此次寫作題:
建議朋友選擇一種學科類型,并解釋原因:
1)選擇一種可以很快獲得學歷的學科,這樣朋友可以很快開始一份全職工作。
2)選擇一種需要很多年的學習但可以獲得更多就業(yè)機會和更好工作前景的學科。
這道題目看似屬于友誼類話題,實際是我們一直在強調(diào)的教育類學科選擇型話題。跟之前的選擇具體的學科哪個更好有所不同,如:歷史,音樂,藝術(shù),經(jīng)濟等,這道題目針對的人群是高中生和大學生,并與將來的工作前景相結(jié)合,備考時我們也有分析過相關(guān)類似的話題,所以難度不大~同學們只管大膽寫,言之有理即可。
以選擇第2種類型為例,嘗試展開分析。
觀點一:長時間的學習有利于自身知識面更廣闊,提升自我修養(yǎng),為將來職業(yè)發(fā)展奠定堅實基礎。
觀點二:從長遠來看,這種類型學科能夠挖掘更多的專業(yè)潛力和提供更好的職業(yè)發(fā)展前景。
讓步段:當然第一種類型可以盡快進入職場,積累社會經(jīng)驗,但從長遠分析,后者更有利。
First,spending a long time in a major enables people to acquire more knowledge and improve their learning ability ,which will lay a solid foundation for their future career development.
Second,in the long run, a major that requires many years of study can help people fulfill more professional potential and will provide them with better career outlook.
It is admitted that the first type of major enables students to start working as soon as possible and therefore accumulate more social experience.However,it seems that the second type brings more benefits to students.

The constant demands for more knowledge and skills bring the significance of education. Students need to be prudent while choosing a major in order to find a decent job after graduation. I will recommend to take the education program that enables students to apply a better job though costs more time to finish compared with the one with short study time but limited potential for career advancement.
Admittedly, to start working soon helps students to become financially independent or even reduce family’s economic burden. For some students, their families may have difficulties in paying the tuition fees and hence apply loans from the bank. It is meaningful for them to earn money and alleviate the financial pressure as early as possible. For instance, some people choose to take the training of computer programming which enables them to find a comparatively well-paid job in IT companies. However, there are other options to reduce economic burden, like part-time jobs and scholarship. People ought to make study or career plan with foresight.
To begin with, the long period of time invested in study enables students to grasp more knowledge and skills that are essential for them to be competitive in job market. Thanks to the fierce competition caused by population growth and education expansion, there are more candidates with excellent academic background competing in job market. Consequently, with increasing number of choices, employers gradually increase requirements in recruitment. From the perspective of students, the investment of time in academic study and self-improvement, which allow them to become candidates appreciated by potential employers, will be rewarded with a satisfied job offer. For example, students who have the perseverance to major in economics or finance which takes four years will find a job as banker or finance analyst, while those who want to begin working early and choose to study accounting for two years may just find a position as accountants. As we all know, the former job offers salaries three to five times higher than the later one does.
Secondly, it takes time for students to improve academic strength and have better understanding of their filed, which allow them to achieve long term development in career. Few people work in the same position from the very beginning to retirement, as most people expect promotion or otherwise they will be replaced by younger employees who accept lower salaries. To get promotion, one should possess stronger ability to study on their own and insight of the industry which cannot be acquired within short time. Take students majoring in marketing as an example. Not only do they need knowledge of advertising and brand building, but also they must be able to understand consumer psychology, cope with public relationship crisis, and do research on market trend. All these are necessary for them to be promoted from a common employee to manager, and even company partner. On the contrary, without years of accumulation in study, people can hardly be competent for promotion.
To sum up, a person with foresight will opt for the education program with promising career prospect and prepare for the long period of study.
新托福獨立寫作范文二:
The present-day education system allows more ways for people to improve themselves because of their varied needs and situations. Among the prevalent learning modes, some choose to follow a short process so as to join the work force more rapidly. However, I reckon a major with years of study and more career possibilities brings more benefits.
To begin with, people going through this long learning process will gain much higher salaries in job market after graduation. It is because more internship opportunities can be included and students could better combine what they learn in textbooks with practice. Furthermore, such majors usually entail extremely high standards, including much in-depth and lengthy reading, and long-time projects, all of which contribute to the value of these talents. It is not difficult to imagine that equipped with better expertise and more practical experience, they will become highly favored to employers. For example, doctors and lawyers, as is known to all, belong to typical high-paying vocations. These majors include at least four to five years of arduous courses combined with at least one or two years' internship in hospitals or law firms, especially for medical majors. Their textbooks easily exceed three to four hundred pages, full of elusiveexpressions and graphs. These graduates will cure patients and maintain social justice in the future, all of which are of vital importance to society, no wonder they deserve such decent payments.
Another benefit of the extended learning process is the potential broad human connections related to the specific major. On the one hand, the more classes they take, the more professors they will encounter, some of whom may be big names in their field. Thus these authorities themselves could bring more chances to students. On the other hand, enough time given, students could join as many academic conferences as they like to both sharpen their professional skills and make acquaintance with peers and other celebrities. All these human resources become precious assets after their graduation. For example, architecture major in China demands five years of study, including more than twenty compulsory courses. It is this large course capacity that allow students to meet with domestic renowned architects, because they are often invited to be visiting professors or some of them are even full-time professors. Some well-known national or international fairs of architecture, such as China-U.S. Expo of Architecture, are welcomed by students, since they could fully cooperate with each other and more importantly, they get a chance to speak with world-class figures like Jason Wu.
Admittedly, I am not denying the significance of a short-term major, because they quickly offer labor supplies to markets and people could rapidly convert knowledge into capital. It is true that these are important to society, but one thing which cannot be neglected is that most of the time these majors care more about mechanical skills and fast-to-grasp theoretical knowledge, which, when viewed from the other side, is more of a defect - More people could handle it, thus salaries will be much limited. Besides, getting a full-time job sooner means gaining much working experience, which could also be achieved through interns in a long major. With the above-mentioned merits, a lengthy major still wins.
Taking into accounts all these factors, we may reasonably reach the conclusion that a challenging major with more career opportunities outshines a short one with quicker access to job market because of higher salaries and better human connections.
解析
思路簡述
從題型上看是一道典型的比較類題目。選擇更好寫的第二個選項。
先提出同意的第一個原因是可以獲得更高的收入。展開說因為這樣的專業(yè)涉及難度大的課程多、實習多。例子參考醫(yī)學院和法學院學生的情況舉出。
第二個理由段指出這樣有助于拓展專業(yè)領域的人脈。展開說學生一是可以上很多的課程,就能夠接觸更多的專業(yè)方面的老師,二是學生可以參加很多學術(shù)活動,認識更多的同專業(yè)人和大牛。例子給出中國各大學法學院的學生的情況。
讓步段部分先承認學制短的專業(yè)有好處,給出具體的好處。然后從兩個方向進行反駁。
本題任選取一方充分論證即可,以下是一個參考答案:
Position: I have the preference that it is better to choose the major that requires much more time but offers better opportunities after graduation.
Reason 1: First, for the college students, it is much wiser to invest in themselves, like pursuing an advanced degree, than simply chase after money. (對于大學生來說,投資到自己身上,比單純追求錢要更加明智) As we all know, it is the best time for college students to give themselves a further study to promote the scope and depth of knowledge, since they are at the peak of their learning capacity. (由于大學生正處于學習能力的頂峰時期,所欲現(xiàn)在是最好的拓展知識面和加深只是深度的時候。)
Reason 2: Second, a decent job provides us not only the wealth benefit, but also other rewards, such as status, recognitions, and opportunities, which are the essential factors determining individual success in the future. (一份好工作不僅能給我們帶來財富,還能帶來地位,認可,機會等優(yōu)勢,而這些因素是決定我們未來成功的關(guān)鍵。)
Concession: Admittedly, getting a job earlier offers us some advantages - quick adaptation to the circumstance in workplace, and sense of safety in money. (這一段是讓步段,簡要表明早點工作的確能帶來一些優(yōu)勢,如對工作環(huán)境的適應和收入的感全感,但這些優(yōu)勢很快就可以被超越。)
