Should the University Campus Be Open to Tourists?
1．校园是否应对游客开放，人们看法不同。你的观点； 2．阐述你的理由； 3．结论，重申观点。
With the development of tourism, the campuses of many famous universities in China are open to the tourists. People have different opinions about it.
Some people think that the tourists’ visit to the campus will make it harder for students to study. Worse still, it may cause some safety problems. However, others think that it can bring students and the society
closer and is good for cultural exchange between people.
In my opinion, several factors should be considered before opening the campuses to tourists. First, I suggest we should choose the universities with long history and beautiful campuses. Second, the campus should only be open to tourists on weekends or during holidays.
