我為何選擇上大學(xué)-Why I Chose to Attend College?
Why I Chose to Attend College?
As my high school years were drawing to a close, I turned over and over again in my mind the question of whether I should go to college. At times I did have some doubts. After careful consideration, however, I finally decided it was worthwhile to attend college.
Firstly, because I was always hungry for knowledge and keen on learning. While in high school, I became more and more interested in such subjects as math, physics, and chemistry. I longed to explore much further into those areas.
Secondly, because I knew a college education would provide me with opportunities for all round development. I would play in musical groups, take part in sports, and join campus organizations. Involvement in various kinds of activities could help make me a well rounded person.
Finally, I was aware that in today＇s world many professions require years of specialized trainning. Without a college education, it would be difficult for me to obtain a desirable position.
Now I＇m here at college and I seem to have more reasons to congratulate myself on my right decision.
[點評]
這篇原因 結(jié)果式文章向我們列舉了三條選擇上大學(xué)的理由，非常有道理。在結(jié)尾段作者慶幸自己所做的決定是正確的，與首段遙相呼應(yīng)。

我為何選擇上大學(xué)?
在我的中學(xué)生涯即將結(jié)束的時候，我對是否去上大學(xué)這個問題思來想去。有一陣，我確實有些疑惑。但是經(jīng)過認真的考慮，我最終決定上大學(xué)還是值得的。
首先，因為我一直渴慕知識，樂于學(xué)習(xí)。在中學(xué)時，我對數(shù)學(xué)、物理、化學(xué)等學(xué)科越來越感興趣。我渴望在這些領(lǐng)域方面做進一步的探索。
其次，因為我知道大學(xué)教育會為我提供全方位發(fā)展的機會。我可以加入樂隊，參加運動項目，進入校園各種團體。介入各種活動會使我全面發(fā)展。
最后，我很清楚，在今天的社會上，許多職業(yè)都要求有多年的專業(yè)培訓(xùn)知識。不具備大學(xué)學(xué)歷，要找一份稱心如意的工作會是很困難的。
現(xiàn)在我上了大學(xué)。我似乎有更多的理由慶幸我做出了正確的選擇。
