專四題目：
It has been said that "Not everything that is learned is contained in books." Some people think that experience teaches more than books. In your opinion, which is more important-experience or books?
專四范文：
The Importance of Experience
經驗的重要性。
Should experience be credited with more importance than books as some people claim? Or do books still play a pivotal role in the learning process? Given my personal experience, I agree with the former.
許多人說經驗比書本知識更重要，真是這樣嗎？書本是否在學習階段扮演著重要的角色呢？我認為，我同意前者的觀點。無可否認，學生能夠從書本上學習到所有必須的原理。書籍應該含有某一領域的精髓，書籍非常重要，原因在于所有的教學機構都會利用書籍來傳播知識。但是，人們也不應該輕視實踐的重要性。在許多情況下，經驗比書籍還要重要，然而，這樣的趨勢正在不斷增長。雇主希望未來的雇員擁有大量的工作經驗，這樣，他們就不用從頭學起。此外，有大量知識是不能夠僅僅通過書本來獲取的，任何教育的根本目標都是傳授知識，并培養學生把知識運用到真實情況的能力。學習書本的理論知識就相當于沒有掌握，情況是，如果學生不能夠運用知識來解決工作中的問題。最后，不可避免的是，在傳播知識上，書籍是至關重要的載體；但是，經驗也非常重要。
Admittedly, students can learn all the necessary principles or theorems through textbooks. And a high-quality book should contain the essence of a certain subject, The importance of books is corroborated by the fact that almost all learning institutions employ textbooks to disseminate knowledge. Nonetheless, one should not belittle the significance of hands-on experience. In some circumstances, experience may count more than books and this trend is gradually gaining ascendancy. It makes sense that employers expect their prospective staff a to acquire some experience so that they do not have to learn from scratch. In addition, it is true to assert that there are a myriad of things which cannot be learned simply by reading a book, The underpinning goal of any education is to impart knowledge and to cultivate the ability to apply the knowledge to a real-life situation. Principles learned from books amount to almost nothing if students cannot use them to solve problems they encounter in their jobs. Finally, it is undeniable that books are a useful device in terms of conveying knowledge; however, the importance of experience should not be underrated either.

On balance, I believe that books and experience actually complement each other: knowledge learn.ed throughbooks will be effectively reinforced by the accumulation of experience.
我認為書籍和經驗互為補充；通過書本學習到的知識應該通過實踐來給予鞏固。
