Cash For the Grade

The short article was treating the matter which was related with money can spur the students who are studying in New York.
And This is my notion about this matter

Should students get paid just to do the right thing??

When the human was originated, What was needed to form their society and culture? Were their cluture developed only by the war and expansion of territory? Nowadays, speech and knowledge are more powerful than gun and knife and it's true that country which has well developed culture is admired by many countries. So... what is needed to develop their characteristic culture? You can find the answer at the school which you are attending or already graduated. In the past, education was recognized just as the play to the rich. At that time, people in the low couldn't dream which is related with study and when they was born as a low class then they should live. And that was the custom of the period. But how about now? Look back upon my school days, almost my friends got nice education and that was thought as natural. So maybe we are neglecting education's importance. And this matter is not limited to just my experience. Maybe it is happening in educational institution all over the world. Some decades ago, there was a few educational institution so student was satisfied with just attendance. But the present students has changed. All of everything is quite natural to them. So according to this article, New York city is planning to give an impulse to students and adults by giving money. Anyway I agree with this matter. At my high school days, one of my best friends, not very smart, studied pretty much. His aim was just only one...it was a scholarship. And the reason was so simple. Unexpected poverty.... Poverty provide my friend with his moral obligations and he just pursued it desperately. And like that, he could graduate the high school peacefully with scholarship for 3 years. Even I'v studied a lot because of the scholarship. Anyway, from this example, we can guess how this plan which is prompted by New York City will have influence on the low-income brackets's student. Naturally, this is just my opinion, no one have tried this plan in New York City before. If we run into a blind alley then we can return . There is no one who will get loss. somehow student will receive the money. In any case, I think Students who are studying very hard will study hard continuously without any thought about the money.So if we focus our attention on the students who want to get benefit, then maybe we will get positive outcome.

Try to put more meaningful content of your own in your posts. Avoid posting only one or two sentences. And comment more on the articles that you post. I like your pictures... keep that up. Humans tend to be visual people, and that keeps our interest.
