1108,09AW 同主题写作第1期 ISSUE3 by beyondzk

最近刚开始练习，这是写的第二篇，望不吝赐教。
写的比较慢，构思到完成花了近50分钟
As the society is going more competitive, more and more people pay much attention to education. So a problem comes into people's consideration. How should education institutions play a role in education. Some people hold the belief that education institutions have a responsibility to dissuade students from pursuing fields of study in which they are unlikely to succeed. There may be an element of truth in this statement, but I have a different opinion.

First of all, how can education institutions determine a student is not likely to succeed in a certain field. For an instance, many high schools now offer liberal arts and science for their students to select from. So some people may argue that institutions can give advises to students according to their current performance in their courses. If they currently don't perform well in a certain direction, they are not likely to succeed in the certain field in the long run. In my opinion, this argument may be too arbitrary. In an early age, some students may not perform well in a certain field because they did not put much strength in their study or they can’t get adapt to new things as fast as required. However, this does not indicate that they don't have the potential and hope to succeed in the field lately. The famous artist, Vinci, serves as a good example. When he was young, he was told to draw eggs. So hard as he tried, he can't draw an egg as good as his fellows. But he didn’t give up and through his great endeavor, he eventually became one of the greatest artists in the world. So, if education institutions suggested Vinci to give up painting, we may not be able to enjoy so many good paints by Vinci today.

Another example, when I was in my first year in college, I faced the situation to choose my major. As I did not perform well in computer programming, I was suggested by my mentor not to choose computer science. But I knew that I did not do well in programming because it was new to me and I hadn't found the right way. From the bottom of my heart, I knew I love computer science. So I consisted in choosing it as my major. Now, with much practice, I perform well in programming and most of all, I am very happy and motivated. And I believe that I have a good chance to succeed in this field.

So, as far as I am concerned, it is not advisable for education institutions to give students advises like that. Instead, institutions should provide students with flexible environment, where students are able to try different fields as they like, thus enabling them to find the fields they are really interested in. Only in this way can education institutions provide students a good chance to succeed.

As the society growing more competitive, people pay much attention to enhance their abilities. Of course, taking part in education training is a good way to achieve the goal. So which role should institutions play in education becomes an essential social problem. Some people believe that education institutions should take a responsibility to dissuade students from pursuing fields of study in which they are unlikely to succeed. It may be somewhat rational in this statement, but I have a distinct opinion.

First of all, how can education institutions determine a student's future success in a certain field. For instance, many high schools now offer liberal arts and science to their students. So some people may argue that institutions can give advises to students according to their current performance in courses. If a student currently didn't perform well in a certain field, he/she is not likely to actualize career goal in this field in the long run. This argument may be too arbitrary. In an early age, some students may not perform well enough in certain fields because they did not put much effort in their studies. Moreover, maybe they can’t get adapt to new things as fast as is required. However, past is past. Old bad records have nothing to do with the future's success. The famous artist, Vinci is served as a good example. He had been told to draw eggs since childhood. So hard as he tried, he can't draw any egg as good as his fellows. But he didn’t give up. Through his great endeavor, he eventually became one of the greatest artists in the world. If education institutions suggested Vinci to give up painting, we may not be able to enjoy so many good paints today.

Another example, when I was in my first year in college, I faced the situation to choose my major. As I did not perform well in computer programming, I was suggested by my mentor not to choose computer science.

So I consisted in choosing it as my major. Now, with much practice, I perform well in programming. More importantly, I feel very happy and motivated.

So, as far as I am concerned, it is not advisable for education institutions to give students advises like that. Instead, institutions should provide students with flexible environment, where students are able to try different fields as they like, thus enabling them to find the fields they are really interested in.
