Today I read the news “Teacher killed, two wounded in Nevada middle
school shooting” on China Daily.
According to the law enforcement officials, a teacher was shot dead
and two students were wounded when a student opened fire at a middle school in
the northern Nevada city of Sparks on Monday before taking his own life. We
also know that a kid started getting mad and he pulled
out a gun and shoots one of the students at least, and then he walked up to a
teacher and says back up, the teacher started backing up and he pulled the
trigger, by a seventh-grade student
identified as Andrew told local KOLO-TV.
We often hear some similar incident like this from the newspaper and
TV. In recent years, there are always several accidents happening in the school
around the world every week. In China, many campus cases would happen every
year. We can't help wanting to ask, how our schools are, and how our education is.
Of course, there is diffidence on China and America about controlling gun. Therefore,
it is the shooting affair what is happening in America, while it is the stab wound
affair what is happening in China.
School is a sacred place, where is the nation's hope. It should not
be influenced by the society’s dirty side. However, at present, there have been
many criminal cases in school, and showing a growing trend. Criminal case in
school has showed a trend from the university to the primary school. Just take the
schools around me as an example, several students of accidental deaths would happen
each year in China University of Geoscience and Huazhong University of Science
and Technology. After an accident, the school will find ways to hide it up,
rather than handled it properly.
In my opinion, we should take measures to prevent school from
affair. The government must monitor the school strongly. And the school must
correct the behavior of hiding truth after school accident. What our schools
should do are strengthening management of safety
and strengthening the education.
