星期一， 我们开了个班会讨论“上大学是高中生唯一的出路吗”这个话题。以下图表是讨论结果。
请根据以上图表数据，写一篇短文，包括以下内容： 1. 增长知识，提高素养(quality), 利于择业； 2. 成功的路不只一条； 3. 学费(tuition)高，就业难； 4. 你的观点及原因。 范文赏析：
On Monday, we had a discussion about whether it is the only way out for senior students to go to college at the class meeting.
60% of us consider it very necessary to go to college because it can help us to improve our knowledge as well as our quality, which will be an advantage to find a good job.
30% of the students hold the view of “all roads lead to Rome”， thinking it doesn’t make any difference whether they will go to college or not.
However, the others confirm they don’t go to college for its high tuition and it is hard for college graduates to find jobs.
In my opinion, we can receive a better education at college so that we can make greater contributions in the future. 【问题思考】
