6 A nation should require all of its students to study the same national curriculum until they enter college.


There has been a quarrel for several decades that should a nation require all of its students to study the same national curriculum until they enter college.Different educators hold different viewpoints, and they all have perfect examples or reasons to buoy their own preference.However, this is still a thing worth elaborately scrutiny before we finally reach our conclusion.
One thing we have to take into account is that a nation is expected to guarantee the equality of education, especially in the period of basic education.To achieve this purpose, a simple and feasible method is to require all the students to take the same national curriculum.Although we cannot thoroughly rule out facts that richer people receive better cultivation from cradle to grave, a passive nation who never tries it best to offer at least the equal basic courses to all the students is inevitably to be blamed.Yet, as democratic country, the nation ought to obey its citizens’ choices, rather than require them to obey certain regulations, which betray our paramount principle, so it would be better to conduct democratic vote before its requirement.
However, as the old and renowned pedagogue said, the best education is training different people in different ways, according to one’s own characteristics.For instance, some people are naturally prefer art to science, so it might court his aversion if his teacher always requires him to calculate and do some experiments, and finally lose interest of study.In practice, today’s education in the western countries reflects this appropriately that mainly primary schools and middle schools take small class teaching to meet identical needs of students.Of course, some curriculums are principal and indispensable, like elementary math, general knowledge of first aid, and so forth, which even the most heterogeneous instruction cannot avoid.
So, in the view of curriculums, the uniformed courses both satisfy the need of fundamental ones, and benefit a lot in the evaluation of qualities of students and teachers.That is, the same course and same examinations make it convenient to coarse estimate a student’s capability of study or how industrious he or she is.Similarly, it could also be used to assess the teaching quality of teachers, and even a school or a region.Besides, this would spare educational resources, relieve some burden of teachers.Regretfully, I have to point out these advantages are just apparent, for even the same course taught by different people actually varies, and how can we make evaluation of students and teachers only according to scores.Besides, what a nation’s responsibility is to emphasize the equal rights of receiving education, rather than to regulate specific issues about curriculum.
All in all, it is out of a nation’s responsibilities to require all the students to study the same national curriculum until they enter college.We are not denying that uniformed basic courses are not essential, but calling for a more feasible project to ensure the equal rights of people to receive equal quality education.

作者没有论述为什么在大学之前接受一样的或者不一样的基础教育；
接受一样或者不一样的教育似乎并没有涉及到equal rights;

因为作者第一段没有明确表达观点，最后一段似乎也很模糊。很难让读者很清楚地看到作者的观点和意图。
