题目内容:
No one likes the idea of being watched but, in today's high-tech society, a video camera can keep its eye on you 24 hours a day. This is now even the case in schools, and the students are not particularly happy about it.
“Luckily for me, the video cameras in our school are only installed along the corridors(走廊),” said Zhu Jiangyue, a Senior 2 student in Beijing. “It would feel like you're always being stared at if there were a camera in the classroom. You would have no privacy.”
Two students in Shanghai learned this the hard way when their high school broadcast video pictures of them kissing on campus. They must have been annoyed by this and responded by filing lawsuit against the school for invasion of privacy and last month a local court agreed to hear it. It is the first case of its kind in China, and everyone has something to say about it.
Li Xiang, a Senior 3 student in Hunan Province, thinks the schools behavior was unacceptable and unreasonable. "If I were one of the victims, I would be as angry as they are," said the 18-year-old. Every classroom in Li's school has a video camera above the door. They are generally used only when an exam is taking place but sometimes a student is allowed to control the camera. In this way, students needn’t worry about being watched in most part of their school life and can enjoy the benefits cameras bring as long as it doesn’t damage their self-respect.
However, Peng Jianping, chairman of the Moral Education Research Centre in Guangzhou, thinks video monitoring causes more harm than good. “Schools hope to manage the students better with the help of video cameras,” he said. “But it won't actually work. Teachers and students should trust and respect each other. If video cameras are frequently used, teenagers will think their teachers don't believe them.”
