参考范文：My View on Major Ranking
In recent years, it is very popular to rank majors. Major ranking lists based on a variety of criteria can be found on some educational websites or newspapers. These lists have great influence on students and many of them have come to rely on these lists to make their major-choice decisions.
To this phenomenon, people's opinions vary from each other. Some think that the results of the ranking are helpful for high school students to choose a major field of study, e.g., some lists tell people what majors will lead to decent jobs after graduation. Some people, however, believe that many lists are actually useless. Rankings are only about numbers and they do not tell you anything about the distinct nature of the major. Besides, some majors may be listed as hot majors when students enter colleges, but will be unpopular when they graduate.
As far as I'm concerned, we should not over-stress major ranking. It should be remembered that rankings can play a big role in the selection of a major but it should not be the only criterion. Many factors including your own perception of the major should matter in your final choice.

My View on Spending Craze During Graduatio
In recent years, there is a growing concern for the spending craze during graduation. Thefarewell dinners, which once symbolized a celebration of the four-year friendship and the bitterness of pending departure, pose a gigantic financial burden on the graduates.
A number of factors can account for such phenomenon, but the following might be the critical ones. Firstly, it's an undeniable truth that today's college students tend to spend much more money than before. What's more, the farewell dinners are held in the name of more and more social groups, such as classes, college societies, dormitories and etc.
In my view, the problem mentioned above has become increasingly severe, so great concern is deserved and effective measures are called for. To begin with, it is essential that the school should attach more importance to teaching the concept of thrift. Secondly, students should enhance their awareness that money never stands for affection. Only with these measures taken, I'm convinced, can the craze of spending during graduation be eased.
College Students Job-Hunting
1. 近几年出现了大学生就业难的现象
2. 产生这种现象的原因
3. 如何解决这一问题
参考范文：
In recent years, college students find it increasingly difficult to get a job. It sounds strange since young college students are usually intelligent, well-educated phenomenon, aspirant and eager to bring their talent into full play. Then what underlies the strange phenomenon?
There are several reasons for this. To begin with, nowadays college students aim too high. All they want are "good" jobs which could offer good salary, comfortable working conditions, high social status among others. Consequently, most college students are unwilling to accept vacant jobs they consider not "good" enough. Another reason is that there is a big gap between the majors some students study in school and the demands of vacant jobs. So companies think some students are not fit for the jobs.
Solution to the problem requires efforts on both the society and the students. The companies should value the students, talent and knowledge while the latter should not merely aim at material gains. They should be down-to–earth in building up their career. Furthermore, they should face their weak points so as to improve themselves and be more competent.
当今社会不再局限于“我是员工，你是老板”这种一成不变的关系，如果高兴，我也可以做老板，自己开公司，自己创业。自主创业也许看似收益满满，但确是需要承担一定的责任和风险，也是相当辛苦的。
作文题目：
Self employment
参考范文：
Self employment could bring many advantages. One of the advantages of being self-employed is that the profit the business makes belongs to the owner. If the self-employed person succeeds in business, he has the chance to earn a great deal of money. The profit earned is the reward for the owner's effort, ability and creativity. Thus, a second advantage is that a person's intelligence and abilities have a direct effect on the earnings. A third advantage of being self-employed is that a person can control his working hours. While not all self-employed people are completely free, most of them have more control over this area than the salaried people.
However, being self-employed is not without problems. First, being one's own boss places the responsibility directly on that individual shoulders. Everyone has some weaknesses in a certain aspects. These weaknesses will affect how successful a self-employed person is. Second, though the self-employed can earn considerable profits with a successful business, losses can force them out of business and sometimes, place them in debt. A third disadvantage concerns income security. Self-employed people have no guaranteed wage. Their earnings can vary greatly, depending on business conditions. Salaried people, however, can generally count on continued earnings.
In addition, salaried people often enjoy fringe benefits that mean greater peace of mind. One of these benefits may be insurance paid for by the employer that continues the employee's salary in the event of sickness or accident while many self-employed people do not have such protection.
1. 职业的选择很重要
2. 如何明智的选择自己的职业
3. 你的职业选择。
Every individual faces the problem of choosing an occupation after graduating from university, which is of great importance in one's whole life. An appropriate occupation makes a man work with vigor and zest. Besides, it is beneficial for both the individual and the country。
To make an advisable choice, a graduate should take into account at least two aspects, namely, individual' interest and the demand of the society. Only when the two aspects are connected, can a man show his ability and talent to the best advantage. If the two factors conflict, the former, in most cases, should give way to the latter, for it is interests that stimulate one's vigor and potentials。
In regard to my choice in the future, I want to work as an interpreter. I am keen on learning foreign languages, English in particular. Moreover, in the contemporary society, international exchange in economy and culture has been growing significantly. However, competent interpreters are far from enough. So I am determined to be a qualified interpreter。(169)
What I Choose to Do upon Graduation
Upon graduating from the university, every student is faced with a big, practical problem, that is, to make a choice for his/her future career. However, the choice varies from pe rson to person. Some students want to find jobs in joint ventures, desiring to earn more money. Many are preparing for entering the gr aduate school, so they work hard to pass the entrance examination. Also, there are unambitious ones who are indifferent to the choice of career and think that any kind of job will satisfy their desire. Only a small number of students are at a loss what to choose. As to me, I am determined to further my studies abroad and I am fully supported by my parents.
I have many reasons for my choice. T he fundamental one is that in a developed country I can enrich my mind with most advanced profes sional knowledge in my speciality. I believe that the more I learn, the better equipped I will be with modern knowledge, and the more probably I will succeed in my pursuit. Some people suggest that I work while studying. Well, that might be a good idea. However, I would like to see more of the world when I am young, and I think three or four years' study will undoubtedly benefit my whole life. In addition, I am sure that I will certainly have more opportunities to get a satisfactory job in future with the profound knowledge I learn in graduate school abroad.

Nowadays, the employment of college students is becoming more and more of a problem. About a decade ago, university students could find satisfactory and enviable jobs after graduation, while at current situation, about 30% of graduate students can't find a job but stay at home after graduation.
Employment difficulty of college students is due to the following reasons. Among these, the increasing recruitment of colleges and universities plays a vital role. In addition, many colleges and universities fail to adapt their courses to the development of economy.
Considering such a rough job market, I think it is high time that we took effective measures to solve the problem. Above all, college students should realize their own defects and further improve themselves to keep their competitive edge in society. Moreover, colleges or universities should provide more trainings and internship opportunities before the students enter the society. Besides, college students should hold a right attitude towards jobs and set their job expectations at a suitable level. Only through these ways can the college students find a satisfactory job and have a brighter future.

Should College Graduates Start Their Own Business?
With the competition in the job market becoming increasingly fierce for college graduates, some ambitious students have tried their hands at launching their own businesses. Over the years, there have been many successful cases of student entrepreneurship and such attempts should be encouraged and promoted by both the universities and the society at large.
College students who start businesses are pioneers, among whom will be born China's future business leaders. Faced with unknown challenges, they are audacious enough to embark on a perilous journey while most of their peers enjoy stable salaries by working as white-collars at high-end office buildings. Nevertheless, they are the masters of their own destiny and, exposed to many more uncertainties and setbacks, they develop perseverance, stamina and the indomitable spirit that are indispensible to all the great entrepreneurs. Even if they fail, they are not down; they keep exploring for new business opportunities and work tirelessly until they succeed. As people of vision, of individual initiative, of leadership, and of creativity and innovation, they represent the future and the hope of a nation.
Not all college graduates are suitable for undertaking entrepreneurial projects. To launch a business, one needs to have a sound business idea, a viable business plan, the charisma to create a cohesive team where members make concerted efforts for a common objective, effective managerial skills, and above all, the courage to compete against powerful rivals and ultimately to prevail. The essential difference between the students who become civic servants in government organizations or employees at leading domestic or multinational companies and those who create their own businesses is that the former are docile followers whereas the latter are aggressive trailblazers. For this reason, business-launching college graduates are more admirable, and thus they command our deep respect.

大学毕业生应否自己创业
对于大学毕业生来说，随着就业市场上的竞争日趋白热化，某些雄心勃勃的学生已开始尝试着去自己创业。在过去几年中，已出现了诸多学生创业的成功案例，因此，此类尝试理应获得学校和整个社会的鼓励与推动。
那些自己进行创业的大学生可被视为先驱，在他们之中，将会诞生中国未来的商界领袖。尽管面对着许多未知的挑战，他们仍无所畏惧地踏上一条充斥着艰难险阻的征程。与此形成对比的是，他们的大多数同龄人却作为白领，在高端写字楼里上班，拿着稳定的薪水。但是，创业的学生才是其命运真正的主人。由于接触到更多的不确定性与挫折，他们形成了锲而不舍、坚忍不拔、顽强不屈的精神，所有这些品质都是杰出企业家所不可或缺的。即使他们失败，他们不会垮掉，他们会不断探索，寻找新的商机，不知疲倦地努力，直至成功。作为一个具有远见卓识、个人进取性、领导力、创造力和创新精神的群体，他们代表着一个国家的未来与希望。 并非所有的大学毕业生都适合去从事创业项目。要想创业，必须要有一个好的商业点子，一个可行的商业规划，非凡的个人魅力以形成一个有凝聚力的团队，使团队成员们步调一致地去奋力实现共同的目标，以及有效的管理才华； 尤其是，需要有敢于与最强劲对手展开竞争、并最终取得胜利的勇气。那些成为政府机构里的公务员的学生，或者那些成为本土大企业或跨国公司的雇员的学生，与那些自己进行创业的学生相比，最本质的差别在于，前者是温顺的追随者，而后者则是奋发进取的探路者。正是基于这一原因，创业的大学毕业生们更令人钦佩，也因而赢得了我们深深的敬意。

Landing a Job Related to the Major or Not

【精彩范文】
Landing a Job Related to One's Major or Not
That every college graduate lands a job perfectly geared to his major depends on a series of prerequisite conditions—that there are sufficient job opportunities, every graduate loves his major, the pay is satisfactory, and the location of the workplace is ideal, etc.
All those conditions render a perfect match between one's specialty and one's job a mere wish. In reality, such correspondence is possible only for a few fortunate students. For most students, some of whom cannot even find a job, they should be prepared for jobs only partially or even tangentially related to their major.
As a matter of fact, college education does not seek to produce students who only engage in careers based on their major. More and more universities now emphasize foundational and interdisciplinary education to develop broad-caliber students capable of coping with diverse challenges in a rapidly changing world. An important function of university education is just to expand students' intellectual capacity and enhance their emotional maturity. Students must realize that studying a particular major does not automatically guarantee a ready career in that major.
Of course, students embarking on graduate studies should pursue careers related to their major. A student prepared to spend two or three years on a Master's program and another three or five years on a Ph.D. program must have an intense and genuine interest in a particular subject. The failure to work in a related field would be a huge waste of the time and energy, and of the in-depth knowledge acquired.
In seeking a job, a student should opt for the job that accords with his interest and allows him to best exploit his talents. One's career success depends not necessarily on one's specialized knowledge, but on how one updates the existing knowledge and fits into a new environment.

工作是否应与专业相匹配
每个大学毕业生要找到与其专业完全契合的工作，这取决于一系列先决条件：工作机会足够的多，每个毕业生热爱其专业，薪酬令人满意，工作单位的地理位置也甚为理想……
所有这些条件，使工作与专业之间的完美匹配成为一种奢望。在现实中，这种对应只可能出现在为数不多的幸运儿身上。对于大多数甚至连工作都难于找到的学生来说，他们必须准备着去接受那些与其专业只是部分相关、甚至几乎毫不相关的工作。
事实上，大学教育所试图培养的学生，并非仅限于去从事那些基于其专业的工作。现在，越来越多的大学注重基础性教育或交叉学科教育，就是为了培养宽口径的学生，能够应对一个快速变化的社会中不尽相同的挑战。大学教育的一个重要功能是，拓展学生的智力，提高其情感成熟度。学生们应该意识到，从事某个专业的学习，并不自然而然地保证该专业领域中有一个现成的职业在等待着你。
当然，进行研究生学习的学生，应尽量去从事与其专业相关的职业。一个愿意花上二至三年去攻读硕士学位，再花上三至五年去攻读博士学位的学生，必定对某一特定科目有着强烈而诚挚的兴趣。不去从事相关领域中的工作，这是对其青春年华、精力、以及业已获得的深厚学识的一阵巨大浪费。
在寻找工作的过程中，学生应选择那种既合乎其兴趣、又能最充分地使其发挥才华的工作。一个人职业生涯的成功，并非必定取决于其专业知识，而是取决于他如何去更新现有知识，并适应一个全新的环境。

One Student Is Just Like a Flower
一人一朵花
My dear Mr. and Misses, my fellows schoolmates,
Good morning! As you know and see, it is a sunny bump harvest season. In the city, in our school campus, everywhere is surrounded with roses which we together planted 4 years ago. Today may these roses and our friendship as well be together and comfort our excited hearts!
It was four years ago that everyone of us came from every part of China and formed a new collective. As we are young, it's very easy for us to communicate. It was in the past four years that we were ambitious. It was in the past four years that we worried. It was in the past four years that we were content. It was in the past four years that we were vexed. It was in the past four years that we were friendly and lonely ... and it was in the past fours that we studied, lived and respected each other with genuine and with our ambitions. Nothing in the world is more significant than we miss all of these.
We miss you─teachers who are tireless in teaching; we will keep your gestures and your white hairs in our hearts deeply; we will miss the quietness with the lights at night in the classroom; we will miss the race and exercise on the playground; we will miss even the crowds in the dining hall and the quarrel on the beds; we will still miss every green piece and every piece of waste paper flying like flakes in the air ... However, today we will leave nothing but the first rose with our Alma Mater and our teachers which is entrusted with our love and respect.
4 years seems very long but 4 years seems very short. From now on, we all will go into the society. The society is broad and wide for us. We will shoulder heavy responsibilities; we will work diligently; and we will expect to be informed of good news from one another. Now, I beg you all to cherish the occasion; to remember the names, the status, appearance and the character of the person around you. Now let's be hand in hand together; let's present the rose to each other. May the rose carry our appreciation and blessing! We are very closely linked no matter what the world may be. May the fresh rose in our hands keep its fragrants!
Thank you all again!
学友们：
大家都瞧见了，这是一个阳光灿烂的收获季节。在这座城市，在我们的校园，到处都是玫瑰朵朵，这是4年前我们共同栽培的。今天，就让鲜花和友情聚拢，安抚我们激动不已的心吧!
4年前，大家从天南海北来到这里，组成了一个新的集体。年轻的心是最容易相通的，尽管4年中有追求有失落，有得意有烦恼，有欢乐有忧虑，有友爱有孤寂......但我们都曾怀着真诚而美好的初衷去学习、生活、相爱，没有什么比这些更有意义，更令我们怀念。
我们怀念每一位诲人不倦的老师，你们的手势或白发会刻在我们的记忆中;怀念教室里的静夜苦读，运动场上的奔跑跳跃，甚至食堂里的拥挤和高低床上的争论; 怀念每一块绿地和每一片风中飘零的废纸......今天，我们没有更好的礼物留下，这第一朵玫瑰，就献给我们的母校和老师，她寄托着大家的热爱和敬意!
4年很久，4年也很匆匆。以后的日子，大家又要飞，天高地阔，任重道远，我们将在躬身的劳作中和奉献中等候着彼此的好消息。现在，请珍惜和永远记住这一 时刻，记住你左边和右边的任何一个人吧，记住他(她)们的姓名、仪表和特点，请让我们彼此握手，彼此赠佩一朵玫瑰，让她表达我们的感谢和祝福。不管地老天 荒，我们彼此息息相关，我们的手指上永远保留着赠人鲜花的芳香!
谢谢大家!
