too often fires happen while old buildings are being repaired Experts say that what is needed is continuous attention and maintenance 维护 These steps if taken could help avoid the need for major repairing work But regular attention and maintenance costs money Part of the problem comes from the shortage of money provided by governments after the 2008 第 5 页 共 15 页 financial crisis 金融危机 As a

take a test tomorrow I don t understand any of it she cries out After shouting and shutting her door she calms down enough to go through her notes The following dry I ask her how the test went and the just says OK I got a nine Wow well done I say before she finishes with But I never get a ten According to James this obsession with getting top marks has been a bad development which encourages people to think of education in terms of work and money To test this I asked my daughter why she was so worried about her tests She looked at me as if I was thick Well if I don t get good grades I won t be able to afford nice things like a car and stuff I was quite surprised because I don t consider myself a pushy parent But James suggests and it leaves students feeling failures even if they are very bright He points to the Danish system 体制 of education as a better model Creating happy citizens who have good social skills is seen as more important than high achievements at school or the needs of business For me I cannot remember the last time I had to work out the area of a circle recite a Shakespeare poem or grammar rules yet I have lived a happy life What I really needed to learn at school was how to make polite conversations or how to avoid getting into debt or how to develop good personality This is in fact similar to what Oliver James really has in mind And he is looking for schools where students are encouraged to find and follow their own interests something more like Tongjon Tongjon has been developed in some Korean private schools It is quite different from the more rigid system of learning things by heart that is used in Korea and indeed in many other school systems around the world As the Russian poet Pushkin said Inspiration 灵感 is needed in geometry 几何学 just as much as in poetry and inspiration does not come from endlessly revising for tests or getting worried about them 1 What does the writer probably think of his her daughter A She sets herself a goal too high
