参考范文

From the above picture, we can see a balance; the left side stands for schools in remote mountainous areas and the right side refers to the ones in cities. The lever of the balance represents strategies of equal access to education. 1 How can we ensure an equal access to education? Obviously, it is the strategies of education fairness that can bridge the gaps between schools of mountainous and urban areas. 2

Equal access to education boosts social harmony and development in the course of constructing a harmonious society. Besides, equal access to education is a target of our country’s education policies, which aims at ensuring equal opportunities for all to receive education of equal quality. 3

But in reality, there exist differences in the building, the school environment and the faculty between schools of mountainous and urban areas. Education equality problem comes to be sharp and the gap of the education is still big. 4 How can we bridge the gaps between schools of mountainous and urban areas? In my opinion, our governments at various levels should spare no efforts to increase the capital investment in schools of remote rural areas, and construct the teacher training platforms. These are all powerful and effective measures of realizing the fairness in education. 5

从上图我们可以看到一个天平，天平的左边是山区边远学校，天平的右边是城区学校，中间的杠杆是发挥着平衡作用的教育公平战略。如何确保教育公平？显然，教育公平战略可缩小山区和城区学校存在的差距。

公平教育在构建和谐社会的过程中可增加社会和谐度，加快社会的发展。此外，国家教育政策的一个目标就是教育公平，旨在确保所有人都有机会享有同等质量的教育。

但事实上，山区学校和城区学校在校舍、校园环境以及师资力量上存在差异。教育公平问题突显，教育之间的差距还很大。如何填补山区和城区学校存在的差距呢？在我看来，各级政府应该不遗余力地增加对偏远地区学校的资金投入，构建教师培训平台。这些都是实现公平教育强有力的措施。
