題型概述

Dr. Gupta:

This week, we'll be discussing the future of education. Let's focus now on the following viewpoint: it is no longer useful to spend many years pursuing a traditional, specialized university degree in a single field, such as communications or economics. Instead, it makes more sense for most people to complete several shorter certification programs and earn certificates in, for example, project management, computer programming, graphic design, and soon. Do you agree or disagree with this viewpoint? Why?

Andrew

I agree that completing short certification programs makes a lot of sense these days because people are more likely to change careers now than they were in the past. Certification programs allow people to quickly learn a variety of professional skills that are in demand at the moment. And acquiring such skillseads to more job opportunities.

Claire

I see the advantages of earning certificates, but I don't think that they can completely replace university degrees. Certification programs provide only superficial knowledge, while university degrees offer a well-developed and organized approach to studying. By pursuing university degrees, students gain foundational knowledge and a broader understanding of their field of study and develop many skills as well.

考生範例

From my point of view, I strongly believe that it is not reasonable to let university education be free, a viewpoint that aligns with Andrew. The primary rationale behind this stance is that this approach might lead to financial burden to the government. Since university always need a great fortune on construction, such as the renewing of facilities and the money of conducting programs. Provided that the university become free, it should definitely receive large multitudes of subsidies and funds from governments. However, governments have already spend lots of money on funding hospitals and building roads. An extra fee which is relatively high is bound to lead to a shortfall in capital from governments. However, while Kelly’s argument regarding the equity of education holds some merits, it is crucial to consider that some people might study in universities without being interested in education just because of universities’ free of charge. In light of this, this kind of behavior would be much unfairer to those people who genuinely show enthusiasm on education.

  2. 在讨论中尝试引入更多的观点和论据。

英文示例:

Title: 6 文章修订

I firmly concur with Andrew's perspective that making university education entirely free may not be a feasible solution. The primary reason for this stance is the potential financial burden on the government. Universities require substantial funding for infrastructure, facility maintenance, and program development. If higher education were to become free, the government would need to provide significant subsidies and financial support. However, governments already allocate considerable resources to healthcare, infrastructure, and other public services. Adding an additional high-cost responsibility could result in a budgetary shortfall.

While Kelly's argument about educational equity has merit, it is essential to consider the potential consequences of free university education. Some individuals might enroll in higher education without genuine interest or commitment simply because it is free of charge. This behavior would be even more unfair to those who are genuinely passionate about their education and have invested time and effort into pursuing it. Therefore, it is crucial to strike a balance between accessibility and maintaining the quality of higher education for all students. (172 words)
