In modern megacities, it is common to see that children at 5 years old are required to attend a variety of curriculums such as dancing, drawing and second language learning. Some people contend that it contributes to their individual development. From my perspective, I agree with this view to some extent.
Admittedly, it is indispensable to urge children to work hard in such a competitive society. In fact, when entering primary schools, pupils endeavor to gain better grades and teachers' compliment. If they fail to devote themselves to study, it is likely for them to fall behind peers or even lose the interest in learning. In addition, one's potential can never be achieved without persistent efforts. Most distinguished pianists or dancers started their training at the age of three or four, spending all time in learning and practicing. So do the authoritative learners who had cultivated the reading habit at their early age.
Furthermore, a hardworking or diligent learning attitude benefits children for the whole life. There is an old saying that: “ You must reap what you have sown.” It means that whether success of academic work, career or life can be achievable depends on how hard a person works. Consequently, in order to cope with the adversity and hardship, there is no doubt that children are supposed to be instilled and conform to this approach.
However, we can not deny the negative impacts it brings. The first one is that childhood, which is often thought as the happiest time of one's life, may be filled with mathematic formulas or new vocabularies. Naturally, less time is left for children to appreciate the magic of nature or share happiness and sorrows with friends. What's worse, once lost, it lost forever. How could a young man experience the same feeling as a kid even if they are flying a kite together? Mankind can never walk back to the past.
In conclusion, I firmly believe that children should be forced to work hard from a young age in an attempt to make brilliant achievements while it does not mean that all their leisure activities should be banned. Instead, they are encouraged to alternate work with rest.

The pressure of students in university is increasing rapidly in recent years, since having a bachelor degree is not an edge in the job market any more. Therefore, some people are entertaining the idea that students should be pushed to work hard at young age so as to excel.However, I believe that this would lead to several undesirable consequences.
Students are getting more pressured to achieve their goals mostly set up by their parents or teachers early in life, and getting good grades has become one of them that they are aspiring for. It has been perceived that a good academic record from school can lead to a better academic qualification which could possibly place someone to a decent job. With such belief,people may neglect on the negative effects of the pressure students are encountering. In order to develop students' potentials in academic studies as much as possible, many schools today practice an elite students policy that students are taught separately according to their levels of intelligence. But what makes it a mockery is that instead of making them outstanding, those selected children in advanced classes are deprived of a normal but essential part of growing up, and those who are rejected from studying with the gifted students usually suffer psychological pressure from their parents or themselves not being “good” enough.
Many parents and teachers have a distorted recognition of education today and sometimes students themselves believe that the only purpose of going to school is simply to guarantee a future career and gaining a better chance Of employment. But they have witnessed examples of young people who are struggling to find jobs and those who have found work is being underpaid and exploited. Therefore, pe?ple are believed that students should work harder at young age to stand out in adulthood. But, this pressure-driven fashion of education leads to a negative attitude to learning.
All the stress experienced by a student now should be considered seriously, and before making young minds ready for the competitive world too early, allowing them to study and live in a cooperative way is essential for their growing up.

These days we can see many parents pushing their kids to learn all kinds of things by taking them to various after-school programs. This is because, as these parents would claim, that the pressure the kids will face in future is increasing and therefore they should “get started” as early as possible. But personally, I disagree with these well-intentioned parents.
现在，我们可以看到许多父母带着孩子们到各种各样的课后班去学习各种知识。这是因为，正如这些父母所声称的那样，孩子们未来面临的压力在增加，所以他们应该尽早“开始”。但就我个人而言，我不同意这些好心的父母。
Admittedly, the kids in early-start mode may excel their peers in school grades, but this mode can also result in negative consequences. Forcing a kid to sit at home and learn things in which he/she does not have any interest at all when he/she is supposed to play with other kids outside might eventually kill the kid's passion for learning. That is exactly why many kids who did really well in primary school end up nowhere when they get to the university level. So, in order not to drain up the kids' oil tank, I would suggest that they be left on the playground as much as possible rather than in their study.
诚然，这些“早开始”模式的孩子可能比同龄的孩子成绩好，但这种模式也会导致负面的后果。当孩子应该在外与其他孩子一起玩耍，却强迫他/她坐在家里学习完全不感兴趣的东西，这可能最终会浇灭孩子的学习热情。这就是为什么许多孩子小学时成绩很好，但到了大学阶段就一事无成。所以，为了不把孩子们的油箱给抽干，我建议尽量把他们留在操场上，而不是书房里。
Furthermore, pushing the kids to learn at their early age may give them the harmful impression that life is just like a must-win battle in which they have no alternative but work still harder. For many people, this life philosophy may sound logical enough, but for young kids, this is a little too much because it will spoil their care-free childhood on the one hand, and do no good to develop their right attitude towards life on the other. That is the reason why so many early-start children do not know how to cope with competition and pressure in their future work.
此外，强迫孩子们在很小的时候就努力学习可能会给他们一种有害的印象，认为生活就像是一场必胜的战争，他们除了努力工作别无选择。对许多人而言，这种生活哲学听起来很合乎逻辑，但对于小孩子来说，这有点太过分了，因为这一方面会破坏他们无忧无虑的童年，另一方面也不利于他们培养对生活的正确态度。这就是为什么这么多“早开始的”孩子不知道如何应对未来工作的竞争和压力的原因。
To conclude, pushing young kids to work hard is harmful, rather than beneficial, to their future. To maintain their passion for learning and life, the really wise parents should leave the choices to kids themselves about when to learn and what to learn.
总之，强迫年幼的孩子努力学习对他们的未来是有害的，而不是有益的。为了保持孩子们对学习和生活的热情，真正明智的父母应该把选择留给孩子们，让他们决定何时学习和学习什么。
参考范文
Some people believe that students need to work diligently from an early age since they face increasing more pressure at high school and university. However, I cannot agree with this opinion.
第二段，承认一下早学的好处——
Admittedly, studying harder can make students become more competitive when they receive higher education. It is acknowledged that knowledge one learns at high school and university is more difficult than that of primary and secondary school. If students can learn more knowledge earlier, when they go to high school and university, they probably find that some courses are quite easy for them since they learn some knowledge in advance. However, admitting merits brought by studying harder is not assuming that young students must spend more time on it.
第三段，让学生太早注重学习容易带来反效果
To begin with, students may lose their interest in study if they are forced to study from an early age. For most primary and secondary students, it may be difficult for them to understand the reason why they need to work hard; in other words, they probably lack motivation for study. Providing that schools or parents demand them to concentrate on courses, taking classes will become a boring task for them. Then, it is more likely that students will dislike study, but not focus on it.
第四段，没时间发展自己的兴趣了
In addition, spending too time on study, students will have insufficient time to develop their own hobbies. In the current era, receiving higher education is not the only option for students and many of them can make a living through their personal interests. For example, some students show their talents in taking photos or playing electronic games and there are a lot of photographers and players who live a comfortable life. If students are asked to spend more time on study, their talents in other fields may be neglected.
第五段，做一个小小总结——
To sum up, there is no need for students to study harder when they are young, considering that they do not have time for developing their own interests and some of them even dislike study.
