2014年3月16日托福作文独立写作【范文一】
In the modern society, education that directly influences the quality of people's life becomes more and more important to people no matter they are old or young. What's your opinion of education today? A hot and important controversy centering on the issue concerns whether people are easier to become educated today than in the past. A fair proportion of people oppose that, other people, nevertheless, advocate that. As far as I'm concerned, I side with the latter for the following reasons.
First, mentioning the learning resources, everyone could say that there are countless resources for people nowadays to obtain knowledge without any doubt. These resources, including education organizations and Internet, provide people with the opportunity to become educated efficiently. For example, I was writing my homework one day and came across the concept of inflation which I don't understand. Immediately, I opened my computer, connected to the Internet, input the word "inflation" into computer, and googled it. As a result, I got not only the interpretation of the concept, but also elaborated examples and information relating to "inflation". Internet makes me improve my learning efficiency because I don't have to look up books or bother my professors when meeting some puzzles. Another example is that lots of education organizations such as New Oriental help us to be educated whenever we need in our life.
Second, facing the society full of competition, we need to catch up with other people and even to create advantages to surpass others. Many people are forced to acquire necessary certificates, such as English certificate and computer certificate, resulting from the entering requirement of many jobs. Even after getting a job, people still have to accept many kinds of training offered by companies or by themselves. In a word, people are driven to be educated because of stress from the society. For example, my classmates in the university are all learning hard in order to improve their competitive power and to find satisfied jobs after graduating from university. One of my roommates wants to work in a research institution. After she learns how difficult to enter such an institution, she reads professional books in the library every day and writes paper, just hoping to realize her dream. Under such a society full of big competition and stress, people find that they obtain knowledge unconsciously.
However, in some certain situations, there are still some advantages and conveniences for people living in the past to be educated. Learning in some special fields, such as nature, people could observe and do experiments more easily in the neighborhood that isn't influenced so much by human interruption. For instance, people are able to study birds or insects just walking outside directly without having to drive a long distance. A better environment saves them much time to be educated.
