As we can see in the picture, a school built for migrant workers’ children is much shabbier and poorly furnished compared with a key public school. The two schools are geographically close to each other, which makes for a sharp contrast.

There are several reasons for this phenomenon of the picture. Firstly, urban public schools always ask for sponsor fee amounting to thousands of RMB for the enrollment of a migrant student, which is quite beyond the latter’s financial capacity. Secondly, migrants find difficulty in integrating with city life culturally and emotionally. They fear that local students would look down upon and bully their children. So they prefer poor schools exclusively for the migrants’ children. However, the teaching conditions in migrant schools are really dissatisfactory, as there is usually no classroom for music, painting and computer, not to mention library or laboratory.

Since migrant workers are contributing vastly to the social and economic development of cities, they should be rewarded with deserved rights including impartial education opportunities for their children. Therefore, it is an urgent task to build up an integrated educational system for migrant children. As children are the future of our nation, creating a good environment for their upbringing means creating a bright and promising future for our nation.
　　
正如图中所示，一所专门为外来子弟所建的学校相比某重点中学显得十分破旧矮小。这两所学校在地理上非常相近，正好形成了鲜明的反差。

图中现象的产生有以下几点原因。第一，城里的公立学校每招收一个民工子弟就要收取几千块钱的赞助费，这远远超出了后者的财力。第二，民工发现在文化上和情感上很难融入城市社会。他们害怕自己的孩子会被城里的孩子看不起、受欺负。所以他们宁可把孩子送到只招收民工子弟的穷学校。但是，这些民工学校的教学条件十分差，没有音乐教室、图画教室和计算机教室，更不用说图书馆和实验室了。

民工们为城市的社会和经济发展做出了巨大的贡献，因此他们应该得到应得的权利，包括他们的孩子接受平等教育的机会。因此，为民工子弟建立一个统一的教育制度是一项非常紧急的任务。孩子是一个国家的未来，为他们的成长创造一个良好的环境意味着我们国家将有一个美好和充满希望的未来。
