Topic 2: Scarcity at school

Scarcity is all over the world. Even in school has scarcity, for example our school, Pacific American School. People that go to PAS trade their time for either education as a student, or earning wages as an office stuff or a teacher. They don’t have to go to PAS. They can spend their times at home and sleep. But they give up the time and come to PAS to get education as a student or wages as office staff or teacher. I am a student that goes to PAS, and I trade almost 11 hours to school to learn new knowledge that I don’t know. Teacher gives student homework, so students have to spend times to work on it. For me I spend 5~6 hours a day on my homework and test. PAS provides many resources for me to learn. I can get extra reading from school so that I can get the knowledge that is not in the book. PAS also provides me lunch so that I don’t have to go out from school and get lunch by myself. PAS should provide me more spaces. I don’t like to go to a classroom that is crowded. I think the reason why the school doesn’t spread the space out is because our school is located at the downtown of Hsinchu, and there is no enough space for schools.
