專四題目:
It is widely accepted that to be admitted by a prestigious university is crucial for one's future career. However, others also argue that it is better to choose one's favourite major in an ordinary university if he cannot be offered the same one by a famous university. What is more important to you-famous universit3ror major?
專四范文:
Favourite Major Outweighs a Prestigious University
心儀的專業比名校更重要。
If one cannot study one's favourite major in a prestigious university, is it better to opt for a second-best university in which one can choose one's preferred major? In my opinion, it is more important to study what one likes rather than being enrolled in a famous university at the expense of one's interest.
如果學生在名校沒有學習他鐘愛的專業,那么還不如去上一所中等水平的大學,在那里,學生可以選擇自己喜歡的專業。我認為,選擇自己喜歡的專業更為重要,而不是為了放棄自己的興趣,而進入名牌大學。
Admittedly, a prestigious university yields several advantages when it comes to job hunting, However, the name of the university is not the clincher in determining one's future career. Perseverance and determination contribute greatly to one's success. And what underlies these two things is an intrinsic penchant for what one studies. On the other hand, if one chooses a major one detests merely for the sake of the prestige of the university, it is tantamount to digging a grave for oneself. Just imagine how much enjoyment in life will be taken away from toiling over fields one is least interested in. Last but not least, it is often said that one can only achieve something substantial in a certain area by applying oneself to it. Otherwise, one inevitably feels being trapped in a dead end since one's talents have been suppressed.
不可否認的是,名牌大學在找工作上有許多的優勢,但是,名牌大學并不是決定學生未來職業的決定性因素。毅力和決心是學生成功的關鍵。然而決定上述兩項的關鍵就是學生的興趣愛好。另一方面,如果學生選擇了一個自己不喜歡的專業,而只是為了進入名牌大學,那相當于為自己設下障礙。想象一下,選擇了一個自己不喜歡的專業,你將損失多少快樂啊。最后,人們經常說,只有全身投入,人們才能在某一領域嶄露頭角。否則,他將不可避免地感覺自己深陷死胡同,因為,他的天賦得到了限制。
In view of these points, I believe that the choice is clear-a favourite major outweighs a prestigious university.
根據以上幾點,我相信選擇自己心儀的專業比名牌大學更重要。
