应该学习艺术

1.助于学习

a.扩大知识面：年轻人学习绘画、音乐、摄影可以接触到以前没有接触的领域，扩大了自己的知识领域

b.激发探究未知世界的兴趣：学生在学校中只知道考试，接触了艺术后会对别的领域好奇

2.利于个人发展

a.缓解压力：数理化是困难且乏味的，而艺术可以放松，可以陶冶情操

b.结交更多朋友：通过参加艺术社团，可以帮助学生结实更多有共同兴趣爱好的人

2014年3月22日托福独立写作范文一

The importance of standardized testing in today’s society has caused us to place an undue emphasis on the core subjects of math, language, science, and history. Arts education often falls by the wayside. But exploring art and music are just as important for a child’s development as studying the main subjects.

For one thing, studying art and music encourages creative thinking. The key is in balancing structured learning with unstructured periods of exploration. Students can be taught certain skills that allow them to express themselves more clearly, and then be given free rein to express whatever they want. Unconventional associations can be encouraged so that students are able to come up with novel and interesting ideas. These sort of activities will accustom students to flexible and inventive ways of thinking, so that when they eventually begin working in the real world, they can make unique contributions to society.

For another thing, arts education aids in healthy emotional development. Art and music provide non-threatening means for children to express their thoughts and feelings. For this reason, researchers are currently experimenting with art and music for therapeutic purposes. Initial studies show that art therapy is hugely effective for addressing emotional issues. I know that at least in my own life, art has helped me greatly. When I was younger, I was skinny and weak. This made me a prime target for bullying. But when I drew, I drew myself as a superhero, and this process of reimagining myself gave me the strength to endure the bullying and eventually stand up for myself.
