Task:
Some people believe that the country would benefit a lot from more young people entering into university; however, others think that the large number of people receiving college education only leads to graduate unemployment. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
一些人认为,有很高比例的年轻人能上大学让国家收益巨大,而另一些人认为,这样只会导致毕业即失业。讨论两种观点并给出你的观点。
解析:
本题问的话题很有趣,也是近些年来中国的热门话题,看来,大学生是多招一点,还是少招一点,这个不只是中国的难题,世界范围内都有争议的。老雅最近查阅了一份资料,是关于中国1977年恢复高考制度以来,每年的录取比例,真的是不看不知道,一看吓一跳。为什么呢?先看数据:
1977年,也就是伟大的邓爷爷决定恢复高考那年,全国录取率才5%,也就是100个人参加考试,才录取5个,要考前5名才有戏!想一想,那要什么样的学霸才能上大学!难怪当年的大学生被称为“天之骄子”。家里出个大学生,那不仅是自己家庭的荣耀,连亲戚朋友都跟着沾光!即使在1987年,录取率也才堪堪27%(大约4个人录取1个),那时的老师天天对我们说些什么“千军万马过独木桥,不努力就给挤下万丈深渊”,说得我们心颤颤的。现在的高考生早已体会不到我们那时的紧张气氛了。重庆市第八中学(一所好学校)对面是我们当年猴急猴急想上的重庆大学,据说,那所中学的老师现在这样告诉他们的学生:“你们不努力,未来就只能去对面那所大学了!”这话说的,给老雅的感觉真的是“变天啦!”
那么,越来越多的年轻人上大学,对于一个国家来说是好还是坏呢?自然是有好有坏了。好处是大家的素质都提高了;好处是大家都有学上,于是乎高中的竞争压力没那么大了(压力小了有什么好处呢?无非是大家都可以跟随自己的爱好来读书,而不是单纯为了考试。遗憾的是,这一点好处,中国家长不认啦!),等等。那么,坏处是什么呢?好像最重要的一条就是,大家都拿着大学文凭,结果是工作不好找了,因为竞争压力大了。那么,自己怎样判断到底该不该让更多人上大学?我觉得肯定是支持,理由是工作竞争压力可以通过制造工作机会来解决,大学生增多并不是找工作难的直接原因。
Sample answer:
Nowadays, the general trend seems to be that more and more young people go to college and receive higher education. In china alone, for example, about 7 million out of 9.4 million high school students were accepted by universities in 2014, while only 35 years ago, only 5% high school students went to college. This rapid increase of the number of university students, though supported by almost all governments throughout the world, has given rise to doubts among some people who insist that there is close interrelationship between the large number of university graduates and the high unemployment rate.
Obviously, as more people have access to university education, the entire country will benefit from it. For one thing, the country will be equipped with a workforce of higher quality. The specialized training these people receive at universities can help people in the country in many ways. With better doctors, people can enjoy longer lives; with more professional architects, people can live more comfortably and safely; with more skilled horticulturists, people can live in a more beautiful environment. Additionally, if universities are open to more high school students, they will face less intense academic pressure. As a result, these students can enjoy more freedom to learn things that really interest them and so they can learn them better as interest is always the best teacher.
There are many people, however, who would link the rise of unemployment rate to the increased number of university graduates. In their viewpoint, as more and more young graduates pour into the job market, to get a job has become increasingly difficult. For example, here in China, a teaching position was rather easy to obtain 20 years ago, but now the position is open only to those with a M.A., or even Ph.D. degree.
To my mind, it is certainly a good thing to have more people receive university education since this can upgrade the overall quality of the workforce in a country. Meanwhile, more university graduates do not naturally lead to more people losing their job. More university graduates will indeed make the competition for well-paid jobs more intense, yet they do not reduce the number of available jobs. This means some university graduates will have to do the jobs originally held by less educated people. This is not bad, since all jobs, well-paid or not so well-paid, will be done by people more qualified for them.
