Dear Principal,
As to the use of the large sum of money raise in our school recently, I am concerned about it because there is nothing more important than caring our nation’s development as a Chinese. I am writing to express my opinions over the issue. After my deliberation, I believe that we should put the donation to the initiative of ‘basic healthcare and education in rural areas’ rather than ‘further place exploration’.
Basic healthcare gives the residents in rural areas protection for health. In rural areas, people are easy to suffer from illness. The drinking water is unclean. When they drink it, they may well suffer from cholera. What is more, their immunity will be deteriorated. Also, they lack knowledge of hygiene, which is prerequisite for people to shy away from sickness. In severe cases, people may die in consequence if they suffer from illness. Concerning that the lack of medical facilities in rural areas, we should help them by donating money to build up basic healthcare with no hesitation, lest there should be losses of human lives.
Besides, basic education helps relieve the problem of poverty in rural areas. With no basic education provided in rural areas, there is a high illiteracy rate. In subsequence, the people in rural areas have low competitiveness of finding jobs. Instead, they resort to farming. They, however, receive little income. In some areas, there are always bad weather,
devastating crops and plants cultivation. Therefore, people in those areas have to face risks of crops and plants devastation. If devastation really happens, they get zero income. In plain terms, people in rural areas have to survive with little and instable income. So, we should provide basic
education to them with a view to increasing their competitiveness of finding jobs. Not until we do so can we ameliorate their poverty problem. It is uncontested that basic healthcare and education in rural areas are so important a prerequisite that they improve the health of people and
problem of poverty. At the same time, donating for the initiative of further place exploration should be a worse choice. First, further place exploration causes unbalanced development of China. There can be two situations: exploring places in prosperous cities and exploring
places in remote areas. The first one should not be taken in consideration. Since the big cities are already wealthy enough, we should put more finance in developing remote area in order to have a balanced development around China. If we explore places in those big cities, we may well provide more
land for them to have further development, causing unbalanced development in China since the remote areas are so undeveloped. The second one would be too impulsive. Since the basic facilities in remote areas are lacked, like transportations, hospitals, residential buildings schools, etc, further
place exploration is unmeaning. We cannot further develop those areas after place exploration, nor can we polish the economical state of those areas. Therefore, further place exploration does not facilitate in the balanced development of China. Second, further place exploration is
subordinate when compared to basic healthcare and education in rural areas in term of urgency basic healthcare and education in rural areas should be a priority. It is human lives that take precedence over everything. With basic healthcare saves the lives in rural areas. Simultaneously, basic
education helps polish the impoverished situation in rural areas. We should ensure every people in our nation have equal opportunity of receiving education and endeavour to maintain a more equivalent economical development. To conclude, donating
money to the initiative of basic healthcare and education in rural areas is better than donating money to the initiative of further place exploration, in that the former help protect the health of people and help ameliorate the
problem of poverty, whereas the latter may cause unbalanced development of China and is secondary when considering the urgency. China’s development is in embryo and rapid. However, we should bear in mind that not to overlook the
livelihood of poor people. Only when China have developed equally among all the areas can she be a civilized, triumphant and prosperous nation which is beyond compare. I hope my opinions can be deeply
pondered over. Yours faithfully, Chris Wong 可以的話給個分數 (1至5**) 全文705字 用時 2 hours
