Should college students have a part-time job?
大学生应该做兼职吗?
In our country there are more and more college students undertaking a part-time job or even more than one part-time job.It’s becoming quite common to see students busy running errands after lessons.Some say colleges students are expected to do concentrate on studying,because study is just like their jobs.However I think it’s a good thing for college students to take a part-time job while studying.
Although it is a truth that for a college student,his most important goal must be to learn well and to get a high score in examinations,it surely does not need to be the only target.In fact,college life which consists of only study is not balanced and may cause the student to miss out on other valuable learning experiences.In addition to bringing more balance to a student’s life,part-time work can broaden his social experience.He will have the precious opportunity to meet people from all walks of life and will be faced with a wider variety of problems to solve.Furthermore,work helps a student to develop greater independence,and earning his own pocket money can teach him how to handle his finances.Finally,a part-time job can help a student to develop a greater sense of responsibility and team-work spirit,both for his own work and for that of the team he works with.
For all of these reasons above,I firmly believe that most students would benefit from taking a part-time job while they are at college.Of course,they must be careful not to let it take up too much of their time because study is still their primary responsibility.To sum up,living a balanced life is the best way to be successful.
