大学教育的目标TheGoalofUniversityEducation

The Goal of University Education

Nowadays most people go to university not only to learn new knowledge but to get a degree.
Many of them no longer care about what they really learn in university, they care more about whether they will get the degree or not.
They regard the degree as a golden key to a better jobs or higher salaries.
For them, nothing is more important than a degree in university.
In my point of view, I cannot agree to this idea.

现在大多数人上大学不是为了学习新的知识，而是为了要得到学位。大多人都不再关心他们在大学真正学到什么，他们关心的是是否能得到学位。他们把学位作为找到更好工作或获得更高薪水的金钥匙。对他们来说，没有什么比大学学位更重要。在我看来，我不同意这个观点。

In the first place, degree is nothing but a paper that can prove you have finished your courses.
Most students don’t realize what helps them to find a good job is what they really learn from university, the professional course, and the social skills and so on.
In addition, having certificates is more important than having a degree.
For instance, if you are looking for a translation job, you certainly need a CET-4 or CET-6 certificate.
if you want to be a high school teacher, you need more certificate to prove yourself that you are fit for this job, such as TEM-8 and teacher certificate which is not a degree can show your abilities.

首先，学历只不过是一张证明你已经完成学业的纸而已。大多数 并没意识到真正能帮助他们找到一份好工作的是他们在大学里真正学到的东西，比如专业课，社会技能等。此外，证书比学位证书更重要。例如，如果您正在寻找一份翻译的工作，你一定 一个大学英语四或六级的证书。如果你想成为一名 教师，你需要更多的证书来证明你 适合这份工作，如英语专业八级证书和教师资格证书，这虽然不是学位却能显示你的能力。

In the second place, having a good personal relationship is much nicer than having a degree.
In the social net, you have more friends means you have more choices.
For example, many students do not choose the right major in university because their parents chose for them, so that they may not work hard.
In that case, this kind of students should spend more time to learn what they are really interested in and make more friends.
It’s much better than they spend the whole time to learn the major which they don’t like at all.

第二，有一个良好的 比 学位要好得多。在社交网站上，你拥有更多的 意味着你有更多的 。例如，许多学生没有选择恰当的大学主要是因为他们的 为他们做了选择，以至于他们可能不 学习。在这种情况下，这类学生应该花更多的 去学习自己真正 趣的东西，交更多的朋友。这样比他们把全部时间花在他们不感兴趣的专业上要好得多。

To sum up, students should not care too much about their degree, and they should focus on what is truly needed for their future life.
The goal of university education is not just to get a degree, but the really useful knowledge and practical experience.

总之，学生不应该太在意他们的学历，他们应该关注他们未来 真正需要的是什么。大学 的 不仅仅是获得一个学位，而是真正实用的知识和实践 。
