对在校大学生打工的看法
In
some
countries,
teenagers
have
jobs
while
they
are
still
students.
Do you think this is a
good idea? Support your opinion by using specific
reasons and details.
In many countries it is common for teenagers to take part-time jobs
while
they are still in high school, while in other
societies this is
virtually unheard of.
In the latter situation, students are expected to
spend all of their time on their
studies and consider schoolwork their
In
my
opinion,
students
benefit
more
from
a
more
balanced
lifestyle,
which may include
working at a part-time job. Therefore, I believe
that
it is a good idea for students to
work while studying.
While
it
is
true
that
a
student's
most
important
goal
must
be
to
learn
and to do well
at his studies, it does not need to be the only
goal. In
fact, a life which consists of
only study is not balanced and may cause
the student to miss out on other
valuable learning experiences. In
addition
to
bringing
more
balance
to
a
student's
life,
part-time
work
can
broaden his
range of experience. He will have the opportunity
to meet
people from all walks of life
and will be faced with a wider variety of
problems to solve. Furthermore, work
helps a student to develop greater
independence,
and
earning
his
own
money
can
teach
him
how
to
handle
his finances.
Finally, a part-time job can help a student to
develop a
greater sense of
responsibility, both for his own work and for that
of
the team he works with.
For all of these reasons, I firmly believe that most students would
benefit from taking a part-time job
while they are in high school. Of
course,
they
must
be careful
not
to
let
it
take
up
too
much
of their
time
because study is still their primary
responsibility. In sum, living a
balanced life is the best way to be
successful.

青少年与打工
在许 多国家，
青少年普遍会在高中时期打工。
然而在有些国家，
这几乎 是前
所未闻的。
如果是后者的情况，
那是因为一般认为学 生应把所有的时间花在学业
上，把学业当作是自己的
工作
。我认为，生活方式越均衡，对学生就越好，而
均衡的生
活则须包含打工。所以我认为，在就学期间打工是个不错的想法。
虽然学生最重要的目标的确必须是学习，
而且功课要好，
但这不必是学生惟
一的目标。
事实上，
只重视学 业的生活并不均衡，
这可能会使学生错过其他珍贵
