例文.1
That the subjects should be essential incurriculum at school has controversial. Several people believe that some artcourses such as painting and ought not to forced to learn at high school. Ipartly agree with this opinion.
To begin with, these classes do not providethe important knowledge for pupils, so it is time-consuming for students who donot fond of studying them. In detail, attending an art class is simply in formof entertainment, therefore a lot of students want to spend this time onreceiving necessary lessons instead of drawing a picture or singing a song.Moreover, that art classes are compulsory for students sometimes affect on theresult. For instance, some students have good mark on science subjects likemath, biology but they do not have talent to perform arts, the final result ofthese students are not appreciated.
Nevertheless, there are some benefits inproviding art lessons on both schools and students. Firstly, art classesincrease the impacts among the members of the class. It is also known as amethod to mitigate the pressure for students after tighten period. In addition,it is a good way to discover the talents in art section. For example, accordingto one art class, the school can recognize the students who have ability todraw the nice pictures and develope this skill. One more thing, the studentscan improve the imigination and have the opportunities to make the creativethings.
In conclusion, although there are someadvantages on studying art classes, students should have options to chosewhether they ought to learn art subjects or not. High schools can put them intooptional category to develope abilities and interest of the students.

Nowadays, many people contemplate whetherart classes should be compulsory courses of high school. I believe it isabsolutely necessary to make this idea come true as soon as possible.
One of the reasons is that some artworksare rich in knowledge and through appreciating these artworks in class,students can have access to a wide range of knowledge. For example, comparedwith the limited narration in history book, one of the masterpieces of Leonardodi ser Piero da Vinci, The Last Supper, displays a scene of religion in a morevivid and profound way. Art classes offer students another opportunity to thinkabout some knowledge and these classes are significant complement to some coreclasses like math and science.Without these art classes, students can onlyacquire knowledge through words, which is not always the most effective andcomprehensive approach to learn.
Apart from that, the underlying merits ofattending art classes will benefit the students in the long term,which are noless than those of studying some core subjects As we know, academic performanceis no longer the only standard to judge a student for many universities and asresult, being adept at music or painting do help. After they enter theuniversity,even if they study other majors in college, the skills qualitiescultivated through these art classes may assist them to perform better. Theabilities to be focused, to be detail-oriented and to be persistent will beconducive to students no matter what their disciplines are.
Considering the advantages of making artclasses a complosory part in high school discussed above, I believe it is awise choice from every aspect.

No one can deny theimportance of art to the well-being of mankind:art enlightens people, expresseshuman emotions and provides spiritual enjoyment.It has also been scientificallyproven that engaging in some art activitiessuch as drawing a picture or playinga musical instrument can help a child todevelop hand-eye coordination, colorrecognition and imagination effectively.However, reaching the conclusion thatart is important is not the same asassuming that art classes should be a mandatorypart of high school curriculum.
First, compulsory art classeswill be very unpopular among highschool students who aim at universities orcolleges which do not requireperformance in art-related subjects for admission.These students would naturallyprefer to focus on enhancing GPA andparticipating in social activities thatare essential for their future universityapplication. The class attendance,assignment and preparation for exams entailedby a compulsory course willinevitably add burden to students' ever-growing listof demands.
Even if some institutions oftertiary education do requirecandidates' competence in art, such competence isunlikely to be provided by thegeneral art education in a non-art-specializingschool. So it will be betterfor students who have special demands in art eitherto attend an art school orto seek extra help from other artistically-professionalorganizations.
Second, interest and talentin art are not universal. Somestudents may feel sleepy at the very thought ofattending an art class; othersmay enjoy appreciating a beautiful painting orlistening to a piece of music,but they do not like the idea of having to draw apicture or play a musicalinstrument themselves. As a result, art classes mightbring these students asense of frustration, causing them to link art classes tosomething unpleasant.This is especially true when considering that manystudents tend to develop anaversion to things that they are forced to do butthat are not directly relatedto their future.
Finally, disapprovingcompulsory art educationin high school does not mean that students are deniedthe chance of receivingproper art education. Schools may well offer electivecourses in painting,drawing or music for interested students to take. This willensure that theneeds of some students are met without having to make otherstudents feelunnecessarily overburdened or frustrated. To sum up, art isimportant, butforcing high school students to attend art classes may defeat thevery purposeof art education.
