【寫作立場】

盡管我不想否認競爭對于一個孩子成長的重要意義，我認為培養(yǎng)孩子的合作精神和競爭意識對于他們的學術(shù)追求、事業(yè)發(fā)展、幸福人生會產(chǎn)生更加積極的影響。

【思路拓展】

v 為何合作對于孩子們的成長更加重要：

① 無論是在學術(shù)追求還是攀登事業(yè)階梯中，教育的理念應該是所有的孩子們都應該被鼓勵去學習競爭、出類拔萃。競爭是開發(fā)一個人無限潛能，增進一個人自信的強大的驅(qū)動力。例如，很多孩子正是通過文體活動的競爭，培養(yǎng)了自己獨有的才華，擁有了未來的美麗人生。

② 在一個人的成長中，競爭無所不在，壓力也無處不存。 一個人要想有所作為，就要適應競爭，在逆境中成長，在人生無數(shù)次的競爭中學習“適者生存”。

v 為何競爭對于孩子們的成長更加重要：

① 個人的才華和能力有限，無論在學術(shù)追求還是事業(yè)發(fā)展中，沒有完美的個人，只有完美的團隊。孩子們只有從小學習合作，才能借勢用力，做事事半功倍。例如，很多國家要求學生們完成小組作業(yè)，是為培養(yǎng)孩子們的在團隊中奉獻、分享、讓步、團結(jié)，這些優(yōu)秀的品質(zhì)，會在未來對于他們的事業(yè)和生活產(chǎn)生積極的影響。

② 合作是幫助孩子們拓寬交友圈的重要方式之一，一個不習慣于合作的孩子，通常會孤獨、自閉、在社交方面力不從心。相反，一個愿意分享和合作的孩子，性格方面，往往更有胸懷，積極樂觀。
