【参考范文】
Whether to Atte nd a Vocatio nal College or a Uni versity?
It ' s an undisputable truth that virtually all high school graduates will encoun ter the choices betwee n a vocati onal college and a uni versity. And whe n it comes to this question, students ' ideas are not cut from the same cloth. In point of which to choose and what to be taken into consideration, my advices are as follow.
In the first place, we should be conscious of the fact that both of the two choices have its own superiorities. For instanee, a vocational college specializes in cultivating humanresources with practical capabilities; while a university serves as the cradle of academic researchers in different fields. Then it does follow that high school graduates should have a clear picture of themselves. That is to say, they should know their merits and demerits and their choices must give play to their stre ngths whilst circumve nt weak nesses. In additi on, in terest is the best teacher and it ' s also the premise of learning on one' s own initiative.
Thus interest
must
be taken into account because it can not only decide how far one can reach academically and professi on ally but also how happy and fulfilled one will be.
In brief, all above just goes to show that there really is no one-size-fits-all answer for the
question. The key lies in a clear cognition, accurate self-positioning and the in terest of on eself. Only the n can every one find a right path that works best for us.
