Question

請參考下面一段材料，寫一篇英語短文。

改革開放以來，農民大量涌入城市，越來越多的兒童遠離父母，據初步統計，2004年

中國“留守兒童”已達兩千二百萬。

據《湖南農村留守兒童調查報告》顯示，“缺失父母”對農村留守兒童的成長帶來巨大困惑，從而導致其情感孤寂、道德教化缺失、學習積極性不高、心理不健全以及人身安全度不高等問題。例如，2005年夏天，湖南漣源縣左灣村突發山洪災難，該村十二名死亡少年中就有十一名是留守兒童。調查結論昭示我們：必須高度關注兩千萬農村“留守兒童”。

注意：1、詞數l20—l50。文章的開頭已為你寫好，不計入總詞數

2、不要逐句翻譯材料，內容可適當發揮，行文要連貫。

 3、參考詞匯：缺失父母absentee parents

One possible version：

Don’t leave kids behind

According to incomplete statistics ,there are more than 22 million of rural children throughout the country, who was left at home with relatives while their parents work in urban areas．

Parental care is vital to ensure a child’s healthy development．Children who do not stay with

their parents tend to develop unhealthy tendencies both in their behavior and personality．

A recent survey of these children made in Hunan Province has found that students with absentee parents usually perform badly in their studies．Most of them have psychological problems．

The survey also found that these children are also badly hurt by a feeling that they are different from children whose parents remain at home．It is quite easy for them to feel lonely and unhappy．They have difficulty communicating with others and cannot acquire the abilities they should have obtained at their age．When a serious flood hit a village in Hunan last year,11 of the l2 children killed were from such families．

Something must be done to help the children left behind in rural areas．
