咎饽俊縄n some countries, teenagers have jobs while they are still students. Do you think this is a good idea? Support your opinion by using specific1 reasons and details.
Teenagers and Part-time Jobs
In many countries it is common for teenagers to take part-time jobs while they are still in high school, while in other societies this is virtually2 unheard of. In the latter situation, students are expected to spend all of their time on their studies and consider schoolwork their job. In my opinion, students benefit3 more from a more balanced lifestyle, which may include working at a part-time job. Therefore, I believe that it is a good idea for students to work while studying.
While it is true that a students most important goal must be to learn and to do well at his studies, it does not need to be the only goal. In fact, a life which consists of only study is not balanced and may cause the student to miss out on other valuable learning4 experiences. In addition to bringing more balance to a students life, part-time work can broaden5 his range of experience. He will have the opportunity to meet people from all walks of life and will be faced with a wider variety of problems to solve. Furthermore6, work helps a student to develop greater independence, and earning his own pocket money can teach him how to handle his finances7. Finally, a part-time job can help a student to develop a greater sense of responsibility8, both for his own work and for that of the team he works9 with.
For all of these reasons, I firmly believe that most students would benefit from taking a part-time job while they are in high school. Of course, they must be careful not to let it take up too much of their time because study is still their primary responsibility. In sum, living a balanced life is the best way to be successful.
青少年与打工
在很多国家,青少年常见会在高中时期打工。然而在有的国家,这几乎是前所未闻的。若是后者的状况,那是由于一般觉得学生应把所有些时间花在学业上,把学业当作是我们的工作。我觉得,生活方法越均衡,对学生就越好,而均衡的生活则须包括打工。所以我觉得,在就学期间打工是个很好的想法。
虽然学生非常重要的目的的确需要是学习,而且功课要好,但这不必是学生惟一的目的。事实上,只看重学业的生活并不均衡,这或许会使学生错过其他珍贵的学习心得。打工除去使生活更均衡外,还可拓展学生的经验。学生可以有机会见识各行各业的人,而且会面临更多各种不一样的问题需要解决。除此之外,工作帮助学生愈加独立,而且自己赚零用钱还可以教会他怎么样处置我们的财务。最后,打工可以帮助学生培养对我们的工作和团队工作更大的责任感。
基于这类理由,我坚决相信,大部分学生在高中时期打工都能获益。当然,他们也需要小心,不要让打工占据太多时间,由于学业仍然是青少年最重要的责任。总之,过均衡的生活才是最好的成功之道。
