2017托福作文范文之大学生专业选择
关于大学专业的选择一直是社会各级人士关注与思考的事情，你怎么看呢?下面，为大家送上一篇2017托福作文范文之大学生专业选择。
Students should choose the major such as science, technology, and engineering which can help them find good jobs instead of the major which they are interested in.
The question of “ what is the most important subject or skill the schools should teach? ” has never failed to attract attention from educators, school administrators and even politicians especially when it comes to subjects like technology, engineering and math. Some argue that students should be encouraged to take such classes rather than the ones they are interested in since they give them a better shot to find jobs. However, personally, I am not in favor of this position based on the following reasons.
Admittedly, it is true that courses like technology, engineering and math are very
technical, most of which can be applied in solving real world issues. However, the exposure that students have to apply these theories are very limited in class. Taking technical oriented classes will not give students a competitive edge to ensure future jobs opportunities, on the other hand, there are enormous benefits for students to take courses that they are interested in.
First off, taking courses that students are interested in can be a great motivation for them to achieve higher goals. Old saying “ interest is the best teacher” remains relevant as it did a century ago. Interest serves as the internal motivation for students to explore in the area that they are interested, on the contrary, if they are forced to take courses for a utilitarian purpose, they might not keep their interest for a long time thus have a lower learning efficiency. Recent study conducted by the Society of Developmental Psychology shows that students will be more enthusiastic and passionate about learning when given the freedom to make their own choices to take classes. Also, giving students the opportunity to choose the classes they are interested in can help them to explore their real interest, thus their potential can be fully tapped before heading off for career options.
Additionally, taking courses students are interested in have enormous practical purposes and they can be a great source of leisure and relaxation. For instance, lots of students like art and music but seldom do they have a chance to learn. Actually, taking art and music classes help to develop creativity and make the students more imaginative. Actually, lots of scientific research in the psychological field shows that early exposure to art and music not only boosts academic achievement but also promotes creativity, self-confidence and school pride. Students who spend more time in learning art and music end up having higher analytical thinking and reasoning skills than those who don’t.
In conclusion, taking courses that students are interested in can be a great motivation for them to achieve higher goals and it can also be a great source of leisure and relaxation.
附：E-rater机器评分阅卷原理
e-rater主要是利用计算机语言学中的自然语言处理(Natural Language Process，简称NLP)方法，对于文本相关信息进行标签匹配，结合ETS的数据库来审核考生的写作质量。打个比方说，你在百度里搜索“新东方”，百度就会出现与“新东方”有关的`词条信息;你跟手机Siri说“设置早上6：30闹钟”，Siri就会帮助你完成闹钟设置，这些就是通过对于你输入或说出的语言进行分析处理，找到相应的匹配信息或动作。
