大学英语六级作文 Topic 10

Topic 10. Should a formal distance be kept between students and teachers?

A good interpersonal relationship between teachers and students is vital for successful education. And what is a perfect teacher student relationship like? Should there be a formal distance between them? The question has aroused much interest. For some teachers and students should be friends and there should be little distance between them. The teacher enjoys being treated as a friend by the student. And the student likes confiding¹ in the teacher. Such a relationship is treasured especially by teenagers who are eager to grow up. However others hold that there should always be a formal distance between the teacher and the student. They argue that only when the teacher keeps a distance from the student can he make fair judgments² about all the students and avoid prejudice. In my opinion the distance between the teacher and the student can best be adjusted according to the specific situation. There is no need to regulate³ a set distance between the two.
