  Parents Are the Best Teachers

  We will all have many teachers in our lives. They include not only our teachers in school, but our classmates and friends, our colleagues and our bosses and, most importantly, our parents. Our parents are our first and best teachers because they teach us the most important things in life, teach us continually and always have our best interests at heart.

  First , our parents begin teaching us the moment we are born, and what they teach us in those early years are the most important things we can learn. They teach us what is important in our own culture and how to get along with other people. In addition , they teach us how to be independent and how to learn. Of course , they also teach us language and many other practical skills. Second , our parents are always teaching us whether we realize it or not. They teach both in words and by example. Finally , our parents are devoted teachers who always want the best for us. Their only motivation for teaching us is to prepare us for a good life in the future. No one wants our success more than they do.

  Throughout our lives we will learn from many people, for there is something that we can learn from everyone we meet. However , no teacher can take the place of our parents because they are our most devoted and best teachers.

父母是最好的老师

  【译文】

  父母是最好的老师

  我们一生当中会有许多老师,其中不仅包括学校的老师、同学和朋友、同事与老板,最重要的是还有父母。父母是我们最初、也是最好的老师,因为他们教给我们生活中最重要的东西。他们会不断地教导我们,而且总是非常关心我们的利益。

  首先,父母从我们出生的那一刻起就开始教导我们,而且他们在最初的那几年中所教导的都是我们必须学习的。父母告诉我们,在自己的文化中什么是重要的,以及如何与人相处。此外,他们也教导我们如何独立,以及如何学习。当然,他们也教给我们语言,以及很多其他实用的技能。其次,不管我们是否意识到,父母总是不断地对我们进行言传身教。最后,父母是最尽心尽力的老师,总是想给我们最好的。他们教导我们的唯一动机就是想帮助我们为将来的美好生活做准备。没有人比他们更希望我们成功。

  在我们的一生中,我们会向很多人学习。因为在我们所遇到的每个人身上一定都有可供学习的地方。然而,没有老师可以取代父母的地位,因为他们是我们最尽心尽力、同时也是最好的老师。
