第一篇作文 (修改後)

Why do you think people attend college or university?

In my opinion, there are three main reasons that people attend college or university. First, college is a place where people can feel free to make their dream come true. Because we have experienced cramming style education from elementary school to high school, it’s amazing that we can choose what we want to lean in college. For example, we can select classes by ourselves; join clubs which we interest in and host activities with friends who have the same dream.

Secondly, college is a place where we will become independent. We may have gone to a nearby elementary school, junior high school even high school for our earlier education, but may attend a college far away from our home. We have to learn things like “how to negotiate with a landlord when we want to rent a room” or “how to prepare a meal by ourselves”. Such knowledge can help us be well prepared for the future.

Thirdly, college degrees are becoming more common in Taiwan. There is a saying, “If a shop sign fall downs and hits three people, there are one Ph.D. and two master students”. We may not want to attend college but must to attend anyway, because that is the trend. Maybe everyone attends college for different reasons but I believe everyone will benefit more than they expect.
