laziness. The second issue addressed is the depressing social status that teachers enjoy. Despite the fact that teachers take charge of such an honored mission of enlightening humans, they are usually looked down upon and receive small salaries. It is a big contrast compared with their wealthy students.

These attitudes of indulging children and disrespect towards teachers should arouse more opposing voices. On the one hand, the society demands a generation that fully comprehends how to lead a self-sustaining life. On the other hand, for teachers’ priceless contribution, they should be rewarded by due attention and more benefits.

译文：

每一个住在中国城市地区的人对于这幅图描绘的景象都十分熟悉。学校的大门前挤满了轿车，都是慈爱的父母们来送自己的孩子上学。可是，一个骑车来学校的教师却无法进入校门，因为根本没有空间可以让他进去。

这幅图尖锐地指出了存在于教育界的两个问题。第一个是父母对于孩子的盲目溺爱。尽管父母希望把能够得到最好的最好东西都给孩子，我们也应该牢记便利的设施可能带来暂时的舒适、却会造成孩子们的懒惰并导致他们持续一生的坏习惯。另一个问题就是教师的社会地位非常低。尽管教师承担了启蒙人类的光荣使命，但是他们却经常被人看低，而且工资也非常少。这与他们那些富裕的学生们形成了鲜明的对比。

这种宠爱孩子和不尊重教师的态度应该引起更多反对的呼声。一方面，社会需要的是一代能够充分理解如何自立生活的孩子。另一方面，教师们为我们做出了无价的贡献，我们应该给予他们更多的关注和利益。
