政府类真题

【All education, primary, secondary and further education, should be free to all people and paid for by the government. Do you agree or disagree with this statement?】


童鞋们学习愉快喵~O(∩_∩)O~

Further education is different. In an ideal world this should be free but governments have a lot of demands on their money. I think that students should have to pay, maybe not all, but at least a contribution towards their tuition fees. They will be able to earn it back once they have graduated. The UK has this system whereas in the US students have to pay all their high tuition fees which can run into the tens of thousands of dollars over a full course. I am not sure if I agree with this but it certainly would make sure that students make the best of efforts to pass or all their money would be wasted. Therefore I conclude that primary and secondary education should be freely available for all if possible but that further education should not necessarily be completely free.
然后，进一步的高等教育就不是这个情况了。当然在理想世界里，大学教育也应该是由国家免费提供的，但现实中国家还有很多地方要用钱。我认为对于高等教育学生应该支付一定的费用，也许不需要是全部费用，但至少还是要通过学费做一点个人的贡献。这点学费在他们毕业后很快就会挣回来的。英国的教育系统正是这么做的，而反之在美国，大学生却需要每学期支付上万美元的高额学费。我不清楚这样做是否正确，但无疑这样高额的学费可以刺激学生拼命学习以通过考试，要不然这么多学费就白花了。 所以综上所述，我认为小学和中学的教育应该是尽量免费的，而大学教育就没有必要完全免费了。
