2、should it aim at cultivating the students overall abilities? 雅思（写作）模拟试卷 88答案与解析 1 【正确答案】 College is a place where students can gain more new knowledge and experience. Of course, different people have different reasons for attending college: some may want to further their study in college; some hope
3、to find a good job while some others wish to exchange their present situation through studying in college. In my opinion, college study can be best defined as a preparation for ones future life. Firstly, students can gain new knowledge and experience from studying in college. Teachers and professors
4、 in college who possess not only abundant professional knowledge but also plentiful of teaching experience will supply students with new knowledge and direct them to solve problems in reality. With their help, students can be equipped with knowledge in a specific area, which will pave the road for t
5、heir future career. Secondly, students can learn how to arrange time efficiently. Before studying in college, their life may often be arranged by their parents, and their study by teachers. It is very different for them to live and study in college, because they will have to arrange their life and s
6、tudy by themselves. They have to decide things such as when to get up, when to play, and when to finish their assignment, etc. This experience is of great importance for their work and life in the future. Thirdly, studying in college gives students an opportunity to live with others and learn to coo

8、r and understand other people. It is a preparation for students to cooperate with others in society. All in all, students can not only gain lots of new knowledge but also accumulate much more experience, such as how to arrange time and how to cooperate with other people. Therefore, college study ser
9、ves as an important preparation for their future work and life. 2 【正确答案】 What should be the purpose of college education? No doubt, different people, or even different universities, may see it quite differently. As to me, I tend to support the view that it should aim at cultivating the students over
10、all abilities. First of all, social progress needs overall developed college graduates in the long run. When we ask ourselves the question: “What kind of college graduates does the society need?“ The answer is just too obvious: ones with a good command of the knowledge in their own fields of study,
11、ones with a healthy body, ones with a healthy mentality, ones with good communication skills, ones with teamwork spirit, ones with creative, innovative ability or the ability for implementation. What are all these things? Again, the answer is just simple:overall abilities. Second, an overall develop
12、ed graduate would find a job more easily. You can ask an employer of a certain enterprise: What type of employees do you wish to employ? If this question is a little unclear, we can make it more specific by letting him make a choice: A. an overall developed college graduate; B. a non-overall develop
13、ed college graduate. Sup-posing every other things remain equal, we have sound reasons to believe that he will defi-nitely select A. Admittedly, it is praiseworthy of universities to be concerned about their graduates job-hunting issues, for anyone should first solve the problem of making a living b
14、efore talking about later on development. Besides, it is also the shared aspiration of all college graduates to have a well-paid job that they like and that points to a good prospect in the future. However, no one would ever deny the fact that to cultivate the overall abilities of the students is always closely related to and in no way conflicts or contradicts against good job opportunities. From the foregoing discussion, we can come to the conclusion that the purpose of college education should always target at cultivating the overall abilities of the students.
