　　2024.10.19考题(重复2023.7.15上午/2017.4.1/2020.9.19线下考题)

　　Imagine that you have been accepted by two different universities. One is well-known and offers excellent academic programs, but its tuition is expensive, while the other university is less well-known but offers you a scholarship. Which one will you choose?

　　想象一下你被两所不同的大学录取了。一所是知名大学，并且提供出色的学术课程，但学费昂贵，而另一所大学不太知名，但为您提供奖学金。你会选择哪一个?

　　范文一

　　选择知名大学

　　思路解析：我们可以通过“谈论利弊”的角度给出理由，展开话题，也就是谈论某种做法的“利(好处)”以及另一种做法或不这么做的“弊(坏处)”。

　　理由一：知名大学有更好的教学资源，对长远的学习更有益。

　　理由二：好的教育背景更利于就业，因为公司普遍非常关注大家的学术背景。

　　From my perspective, I would definitely choose a well-known university even though the tuition is expensive.

　　First and most important, a prestigious university tends to have better educational resources, which can be beneficial to my study in the long run. For example, to my knowledge, world-famous universities like Harvard and MIT have the best facilities like labs in the world, so both professors and students can do more research and experiments and achieve more.

　　In addition, attending a well-known university means that I can have a better educational background, which will help me stand out in the job market because almost all companies prioritize our educational background when recruiting new employees.

　　范文二

　　选择知名大学

　　思路解析：我们仍然可以通过“谈论利弊”的角度给出一个理由，展开话题;此外，我们可以通过“消除担忧/给出方案”的角度，谈论一下如何应对潜在的问题。

　　理由一：知名大学有更好的教学资源，对长远的学习更有益，且好的背景更容易找到工作。

　　理由二：关于学费贵的问题，我可以寻求父母帮助，此外做一些兼职挣钱补贴日常开销

　　I think it makes more sense for me to choose a well-known university even though it’s more expensive.

　　The reason is that, with doubt, we can have access to better educational resources in a prestigious university, which will definitely benefit our long-term study. For example, in world-famous universities like Harvard and MIT, there are bigger libraries and more advanced labs.

　　Also, the educational background from a well-known university can help me to stand out in the job market. I mean, the better your educational background is, the better jobs you are going to get.

　　As for the expensive tuition, I think I can ask my parents for help and do a part-time job to earn money to cover my daily expense.

　　范文三

　　选择不那么知名的学校

　　理由一：奖学金意味着我可以不用担心经济压力，可以专注于学习

　　理由二：个人努力同样可以让我们成功

　　As for me, I would choose the less well-known university.

　　To begin with, with the scholarship the university offers, I don’t need to worry about the tuition. You know, I wasn’t born with a silver spoon in my mouth, so if I’m not under the financial burden, then I can totally focus on my academic study. However, if the tuition is expensive, I may feel anxious and have to do a part-time job to cover my daily expense, which will definitely take up lots of my time.

　　Also, even though such a university may not provide as good educational resources as a prestigious university does, I still believe I can succeed, because I believe in diligence. I think hard work can help me succeed academically.

　　financial burden n.经济负担

　　take up v.占据

　　diligence /ˈdɪlɪdʒəns/ n.勤奋
