2010年雅思写作高分范文:欣赏阅读(10)
Some people think that university should not provide theoretical knowledge,but to give practical training that is beneficial to society.
Do you agree or disagree?
The current hot issues concerning higher education include the one of
whether university should provide theoretical knowledge or practical training.
In my opinion, this issue is closely related to the different aims of different
universities and the needs of the economic development of the respective
country.
As we know, university education gives a student a better appreciation of
such fields as art, literature, history, science, and human relations.
Therefore, it is necessary for the university to provide theoretical
knowledge for those students who intend to receive liberal education.
Most universities also have professional colleges that prepare students for
careers, such as teachers colleges, agricultural or dental colleges.
These colleges, apart from offering some liberal arts courses, usually
allocate a certain period of time for professional training. For example, a
student at teachers college usually takes a field training at a high school as a
student teacher for two or three months.
Another important factor on this issue is the needs of the economic
development of a respective county. For instance, in China, a great number of
advanced professional personnel are needed to keep the pace with the rapid
economic development. Therefore, cooperative education that combines classroom
studies with practical work experience is more appropriate an education China
needs at the present time.
In a word, how much emphasis that should be laid on theoretical knowledge
or practical training is determined by the needs of the economy of a respective
country and the needs of all-round personnel for a democratic society. (250
