英语作文-高考 请简要阐述为什么学生们渴望上大学

英语作文

Students long to attend colleges or universities for various reasons. In my opinion, the most common reasons are to prepare for a career, to have new experiences and learn to be independent.

Career preparation is becoming more and more important to young people. For many, this is the primary reason to go to college. They know that the job market is competitive¹ and in order to be employed in the future they have to be well equipped² with knowledge and skills.

Also, students go to colleges or universities to have experiences and learn to live on their own. Going to colleges often means³ having the opportunity to meet with different people from different parts of the country. They learn to communicate and co-operate with each other. For most students, we guess, it is the first time that they have been away from home. They are faced with many new situations and have to learn to solve them independently, making decisions on their own and dealing⁴ with various things themselves. So colleges and universities help them grow up.

Surely⁵, colleges and universities become their first choice.
