There is an argument (争论) going on in many schools. It is about what language or languages are spoken
in the classroom.
Some people argue that because this is America, only English should be spoken in schools. Others argue that
America is a melting pot (多元文化的移民国家). And if students are able to speak more than? one language,
that should be accepted and celebrated in classrooms.
We asked students in New York City what*they thought. Here's what they said.
Should English be the only language spoken in
American classrooms? YES
Pedro Rodriguez: Even though you may want to speak your native language (本族语) ，you should learn and speak only English in school. It's very important. It's the most popular language in the world. If you live here, you should speak it.
Gisell Mata: How can people expect to communicate in this country if they can't speak English? School is the best place to start. I think if you speak and write only ' English in school, you will learn it quicker and be able to speak it very well in a short time.
Chemway Corley: I think all kids should speak only English in school. If you are living in the U. S. , you must know English. It is the main language of the country. I think students should have to learn the language even if they take ten periods a week learning it. NO
Xiomarah Veras: I think people should learn English in school, but they shouldn't be required to speak only English. It should be up to students and teachers what they speak and learn. For people just learning English, it can be easier if they're allowed to speak their native language in class too.
Patricia Morel: People shouldn't be forced to speak a language that they don't want to speak. It is up to you to decide what is best for you in school or at home. Nobody should be forced to do anything she's not ready to do.
Yessenia Ortiz: I think if English is introduced to people slowly, they will want to speak it more. If they are
in this country, they will want to learn English. But if you tell them it is the only language they can speak in school, it will make them angry.

Daddy just didn’t know how show love. It was Mom who held the family together .
Once when I stole a candy of a shop , he made me take it back .But it was Mom who understood I was just a kid .
I broke my leg one day on the playground and it was Mom who held me in her arms all the way to the hospital .
Dad pulled the car right up to the door of the emergency room (急诊室).
At my birthday parties, Dad seemed to be busy blowing up balloons, setting up tables and taking some photos
all the time. It was Mom who bought the cake with the candles on it for me to blow out .
I remember when Mom told him to teach me how to ride a bicycle. I told him not to let go, but he said it was time.
I fell and Mom ran to pick me up, but he waved her off. I was so mad I showed him. I got right back on that bike
and rode it myself. He didn’t even feel embarrassed. Just smiled.
When I went to college, Mom did all the writing. He just sent bills and a little note about how great his lawn
(草坪) looked now but I wasn’t playing football on it . Whenever I called home, he acted like he wanted to talk,
but he always said, “I’ll get your mother.”
