Answer 1

Dear editor,
According to a recent news report, in Chongqing City, there are a great number of students who abandoned opportunities to receive further education in college. This is the so-called the idea of uselessness of study. Recently we have had a heated discussion about the phenomenon in our class.
After discussion, we all think there are several factors accounting for this phenomenon. Firstly, in modern society, college education is a huge expense for average families. Thus, many cannot afford the expense. What is more, the knowledge acquired in college is not so closely related to students’ future career. Finally, even completing college education, due to the severe competition in job-markets, hardly can a graduate find a satisfying job. Therefore, many students prefer to join in the workforce rather than attend college.
As far as I am concerned, the idea of uselessness of study is wrong and misleading. It is knowledge that enables one to succeed in job-hunting. To solve this problem, on the one hand, government should take measures to remove this horrible thought. On the other hand, it is advisable for colleges to reduce the expense of education, and to give both theoretical and practical knowledge to students.
Yours,
Li Hua
