我爲什麼上大學？Why I Go to College?
當我還是個小女孩的時候，我就一直想要讀大學。現在，我已經是一名重點大學的新生了。我曾經問過我自己同樣的問題很多遍：爲什麼我要上大學？你也許會說：你讀大學只是爲了找一份好工作。我讀大學只是爲了不僅僅是因爲這個原因，還有其他原因。
The major reason is that I need to further my education and know More about the outside world. In high school, I was always feeling not enough to get knowledge from the textbooks and I didn’t have enough time to travel to see the outside world. But in the college, I have abundant time to read the books I’m interested in and travel to different places to broaden my horizon.
讀大學的主要原因是我需要繼續深造並更多的瞭解外面的世界。在高中，我總是感覺是學習課本上的知識遠遠不夠，而且我也沒有很多的時候去旅遊。但是在大學，我擁有足夠多的時間去閱讀我自己喜歡的書，去不同的地方旅遊以此開闊我的眼界。
Moreover, college is such an ideal place to make new friends who come from different places and I can learn about the different culture. As I am a typically southerner, I find there are many differences between north and south after I come to college, such as the way they talk, and the food they used to eat. Before I went to college, I admit I never pay attention to these. And I don’t want to be a person with a tunnel vision; I want to make more friends during the four years.
除此之外，大學是一個可以結交來自五湖四海的朋友的好地方。我還可以瞭解不同的背景文化。作爲一個典型的南方人，來到大學之後，我發現南北之間有很多不同。比如說話的方式、平常喜歡吃的東西。在沒上大學之前，我可是從來沒有注意到這些。我也不願意成爲目光短淺的人，我要在大學四年認識更多的朋友。
Last but not least, staying the university can give me enough time to prepare when I step into the society, I can do some part-time job and get myself ready. With the working experience and degree, I can find an ideal job. I know it is going to be harder when I graduate from college, but I’m not afraid. I’ll spare no efforts to make my dream come true.
最後，讀大學讓我有更多的時間來爲進入社會做準備。我可以做些兼職爲將來做打算。有了工作經驗和學位證，我就能找到一份理想的工作。我知道未來的路會更艱辛，但是我不怕。我會不予餘力的努力實現我的夢想。
I really enjoy the life in college. And I will learn experience and challenge myself in this four year and be a better man.
我很享受我的大學生活。在這大學的四年中，我會努力去學習、去體驗、去挑戰自我，成爲一個更好的人。
