All Girls Deserve Education Beyond Primary
By MALALA YOUSAFZAI March 9, 2015
IDEAS: Malala Yousafzai is an education activist from Pakistan.
1、Who inspires you? Over the past year I’ve been honored to travel and meet some exceptional girls. These young women won’t let anything stand in the way of their education. They inspire me.
2、Amina is one such girl. I met Amina last summer when I traveled to Nigeria. Her home in northern Nigeria is a place where education is under attack by Boko Haram. Despite the always present threat of violence and the fact that girls hardly ever attend secondary school, Amina persisted — she stood up for her right to an education. I know firsthand that the act of simply showing up at school is dangerous. It takes courage.
3、But for Amina, showing up was just the start. She excelled, and after graduation she received a scholarship from the Centre for Girls’ Education and serves as a mentor to other girls. I was so inspired that the Malala Fund now supports the Centre.
4、Meeting Amina and girls like her in refugee camps in Jordan, together with my own experience in Pakistan, has all taught me an important lesson: While basic education begins to unlock potential, it is secondary education that provides the wings that allow girls to fly. Secondary education helps turn a brave, bright girl like Amina into a confident and strong leader who can change her community and country.
5、Every girl should count. Yet in most countries, including Pakistan, these girls aren’t even counted: the number of students in secondary school is not measured and recorded. The latest figures from UNESCO show that tens of millions of girls are still being left behind — but that is only the beginning of the story.
6、For many of my sisters, a full course of education is a distant dream. Leaders have one standard for their own children but another standard for their citizens. As parents, they would never be happy with only a basic five or six years of school for their children. Twelve years of school should be every young person’s right. It is time for change.
Aiming high on the poverty goals
7、When I was only 3 years old, world leaders agreed to a historic 15-year plan to tackle poverty — the Millennium Development Goals. The MDGs have had a positive impact on many issues including education. However, leaders thought a basic education was enough. They were bound by prejudice and a failure of imagination and leadership.
8、This year, governments have a chance to set the record straight. They are going to decide on a new set of antipoverty goals: the Sustainable Development Goals. This is our chance to make things right. But we must aim high and be ambitious.
9、Governments are now considering expanding the global education goals beyond primary school. This is very good news. But this will only happen if we make girls’ education one of their top priorities.
10、It is possible. Rich nations and many poor countries have managed to provide tuition-free secondary school. This is why we are calling on world leaders to do what is right as they decide on the next set of education goals. Now, there is talk of raising the goal to only nine years of schooling instead of establishing 12 years of free education for all children. This is wrong.
11、How can world leaders tell the world’s children that they can only hope for nine years of education, while their own children can expect at least 12 years of education in the best schools? The standards they set for their own children should be the same for their citizens and the rest of the world’s youth.
12、When world leaders meet this September at the U.N. in New York City, they must promise that by 2030, all children will be able to participate in at least 12 years of quality education for free. We need to lift up the girls who are missing out the most.
13、We know that investments in education pay off. Who knows how much brilliance the world was deprived of by millions of girls missing out on secondary education. Perhaps there was a transformative leader in that generation, an inspiring writer, a scientist who might solve the world’s most pressing problems. When I think of the unrealized potential, my sorrow knows no bounds.
14、“My joy knows no bounds.” That was Amina’s response to the news that I, along with another education advocate, Kailash Satyarthi, was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace last year. I took Amina and four other girls who inspire me to Oslo to accept that prize. Those are girls who, despite all the obstacles, show up. We are desperate to learn and to lead. All we need is leaders with courage and bold vision to match. All we need is for them to show up too.
15、Some may think Amina and I are just naive teenagers. But we know firsthand the power of a secondary education, and we won’t be deterred. When we imagine the power of all our sisters standing together on the shoulders of a quality education — our joy knows no bounds.

總的來說，這篇文章整體風(fēng)格不難，文章易讀，生詞不多，結(jié)構(gòu)清楚，均為常規(guī)寫作考點，寫起來比較簡單。
寫作策略參考：
①anecdote段落對應(yīng)（1-4）
可寫角度
●用個人經(jīng)歷作開頭，能夠很好的將讀者帶入到所探討的議題，為后續(xù)的推理和感情革染奠定基礎(chǔ)
●從這個故事中，無論是作者本人還是讀者都毫無例外受到Amina的鼓舞（可引用L3-5），也同時警示人們在當(dāng)代社會，還有很多女孩子沒有接受中學(xué)教育的權(quán)力
推理
可寫角度
對比
●對比1（P4vs.P5）
P4：中學(xué)教育的重要性解析（和小學(xué)教育對比）（可引用L3-4）
P5：聯(lián)合國教科文組織的數(shù)據(jù)，現(xiàn)在還有數(shù)以千萬計的學(xué)生沒有享受中學(xué)教育
通過重要性和數(shù)據(jù)的對比，第一讓讀者意識到問題的嚴(yán)重性，第二讓讀者有了產(chǎn)生改變此現(xiàn)狀的想法
●對比度2（P7vs.P8）
P7：MDG因為領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的偏見和能力不足（L3-4），導(dǎo)致項目沒有達(dá)到預(yù)期，很好的發(fā)揮作用
P8：現(xiàn)在又開始推行SGDs，讓讀者意識到我們可以解決教育問題的機(jī)會來了
通過之前和現(xiàn)在項目的對比，讓讀者意識到我們是有機(jī)會有平臺解決以上提及的棘手問題，并讓讀者對改變現(xiàn)狀的前景有希望，有信心
吸引情緒：
●對比度2（P6和P11）
P6：領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者（可引用全程中學(xué)教育）與公民（只有5-6歲的學(xué)校教育或甚至剝奪接受教育的機(jī)會）
P11：修辭問題：質(zhì)問權(quán)貴階級處理事務(wù)的兩面性，揭露權(quán)貴階級做法的荒誕和自私
首先通過對比，展示權(quán)貴階級在教育問題上的愚民手段，讓讀者感受到這樣的教育資源的配置是非常不合理的，然后在11段又通過反問，將這種質(zhì)問直接推向讀者，更大程度的揭露了教育不公的本質(zhì)，進(jìn)而調(diào)動起讀者的情感，從而更好的讓讀者加入到改變現(xiàn)狀的隊伍中來
●對Pathos的呼吁
P6：是時候改變了
P8：這是我們把事情做對的機(jī)會......雄心勃勃
P14：號召全體姐妹團(tuán)結(jié)起來，為教育公正做努力
通過這樣的話語，讓讀者不僅僅意識到教育不公的普遍性和嚴(yán)重性，也同時讓讀者意識到我們不可以坐以待斃，接受不公，我們應(yīng)該團(tuán)結(jié)起來，為世界變得更好，付諸于自己的行動。
好了，以上就是今天的亞太考題作文部分回顧，整體來說本次亞太考題難度不大，并且采用全新試題，相對公平，可以讓很多沒有參加8月北美考試的同學(xué)內(nèi)心稍微平衡一下了，需要了解其他部分真題解析的同學(xué)可以關(guān)注牛學(xué)教育SAT頻道，祝大家都能獲得理想的目標(biāo)分?jǐn)?shù)。
