答案    What is the most significant factor in influencing the shaping of characters and personality of a child? Do academic subjects really render everything necessary for children’s all-round development? Most schools put major emphasis on academic teaching because it is believed that academic subjects can guarantee better future careers. However, in fact, other subjects such as literature, music and sports, are more crucial to children’s development for they can give children many things beyond academic learning, including teamwork spirit, endurance and healthy physical body.
   It is true that academic subjects can provide children with some fundamental knowledge and it is with such knowledge that they net only get further education and skills themselves, but also contribute to the material development of our country. As a result, many parents consider academic excellence as the best and even only way for their children to pursue better future careers, and academic subjects are estimated to contribute more to the development of the society than subjects like literature, music and sports. However, as far as I am concerned, academic learning is like the fundamental structure of architecture, which can only be improved and perfected by some other decorations, and that means it is supplementary subjects that can refine a child’s development.
   Learning literature can make children sensitive to things around them and help them become careful observers; music can tell children how to relax themselves and get inspirations through the power of it; sports can help build strong wills and bodies for children for it shows to them the spirit of endurance and teamwork. We know that all these qualities are badly needed in children’s social lives in the future, especially when they get along or work with other people, when they confront difficulties or obstacles, and so on.
   What our society needs are not people who know nothing besides their textbooks, but people who know how to apply what they learn, know how to appreciate and endure in their lives, in other words, people with full sensibilities and practical skills, which are not things we can expect children to learn from only academic subjects.
   In conclusion, schools should roach a balance between academic subjects and other ones, so that we can expect new generations with all-round development, who are well aware of the purpose of everything they are doing and who can contribute to the development of the society not only materially but also spiritually.
解析    题目要求探讨教育到底应该是注重学术学习，还是应该注重文学、艺术、体育这些课程。这种情况下，采用中立的写作方法最简单。在文章开始处提山观点，就是学校的教育应该两者平衡。中间部分可以先论述学术学习的好处——专业素质高，将来可以找到好工作，而且会为社会的发展多做贡献；再说文学、艺术、体育这些课程能够给学生带来的好处——全面发展，有自己独立的思想。最后是结尾，重申自己的观点，教育应当在两者间取得平衡。
   在写作本文的时候，切忌说话空洞，要具体地说明两类学科的好处，在布局时这两部分沦述要保持平衡。
