Answer 1

One possible version:

Should Science and Arts Education Be Separated?

The issue of separating science and arts education is getting heated up as debate spreads across the country, which attracts tens of thousands of votes.

About 50% of the people interviewed think it unwise to get arts and science separated in high school. In their opinion, a real expert needs a wide range of knowledge. With the development of modern society, multi-skilled people are in great demand. However, another 43% of them insist that they should be separated so that students can concentrate on some subjects and become experts. Besides, they will not be overburdened as before.  

As far as I’m concerned, a comprehensive education is better than a separated one. A strong ability in both science and arts is helpful for the long-term development of individuals and the society as a whole. Worldwide, only in China science and arts are separated, which has had a bad effect on students’ sound development. It's high time we changed this model.
